Halifax Stanfield: Right Side and French-Speaking Woman

halifax stanfield: How they treated me, I didn't feel like someone who is an important client, she said in a phone interview, according to CTV. I feel, like, rejected and given a lack of consideration, you know. Jeanne Lehman, a community activist and officer with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada, said she is seeing a psychologist for mental trauma she endured boarding a plane at Halifax Stanfield International Airport. This is a shame for me. Her trouble began when a rash appeared on the right side of her face during a trip to Halifax last week. Lehman is a black, French-speaking woman who calls the treatment systemic racism. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
