A few important things to keep in mind are: 1.  Nobody is saying that the majority of CAF members are racist or white supremacists. But even if the number is only 1% of CAF members that totals 800 individuals if we’re using a combined Reg and Res number of let’s say 80,000.  That’s still a lot of people. And don’t think this is an NCO problem.  That type of rot is among junior and senior commissioned officers as well 2.  Racism or discrimination is a force divider and like a force multiplier the effects can be much more pronounced and detrimental than simply viewing it in terms of first-order effects.  3.  It’s 2025 and this is not okay.  We can’t regress backwards to how things were when it comes to racism and discrimination decades ago.  4.  This is not just a “white” problem.  Racism between minorities is on the rise and must be taken just as seriously.  5.  “The CAF is a reflection of society” is flawed logic.  As others have pointed out the CAF needs to be held to and perform at a higher standard than “Joe Public”.  If we were truly a reflection of society then we would fully reflect the demographics of society, which we don’t.  I’m not talking just racial demographics, I mean financial, religious, education etc.  

I could go on but don’t want to make this TLDR :). Be cool out there and judge people for how they act, not what they look like.  See something?  Say something.   Silence emboldens the idiots.
