He was in an extremely racist and offensive video that got posted on Twitter the other day. I'm not going to embed it but you can find it here.

I forgot we had the more current Calgary Politics thread. Sorry Fuzz!

We should lock this one or something.

This one is good for keeping this muck out of the actual municipal politics thread, so maybe still has value?

Video that appears to show Ward 13 Coun. Dan McLean taking part in the racist mocking of Indigenous people has prompted calls for an apology from one of his fellow councillors, but McLean says he doesn’t remember the incident.

"All I can tell you is I saw the video and can honestly say I have zero recollection of that event,” he wrote.

Is that the avenue he's taking? I don't remember therefore it's nothing?

That Chandler/McLean/Denis crew is a real piece of work. Chandler was also on Danielle Smith's campaign team.

What is with that group of people? Cringe cringe cringe.

The only people that seem to be blindsided by these sort of scandals are the people that voted for him in the first place, which sounds obvious because it is.

Seriously he said that. What apology isn't complete without a shot at the Twitterati for using religion and culture to divide us. I had an Indigenous girlfriend once!
