Standing out

In my opinion, I will react normally to someone who has a different racial appearance. Firstly, because it's a person like each others despite his race but each human in the world have the same right. So, I'm not agree with the fact that we make the difference between two race. While, the man with the chinese-vietnamese origin said in the first videoclip when someone asked to him " What is your race ? " He will say always a "human" and I'm agree with him because each person have different nationality but it doesn't just depend of where you are come from and your race to determinate who you are it also depend of your your mentality, your education and your heritage.

In the province of Quebec immigrants are accepted a lot espacially in big city like Montreal where the rate of immigration is 31 %. That's why immigrants tend to settle in bigger cities because they are not the only immigrants like you can be in a small city. For example, when I went to High School, there were only three black people in it and it was probably difficult for these people because they weren't a lot in their race. But there are also 3 other  reasons to choose big city. The first reason, is on the social side.  It's easy for an immigrant to be accept instead to be reject because we go to them, to ask questions and the majority of the people are interrested by them anyway it's in my point of view. The second reason is that many comunities and organisations are created like SITO (service integration travail outaouais) in Gatineau that's expacially for group of immigrants who need help to adapt in the society either for your job or for any information about the city in general. There are also neighborhoods with your same nationality like Chinatown and Little Italy that can help immigrants to adapt fastly and where they can find someone in the same situation.  Until now, It's an advantaged to be an immigrant but let's see in the opposite way. If you are a doctor for example or you have a diploma in a high level when you go in the province of Quebec you cannot practice your work. Your diploma is invalid. You need to return at school even if you don't have money, or you are very old. If the doctor don't return at school he will probably become a cashier in a store. It's unfair ! Brief, In Big city like Montreal, the majority of the people are more tolerant of differences than in smaller towns. But I don't know if Quebec city is a big or a small town but the majority of people react like me they don't have prejudice because I think that we have a lot of tourists in Quebec City and because it's common to see a people in an other nationality. But the problem is that people cannot have a job as easy as it woulb be. 

I would like to see more racially different people in Quebec cities other than Montreal because it allow to travel without having to move and this would become a habit to see different people. So, it would have least problem about job because if 50 % for example of the population are immigrants, the owner would have no choice, they would choose them.

My Name

My mother always wanted to give me that name, the name I bear today because when she was 18 years old she knew a little and pretty girl and her name was Emily with a “Y” because it’s the English form, my mother loved that idea. My father had almost the same idea than my mother but a little bit different because he would name me Amélie instead of Emily, I know that it’s very similar but I’m very happy today that my parent didn’t keep the idea to call me Amélie. Emily is a feminine name derived from the Roman feminine name Aemilia. The Latin name Aemilia in turn may derive from the Latin word aemulus (or from the same root as aemulus); meaning "rival" and “trick”, but this may be a folk etymology. The origin of my name in Greek means “cunning”. I find this funny because my last name is Goupil, and it means “Renard” in French or “Fox” in English but the signification of the word are not the same. So, my first and last name means almost the same thing because a fox is an animal very cunning that plays tricks on other animals and humans which made the character popular. So, the the signification on my both name describe me a lot because I like to play tricks to my friends and I’m a person with a lot of idea in my mind so don’t mess it up with me.

Does gender matter?

I think that it's not the better way to show to your kids how to live in the society. The parents don't help their kids to find their personality in that way. It's hard for a person at this age to make choice for example choose between long hair or short hair, the kid will probably answer long hair... Why ? probably because it's funnier for him but he don't really know the impact of his apparance towards the others. When people have difficulty to say if that's a boy or a girl, I guess that there're a big problem here ! Right ? Anyway... these parents don't know their action towards their son because it'll probably make a kid and adult upset in the future about his apparence or maybe his psychology about the vision of the world because all of his childhood, he grew up in world of a toss up... So he'll probably don't know who is he, how to make the best decision to follow the conformity and how to don't seem strange. Finally, I think that if you don't want to make tons of children as opposed to compliance of the society, we should dress up our kids with compliance of the standars. But when I think about it... we should not rely on the appearance !!! basically, we should not care about these thing. So, now I'm in a toss up I'm not sure if I'm agree or disagree with this. Probably for my conscience it's better if I'm agree with the fact that people can seem like they want even if they are weird ahah !!! but anyway back on topic... like the parents say approximately « the kid can choose himself » ! It's his life. So, to conclude I'm agree that we don't judge people about their appareance but I'm agree too with the fact that a boy not have to be a girl because it's a guy so the parents shouldn't change his mind. That's it !
