Maybe it's when I heard that in this day and age, indigenous communities are living without fresh water...
...Maybe it's after ten years of hearing about this stuff but nothing changing
...Maybe after seeing people burn comic books in the name of reconciliation do precisely nothing else.
...Maybe it's after hearing Bock-Coté, Martineau, Bombardier and CAQ reactionaries
speak and write like because the current discourse around racism is loudest in the United States, the country next door with a very similar history is magically immune to a universal flaw in human nature just because it does not speak english.
...Maybe it is after hearing them speak like any "woke" idea or grievance by muslim, latino, black, indigenous (or insert non-quebecois identity here) is some kind of anglo-canadian conspiracy to make quebeckers seem racist.
...Maybe it was after seeing conservative anglophone pundits use those issues as proof Quebeckers are the most racist nation on Earth.
...Maybe it was after seeing those conservative pundits describe bilingualism as some kind of virtue-sigalling wokeness...
...but at some time, I figured out that this country needs a good therapist!
