Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau suggestion the country’s Conservative Party supports “people who wave swastikas” has resulted a request for an apology.

Trudeau made the comment Wednesday, amid his efforts to resolve the international public relations crisis that is the ‘Freedom Convoy’ truckers protest over his government’s COVID-19 restrictions.

Trudeau’s comment followed Melissa Lantsman, a Conservative Party member in Parliament, questioned the prime minister about his treatment of the protesting truckers and recited a 2015 quote from him in which he said, “If Canadians are going to trust their government, their government needs to trust Canadians.”
