I’m just sad to see another black man being brought down (It’s not us this time! Suck it, Canada!)

At least three images of Canada’s prime minister, Justin Trudeau, wearing blackface at parties 20 years ago have been found.

“Trudeau came out to apologize for one blackface and ended up admitting to more. He’s like: ‘I did brown face for “Aladdin” and I did blackface when I sang the song “Day-O.” And now if you’ll excuse me, daylight’s coming and me wan’ go home.’” —Trevor Noah

“With the Canadian election just one month away, many are wondering if this blackface scandal is going to hurt Trudeau’s chances of being re-elected. And to be honest, I’m just sad to see another black man being brought down.” —Trevor Noah

“This is pretty bad and I just want to say: It’s not us this time! Suck it, Canada!” —Stephen Colbert

“I’m not going to show you the picture because it’s really bad. It’s so bad that Canadians traveling in Europe are going to start telling people they’re American.” —Seth Meyers

“As a result, Trudeau has been dropped from the cast of ‘Saturday Night Live.’” —Conan O’Brien

"He didn’t need the brown face to make the costume work — he’s in a full Aladdin outfit at an Arabian Nights-themed party. Nobody was gonna see him and be like ‘Huh, white skin — are you the snowman from ‘Frozen?’” —Trevor Noah
