What the security guard says is interesting ... as in his experience some of the racial stereotypes are accurate. Would love to see empirical evidence.

Just wanted to say, I’m a white Christian, and a Brampton resident and a high school teacher in here and I love the diversity of culture that Punjabis bring to the community. I’ve worshipped in Gurdwaras with friends. It’s great. \n\nTo me, this is a testament to what Canada and Brampton has to offer the world. All are welcome!

Say No to Racism....Love Canada :)

Isn’t it something how the media neglects to add the entire Truth? “Illegal Immigrant “ is the most important topic here - as well as the fact that the lefts Claim that the USA is the BIG BAD COUNTRY..... listen to what Canada ?? Says about immigration, they love it as long as people do it the correct way ! \n\n?- where have i heard that before ?

Love it “ So would you say Canada borders are not as open as you say they are. Well they are as long as you follow the rules.”

I live in Houston Texas. People often say that Mexicans take jobs that no one else will do. That may have been true at some point but now that we are overwhelmed by the illegal immigrants every business only hires Mexicans that speak perfect Spanish and not so perfect English. So blacks, whites and other cultures are stuck! If I wanted to live in Mexico I would move there and learn their language why do they refuse to learn ours? I love every Mexican that I have met. I also love water but I do not want to be dropped into the middle of the ocean. There are at least 350 languages spoken in America why are we bending over backwards 2 make our country bilingual to Spanish and not all the other languages?

All the religion is for peace . the problem is bloody politics . hijab is jessus mother dress also .so what you people gonna to say jessus mother. My question who is loving jessys mother christian or muslim woman?\nplaying with innocent people.

They saying true what's wrong in this love Muslims lots of respect and love from China

As a Black Man and a Disabled Man I love Test like this I wanted to give my family a Test like this they refused which says a lot

19We love, because He first loved us. 20If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen. 21And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should love his brother also. \n1 John 4:19-21

The Canadian president is a moron he tries to throw this out for publicity it backfires because he doesn't necessarily live in the poverty and the desperation at Immigrant families living so he doesn't know that when they hear him say something it's going to spread like wildfire and communities are going to shift and things are going to change and then he goes on the defensive sending some a****** to Los Angeles to tell everybody their hopes are false inshort that's all he said at least in this documentary he probably just wanted high-skilled immigrant labor for cheap not blue collar workers and either way Canada belongs and will always belong to indigenous people no matter how many people speak French in that cold-ass funky place from Cali with love we are all citizens of Earth can't wait till this old mentality goes away under the truth

I'm an immigrant and I wish I didn't leave my homeland and immigrated to North America! I'm not saying that in a bad way, but we immigrants suffer a lot when we leave our original countries to live and work abroad! I spent the last 25 years of my life unhappy, alone, lonely and without family! When I talk to my family back home, most of them are living happily while I'm suffering here! You might say, why don't you go back!!! My answer, after living here for 25 years, I don't feel I belong back home and sadly I don't believe I belong here either! \nPeace and love!

Am.. biased of course..but no one has to know right???. Wow.. in my alcohol talking right now,.. but love this Guy/Man.. what can I say except make it happen..!!! ASAP.. B4 I...

growing up in canada, i felt left out in the blk community b/c i am a 5th generation blk cdn on mom's side and 3rd on my dad's - when other black ppl not canadian born met me - i tell them i'm cdn, but i always used to get the question - where are you really from - they were looking for me to say the islands - when i told them my paternal grandma was born in 1901 in canada - that's when the questions stopped. i've been told that b/c i wasn't from the islands, i had no culture in college, but a mbr of the black student society put him in his place i heard he got into a lot of trouble. i was asked what do we eat as in food as canadians what kind of music do we listen to - at our blk canadian weddings, the only carribean song played was hot hot hot by arrow - we played straight up r and b and motown. i hv been rejected by other blk men b/c i'm not west indian enough...it was hurtful. even with 'friends' they made of my cdn heritage but i used to think, why are you making fun of me knowing that my family and ancestors were in canada first - they were 1st generation - i live in the usa now and i'm with an african american man - he has never treated me as if i were different and he loves going w/me to canada. my parents told me it was jealousy on those ppl's parts - one guy i used to be friends with in college, when i went to his house, his mom was from the islands, when she met me - she said, 'you cdn ppl are loud' and that did it for me - i didn't date her son but when he met my parents, they never said any of that crap to him. in the usa, the african americans don't treat differently at all - my ex mom in law thought we were american but decided to live in canada - b/c she was surprised that blacks do live in canada. her other daughter in law's family were from the islands - but she gravitated more to my family and felt comfortable around them more than her family and this ex sis in law would brag about the islands this and that and she would make comments about my looks being skinny and such but it was jealousy - i didn't care much for her b/c she was very insecure. i felt once again, i was a young girl in college again - being around island ppl....i would love to meet drake and ask him did he feel left out and isolated because he wasn't from the islands - he makes me very proud being a blk canadian - his dad is african american and his mom is jewish. i still hv dealt w/racism not much with wht ppl, but with my own ppl - which is quite sad and on top of it-colorism, that also played a part from my family - being called pygmy, chocolate dip, nappy hair - it hurt but these so called relatives, they aren't all that anymore, they had hard lives as children...when ppl see something in you that is special and they don't have, that's when their ugliness shows -

No it’s not easy to come to Canada - you have to go through hoops. That’s a misconception. There aren’t a lot of illegals here which says a lot. We do love immigrants but you do have qualify for refugee status. We do have rules!

Nice! See ya', wouldn't want to be ya'! Head over to Canada they LOVE people who need handouts and illegals! Ooops! Maybe the boy leader isn't authorized to speak like he has been!! It's ironic that Canada is saying it needs to enforce it's laws and yet shame the US for trying to enforce it's laws?

Call me whatever, but India has been dealing with this for a very long time, probably since 1980s. I dont hate islam but I dont love it either. Let's just say that I wouldnt buy a house in Muslim neighborhood. It has been a nuisance to India since a long time, every time we screamed in UN for help. We got shut down until the problem reached world wide. People say it started happening since Iraq and syrian war which is slightly incorrect. This problem has been there since ages prior to war, It just manifested on a high level recently. There are so many examples...This religion feeling which later turns into violence starts with your own house, your upbringing and your own values. If a kid is used to seeing his mom being suppressed then when he grows up, dont expect much from him. Now every community has this issue but in Muslim community it is engraved in you the moment you open your eyes on planet earth. You cannot defend the argument when someone says Women are suppressed in mulsim culture. The most hurtful thing happening is in UK. A country which gave you food, shelter, respect, a better life. You are trying to impose your values on it? As a matter of fact, good muslims should come out openly and boycott these terrorist who are trying to create chaos if they really want to show good intentions but you wont see any (for obvious reasons). They often cry about they being a victim but what about other people?? If all good muslim come out and boycott bad muslims then that would be a thing to appreciate and notice. In last you cant clap with one hand! Remember that.

People just don't get it Muslims hate everyone who is not a Muslim there is no peace with these people, Canada wake up they will pass laws to stop u from saying anything against Islam ????? what ???? ya that's right they are trying to pass a law for this and as we sit on our hands it will get passed...Liberals and CBC are a bunch of Fakenews!!!!!!!! ruining our country Liberals do not care about the white people and our way of life they just want to stay in power.......Finally i'm not sure if anyone in Canada is watching the rest of the world but Immigration of Muslims just destroys countries turns them into civil wars......now the back lash of this post will be i'm racist but i'm white and proud of it i love Canada the way it is and whats wrong with this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who chose to wear nakaab ,you fucking moron & plz for love of God stop saying that Islam is religion of peace

I love those who stand up for others to risk there life ,I am a Pakistani lady living in Canada for 47 years ,lucky me on one say Any thing to me when they ask me where I came From ,I say Palistani My Look is confused them ,My skin coller tea colour !

I just love how these women are asking no to be judged but they get hatred....hate is evil no matter who does it some of these comments come from Nazis Germany Hitler himself couldn't wrote a better hate speech some are completely dehumanizing I mean dam if you say the reason why you hate them is because of THERE religion beliefs and the hatred it has for other religions what the fuck is your religion teaching you

According to Muslims if ISLAM is a peaceful religion then why Muslims leave their Islamic Countries and migrate to Christians Countries and they also like to Christians rules & regulations And why they killed innocent peoples by suicide bombing ... They killed so many innocent peoples and say Islam have a peace and love .......

Muslim lady speaks outside of her house and discusses issues we have with the religion, because of this she fears for her safety from her own community. It shows the deep problems we have with the western values and the Muslim community, yet here we have people tip toeing around the issue saying we have no problem, its religion and beliefs and peace and love and we should just accept all Muslim communities even tho this lady is telling you the problems right in front of your faces. There is so many videos you can find showing that Muslim community neighbourhoods do not want non-Muslim's in there community and they want Sharia law and they are not tolerant to outsiders and anyone that thinks different to them, even those from within there own community. 2 good examples are the town Dearborn, Michigan and Luton Town, UK of just how lack of tolerance for non-Muslim people in Muslim majority communities they have.

i love the comment(this is canada i have freedom of choice to islam) ,your right,and as a canadian born and raised i have the choice to say(fk you we dont want you here!) lets play cowboy n muslim.

how about banning niqabs? niqabs are really unnecessary. We need to see a whole face to identify a person. And wearing a niqab is actually impolite towards deaf and hard of hearing people because they often need to read your lips to understand what you're saying. And I can't believe that any woman would love to wear it because you would constantly smell and breath in your own breath coming from your mouth. So, you actually breath in CO2 all the time, and that can't be very healthy.

Can we agree that we are all human being we should all respect each other either we are black,white or yellow and from either religions?first,  In islam,in The quran there is writted that we should respect christianity, jews.. Or we Will face muhammad(pboh) on The day of judgjment Also we shouldnt make differance between A Man black or white judging by The fact The creation of god. ive saw alot of comment here of threating islam of every kind of names and some muslim calling them morons: you should show sbar to UR feloows, its discusting sriously because of terrorist who could be SEEn as A christian jew hindu or muslim but we Forget The fact that terrorism HAS NO RELIGION, show me one Book where theyve righted to kill ppl??? People have distroyed the name of jihad that means to go ontO A war if and only somewone attacks you,only for auto defense. See im A muslim, I have tons of multicultural friends theyve said alot of things in front of me about islam but i have explained them about MY true religion And theyve agrreed one of them converted and she wore the niqab. Niqab,hijab,burka arent A signification of autority of mans far from there islam supports women and respect them more THAn U can imagine, in the quran No men have right to Touch a women, he should respect her, women should keep their beauty only for their husbands and the mans should lower their gaze!!islam forces no one to do something because once youve read the quran and have the faith the commendmens writted arent A big deall. Everything in the quran is logical and just but the new generation ruined it all. Let me tell you brother and sisters if U see someone that is rich wont U think that their Family is rich too? Its The same thing for islam ppl saw ppl saying that they where muslim and killing ppl beating women and raping poor kids while it is Strictly banned in islam. So I blame muslim who doesnt act well to show example and too all others human who juge without knowing. And just one thing there is alot of ppl that pass themselve as muslim just by putting on A beard and by saying Allah hu akbar .Why cant we live all together why is there that much racism why cant we LOVE and do peace like islam shows and all other religion because their is one god and we all know it next it for U to judge but dont judge without knowing because they could be A girl who look mean but is kind vice versa. On that salam oualeykoum, bye and have A good day and rest of Life . \nMay Allah guide us all. May god guide us all.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

it is a shame to see those hateful comments while we pray that may God keep peace in Canada, when we pray in Mosques.\nI'm a Saudi living in Canada. I don't understand how we welcome Canadians to our communities without forcing them to leave their religion but we face that when we come to Canada. **Terrorism has no religion**\n\nIn the past, christians had some terrorist groups and it was crazy but it's ignorant to say Christianity is about terrorism! Now we have crazy groups but that's not us! they use the name of islam and they manipulate verses to do their greedy ugly work.\n\nBTW Canadians should feel ashamed, because they treat Native Amercians like shit, and they still do << quoted from white Canadians! \nthey took their land,,, took children away from their parents to foster homes. this is taught in Canadian universities in a class called Aboriginal Studies.\n\nturn off the TV and go read about islam. I have a white Canadian friend who converted into islam. and she is VERY happy about it.. and i have so many other non muslim friends... we love each other and care for each other.

just ask them what they religion teaches? I don't understand how people can love that religion and follow it! So much brain washing, and I don't care what they say, but what they do is matter!!!! and what they do, what they believe is absolutely against everything we stand for!!! We are all infidels in their eyes, they hate our freedom, and they are trained for our destruction! They are encouraged to lie and deceive us for their purposes! So, don't listen what they are saying, watch what they are doing all over the world! Our president trying to protect us!!!! Praise for Him! Media is a big protocol in those people hands who wants war around the globe

So basically what these two nikabi girls are saying is that we won't show our faces to others but our male child will do love jihad and have non muslim girl friends and then convert them. These girls are so brain washed that they don't understand that Islam is a cult which was created to occupy and never allow to leave by the pedophile child molester of aisha at the age of 9 mohammed.

 England will wake soon and god help them who think like PIGS you say you fight in name of  Masha'Allah but yet you love in hate and seek on many lands and turn or back on home land you dont fight for love you fight hate a true follower in there god who ever there shows love and helps the people who die from lack of food ,illness,cold ,lack of clean water . all  religions over the world have the same word GOD

Your wrong. You stated that we had a 99% DNA similarity. The raison we say that we are animals is because of people like you who might be a little to hairy. AGAIN, WE DO NOT SHARE SIMILAR DNA. We have physical characteristics of animals (ex: the abilities to keep our blood temperatures at certain lever) Islam is about peace, love, equality, justice, freedom, happiness, reason and purpose. You have no reason to exist, people like you live, eat, shit, money money, sex, drugs, party and die.

I live in London but I'm not Brit and I truly love this Country,but there's no way a bunch of muslim can tell me not to have a beer while waiting for the bus.Should I visit some islamic town I'd never say a man hey don't wear those clothes or cut that beard.If you were not born in here but you want to live here well then respect the society who's hosting you and get a life.Muslims,get a life for god's sake and stop with the sharia bullshit.
