Trudeau takes back peoplekind remark: Stupid joke

The Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau takes back his remark about the word 'mankind' (humanity).

Trudeau, a staunch advocate of gender neutrality and feminist, according to many people, continued his remark. During a meeting in Edmonton last Friday, a student asked him a question in which the word 'mankind' was used. According to Trudeau, however, she could talk better about 'peoplekind'. Many people first thought it was a joke.
