Man, it is all about the free ride and has nothing to do with fairness. I was born in Canada, my parents were born in Canada. In Canada we never had slaves. In fact Canada openly welcomed escaped slaves. What color do you think our criminals are? What color do you think our welfare people and ghettos are? The race to crime statistics look a whole lot like the USA. We have quotas at job hiring, at school admission and all those things as well. They cannot say "hey we were slaves in Canada" so instead they make it almost illegal to release statistics. I am glad I live in countries now where no one cares about these things and PC does not exist.
