A Calgary judge has apologized to University of Calgary law students for what have been described as racist comments made during a guest lecture Thursday, CBC News has learned. Uncomfortable with 'dark people'Several students say Eidsvik talked about being uncomfortable when she walked into a room "full of big dark people." One student told CBC News the judge said she was used to having a button to press if she was in trouble. The students say Eidsvik told them she was used to being in her "ivory tower" where she's normally "removed from the riff raff." Another second-year student told CBC News they worry, "someone who has those views is on the bench and is making decisions that affect people's lives."
