Cynthia on parent (mom) shaming.  She discusses issues including education, feeding, and even the amount of cultural heritage a child is exposed to.  WHY DO PEOPLE DO THIS??!!!  Do they have too much time on their hands?

Let's put it this way, the way diversity and inclusion is stressed these days is, well, quite frankly, stressful.  The constant discussion in media is probably one of the reasons why so many of us are seeing therapists - especially when everyone expects you to fit into some sort of "box."  Top that with "cancel culture" and you have trouble!

Growing up, my family and I not only ate a lot of Chinese food, but non-Chinese as well.  I remember going to many different restaurants in Toronto, ranging from dim sum, mostly NOT in Chinatown as well as "Italian" places like Mother's Pizza and Pat & Mario  Of course, there was the requisite visits to fast food joints as well.  Many of these places have long gone, but I have many fond memories of going!

Cynthia believes mainstream Toronto media (such as 680News, the Toronto Star, The Globe and Mail, etc...) are too 416 (Toronto proper) focused. And this is especially the case during the pandemic.  Vaccination rates, especially among some ethno-cultural groups, focus only on those in the 416 and not often the 905/suburbs (and 905 area code regions NOT part of the Greater Toronto Area such as Hamilton and the Niagara region).  Even if residents in that particular suburb are dominated by those from that cultural group.  Why is this the case?  Suburbs too boring?

My son was diagnosed as expressively delayed late last year, likely due to the pandemic (because he hasn’t been exposed to other kids, in person) and because he’s living in a bilingual environment.

Why are some calling to "cancel" Canada Day?  And why aren't immigrants/children of immigrants who think otherwise saying anything?  Are we too afraid that we're going to be called out for not being politically correct?  What's wrong with us?  I say acknowledge our past, but celebrate the country we've become.  Many of us have family who come from countries which don't have the freedoms we have here.
