Why shouldn’t people be proud of where they come from and their respective cultures? It’s cool to see and the diversity creates role models for younger generations to say hey if they can do it maybe so can I. If someone has a chip on their shoulder about being Canadian or American or something they can relate to, people don’t bat an eye, but I find it interesting they bat an eye when it’s outside that. Short sighted take, no need to bring that in as a discussion point, it’s irrelevant.
