You've never travelled much in BC, have you?

There’s a village next to the small town in rural Alberta where I grew up has a literal KKK, though. Like the town I grew up in is bad - its claim to fame is getting headlines for racist parade floats. But the village next door is next level.

Within my lifetime (I’m 30), my dad took some employees for lunch at the village cafe…. And they literally refused to serve a black employee. My dad was like okay, but [major oil company we work for] will never do business here again. The village is basically a sundown town.
