What Fun--Vancouverites Get to Expatiate Their Guilt Via a "How Racist Are We?" Forum

"How racist are we?": the answer seems to be that we're so racist that we don't deserve to live in this multiculti "paradise":
Metro Vancouver residents will get a chance to confront racism at a free public forum hosted by The Province and the Laurier Institution Monday. 
The panel was sparked by The Province’s ongoing series, Racism in Paradise, which plumbs the hidden face of discrimination in B.C. The series runs daily Oct. 6 to 23 in the newspaper and online at TheProvince.com. 
The topic is: “How racist are we? And how do we move past it?” and the discussion will be moderated by former B.C. Premier Ujjal Dosanjh. 
Joining him on the panel are Chief Douglas White III, of the Snuneymuxw First Nation; Winnie Hwo, former news director for Fairchild Television; Martin Collacott, who served as High Commissioner to Sri Lanka and Ambassador to Syria, Lebanon and Cambodia; and CKNW radio broadcaster and host Bill Good. 
The forum takes place Monday, Oct. 21, at UBC’s Robson Square in the Sauder Executive Room from 7 to 9 p.m. 
The Laurier Institution is a Vancouver-based non-profit organization that promotes dialogue on the complexities of multiculturalism and diversity in Canada.
One of the "complexities"/memes/myths which Laurier Institution members and other leftists hold dear: only white folks are capable of being racist.
