Is Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ready to ditch the Laurier Club moniker for the Liberal Party’s exclusive club of top donors? Trudeau didn’t say yes when asked on Monday but he didn’t say no either.
With calls for statues to come down, streets and places to be renamed over the racist history of those people who have been honoured, Trudeau was asked about Laurier’s past.
“Given Prime Minister Laurier’s history with the Chinese head tax, with blocking immigration from India, signing an order-in-council banning black immigration, will you change the name of the Laurier club?” Trudeau was asked.
