Apology and Retraction

On behalf of myself and the Barrhead Leader , I would like to retract the comments made in the column “A conservative dilemma,” which was published online and in the Aug. 14, 2018 edition of the Barrhead Leader .

On behalf of myself and the Barrhead Leader, I would like to retract the comments made in the column “A conservative dilemma,” which was published online and in the Aug. 14, 2018 edition of the Barrhead Leader.

In the column, I wrongly stated that Rebel Media publisher Ezra Levant would be “hugging himself and weeping tears of joy at the thought of all those brown people leaving the country.”

In fact, Rebel Media advises us that it employs many visible minorities, including Muslims. We retract the implication that Mr. Levant is prejudiced against any people of colour or any minority, including Muslims, or that Mr. Levant is racist.

We apologize to Mr. Levant for having made those statements.
