City’s anti-racism choice displeases Legault
The city’s choice of Bochra Manaï as its first anti-racism commissioner is a mistake, according to a spokesman for François Legault, specifically because she’s worked against the Loi sur la laïcité (Bill 21). I don’t believe Quebec can force the city to remove her, at least not directly.

Legault complains the anti-racism commissioner is not racist enough. So, sounds good?

How can Montreal separate from this racist province and its racist leaders? Our district character is under threat.

I’d be concerned if the anti-racism commissioner had NOT worked against Bill 21 at some point.

Guess his ideal choice is a visible minority who says yes boss, because the people of Quebec are perfect never making mistakes. Or a white person who has some visible minority friends. My boss is like that, and I’ll submit he hires visible minorities, but meeting a random stranger in an airport in the States who spoke french told him he lived in Montreal for ten years and couldn’t get a job in engineering in the 80’s. He was Persian. He told him your not a minority so you have no right to say there is no racism because you don’t face it. My boss changed after that so there is hope as he apologized to me and another visible minority on being ignorant.
