The following are facts.
a) This appears to be a fake story spread by far right media.
If you're a resident of Ontario who has managed to evade seeing a photo or video of someone allegedly relieving themselves in a public place, conside…

b) Even if this were true, this thread is not discussing what this man did. It is taking what this guy supposedly did, and attributes it to ALL Indian immigrants and Indian culture in general. That IS racism and xenophobia 101. There are 2M Indian immigrants in Canada, accounting for 5% of the population. How many are pooping in the street?
Basically this suspect story, is an opportunity for TERB racists to vent their racism toward immigrants.
So yes, I was accurate in calling it racism.
Why? If he is incontinent, the first thing an incontinent person would do, is take immediate steps to NOT poop their pants. One way of ensuring they dont, is to immediately drop trou and relieve themselves. Which is what the old white guy did in Parkdale. You dont see me going around saying Canadians culturally openly defecate do you? Because I have a little bit more sense than that which you seem to lack.
As someone said, and if you actually read the write up open defecation is practiced quite widely in RURAL India (which is 60% of India) where people go into the paddy fields to do it, and in Urban India by dirt poor people with no access to toilets. It is absolutely considered a problem in India, especially in urban India and hence why the Indian govt. started the Swachh Bharat mission to build toilets for all in India. And these people from rural India are not coming to Canada, as they lack the qualifications to do so. So clearly it is not cultural.
You would definitely not say that he is a new immigrant, because that would
absolutely be racist.
You are being racist by saying that here because you are implying that all of us Indians shit in the streets in India, and are taught to do so. That is racist and monumentally dumb.
Even by your logic (and every other dumbass here for that matter), did you ever ask, why he would choose a gas station of all places, where he rolled up to fill up his gas tank? Why wouldn't he choose the bushes in a park or somewhere else? Why suddenly pull his pants down at the gas station? Did you ask yourself, why this is an old man who seemed to be having trouble even bending his knees in that 3 second clip? Did you ask yourself, why the video does not actually show him poop?
The only thing that explains it, is that it is either an old man with sudden incontinence. Or, a fake doctored pictures/gifs circulated by right wing media, as alluded to in my link above.
