I don't think of myself as racist but what I always challange all my kids to do is pull their thumbs out of their arse, quit blaming others (be they parents, the ministry, white canada or even me) and get a job, at the end of the day it is the only solution, it is what enabled chinese people, who were just as looked down on in Canada, to achieve prosperity.

In the end if you think of yourself as victim that is what you will be.
