I keep trying to explain my GF who thinks Canada is such a great place to live that all Canada is interested in is how much money she is bringing.
Not to mention that when we landed in Canada a friendly CBSA idiot told me that Chinese are the biggest swindlers. Ummm... lady... don't you have terrorists to catch?
I guess what really pisses me off is that my tax dollars are going to some focus group in Quebec so that Jean can come up with a great thought while sipping his Labatt Bleu. Fuck you Canada.
There is just so much crap in this article that it makes my blood boil.
Bank of Canada slammed over 'racist' move to scrap Asian image from $100 bills - The Globe and Mail
I just examined the woman in question under a magnifying glass and there's no way in the world she looks remotely Asian.
I'll read no further.

You actually have a $100 bill in your home?
You're a baller.
I always carry cash, no cards.
Anyway, no way in the world.
Do you have a Canadian polymer 100 note?
You could get one at a money changer.(or Bangkok Bank....mind you, they'd want to see your plane ticket out)
You tell me if she looks remotely Asian.
I'd say more French or Belgian......
The idiocy of the situation.
A focus group.
A brown paper suggesting the color of Asian on the note.
The woman that does not look like Asian.
A woman that does not look Asian, but is suspected of looking Asian and apparently the inventor on insulin??? (well, that one is a winner)
A focus group to for this shit?
I'm into focus groups....all expenses paid mind you.
If you had read further it might have saved you from once again looking like an idiot...
So, yeah...I'd expect that the image you're examining has no ethnicity at all...But before the new banknotes were released to the public late last year, the image was changed to fit with Bank of Canada policy of not highlighting specific ethnicities, a spokeswoman for the Bank said.![]()

i don't think canadians hate asians otherwise they wouldn't let so many enter the country every year
Canadians hate everybody equally. They just but 'bud' at the end of insults and make it seem like they like you.
We could all sit outside on banana lounges discussing the best way to rebuild a 4WD transmission and agree, through shared stories of conquests supporting our assertions, that there is no basis to the proposition that those least assured of their persuasions are the first to condemn others for theirs.
Oh yes.
Thanks. Good man!
Focus, focus and focus.

I could for on for pages about Immigration policy in western industrialized states.![]()
Open immigration allows western countries to get the cream of the crop while old countries experience brain drain.
It's how America won WW2.
It's also why Thailand is still a third-world country, and why Korea is a filthy, corrupt hellhole. China's economy will never surpass America for this very reason. The only Asian country who doesn't seem victim to this is Japan.
