I think we need to come close to each as one humanity. We should at least talk and explore those all different skin colors men and women. Not all of them are bad. Not all white are good even so this implies to all other colors too.\n\nThere is love hidden inside everyone and it’s a matter of shaking hand, accepting the way you are. We all are humans and have same feelings, families, kids etc nothing changes if skin color change trust me. Our problems, illness and happiness are same then why do we hate each other. Canada is an amazing country and I love it

LEAVE IT TO SOCIALIST YOUR EITHER AMERICAN OR YOU WISH YOU WERE / THE ONLY COLOR THAT MATTERS IS RED, WHITE & BLUE

I get it I really do, I agree they may come across it MORE, but we ALL get treated that way regardless of color. I’m a white young female and have been followed around stores, been treated more rude than others around me that are maybe dressed nicer than me or look like they have more money, I’ve had different treatment than my peers, it completely just depends on the people we come across, and when we come across them, ect that determine all of it. But I can assure you I have went through the same things as any other color, maybe not as often but it does happen. I wish we could just all love each other, and that means both ways, you can’t judge me because of how the other majority of my color acts or gets treated, the same way you don’t want me to do the same. ?

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

The past was shameful yes! But you cant live in the past. You must move forward. Are white people not also killed? I dont see racism like the US. 100% of the people I see of different colors are kind and respectful to each other. The news media is trying to divide us and I would love to see more challenge them in there attempt.

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.

born a person of color i envied white people with white skin and hated my skin color. later i grew to like my skin color and ultimately myself. it's who i am, a good person inside and out.

lol I worked retail my whole life. We do not follow you because of your skin color, it is usually how you are dressed.... Not once has anyone I have worked with picked someone out for color. We follow just as many whites around who dress like bums as we do blacks.

Let speak truth, Racism is a problem I agree. But it just not all white people. Be truthful, every color has racism I don’t care who you are. So everyone needs to change. Start you U

im a white guy.i like people of all color i hate racism and i think that happends in whole world on diffrent ways!!!but for sake of truth i would like these people to do same test in Africa,China or evry other country where some other races not cocasian are dominant.i think it would be the same thing!!!

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.

So when a store monitors anyone that is non white, it is solely for racial reasons. BS. a retailer has the right to monitor anyone and everyone regardless of race or skin color. so take your unproven assumptions and go to hell.

The soul of many wonderful colors. God's love is in anyone's heart that yields it self. Be careful white skin, heaven receives the pure in heart. Your soul may show the color of hate.

?? Im from Ontario Canada and have always worked management in retail. I've always taught any employees in any department that if you see anyone lingering for any longer than 5 minutes, black, white, or any race for that matter to ask if they need assistance! Again I don't care the color, race, most people that come into a store have come in and know what they're looking for! When I see a customer looking for longer than 5 mins, it's just common practise to ask if you need help. I'd suggest you's re-think this practise that we all are taught in stores

People of color, please stop talking like you're a teenage white girl. Thank you. ;-)

Do not call it Racism call it reason by crimes commited by race in you do not believe me take a walk through a black neighborhood after dark then walk through a white neighborhood after dark no matter what color you are !

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..

My mum is white has 2 bachelors and 1 masters but she cant find a job because of her Russian accent we live in Canada BTW so its not just people of color being discriminated against.

I dont believe this. I'd like proof that they showed the landlord the same income and job history. I believe they made the white guy look better on paper to make a point. If business owners are turning away renters that could make them income, they are just horrible businessmen. I've never been turned away from an apartment or anything else because of my color. I have money to pay, that's all landlords have ever cared about.

If a store owner can see that most of the shoplifters are black or brown. That store owner are most likely to suspect black and brown people.\n\nIf a black man/woman is being harrased by mostly white people, he/she will gradually suspect that most or all white people are racists.\n\n That trend is really common throughout the world.\n\nIt's just that simple. Try to have an open mind and don't judge people because of their skin color. Judge them because of their behavior.

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.

It doesn't matter where you travel. If your color is the minority, you will feel the effects of it. Just try walking into a Indian store or Muslim store as a white or black person. They won't say a word to you even they speak English. Though they will be talking away friendly to there own.

Have you seen the left? Anti white progressives. Less whites and more POCs that is the progressive motto. No one can hire a person because they are qualified, they have to hire because of skin color or sexual orientation.

Subtle racism is bad but there are places in the US where the White dude simply cannot go because of the color of his skin.

Funny im from deh vi st.croix usvi family puerto rican im from deh vi where my brothers n sister come from we are mix black n brown still we go to deh us or where ever they still look at us as thief or up to no good lucky we know our constitution white name is not true cause they from Europe first peeps in amerikka is native get it straight peeps is in deh history books we are all from deh same peeps adam n eve n yet we fail n discriminate others either by color or wealth think before u open ur mind or mouth just saying jah love everyone with a good heart n mind

I might be disciminated just because of my skin color I'm not white.\n\nI might record if I get harrased

I have less problems when people know I'm not white. I feel bad for white people. It must suck being white and passed over for your skin color.

Because the price shows your race point being 1060.00 for others let's them know your color 1050 means white.

The color of her skin is actually white.

Politicians dividing people so they can continue to loot oil and other resources, pay 0 taxes and get hefty tax returns. Why this guy isn't angry at Amazon and Facebook owner not paying a single penny in tax? Or condemning the white supremacist attacks around the world? Or is he a white supremacist himself? \nSuch foolishness. All human beings are equal and it's only the deeds that show our true colors.

Minorities treat whites just riiiggght... People typically treat those of their same color better than others due to being more comfortable. Every race does it. Its experience that makes people act the way they do.

I wanna see what a spanish or black manager with the same strategy and watch what happens. I am the minority in my town and I am white, and trust me I get treated the same as these people but worse. Usually people look out for their own race sometimes its not right but people are dragging out this white people treating colored people wrong, when in fact if I went to mexico in some areas ill be shot dead and thats facts.

People are so blind.. \nThe problem is not the white or the colored. It is the system we live in wich is the point of keeping us devided to control us.

Have they ever done a study on who cheats and trashes rental property, or who does the most shoplifting ? Their color is not White ! It's no wonder these people are followed around by store owners !

I'm a white american woman & have been followed in stores b4 like I'm a thief & that's far from being true I do not steal from nobody nor any stores .So sometime it's not always bout color .When I see some1 following me I stop & confront them then I leave that bad store & go spend my money elsewheres where I'm not treaded bad .

White People’s Always Put Logo To The Color Of The Skin .... Is About Opportunity And Respect Also To Getting Justice The Same For Everyone.... We Are Human ... Nobody Is Better Others ..... Thanks... Gracias

Jealous of so called whites not ever. I love my brown color the most high bless us with.

This test is a bit flawed. I’m white and I have been profiled my whole life. Get rid of the preppy looking white dude a put a white guy in there that has a couple tattoos and your entire test falls apart. With my tattoos I guess you can say I’m a colored person as well.\n\nStereotypes are true... How do you think they become stereotypical. That’s exactly why I get profiled when I enter a bank, store or even a police station. Cops are more prone to pull me over and I understand why. Does that make it correct? No. Is it something that is real and I understand why it happens? Yes..

Being of color is not the problem...white people are the culprits universally. Guess they want the planet to themselves. If everyone else turned the tables on them, it would end in one generation. But who's petty enough to remember and keep it going? Takes a lot of energy.

CBC Stop race baiting. You probably support hating white people for no reason at all. People all say somethings that are wrong; even people of color. Please, all colors of people have flaws. No one is perfect. Please CBC stop throwing stones. I know that you don't care but have an agenda, and I know it is obviously is evil and satanic. This is just my hope to get through to devil worshipers in the media and to see if they will listen to reason.

Yes I ran into racial profiling when I wanted to ask why CBC is biased and won't report fairly. Being white and male, I was told that my opinion is invalid, and in spite of the taxes I pay for their wages, I don't have any say. Moreover, because I am male, CBC's supreme leader Trudeau has dictated I am not allowed any sort of platform. This is an important issue! Why do you think these sterotypes are so prevalent CBC? Crime statistics? Day to day crime by certain groups? CBC hates the question why because it conflicts with their bias as mandated by identity politics. Once I can walk through any place in Canada and not simply see, with my own eyes, the obvious differences between people based on color, or am treated like a direct decendant of slave owners by our state run media, maybe then the forty-thousand years worth of tribal cues ingrained in me will change. Are there really no examples of white men changing the narrative? No exmples you can provide for us devils to follow? No studies on private donors who are trying to help? Maybe it's time for me to stop, as there is absolutely no recognition of my attempts to make changes. The withdrawl of financial support is now my protest against your bias. CBC-peddling division through diversity indoctrination...but you've got hip, edgy music and have vilified the evil white man so there's that...wicka wicka wack yall...

That's because we live in a society where it is embedded in us to conform to certain standards. Black people and other races of color are more suppressed in a sense because of what they have endured and may have to deal with this, especially, more than whites. Subconsciously, a black person is more prone to agree with the white standard that's been forced upon them , causing the answers to have no preference either way. If white people were the minority and lived in a predominantly black society then a white persons answers would also show no preference either way. I wish it wasnt so and hopefully one day, all of us as a whole, can change this idiocy, and come together as one.

Perhaps thieves of color should hire whites to steal for them. Ya know, the kind that do it for thrills. Lol! That way those minority’s can keep the attention of the employees on them instead. And then the whites can steal to their hearts content. Lol! It’s ridiculous but rather realistic. So sad.

I endured racism and I am white with an accent so please stop saying that only colored People get treated I was called all kinds of names I was physically attracted and nobody come to the rescue yet I don’t go around screaming racism all over evil is everywhere .

Rich People don't have colors!! Asian ,Black,White,Brown can get away with almost everything if you are rich!There are two types of people in this world!Bad or Good people!Don't matter where you come from,where you live,what religions you believe in or what races you are!

the people in the American continent and other western countries in Europe which are predominately Christians and liberals are now faced with a difficult challenge; since the free western world allowed the Muslim immigrants from the Muslims and other Arab countries to take refuge in their own countries, now they are engaged in a constant battle against their respective contrasting values, religious principles, and cultural practices....the big question now is which thoughts and culture will prevail? because, unlike the conflict on slavery centuries hence, the issue and concern then was merely black or white people or racial (about color of the skin).....now it is more relatively sensitive, complex and extremely serious......my issue thus, is how can a liberal, freedom loving and religious tolerant western society deal with an intolerant, discriminating, extremely arrogant and most often violent Muslim believers living in their own communities.......Clearly Europe and America is being Muslimized..my worry is that Europeans do not see the semblance between Muslim with communism...both seek to overthrow the prevailing order to fit theirs.

I'm a White woman who dresses well, caries herself well, and is well spoken. I have been accused of trying to steal shoes when just trying them on, and followed in stores at various times in my life. Overall, I'd say I probably do get treated better in certain circumstances, but this doesn't only happen to people of color.

I had a recent experience traveling with friends to Friday Harbor in Washington State near Victoria Island. It was a touristy spot in the PNW. There are 4 of us that day - 3 asians and 1 white . My white friend needed to use the restroom so the three of us went to a tourist information center. When we walked in the two white ladies just ignored us didn’t say hi or anything and we were not paying attention at first until my white friend walked in . one lady immediately got up and greeted him. And when she found out that the white guy is friend with the other 3 asians She started to talk to all of us but the entire time she only had eye contact with my white friend. It was kinda weird for me. It was not a bad experience but you noticed the skin color do make a difference in how people treated you in the US.

there is racism and prejudice everywhere. on every level no matter gender, race, religion, culture. etc. no matter where you go. but if these guys take a trip to any of those corrupted third world backwards countries they would see how good they really have it. us foolish americans canadians dont know how good we have it. we are living in the freest country nation and society ever seen in the history of the world. at least our country creates new laws every year to make our people feel safe. but other islamic countries continue following laws made in the 15th century. do you see and appreciate the difference.\n\nsure people will label you based off your skin tone and your demeanor. BUT WHY? because they have had bad history with those that look just like you. i have had REALLY REALLY bad experiences with asians in everything. so i naturally stay away from all asians and i do not trust them. HOWEVER, i feel when foreigners come to this country they ruin it for the rest of the citizens that are of similar foriegn race eventhough they were born there. WE NEED TO PUT OUR NATIONS CULTURES first. and thats what we have to teach everyone. we put our canada america pride priority and whatever culture we came from LAST. THATS WHY its best we learn to fix our people in a whole in our country before bringing in anymore foreigners who do not respect our nation. lets stop third world immigration and work on making our country great again. so we can stop all this crime in our neighborhoods. because it hinders our progress. once every race color ethnicity of people are acting right then we will have no prejudice based off color or even gender because everyone is giving everyone respect. but because CRIME IS HIGH in all foreign races, and we continue to disrespect eachother. nobody feels safe anymore. whether your light skinned white or black.

People judge based on skin color because of patterns of behavior. Blacks and Hispanics are more likely to be gang associated then a white or Asian. If you want to fix racism, then get rid of the negative behaviors in your race.
