I grew up in Zimbabwe, this happened all the time. We were expected to pay our way out. My grandfather spent his last years in prison for advocating for greater democratic freedom. My families have been driven off there land in the dead of night with nothing but their clothes on there backs, if they made it out alive. We were not allowed to become politicians, public servants because of our skin color. Yes, I can talk about racism. It was everywhere where I grew up.

Why do I need to help you? I am white and I have been through all the experiences you have been through. I constantly get mistaken for a security guard or a gate agent. Have you ever thought that you turn everyday human experiences into something racial. Yes that would get exhausting. People can be aholes, or having a bad day, and they can do it to everyone regardless of skin colour. Does anyone listen to me? No one gives a crap.

"Quebec, by the way, is the same province that bans signs in English and has recently banned religious symbols in the workplace" I live in Quebec. Are you sure of your statement?

you're thinking of Kai Tak which closed down in 1999. The new one is more than fine.
