The City of Calgary ’s recently released Calgary Plan devotes a lot of attention to the idea that Calgary is a systemically racist city.

Randell Randell : The idea of systemic racism has become popular in recent years , with even the prime minister declaring Canada a racist country.

Calgary Plan dedicates whole pages to Truth and Reconciliation along with equity and inclusion, but the word “equity” appears in the plan more than 50 times, while “affordability” surfaces a mere four times.
