Please bear with me as I make a few separate yet related
points on the matters of:
Politeness
Frustration
Protest
And PROTEST
Politeness
I’ve always felt grateful that most Torontonian’s repress
their inner desire to let rip on a person or situation that is particularly disturbing.
Oh don’t get me wrong, I’m not talking the politeness we show to tourists, and I
know we’re not saints, we’ll mutter under our breath something fierce, or snipe
from the sanctuary of a locked vehicle, but it’s rare that someone will rant in
open public (anonymous social media venues aside). This self imposed
prohibition by most people generally makes Toronto a wonderful place to live.
