Hate and intolerance have no place in our society. I'm from Toronto. We have a very large and vibrant Chinese community there as well. I was recently speaking to one of our Chinese citizens, who said that she called her sister on the weekend and urged her not to go out, because she was fearful.
No Canadian should ever be fearful of hatred or intolerance in this country. We all need to stand up against it, call it out and be very careful in our own language as well—
