He also said afterwards that he was wrong. So there’s that.
Yes. That’s the plan.
He says he was wrong, the centrist media says “Well, that’s all fine and good then, he’s certainly prime minister material and no mistake!”.
Meanwhile, the fascist dogwhistle was already blown.
Exactly.
And if you try to call it on that, they go “you’re twisting my words”, without actually ever explaining how their words are twisted.
It happened 15 years ago. Nobody would have even remembered it happening at all if this CPC ad wasn’t posted to remind us.
Why are we allowing political ads, again?
Remembering bigotry is bad, apparently.
I’m sorry, aren’t you one of the “hurr, durr, Trudeau blackface” crowd?

This happened 15 years ago. You have high confidence in people’s memories if you think that the intent was to prime a population that largely were children or no longer with us to push for his PM appointment 15 years later.
So in other words he doesnt like that there was pushback.
He also has said that he doesn’t know where to stand on certain issues to hold political advantage. These people have no principles.
How long afterwards? Shortly, or years down the line when he had to?
June 12th, 2008. The original doesn’t state which day in June he said the remarks originally, but mathematically we can determine the recant was said no more than 12 days later.
Oh, okay. I’ll put my pitchfork away then. A little bit anyway, “lazy 'injuns” was still a shitty thing to say and not promising from a prospective leader, regretted or not.
