Event to discuss the Waffen SS cancelled after U of A professors complain about Nazi whitewashing
Nazi whitewashing in Alberta? I never would have expected 🙄.
I grew up in that province, and left as soon as I could. When I go back to look at my friends from high school on Facebook, pretty much all the ones that stayed in Alberta are the type of people who would like this. Alberta has done an amazing job at raising generations of ignorant, bigoted people and making everyone that did not fit that mould want to leave. The only ‘safe haven’ seems to be Calgary, and that is still a stretch.
Surprisingly, the more north you go in Alberta, the more french it becomes. Which, ironically, becomes even more racist.
I learned a lot from visiting my Dads friends in Athabasca. Nothing good.
Calgary is probly our most progressive city, yea.
The rest of us sane people out here just facepalm and stay quiet.
And vote NDP
I thought Edmonton had a reputation for being more progressive than Calgary. That seems to be borne out by the figures here:
