"The term 'nigger' itself, I don't take to be racist."

 - Reform Party Member of Parliament Jack Frazer, defending the
   now-disbanded Canadian Airborne Regiment from charges of racism.
   (among other things, members of the Regiment referred to Somalis
   as 'niggers' in videos and tortured a Somali teenager to death
   while on peacekeeping duty in Somalia.)
