| Description | Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing a backlash for correcting a woman who used the term "mankind".
During a town hall event in Edmonton, Alberta, last week, Mr Trudeau interrupted the young woman and urged her to say "peoplekind" instead.
Critics accused the prime minister of "mansplaining", "virtue-signalling" and making up words.
But his spokesman said Mr Trudeau was "a proud feminist" whose policies reflect "commitments to equality". |
