Darkening your face. Regardless of the context of the circumstances is always unacceptable because of the racist history of blackface i should have understood that then. And i never should have done it. If you ever. Direct them ok thank you for fast. To israel a cause that he dont. Care. What we dont have translation now hes speaking in french canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau apologizing again over the controversy of the pictures that show him in blackface a new video emerged earlier this day off trudeau wearing a black face a day after he admitted that such behavior was racist his again said. That this is a racist. And not acceptable he says hes apologized again after photos of 2 similar episodes one when he was a teacher and another a student came to light lets continue to listen. The picture that emerges in the time report was the only time youve done this you left us with the impression there was only one other incident and since then global news has released a video which seems to show that there was at least a 3rd incident so exactly how many times have you darkened your skin with makeup in an act that you have yourself described as racist i share the moments that i recollect it but i recognize that it is something absolutely unacceptable to do and i appreciate calling it makeup but it was blackface and that is just not right it is something that. People who live with the kind of discrimination. That far too many people do because of the cause. Their skin or their history or their origins or their language or their religion. Face on a regular basis and i didnt see that from the layers of privilege that i have and for that i am deeply sorry and i apologise. Ok. Look at that. City next if that you. Live in the day with again translating in french what he just said to the reporter who asked him why there was not just one incident but several in fact of him appearing in black face there were pictures as well as a video of countless Prime Minister wearing blackface makeup he says this is unacceptable its not right. And apologizes again these fault for these photos their sickness and other more incidents because you know people are looking for them and if it came to they were to come forward now with this in their history would you allow them to run for the liberals in this election i think thats a thats a thats a question that. We would look at every step of the way i think examining the case by case situation examining the actions that someone has taken i am certainly conscious that in my political career leader and indeed as Prime Minister weve taken many concrete actions to fight against racism to fight against intolerance to fight against antiblack racism specifically to recognize unconscious bias and systemic discrimination that exists in canada and elsewhere to work to overcome and recognize intersectionality as a people live within it in a way that. So many of us simply cannot understand or appreciate the micro aggressions and the challenges being faced so even though weve moved forward in significant ways as a government what i did the choices i made hurt people hurt people who thought i was an ally i am an ally but. This is something that obviously i deeply regret and i never should have done im more complacent just take a listen to what the 3 times. Larry cushman to take free press. Mr trudeau yesterday you said that you didnt use realize in 2001 that it was wrong but on brown face but now you do realize it is wrong and im wondering when did dawned on you that it is wrong. I think its difficult to become a politician where you spend as much time as you do that working hard to represent people and working hard to getting to know a Community Like the community i have the honor of representing top it up where there is extraordinary diversity extraordinary challenges and yes extraordinary intolerance even in city like montreal in a country like canada that people live with every day and as ive learned. To not just represent people but to fight for them and to try and build a Better Community in a Better Society ive learned every day that it is unacceptable to. You to engage in this sort of behavior when. Called on the. Phone is all the right to for joining us on aljazeera watching a live News Conference from winnipeg off canadas Prime Minister Justin Trudeau his 1st Campaign Appearance since set of scandal broke out over pictures and video of him in blackface just in total apologized on wednesday for the photos and hes again apologized today saying hes deeply sorry and that the choices he made that people hes highlighted also all the work hes done against racism since being in office in spain. And as Prime Minister i remind you that this controversy began when a video and pictures emerged of just into the wearing black face this was when he was a teacher 1st and in another of the pictures he was a student. And his liberal party has been frank said that the video and photos on genuine end date back from the early 1990 s. And 2001 are these revelation the scandal coming as campaigning gets underway in canada for election on october 21st lets continue to listen im wondering if you thought enough about this issue that you volunteered to in the vetting process or did you ever to play or that this had happened i think i never talked about this quite frankly i was embarrassed it was not something that represents the. Person ive become the leader i try to be and it was really embarrassed. That. Was on the. Agenda partly people. Just report for the emotion in the district hes embarrassed. Bathurst by his be the 3rd year. The canadian Prime Minister again reacting and again apologizing for pictures and videos of him in blackface that have come to surface just a few minutes ago that you told us last night on the plane but you were you of all of the different instances that you were called have you since been made aware were remembered of other instances and if so how many. I think it is. Obvious that this is something that. Was deeply regrettable i am. Wary of of being different. Of about this because in the recent pictures that came out i had not remembered and i think the question is how could you not remember that. I didnt understand how hurtful this is to people who live with discrimination every single day. I have always acknowledged that i come from a place of privilege but i now need to acknowledge that comes with a massive blind spot i have dedicated my leadership and my service to canada to try and counter intolerance and racism everywhere i can but this has been a. Personally. Im all aware of how to reflect on the fact that. Wanting to do good and wanting to do better simply isnt good enough and you need to take responsibility for mistakes that hurt people who thought i was an ally who hopefully many of them still consider me an ally even though this was a terrible mistake. A terrible mistake. The Prime Minister of canada Justin Trudeau says he regrets wearing an acceptable black face makeup when he was much younger in the early 2000 this after controversy broke out over a video and pictures of him wearing blackface out of school party this is a 2nd apology from the canadian Prime Minister in as many days this happening right now in winnipeg this News Conference his 1st Campaign Appearance Justin Trudeau since the scandal broke out campaigning underway for the october 21st elections in canada daniel lock is our correspondent in toronto hes been listening in to the Prime Minister dial just into as expected apologizing again question now is will this be enough to quell discord the criticism and the controversy over this. Oh probably not folly at least not anytime soon this was an Election Campaign that didnt have a lot going for it in terms of the issues there was a lot of talk of the personalities of leaders issues were only beginning to be unveiled at 9 days in and now theres nothing else for people to talk about in this campaign be they voters be they politicians commentators journalists but this particular issue why did Justin Trudeau do this why was it kept quiet and is there any way he can move beyond it its a tough question to answer its unprecedented he did put himself forward as a champion of progressive values inclusion antiracism welcoming Syrian Refugees to the country and at the same time he and his party went after conservative Party Candidates who had made controversial comments on social media might be construed as racist or to right wing so he was set up for this by his own rhetoric by his own image and hes really really alone as he apologizes you can hear it you can hear the way he speaks that this is something he is going to have to hold no one else could be blamed for what have been the reaction. In canada. Interesting interesting reactions some communities of color people who speak for them have said we deplore this d weve heard the apologies we think for now we might be the best alternative to the conservative party which has been controversial on these issues in the past urged their communities to keep thinking about how theyre going to vote to not bring in a right wing government but at the same time a lot of fury a lot of anger from people who are just ordinary people people of color who faced racism among them the the n.
