I know the questions are deliberately worded to be ambiguous and leading, but every single one is clearly a racist dogwhistle. For all of the redneck shitheads emboldened by our government of bigots and traitors, I don't think the majority of Albertans are that bad.

Guess we'll see.

Anti-immigrant rhetoric is a pretty mainstream position nationwide at this point.

Mostly targeted at one group as well. It’s sickening.

No way, our bigots hate Asians and brown/middle east people! Their bigotry is truly multicultural.

Our immigrants also seem to dislike immigrants... Nothing like pulling the ladder up after yourself.

I will never understand this mentality. As an immigrant to Canada myself who is now a citizen, I'm just like the many people right now seeking permanent residency. I'm no more special or qualified than them. The only difference is that the ladder is no longer there.

I certainly would not like it if previous folks pulled up the ladder they used. And therefore I cannot pull up that ladder to others just like myself

Which is very unfortunate for this country
