Yeah. I just read Trudeau's remark - it sounded manipulative (which I didn't love), mean-spirited (not very nice) and maybe a bit arrogant ... but I didn't get the racist angle. I think that's stretching it a bit. 
Let's imagine Trudeau was actually racist - which I don't believe, BTW - why would he be so interested in reconciliation (not required to get elected) and why would he choose an international magazine to proclaim his racism; nope, I think folks are reaching a bit and, as R77 tells us, an excuse to be "perpetually offended".
