But the story gets worse. A lot worse. Pierre Trudeau’s womanizing style has oft been the subject of jokes, so it might not seem to be a huge issue when Levant decided to incorporate a reference to it in his rant. After all even Air Farce used to do it. But rather than make a light hearted innuendo Levant critically compared the younger Trudeau to the behaviour of his parents, and said of Pierre Trudeau, “he banged anyone. He was a slut. [Margaret] wasn’t much different.” For proof, Levant stipulated that Margaret and Pierre wildly publicized their sexual conquests. First of all, as the younger generation realizes “No slut shaming!” To translate for the older generation I remind you of the line “He who is without sin, throw the first stone.” Further I wasn’t around back then, but it seems that the media made a spectacle of the couple’s actions. Even thirty and forty years ago our media was uncomfortably pervasive at times. Making lighthearted innuendoes for a laugh is acceptable, but a poisonous attack against someone because of something their parents did long ago is unfair and inappropriate in such a public setting.
