WARNING: Story contains graphic language
A woman has been fired from her job after a video of a racially charged argument between her and what appears to be a group of four men in a Lethbridge, Alta., restaurant garnered strong reaction online.
"Well shut your f--king mouth then, cause you know what, you're dealing with a Canadian woman right now and I will leap across the table and punch you right in your f--king mouth," the woman says at the start of the video.
"You're the one who started," a man can be heard saying in response.
The five-minute, 14-second video was posted Tuesday night and had been viewed more than 120,000 times by midday Wednesday. It shows the two sides arguing back and forth, with the woman accusing the men of "not being Canadian."
The two sides are seated in adjoining booths and the woman stands up several times, threatening to strike the men.
"Go back to your f--king country; we don't need you here," she says.
"It doesn't matter, we're all Canadians," a man responds. "We're all the same, you're a human being, I'm a human being."
