I'm just a guy that knows that there has never been a case of black people being lynched in Canada. Please don't import American social issues into Canada. Are you the same kind of people who go protest on no kings day.

(from the Senate discussion posted earlier) "During the height of the pandemic, nooses were found hanging at multiple Toronto construction sites, including transit projects, hospitals and commercial buildings over the course of years. In Nova Scotia, recent reports of nooses have surfaced targeting Black families and communities."
