Hey if your in edmonton next time hit me up! best to use your phone next time. I've been to west edmonton fliming lots with no issue. Sorry to hear about your troubles. Fort Mcmurray is not for weak....
Yea that security thinks you're an illegal immigrant. His ignorance tho, he handled you ignorantly. Don't let this discourage you Bro, stay blessed..🙏😎
Sorry to hear this Boss but please get a good lawyer. Preferably an Indian Lawyer (they understand the laws and the system better than any immigrant group). Don’t let it slide. They will call you and claim they’re investigating and won’t do anything about it until they see you’re suing them. As for the police, you will be the one chasing them for updates…
He’ll likely do the same thing to another Black person if he isn’t held accountable. While an apology is appreciated, he should face consequences and be in court right now-this should be on CTV or Global News. Situations like this shouldn’t be downplayed, especially when children are growing up in that community. I live in Whitecourt, and my kids visit that place often. Next time, my brother, call the police immediately.
Trust me it’s someone that called the security to come to you. Probably because they thought you were filming them. Unfortunately they have no right to check your phone that’s why the guy was just engaging you like that. For next time it’s just advisable to have an ID. To avoid all these nonsense behaviour. The guy was very wrong to do that. Even the guy is an immigrant. Yeye Dey smell.

I'm from Edmonton and people record themselves at WEM all the time. This is very unfortunate and I'm very disappointed at the security guard.
Taiwo, take this case up. There are Nigerian lawyers in Edmonton (and Calgary) that can take this case up for free. I don't want this to end here...
So sorry 😢 Brother...that's pure discrimination but take it easy it was a reflection of the frustration or bitterness inside of him...he's stupid!

Yup good old racial profiling! Been in Edmonton since 89 and this happens quite a bit if you are male and black in a mall.
Wrong answer. You didn't have to say you didn't have your id. Ask him to id himself. When he does. Tell him to call the cops and be silent

File a lawsuit.
I guess this's the New Canada. Get ready for loads of discrimination in the coming years. These new policies are bitter-sweet.
So sorry this happened. Most have really been a heart-wrenching experience for you. The west needs to do better
