“Shut your (expletive) mouth,” her rant begins. “‘Cause you know what? You’re dealing with a Canadian woman now, and I will leap across this table and punch you right in the (expletive) mouth.”

Pocha doubles down on her tirade when the men try to shrug off the verbal assault with laughter.

“Go back to your (expletive) country,” she continues.

The men respond, saying, “It doesn’t matter, we’re all Canadians,” while the woman repeatedly interrupts the man. “Yes, we’re all the same — I’m a human being, we’re all human beings.”

The exchange continues for almost two minutes as the woman hurls questions and insults, telling the men not to “talk down” to her while she attempts to stand on the booth as her male companion tries to restrain her.

Some commenters online are calling for a boycott of the restaurant and the chain. Posts of support have started circulating using the hashtag #WeAreAllCanadian.

Omerzai said the incident has deeply upset him.

“The hate that we get from people for no reason, just to have a dinner there. It shouldn’t turn out to be like that,” he said.

Pocha was fired from her job at Cranbrook Dodge on Wednesday after the video went viral.

“We have recently become aware of a disturbing video that involves one of our employees,” the dealership’s owner Dave Girling said in a statement.

“The employee in question has been terminated and we deeply apologize for her actions.”

Lethbridge police chief Robert Davis spoke Thursday saying that at the time of the incident there was insufficient evidence for charges.
