"...enactment by Ontario of the Racial Discrimination Act in 19XX which proscribed the publication, displaying of material or broadcasting of anything indicating an intention of racial or religious discrimination. The second development was the passage of the Saskatchewan Bill of Rights Act in 19XX."
Anybody care to give a ballpark figure for when those acts were brought into law?
::crickets chirp::
Anyone? Bueller?
1944 and 1947. Cool.
Also ironic, in that at that very time Japanese Canadians were still being called aaall sorts of nasty things over in BC. And not exactly treated like brothers and sisters in the rest of the country either. People are funny.
