Oh I don't have to work, dear, nor do I go out at night, but thanks for your concern. Lol

Of course. That's the point of laying charges, the goal of the protests. Ya, we saw Stockwell Day's character. End of story.

I stand corrected. I was aware of preferences, not restrictions. Racism in hiring is systemic and has to be addressed directly.

They don't.

AND WE HAVE SOME WINNERS! Denial of racism among Canadians. Denial of racism among Canadian police. Denial of racism in the death of George Floyd. 4 MLW is STILL the racist winner of Canadian discussion boards! Cue the deniers Q? If white supremacists truly believe in the supremacy of the white race, the dangers of inter-mingling races, the threats of multiculturalism to the white race ... why do they deny their own racism? Do they not have faith in their own ideology? Always a mystery!

When did you last experience discrimination, harassment or abuse solely because of the colour of your skin?

How will we know when we get there?

I'm not going to debate whether racism is worse outside of Canada. This is a good summary of Toronto incidents. Outstanding right now is the verdict in the aggravated assault of Dafonte Miller by an off duty Toronto PS officer and his brother. December 2016 — The beating of Dafonte Miller: The then-19-year old Black Whitby man was severely beaten during an encounter with off-duty Toronto police officer Michael Theriault and his brother, Christian Theriault. He sustained serious damage to his eye, which required surgical removal. The brothers were charged with aggravated assault; the trial was completed earlier this year but the verdict has been delayed by COVID-19 court closures. https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2020/06/02/from-police-shootings-to-protests-over-anti-black-racism-torontos-last-three-decades-of-racial-controversy.html

George Floyd was a Black man murdered by four white cops, all now arrested and charged: 2nd degree murder, Aiding and abetting 2nd degree murder x 3. It's the context of the topic. That and resulting protests.

The OP is about racism. Sorta kinda related to a Black man being murdered by 4 cops in the US recently, resulting protests everywhere, chaos in the US ... and specifically Doug Ford in Ontario repeating something like what Stockwell Day said (OP) - 'Canada isn't racist like the US ... ' We're more subtle about it perhaps. Oh ya, Trump's hydroxychloroquine-damaged brain is gonna fix all that for ya! Fill yer boots. Lol

Alberta alienated itself, refusing to see the writing on the wall.

You obsess about closing the border, but doing so earlier would not have stopped Canadian snowbirds from coming home and visiting elderly relatives without isolating first, nor health care staff returning from holidays and going straight back to work in Long Term Care without isolating, nor PSW's forced to work in 2-3 LTC homes to make a living wage. Your xenophobia has you pointing your finger in the wrong direction: The virus came home with Canadians. The problem was not borders but lack of isolation of returning Canadians, and lack of proper staffing conditions in LTC.

I don't believe "a good shit-kicking" by a 'Chad' is going to fix any Incels who are inclined to violence against women. Quite the opposite.

So ... you're suggesting taking away constitutional rights of freedom of expression, association and assembly? Or that are they only for white people? Clarify ... ?

I think they've had plenty of that. Bullies do pick on the socially awkward kids, likely a part of the problem.
