Quebec’s government (taxpayers) took Saad in as a Lebanese refugee in 1975
Then they:
* Paid for his undergraduate education at McGill
* Gave him a job as a tenured business professor at Concordia university and paid him a salary of $200k a year where he wrote a book about how it was “suicidal” to give a shit about other people
Fuck this narcissistic scum
This is what we mean by white privilege. A white man can slap a police officer and steal his car without a single shot being fired, yet a one-year-old Black child can be shot because her mother was suspected of shoplifting.
Did he think Canada would just allow him to evade Capital Gains Tax on gains he made in Canada before he left?
Is he actually crying that Canada doesn't allow ex-pats to evade capital gains taxes on gains made here?
This is what passes as "intellectual" on the right. 😆😆
Gad’s family moved to Canada to escape war in Lebanon. Canada gave him a heavily subsidized public education through university, public healthcare, then a publicly subsidized job at a university. He should shut up, count his blessings, and pay his taxes.
How can someone in South Sudan know so much about Nigeria constructing a 4,000 km high-speed railway that will connect all the states in Nigeria without any Nigerian media or people being aware of it?
Black folk if you start randomly seeing an increase in "racist" Ethiopian 🇪🇹 accounts online calling you "Bariya" just know most likely it's a Somali 🇸🇴 behind it.....
These Somalis HATE the more positive reputation Ethiopia has worldwide....
On June 19, 1865, African American communities in Galveston, Texas, finally learned of their freedom from slavery — two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation took effect.
For 161 years, Juneteenth has been a day of remembrance for the freedom that was delayed. It is also a celebration of the joy and resilience that flourished despite that delay.
The contributions of African Americans, whose struggle for freedom shaped our nation, are immeasurable. Yet too many Black families continue to bear the brunt of an affordability crisis that has pushed them out of the neighborhoods and communities they've built.
True freedom has a tangible impact on daily life: the ability to afford housing, earn a living wage, put food on the table, support a family, and create a future for generations to come.
As we celebrate today, we must recommit ourselves to ensuring this freedom is fully realized.
Happy Juneteenth, New York City.
@oromothegreat Your language isn't the only one without writing system. It is okay. We have our own writing system. We have our numeral systems. We have our calendar. We have our own time counting system.
