So, here's the thing. I don't have a problem with him or anyone else saying that Canada is not a racist country. I agree with that. I certainly don't agree with the view that the system isn't systemically racist - the outcomes for aboriginal people strongly suggest that it is, although there are a lot of factors influencing those outcomes. I just don't think it should be a firing offense to say that.
Anyway, they can fire him if they want I guess. Obviously the smart thing to do at this point if you want to push back on any discussion about racism and its effects is, just keep your mouth shut.
