Re: Now I know how they feel
Didn't realize it in the UK, but it's very difficult being an immigrant and constantly feeling like you don't have the right to be critical. I very nearly got a "if you don't like it **** off back where you came from" the other day because I suggested a Province being the last one to do something was not necessarily a thing to call out to be proud of. It got to the point of you chose to be here, I was born here when I decided to bow out of the discussion.
Sometimes you feel a long way from home even after 8 years.

Re: Now I know how they feel
It was only because it was a friend of a friend that I backed off, I don't normally.
Every person I spoke to about it at work confirmed that they thought I had just as much right, if not more seeing what I had been through to get here, to be critical
