This is really ridiculous that the Premier of Quebec and Ontario are pretending that this is not happening? Not just towards black comunity, is against brown people, against latinos, and the special of all indigenous and of course against against lgbtq and against anyone that is not white... and this is in a very covert way they will ask people of your minority comunity to harass you and discriminate on you so the white lords are not going to be blamed of discrimination and harassment... but behind of all this is always a white person either a man or a woman pretending that they don’t know but they are actively engaging in constantly attacking and diminishing minorities

White culture isn't the dominant culture what the heck was that? And what history books are they reading out of? Completely and utterly false with scientific proof to debunk that outrageous statement. The only thing that she is correct about is the illusion that white culture is the dominant culture. The oldest human remains know to mankind is from ethiopia. A man and a woman this is fact. With just that one example, logically how in the world what she said would even be entertained. As a college grad myself who majored in social science what the heck was that? Its also a little funny that people think that way because its so so so ignorant. Reading is fundamental lol.

Racism can go either way. Remember the 2008 Beijing Olympics? A Chinese man racist towards Caucasian stabbed and killed a white guy then committed suicide by jumping off a building... It's human nature to hate each other. Hatered is what keeps humans mortal. If one is to reach immortality one must move beyond it.

This isn’t surprising. His view on Asian women is likely “They are submissive to the white man” which is somewhat true. However when she didn’t bow down to him, his true colors came out

This man is FOOLISH POLITICIAN OF CANADA,he's completely biased towards his religion. I SUPPORT THAT WHITE GUY . ?

Fearless brown man against a racist white man. Sikhs are lions.

Canadian use the Confederate flag as well it's part of white man culture

The white mans issue is that their daughters love that bbc lol and some of their sons also lol

Funny I’m from a small town\nAnd I’ve been going to the same gas station/corner store for like over 15 years and this new guy follows me and watches my every movement...and when these white kids I know are trouble makers he doesn’t do a thing lol the store owner actually told him “oh he’s okay I know the family” because he noticed the new guy watches my every move and I let it go for weeks but the owner told him I’m okay and he had this look like he wasn’t convinced lol needless to say he quit and now works at another store across town..another place I go to lol I said “hi man! Don’t like the area at the other place?” Lol just had to bug him because he’s uncomfortable around other races and it’s painfully obvious that he is lol

Coming from the white woman with dreads and the white man in camo. Have good hearts people♡

Now try a white man in a colored area or colored country. I bet if a white person went to colored area omg we be chassed out

All this proves are people can't speak there mind without someone trying to fight you its crazy why don't they do this with a black man or woman yelling a white people its so crazy how much this helps spread hate.

To all the blacks complaining about how badly Canada is treating them, it would make sense to go back to their equatorial paradises, where in the absence of the white man, their governments/leaders have been traditionally very kind and caring.

more than the white man

I liked Sham he seemed cool, but the middle on has a chip on her shoulder. First of all regarding the Oscars, I didn't think US was that good and you don't really think I hope that you should be awarded just because you're black? that's very racist period. I also think that example of a tweet you showed, was the worst piece of garbage that anyone could say and so unlike the average white person. I also think that racism against black people is against your YOUNG BLACK MAN. Who glorify gangs, guns, violence drug dealing. You guys know this is true. We and no one else has any problem with Black people, or Chinese, or any other culture if you are respectful, hardworking, intelligent. You are different, so am I and everyone else so what? Racism exists against White people too, we just don't talk about it because you've done a good job to Cower us.

Live to the same standars as the white man maybe you'll have some defence.

As a white man, we should just voluntarily surrender the land we stole to the natives once and for all. Time to find our own place to go. Its the only way to legitimately make this right. |\nProgressives can pander all they want with acknowledgements, self serving pretentiousness, exc. but its just as worthless as those who deny and think we've moved humanity forward. Progressives are no better. If anything they are worse trying to have their cake & eat it too. \nEither you correct a wrong or convince yourself your actually 'doing something' through words. Time to give this land back & for us whites to go back to wherever our families came from. Critical theory is the only way forward in this century.

Im a white male an i worked at AutoZone , my manager who was black use to make me check on people in the store like that. 98% of the time i was told to watch black people by a black man the other 1% was druggie white people an Spanish

Anyone annoyed racism is painted as a white man issue when it's white period? White woman included! Lol. But that's just white racism. Eurasia as a whole, Asians, have entire cultured based on racism against Africans and the brown skinned natives of their homes. Oh well. Let's pretend white women are innocent. Funny.

As a fellow black man I think we've all had to deal with the you fit the description story. As a teen I almost missed my school bus one day and less than 300 ft. from my house a female white cop stops me with the you fit story. I think what saved me was the fact I had my backpack on.

where do you start with people like this. She really believes that Canada belongs to her. Did you go to an all white Canadian White School. When you was a kid growing up. ? At what point did you start to notice that you was a different colour to other people. When you can answer that question honestly..... then you will probably realise your the one with the problem. \nIf we are to follow history it was the white man that started to travel and from there on it was nothing but destruction. \nI wonder what will be written on your urn when you pass away and you are no longer apart of this world..... \nIn this urn lies a true Canadian . Oh s#¥t you've gone back to the earth. \nWhat you don't seem to realise is all this crap is politics \nWhen someone says to me go back to where you come from. (I'm already there. ) and my reply is take your small mind and what you claim to be your country. And shove it where the sun doesn't shine because the world belongs to me. \nI don't think you'll understand what that means and here endeth the lesson. Drops the ? Oops

Of all the people in Canada who are convicted of shop lifting, what are the proportions of whites, latinos, blacks or aboriginals? Are shopkeepers justified in their suspicion? We hear a great deal about racism, but never any comparative statistics that prove or disprove it. What I am trying to say is: is there any reason why this prejudice exists in the first place?\nIn Edmonton a few years ago an aboriginal man died of a stroke while waiting for triage in a hospital emergency area. IF I remember correctly, police and hospital staff alike assumed he was drunk, not suffering a stroke. I think the chances of someone in a downtown lower east side area being drunk is much higher than having a stroke. So staff just assumed he was drunk. \nIf more people of all ethnic backgrounds behaved more like whites would that suspicion disappear? I wonder if there is a logical and reasonable explanation for why shop keepers feel they way they do.

Why not go undercover among blacks and coloreds and let us hear what they say about whites? I am a black man and in my opinion the only people I hear racism from every day are black people.

I think in like these schools or job positions it should be about the skills of the person not the race or gender. If for example 2 people apply to a job and one is black and one is white and the white one gets picked because of his skin color then that shouldn't be acceptable. But let's say that the white guy had better skills in that exact position than the black man then i think the white guy should be picked. It's about the skill not gender race etc.

This country was stolen from the Indian and the whites just do as they want to do. If the whites could live on the moon and the moon already had their people on it the white man would go there and just take over because they feel their the privileged people.

I am not white man, but I don't really mind racism, it's everywhere, in every country, and within one country among different races, we all know it, all the immigrants who are living in North America, whichever country we came from, in those countries there are racism too between different ethnic groups, as long as someone does not harm others on racial grounds then it's ok

Most of black man with white women.

I am a male white man . I am 57 years old . I was born in Canada . At a store that I was shopping at , 2 employees showed up within 2 minutes and was watching me from a distance of 15 feet from me while I was looking at wallet's . I felt a tingling feeling at the back of my neck . I had a difficult time to figure out what wallet that I was going to buy . I was there between 15 - 20 minutes . Both of them stayed near me , watching me until a found the right wallet to buy . I bought the wallet . To me that was wrong for both of them to do that because neither of them approached me and asked if I needed any help .

Let me ask. If you walk by a lonely road and at a particular spot you almost get bitten by a snake. The next time you get to that point, what will you do? It is called subconscious programming.. Now racism of any type (black on white, white on black, , Arab on white, arab on black, etc etc) is wrong. The bible is easy and to the point: The heart of man is desperately evil. Blessed are those who realise this early and trust in the righteousness of Jesus and not theirs. The recent covid 19 toilet paper/panic buying saga has at least revealed to many just how they really are.

18:37: “Sometimes you just have to tolerate that behaviour a little bit.”\nBut why should people “tolerate it” weren’t we all taught the same lessons in kindergarten too speak up when someone was treating ourselves or other unfairly? I truly do not understand this sentence. It’s said by a white person so maybe he just isn’t getting it. I understand that It’s not easy to put yourself in someone else shoes, but come on man. Don’t tell people of colour to “just tolerate it” in fear of coming off as a SJW. That’s how the bullies win. Buzzwords can’t hurt you but racial profiling dose and has.

Remember, We as the humanity of this Planet that it is our ‘white ‘ brothers of the Earth who ‘taught’ ‘separatism’ and spread this inhumanity throughout our world. Although, every man upon this earth has lived as a ‘male white’ in many many embodiments from our beginning of time upon our Earth. In order words, everything wrong is the creation of all un- ascended mankind of Planet Earth.

Leland i cried when you said you were jealous of the white man .be proud of who you are from this white man who is sad to be one.

And why is Canadian government taking so much refugees from Africa and middle east if they know that many Canadian are racists towards blacks and Asians, racists people are just ignorance and they don’t want to accept their denial of the racists. Example I didn’t know that there’s different between humans and we are all humans but not kind of aliens from somewhere, as human being we should have just live together and treat people like we treated ourselves rather than hating others because of their skin color. Am African man and here in Africa we don’t have such things as black or white but we are all humans and we all believe that all humans are equal and it doesn’t matter whether you’re white or black..

I’m white (European French), ow Canadian but grew up in Oakland, Calif, had a black boyfriend in High School and now have a black daughter in law so I’m comfortable and familiar with many racial issues. When Kathleen mentioned she felt uncomfortable with a white man touching her hair and saying it was beautiful, I thought that was taking her perceived racism over the top. If she had been white with the same hair only blonde it would have been equally uncomfortable. I completely agree that racism is rampant and terrible, I see it frequently but it’s important to not make Everything about racism.... that can become a problem in itself

jesus was a white man, it starts from there

Ok nest time dont send anyone into spy on a store and tell them to take a bag or back pack into the store, You sent a black man with a back pack into a store or white or Chinese or anyone like come on!?

Quit watching it not even minute and you can already see him race-baiting. The lady told the white man that the price was not set but it would be roughly around 900. The other guy came and and she gave a set price of 930 and tried to insinuate that it was cuz our racism. She said it was around nine hundred for the white guy didn't put a set price. Secondly white people get followed around in stores just as much as blacks. does it matter what color you are hang out in Walmart too long and see how many people start following lol.

I am a fully grown white man and I called white boy on a weekly basis. So I agree racism is wrong.

Never in my life I would ever ball down do any white man Dr beneath me and my culture

This message is to Leland Native American I am able making myself and how dare you say that you are jealous of that white man know this is our country it's not there's just because you're in Canada and their Canada know you make sure that you never see that again because no wipers and it's boil is going to be better than us take that to the bank

In the meantime, my people in Africa will literally twist themselves into pretzels to make even the lowliest white man feel like a long lost cousin who just returned home. ?

Psychology student here. In the interest of accurate information, I would like to point out some flaws I find with some of the studies in this documentary and question the conclusions reached. I understand that CBC Marketplace are not personality psychologists and therefore cannot be expected to produce the same quality of work as a scientist. However, I think it is worthwhile to think critically about the information in the media that we consume. I am also open to anyone who wants to engage in debating the contents of this documentary.\n\n\nThe following are some notes I took while watching the documentary outlining the individual hypotheses of the studies I think are flawed and descriptions of their respective accompanying errors. \n\n\nThere are three possible research questions, and thereby dependent variables, being answered by the apartment hunting studies.\n1. If there is no discrimination between the white man and the first-nations man, then they should get equal treatment, including quotes and availability, when apartment hunting. \na. Could the gender of the landlord be a confounding variable (perhaps men are more discriminatory than women)? \n \n2. If there is no discrimination between the white man and the first-nations man between Toronto, Montreal, Regina, and Victoria, then they should get equal treatment, including quotes and availability, when apartment hunting. \na. Could total apartments visited be a confounding variable? (4 in Toronto, 3 in Montreal, Regina, and Victoria) \nb. Could the gender of the landlord be a confounding variable (perhaps men are more discriminatory than women)? \nc. They only showed the black man apartment hunting in some of the trials. I am considering him out of the study for consistency purposes. The first-nations man is the only one who got unfair treatment in the footage of apartment hunting. \n \n3. Possible hypothesis: If male landlords/agents are more discriminatory than female landlords/agents, then the white man and the first-nations man will get different treatment at different Canadian apartments in equally diverse cities. \na. Don’t know all the information about the genders of the landlords/agents, not all the footage is shown, but the ones where they get ripped off are male. The others shown are female. The remaining interactions are not shown.\n\n\nThere are also some factors that may have influenced the racial bias survey and, in my estimation, rendered it scientifically unreliable.\n\n\n1. The bias survey and accompanying tests at the CBC attributed the differences between the studies to unconscious racism. What if it was just due to familiarity with certain racial groups over others? \na. The black participants had no bias between European-American and African Americans, supposedly indicating no racism, while the white and first-nations participants did, supposedly indicating racism. Is it possible that another interpretation of this result is that bias is a function of familiarity: that we are comfortable with the majority demographic in the geographical location we live in, as well as our own kind. Therefore, the black guys are less biased against black people due to being both black and living in a white majority demographic? \nb. The participants took the survey knowing the objectives of the researchers was to study racial discrimination. They might have influenced the answers they gave \nc. Whether the participants agreed with identity politics or not was a confounding factor that was not controlled . You can only be racially unbiased biased if you think that racial identity is a means of accurately viewing the world. People who do not believe in the existence of identity politics may answer the questions quite differently, which could be a different reason for the results.\nd. I took the study myself. The words that participants were required to match were a mix of adjectives and nouns. It is known within psychology that nouns have higher levels of imagery. This was not properly controlled and therefore is another confounding variable. \n \nAll the other studies looked fine to me. I welcome any discussion on my observations.

I think this is contextual. I mean if the Chinese man was in China, he'd not have to feel jealous of a white person. It's the fact that he is Chinese in a predominantly white place that makes him feel this way. That's why I stick to my islands!

I'm a white man with dreadlocks.. I'm constantly being discriminate against.. by shop keepers and the police..

Your own people treat you the same way light skin act like I'm better than you going to better schools marrying white man disrespect black man sad Linda j peace ❤️ ?? ?? ?? free

So if the white man is offered assistance by an employee then they're just being helpful.. Now if the same happens to the black man, then it's horrible racism...

This is very unscientific compared to other Marketplace investigations. i have had worse things done to me by hispanic security guard at Safeway. I am white. i refused to provide my receipt to guard who singled me out after this happened to me multiple times, see below. they detained me for 15 minutes. I called the Berkeley police. Instead of arresting them for false imprisonment Police told me I was banned from store and would be arrested if I return. I have video. Wonder if that would go viral? No, I’m white. Also accused of stealing by Asian american deli workers at Safewat in SF. I have video of that. In that case black security guard backed me up in my claim that I brought in the rye bread from outside that I asked my sandwich be made with. At another Safeway in SF the Eastern European deli manager got the black security guard to single me out to produce my receipt. I showed it to him. A few days later I saw a black man walk in that Safeway and go to the expensive cold drinks area, open a bottle and start drinking it. I alerted the store workers but they refused to ask him fir his receipt because they had not personally seen him steal it. I had nit stole anything but that did not prevent them from asking this white dude or accusing me falsely in 3 different Safeway stores.

But Canada isn't white man's land to be discriminating against anyone tbf..

I am never walking close 2na white man he most likely is a killer

Why not bring the white man threw a urban environment where he is a minority. Oh I guess they don't want to show that kind of racism that would be contrary to their agenda
