Iffy doesn't get it either

So, Michael Ignatieff has jumped into the fray over Justin Trudeau's gap in judgement having complained over honour killings and other cultural violence against women being called 'barbaric'. And what does Iffy say?

"There's no such thing as an honour killing..."

Really Iffy? No such thing?

I wonder what the Liberals would say if somebody came saying something like... oh, I don't know... there's no such thing as a hate crime?

I imagine if the Conservative Party were to say something like this, they would be crucified by the media for ignoring violence against women. I don't anticipate the Liberals facing as much scrutiny over diminishing the reality of cultural violence against women.

Justin Trudeau says he was employing "responsible neutrality" in his comments. Sorry, Justin, but I have a hard time being neutral in the face of women being killed by their fathers or brothers over not being subservient to their wishes... or women facing genital mutilation... or women being forced into marriage.

And not making it perfectly clear to new Canadians how completely unacceptable such behaviour is is not responsible in any way.
