PM TRUDEAU'S MALIGNING OF CONSTRUCTION WORKERS

   What do you call it when you judge an entire group of people the same way? Stereotyping? Prejudice? Bigotry?
   However you label it, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau managed to malign one whole group in Canada – male construction workers – while speaking at the G20 summit in Argentina.
  While Trudeau participated in a gender equality panel he said: “You might say, “What does a gender lens have to do with building this new highway or this new pipeline?” Well, there are impacts when you bring construction workers into a rural area — there are social impacts because they are mostly male construction workers. How are you adjusting or adapting to those [impacts]?
