阿尔伯塔省省长肯尼的蝙蝠汤言论被批种族主义

阿尔伯塔省省长肯尼的蝙蝠汤言论被批种族主义。

“谁知道下一个新冠变种是什么？我不知道。” 肯尼在接受一家媒体的年终采访时说：“ 下一个来自武汉的蝙蝠汤会是什么？我不知道。”

Still no apology from Jason Kenney for his racist comments in a newspaper column that ran yesterday.

阿省反对党新民主党党领Rachel Notley在推特中说，肯尼还未就他的种族主义言论道歉。这些言论传播仇恨和恐惧，而阿尔伯塔省省民正处于前所未有地需要团结的时刻。

国会议员、加拿大国际贸易、出口促进、小企业和经济发展部长伍凤仪在推特中说，重复反亚裔的种族主义的言论是不负责任的。

而省长办公室发言人称，肯尼的言论是基于”科学理论“，不是种族主义。
