Canadians are blasting Canadian Heritage Minister Steven Guilbeault for an Emancipation Day post that critics say inaccurately portrays the country’s history with slavery.
Guilbeault made the post on Friday.
“Today, we mark Emancipation Day—a time to reflect on the history of slavery & the enduring impacts of anti-Black racism in Canada. People of African descent have been foundational in shaping our identity & in building a stronger, more inclusive country,” Guilbeault wrote on X.
