    I can GUARANTEE you that the lady in this article, Maria Pagliuca, a Québec anglophone, has always voted for the Québec Liberal party her whole life. The same party responsible for the piss poor public services that we have today. You can blame the CAQ all you want but they basically kept the status quo on the previous government’s policies.

      I sincerely hope that you never endure the predjudices that you yourself are guilty of eagerly holding towards others.

          When the prejudice is so engrained that you can’t even form an argument against an anonymous person because your entire worldview revolves around your prejudices.

          Do you remember when Jagmeet wasn’t the leader of the NDP, and there was that woman yelling at him about him being Muslim? He’s not, he’s Sikh. When he was asked later why he didn’t just say “I’m not Muslim though”

          "I chose not to answer the questions asked because I didn’t accept the premise.

          “Many people have commented that I could have just said I’m not Muslim. In fact, many have clarified that I’m actually Sikh,” Singh explained in a statement.

          “While I’m proud of who I am, I purposely didn’t go down that road because it suggests their hate would be OK if I was Muslim.”

          I also refuse to entertain any line of questioning based on the premise that it’s ok to judge individual people who are elderly and being let down society based on the language they speak or the province that they’re in. It’s disgusting.
