Kingsdale Advisors Takes a Stand Against Racism

TORONTO & NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kingsdale Advisors releases the following statement addressing the issue of anti-black racism.

“For over 17 years, Kingsdale Advisors has sought to lead by example. Our multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, multi-faith team has risen to the top of our field because we celebrate and encourage diversity. But to celebrate and encourage is no longer enough. We must condemn and denounce racism, in all its forms.

“Kingsdale believes that the systemic anti-black racism that has been allowed to persist and excused for too many generations must end. We can no longer tolerate murder to be called an accident. Or allow socio-economic factors and skin colour to determine how the law will apply.

“We can also not say this fight is too big or the challenge too great and accept that ‘this is the way it is’.

“At Kingsdale we will meet this challenge. Enough is enough. It’s time for change.

“Are you with us?”
