Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gave his fellow countrymen a lesson on gender inclusivity in language at a public town hall Friday.
Trudeau took a question about religious nonprofits from a woman affiliated with the World Mission Society Church of God. Canadian regulations place restrictions on volunteering with religious organizations, and the woman asked whether the government could loosen those regulations, as she discussed her church’s theology of God’s maternal love.
"So, that’s why we came here today to ask you, to also look into the policies that religious charitable organizations have in our legislation so that it can also be changed because maternal love is the love that’s going to change the future of mankind—"
"We like to say ‘peoplekind,' not necessarily ‘mankind,' because it’s more inclusive," Trudeau interjected.
The crowd applauded Trudeau's correction, and the questioner expressed appreciation for Trudeau’s commitment to inclusivity.
"We can all learn from each other," Trudeau added.
The Canadian government has been hard at work undoing gendered language in many aspects of its society. Just last week the parliament passed an amendment to the national anthem giving it gender-neutral lyrics, and the government has also issued some gender-neutral identification documents.

Pet peeve of mine when it pertains to the left.
The Canucks that I know are likely laughing out loud at this idiot.
“””””We like to say ‘peoplekind,’ not necessarily ‘mankind,’ because it’s more inclusive,” Trudeau interjected. “””””
Oh sure, they want to include everyone. Unless you are a Republican, a conservative, a Trumper, a gun lover, against abortion...........
He is anti-dictionary.
No such a word as
“peoplekind”.
That leaves out people who “identify” as wombats.
And Carbon Life Form-kind is more inclusive than Peoplekind.
Justin, why do you hate plants and animals?
He will need to include AI in his definition soon... :-(
New Age Douchenozzle.
The word Man (as in Family of Man) still is a synonym for the species, Homo Sapiens, which obviously includes women. That’s also the meaning of the “man” portion of word mankind, so it is not a misnomer that excludes women. Trudeau is a PC-obsessed ass.
How amazing! How many wonderful creatures there are here! Mankind is so beautiful! Oh, brave new world, that has such people in it! .......................
Letting people say mankind is also inclusive. A liberal doesn’t understand that. The most pointless conversation in the world is with people who tell you what you should have said to them.
The guy is a functional moron because of his parent’s drug and alcohol abuse. The perfect person these days to a lead a degenerate Western country.
‘Peoplekind’ Is ‘More Inclusive’ Than ‘Mankind’
But “peoplekind” is not a real word. I support they can force that one on us, too.
Dipshits like this are leading great countries, while Evil stalks the earth.
Obama tried to change Words a Failed big time
Perhaps next time, Canadia can elect a guy
This “man” makes me feel physically ill. This is what real evil looks like folks. It wears nice suits and says what itching ears want to hear
White Privileged Trudeau needs to debate fellow countryman J B Peterson.
