It was racist. It sounded racist to me because it was singling people out like my parents who came to this country 50 years ago for not wearing a poppy or not caring about what the Canadian armed forces did for our great country.
If he would have said you Canadians need to start buying more poppies nobody would have batted an eye. But that's not what he said. He singled out immigrants.
