Looking at my university graduation yearbook yesterday - sort of a nostalgic run through to see if I recognized any of the faces in that book - there were a lot of kids where I went to school, and there are thousands of photo's in this book. All of them are white. I don't actually remember there being many non whites at school. I can remember one, maybe two. In Canada, at least until the last few decades, every smart person was white, with a few token exceptions, and those being from other parts of the Empire - Egypt, India. etc. If you were a doctor from Egypt (from a British medical school,) you still had to pass Canadian medical exams to earn the right to work as a doctor in Canada. That means a return to school in almost all cases. School was merit based - you had to be able to pass the exams. Color had nothing to do with it. Either you were smart enough, or you were not. I entered in business school, and they only graduated 20%. The other 80% got weeded out, and the campus bars were filled with kids crying in their beer. There was no discrimination except for intellect. It was succeed or leave. As it should be. I don't give a fuck what color you are, if you are not smart enough to meet the grade then you don't need to be there.
