I'll just chime in that a double standard can only really exist if the situations are the same, which the Cherry/Peters' and Trudeau's aren't. Hell, even the Cherry/Peters things have a lot of differences.

The common denominator is allegations of racist/bigoted behaviour. From there they each significantly branch.

A more appropriate perspective is that they are contextualized approaches, responses, and actions.
