I thank Medium for boosting my piece, but the way it is framed here is admittedly clickbaity. I always welcome critique, but please, please read before critiquing. Fyi I discuss why heightism is NOT oppression in the same way racism, sexism etc are.

#CancelCanadaDay isn’t about taking away a stat holiday. It’s about using today not to celebrate blindly, but to think about how we can decolonize our country to make it truly awesome for everyone.

The Canadian census is so problematic. No respect for privacy. Just cause people share a household doesn’t mean they’re comfortable sharing stuff like mental health, gender identity, or even employment with each other.
