Southern Alberta: Elderly Man

Safeway Dept: You are a true gentleman in the colour, the old man told Kassem after asking him to pick up some milk for him at the local Safeway, according to The Star. He was in his 70s and maybe this was old thinking and he wanted to tell me that he was surprised that I could help him out, says Kassem in the office of the radio station where he hosts a weekly diversity show with the largest audience in southern Alberta and bROOKS, ALTA. The phrase could have been a thank you or an insult and Ahmed Kassem has struggled to understand what the elderly man meant. For months, Kassem wondered about the phrase. As reported in the news.
@t true gentleman, kassem
