When the left tries to tell you that Canada is a racist country, that we’re a country of white supremacy, and you point out that minority groups do terrible things as well, that every country has a dark past, you are playing their game. You have already lost. You have already proved their point in their minds, and they will twist what you say to mean you’re an apologist, and use it to get more people on their side. All you can do is come up with constructive solutions, or call them racists if they are participating in open racism. You may feel that you have to respond with whataboutism, but you don’t. Just say no.
That’s it, that’s the article. Just. Say. No.
