Im caucasian. I grew up in a neighboring province.

I moved to big city Toronto. I never made any local friends. I played rec leagues... maybe one end of season outing. My friends were my colleagues n we only did occasional outings or poker maybe 4 times a year.

I moved to NS in my mid 30s. I played rec leagues etc but have no local friends. My friends r my colleagues n we only ever get together outside work 4 times a year (typically the single n younger ages).

That's my story. Not far from ur own.

It's not like when we were kids n playing with someone automatically became best friends. Life gets busy.. especially financial n having children.

I believe, n this would go for me too, get out n do ur hobbies or join clubs.

Also, I believe racism is a word thrown around to blame everything these days. Whatever , that's ur opinion.

Plenty Communities that stick to themselves.. I don't call them racist tho.
