Here is the video

The woman was not speaking in french, so it sounds like she was incoherant and was treated as such when she was screaming for help. So yes it was totally racism. They told her how proud her children would be to see her like this and she's better off dead.

Quebec is a very racist province as soon as you move east of Montreal, probably more so than any other province including Alberta and Red Deer. The attitude they had towards her was one of seeing her as subhuman.

The translation from the guardians is extremely poor, it was much more vulgar and derogatory than that.

"Esti d’épaisse de tabarnouche... C’est mieux mort, ça. As-tu fini de niaiser... câlisse? T’es épaisse en câlisse" does not translate to "stupid"...

Best translation as it loses its derogatory meaning in English: You **** fat ****. It's better off dead, that thing. Are you done fooling around ****? You fat **** . Replace the **** with your favourite swear word.
