Justin Trudeau’s decision to welsh on his promise

Rabble is using racial slurs now?

It doesn't seem likely that they are intentional anti-Welsh bigots. It might be worth getting in touch with them over this so they can know to use better language.

I sent them a message. I'm surprised the writer used such a term and the editor didn't flag it.

I think it got whitewashed a bit. But yeah. I'd expected a bit more from Rabble's editors.
