Remember when Canada turned away a boat full of Jewish refugees during WW2 and we had immigration officials saying shit like "None is too many" when it came to accepting Jewish refugees. Remember how we just allowed ourselves to overlook what was happening to the Jews for the sake of racism and political convenience? Or how about all disgusting things that we did to the Aboriginals and First Nations? Trudeau publicly apologized for both but seems ok with the same circumstances happening today.
