is "canadian" a racist term?


article submitted by geoblaze.

is "canadian" the new black? perhaps – that is if you're a racist speaking in code.

recent revelations that the term "canadian" is being used to replace racist names for black people have got a texas assistant district attorney into trouble and have left others wondering what exactly it means to be labeled a canadian in the american south.

long derogated as weak-kneed liberals with lax laws and funny monopoly money, canadians have carried a negative connotation in certain regions of america – but not as a replacement for the n-word.

earlier this week a columnist with the houston chronicle uncovered an email from harris county assistant district attorney mike trent who, in a congratulatory note to a junior prosecutor, used the word "canadians" to describe blacks on a jury.

trent wrote of the prosecutor in a 2003 email: "he overcame a subversively good defence by matt hennessey that had some canadians on the jury feeling sorry for the defendant and forced them to do the right thing."

trent's email remained unchallenged by colleagues who received the email, despite there being no actual canadians on the jury.

but when trent's office came under scrutiny this month over an unrelated incident, the email was unearthed, leaving trent open to accusations of bigotry.

those accusations are grounded in allegations that the use of "canadians" was in keeping with the definition listed on an online racial slurs database that defines "canadian" as a masked replacement for the n-word.

in his own defence, trent said he honestly thought there had been canadians on the jury and did not understand the negative connotation of the word.

others, including the columnist with the houston chronicle initially thought the reference to canadians may have been a misspelling of californians, who are themselves seen to espouse many of the same liberal values as canadians.

despite the controversy, henry wells, a texan and media relations officer with the canadian consulate general in dallas, says he has never heard the term used in a racial manner before.

Video:Canadian $ (CDN) Equal To US $ (USD)

canadian $ (cdn) equal to us $ (usd)

new york (ap) -- for the first time since gerald ford was president, the loonie can buy as much as the greenback. the u.s. dollar's recent decline against the canadian dollar, the euro, and even the indian rupee, means americans will pay more for imports and trips to paris, rome, bangalore and toronto. it also may drive overseas demand for u.s. goods and help raise profits at u.s. multinational corporations.

the u.s. dollar reached 1-to-1 parity against the canadian dollar thursday for the first time since november 1976. that means one canadian dollar now buys one u.s. dollar, so a bottle of maple syrup could cost an american as much in toronto as it does in new york.

today's numbers, however, do not mean that the dollar is facing a meltdown.

thursday's drop is of greater concern to currency markets than u.s. households, except "if you're a connoisseur of french wines or canadian maple syrup," said david gilmore, a partner at foreign exchange analytics in essex, conn.

a lower dollar makes u.s. exports more competitive, which is good news for american manufacturers but spells rising prices for imports to the u.s. the dollar's decline also diminished the spending power of american tourists while attracting to the u.s. foreign visitors who seek cheaper accommodations and shopping.
