Recognizing issues surrounding Castro and his abuse of human rights, Trudeau said, "The fact is Fidel Castro had a deep and lasting impact on the Cuban people. He certainly was a polarizing figure and there certainly were significant concerns around human rights. That’s something I’m open about and that I’ve highlighted."
Trudeau also defended himself, saying his statement was meant to show the deep connections between Canadians and Cubans and defended his own actions on human rights, name-checking Castro's brother, current Cuban president Raul.
Additionally, when asked if Castro was a dictator, Trudeau said, "yes."
Trudeau's original comments led to swift reaction on the internet, including -- of course -- a hashtag.
