Q: In Montreal, anybody can get a job, but it's harder for visible minorities to move up in position. How is Calgary in relation to this?
A: Good question. I don't think Calgary is as racially diverse as Montreal, and they have the reputation of being mostly white conservatives. I think most workplaces would welcome you if not only b/c a lot of companies have minority quotas to fill (including women), but as for the higher up positions it's hard to tell. Here's a good site that discusses racism in Calgary and has quotes and surveys from ppl in the black community. http://rvh.socialwork.dal.ca/05%20Community%20Forums/Calgary/forum0203cgy.html
