Also in October, Ottawa photojournalist Justin Tang documented another incident in a viral Twitter post. Tang said he was walking toward an entrance at the Rideau Centre and was putting on a face mask when he noticed a maskless man holding the door open.
After Tang thanked him, the man said something to the effect of, ” ‘ When they make me wear a mask, that makes me want to kill Asian people,’ ” Tang said.
In May, Ottawa police asked for the public’s help in tracking down two people in a car alleged to be behind a series of incidents targeting pedestrians of Asian descent in the area of Viewmount Drive and Four Seasons Drive area in the west end. Police received two reports of people inside a newer model grey Hyundai Elantra approaching the pedestrians and yelling racial slurs and obscenities.
