Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is receiving criticism after posting a tweet about Emancipation Day.
“Today, we acknowledge the painful history of slavery in Canada. We also celebrate the strength of Black communities, who fought – and continue to fight – for justice and equality,” Trudeau tweeted.
He added, “Together, let’s keep building a more inclusive Canada. .”
Critics did not react kindly to his tweet.
One user responded, “You are a racist, who implements racist policies, which have a disparate impact on black Canadians. You are a disgraceful, evil, gaslighting tyrant. A stain on our nation.”
Another wrote, “Of all the world leaders. You sir are the most pathetic and petulant of them all. From the comments on this post, it really does seem like the majority of Canadians completely despise you.”
