I answered ONE of his posts once, containing gross affirmations and insults toward Robert Hyatt and his work. I told Evans that that was not a good way of building a good reputation and ended up being accused of not sharing his political view at the federal level of the country??? That wasn't even close to the subject discussed! I had to remind him that attacking anyone based on the colour of the skin, the religion, the gender, the political opinion and the sexual orientation, real or not, is illegal! Serge Desmarais
