Aw, c'mon guys. Think harder!
Just hours ago i heard Québec's PM François Legault declaring on TVA's (French TV) news channel, during an interview with Pierre Bruneau as host, that there's
NO "
Systemic Racism" in our province. aHummm!...
Now, looking at some violent events as those of Montréal-North (located near Henri-Bourassa & Langelier), euh...
Once better informed about what happened, where, and why... Etc. Can't we at least minimally agree on 1 single point: the population of what's said to have been tagged as the "
Bronx"
by police (according to local written press...), m'well, IMHO these collectivities *
ARE* indeed victims of systemic racism, quite on the contrary!!
My argumentation is that if we may assume with 100 % confidence that police was always rightful and worthy of "
The Thin Blue Line" rhetoric, euh... aHummm... Well, i mean, in principle a vast majority of this whole population probably evaluates they're entitled to a same fair level of
safety & protection as anyone else: which is what cops are paid for to begin with... But it looks a lot more as if this local population just got instrumentalized once again and far too long already...
So, quite evidently the hostilities should in principle have ended with the immigrant tenager killing of
2009; in a parc at night i think. But nearly
10 years later the same actors resurfaced and yet for even
~4 more years some ultra-conformist/rightist criterias of a dominant "elite" caused all sorts of distortions to occur within the coordinates of this "hot" perimeter, defined by the
SPVM-GTi it appears...
Was the dead man really as bad as mass media described him? What would it sound like to interview his surviving relatives and friends?? We may never know but a fact remains, Montréal voters have their
fundamental rights challenged -
if not plain denied - just depending on geography!
Good luck convincing me that's pure coïncidence. Or pinch me!
The worse part of it being that it's not unreasonable to suspect that "the Bronx" was "
spared" only to accumulate circumstancial "evidence"
in support of the
manslaughter cause i previously mentioned, which is still due to conclude in
February i hope.
...
My conclusion imposes itself. One way or another, assuming the point ain't as much about Bony Jean-Pierre than it reflects a larger social reality, i get a most persistent impression that François Legault went colour-blind or something!!
