He posted an image of the Black Lives Matter logo and wrote: “I am a white Canadian and I will never know what it feels like to be an African American but what I do know is I am willing to stand up and use my voice to shine light on racism, because it’s a real thing and it’s more prevalent now than I have ever seen in my lifetime... We are all God’s children and we are all equal.”
