Greetings from progressive Kitsilano in Van BC where middle aged/senior rental property owners I endure at neighborhood local have gone beyond hating on Indigenous people to spewing re “black people” & “corncob pipes”. Now onto Catholics. Canada is most racist place I’ve ever lived. #cdnpoli #bcpoli
That includes my med school #Hahnemann where when I was in student gov ~1982 then Student Body Prez Ray x (can’t recall: not worth looking up) stated before SNMA came to seek (routine) funding: “Let’s see what the n****rs want”. Ray strutted his racism. De facto #bcpoli folk deny theirs: and preen.
HU paid bills w/ 20-25% out of state students-charging us full tuition: 25K in 1982, when 100k bought (most of a) house in LA/SF. Year after Ray’s slur we CAians at #Hahnemann (now #Drexel Med) elected proudly out Cindy Daly as Prez. This week #BCpoli shafts Indigenous folks. They & #cdnpoli preen.
