Where do I begin? "African-Canadians" should be in quotation marks, since you're referencing the term, and not actually using it in the sentence; you misspelled "admit", and that last ... sentence, is just a mess of horrid punctuation. This may be like shooting fish in a barrel for Grammar Week, but it still had to be done. I'm just glad it was me.

Dude, come on. A sentence in parenthesis still has to follow basic grammar rules. You must capitalize the first word, and use proper punctuation (you missed the comma after "Also", and the period after "shown".) You have failed this city.
