    Tit for tat race generalisation

    It's only 11 minutes, like one of those short Chinese animation series. It has some snarky bits, double entendres, and a tit for tat kind of race generalisation with a bit of xenophobia. The snarky bits poke fun at the insensible money-making schemes that targets new-generation, and by which some amass wealth. The race relation is shown as it is common to generalise people based on their race, origin, background, etc and no one is triggered by it, and everyone sees it as a common thing to do in Canada, and at best it is used as an excuse and sass by both women and men of all colors and shape. I have never seen such openness and guilt-free depiction of it. With all the circus and propaganda pushing that is going in Canada, I believe only this kind of race relation works there. Everyone involved has some form of narcissistic traits and a bit of circus that goes in Canada as well, it was a bit amusing to watch that kind of interactions. If a mixture of transnationalism and white Canadian interactions were not the sole focus; I would have loved to seeing some more multicultural families in the show. Kim's family from Kim's Convenience was a delight, and in that same vein, I would love to see some Ukrainian, Nigerian, and Punjabi families in the future seasons of the show to just make it colorful.
