Don't worry Albertans, I know unfortunate incidents such as this one can happen anywhere, whatever the country, city, province etc. God, I'm glad I'm not the perpetrator's girlfriend... he really looks like trouble.

Racism, and also the macho conceit that driving a larger vehicle makes one "more of a man". Hope people in Calgary are able to reassure the driver of the "tiny car" that he is welcome in their city and that such boorish and threatening behaviour is beyond the pale.

I feel great sympathy for this man. however his cultural research was sadly lacking if he thought Calgary would be a different racial climate than most of the US. He must have stopped at who the Mayor was and thought that this is a tolerant city.

Sorry, but the "victim" sounds like a real piece of work. 46km/h in a 70 during rush hour ... and then he brake checks the accused. That's simply being an asshole.

It's no call for physical violence, but there's zero innocent parties here.
