It was unprecedented that an NHL coach got fired for a racist remark, until it happened.

I'm not saying that at all. I've indicated twice in this thread that I would have voted for a Liberal party led by Chrystia Freeland. I didn't vote for Trudeau almost entirely because of blackface. A friend of my sister's was running as the Green candidate in our riding, I voted for him.
Statecraft is not an NHL coaching position. This country looks unconscionably weak if a prime minister has to step down because of costume parties that preceded the man's time in office. Especially when the country next door is having an existential crisis over whether or not a president can be removed for extorting an ally for political gain.
And if more NHL coaches had been caught screaming racist things before now, I assure you they would've been fired then too.
