Only about a year left of this CLOWN. He will be the worst footnote in Canadian politics..People need to stop voting based on look and social media and promises of free shit. Although we do have citizens, illegals and immigrants lined up to vote for him so they get their free ride. Pathetic. How about we only let in those who apply, want to learn ENGLISH and want to work>?  in other words bring in 1,000,000 more hard working Phillipinos and banish the African-Middle East shit disturbing turds.  Turdhole has got to go !!  MCGA !!

I have literally walked into an interview and the interviewer told me they called me because they liked my name. I am African American but I was named after a Russian figure skater. Needless to say I did not get that job. Le'siiighh

Humams came from one race : Africans . Humans' sin cause racial discrimination!

Funny how we have Chinese American, African American, native American...then just whites?, not European whites...every other race has where they are from lol.

I got a preference of African American over European American\n(I’m white from Europe not America)

Helloo racism doesn't exist it's good people bad people \nA world of white good NG to cater to white a African tribe b prefers African tribe b but not African tribe. C..we all look out for our own kind

Who is taking rights and property away from anyone today? It's the South African africans. Blacks in North America and England live as free as anyone. Opportunities are available for all with the desire and work to achieve. For success stay in school, get a starting job, keep that job until you find a better job and don't have a baby until you are married. \nLook ahead at how far you've come not how hard it was to achieve.

I'll lay it out for you: Me: typical middle of the road liberal oriented Canadian. Non white, immigrant (I wasnt born here) I worked in a Refugee housing for over 4 years in Ontario. Most were not war areas refugees (Yes I know there are other types of refugees). I only encountered few refugees from war areas. ONLY 1 person from Iraq, about 2 families were from Afghanistan, 1 couple from Pakistan(I doubt they were real refugees they spoke fluent English, maybe political refugee), and a most from African countries. Its too far for real refugees to get here. Its Easier for them to go to other countries nearby or Europe. MOST SEEM TO BE ECONOMIC REFUGEES. Most were coming from Africa. Some are coming from Latin America, which shouldn't be happening. Once they showed up at our doorstep and we processed them into the system, they were immediately in the same class as a Canadian resident homeless person if they were making a refugee claim. We get money to house and feed them (from the government), and they are given a stipend for basics from the government processed through the Social Assistance/ Welfare system (they get less than a resident/citizen I think.). They then have to get their case processed by the refugee board, and most seem to get in. I've only heard of few getting sent back. One person I know at our facility, was given a subsided social housing apartment after a year in our facility. So they went straight from a shelter to a government/city owned subsidized apartment. (Didn't seem like it was a issue for the housing worker...they didn't report it (if they were not the ones that helped the person to get it), they were white, the housed person was Latin. This refugee claimant, and then month or two new Canadian resident person was given an apartment in a prime area of the city, instead of the 1000's of Canadians, those who came before them, and born Canadian citizens on an extremely long waiting list. How this was allowed to happen I don't know. The person was probably sucking on someone's straw. I'm just trying to think the barriers these people have to go through to get a job here. We are far removed from the time of the 80's and 90's., and housing and jobs are so hard to get. Lol the "Canadian government asks them to repay the traveling cost to Canada if they are sent back"....I wonder how much the government recoups?.....more like 0 probably. What a bunch of crap. How do you demand someone to repay their flight cost when they get back to their country?

Can't really blame the shop keepers, here in aus we have problems with africans shop lifting and robbing milkbars and liquor stores

there are more BLACK AFRICAN AMERICANS in the USA , THAN PPL FROM MUSLIM COUNTRY, , but remember MILLIONS OF BLACKS WERE DRUG HERE AGAINST THEIR WILL AND ENSLAVED, SO WHY WOULD YOU ASK OUR RACE TO HELP DEFEND ANY TYPE OF RACE HATE, ARE YOU KIDDING, I REALLY THOUGHT ALL THESE PPL WENT TO CHURCH AND BELIEVED IN GOD. HOW YOU GONNA ASK BLACKS TO HELP THROW OTHER RACES OUT OF THE USA. ANY PERSON IN AN ELECTED OFFICE THAT SAYS OR PROMOTE SUCH AN IDEAL, IS UILTY OF AN ACT OF TREASON AGAINST THE UNITED STATES, CAUSE LOTS OF DIFFERENT RACES HAVE DIED IN WAR FOR THE LEGAL RIGHT TO BE HERE. PERIOD.

I got a moderate preference for African Americans, which isn't surprising since I am an African American.

the white woman who had aprefrence for african american seemed so upset.

I looked up the test. It biases everything 'good' and 'white' with right hand motion and everything 'bad' and 'African desent' is done with the left hand. Yes those are the actual test terms. Since the majority of people are right handed ...

Why would the white lady have a bias against African Americans when she is Canadian? Stop trying to slip black people into this. People in Canada are african and Caribbean. Get your facts together.

i always prefer euopeans over africans. who doesnt??

The only Blacks allowed to live in Canada are those that are from the Caribbean Islands as part of North America and the Royals as Knights of Canada who are Black Indians as Métis and they are the famous Singers in Toronto and also famous Hollywood Actors. Nobody else is allowed to be here except Black Americans but they never are here in Canada. The only time we ever had African Americans in Canada were the ones using the Underground Railroad to escape Slavery in southern USA from English Slave traders in the South. They were here in Toronto in 1814 and stayed for 13 months and then left again as it is too cold here for Africans and they got help to avoid Andrew Jackson and his slave traders to escape back to Africa to the Ivory Coast. That is the only real Black African History of Canada. There is no other. The people in this video are all Arab Fakers shaped to look African Canadian. We had ?? Jamaicans living here in Toronto as temporary refugees because of mob takeover in Kingston Jamaica. That was done on Judgement Day as they all as he'd. The mob there were Nigerian Scammers who were part of the script to take over the King's Town against the Royals. On occasion there were Lawyers studying here in Toronto from Trinidadand Tobago who are very nice and I met a couple one at the Crown Attorneys Office where I worked and I befriended her and she is Court Justice in Trinidad when needed. And the other is from Tobago and she worked as the lawyer at the law firm where Gabriel Macht and Patrick J. Adams worked as the real lawyer in the TV series Suits filmed in Toronto. It was too dangerous though for her to work with the walking bomb clones of Megan Markle and Sarah Rafferty coming in to the office so she left and I had to take over her role as the Black Lawyer in Suits so by Season 3 I had to take over almost completely but she did a lot of the lawyering scenes and really deserves the credit as a really good lawyer who us real. She won the Emmy and deserved it as the only Female Black Actress to win any Award ever. So congratulations to her as a great Actress. We tried to keep t manipulation of Megan Markle to a minimum but dud include what she was attempting to do off camera to get into Harvard Law to one up Patrick J Adams who she discredited as a Harvard Law Graduate. She was always a problem for the Crown Attorneys in particular him as her target. I was targeted by her as well when studying at UofT and so I know from her behaviour off camera the real nastiness she has as Arab of Dubai toward us as Royals as Canadians. It really is a hatred and jealousy. Unfortunately the Arabs are War Criminals of being unknown largely as part of WWII so their animosity seems to be modern but it really is a very long standing Jealousy of Jesus. Anyway all of the real Caribbean Islanders all passed Judgement on Judgement Day and God brought them home to the Islands. Queen of Canada ? Royal Chieftain of Indians of America ?? who is Métis

This is a great documentary. I assumed Canada was very inclusive and multicultural. I never heard about slavery in Canada or racism there. As an African-American woman I want to know all about the experiences of BLACK PEOPLE all over the world because we are connected. Many of our families were torn apart during slavery. Most of us can’t trace our history five generations. I’m glad we have YouTube to find information through documentaries like this one.

I'm 55 yrs old Puerto Rican who's lived in NYC USA my entire life, I don't nor I have ever dressed like a gangsta, never acted like one and always dressed casually decent, but every freakin time I wallk into any store I am immediately tagged as a potential shoppe lifter and its always by my own kind or african american, what I do to get even is I pull out a bunch of cash money and pause for a few seconds in front of the cash registers and count the money and walk out the door without purchasing anything

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 -

White sand beaches, rainforest, snow-capped mountains, fertile ground nobody from Latin America is a refugee. Including Cuba. They are Economic opportunist not refugees. It took 400 years of History to build America. Now Latinos are pouring into America demanding jobs and rights they don't have in your own country. Refusing to learn English screaming solo Espanol. Call Donald Trump a racist but have no problem setting up racist ethnic cleansing zones against African-Americans.

this price for invading other nation for more than hundred years and keep initiating chaos on middle-east and african countries. Now EU will become black nation.....you get what you invest

Canada doesn't like Hispanics because they are part white and have a Christian Catholic background. If he was African or a Syrian who worships Allah he could stay

Very Informative! It would be nice to know about African American & African Canadians.

African Americans are so full of hate, they hate white people, they hate black immigrants and they also hate each other.

Started from the bottom.. lol.. African American Cash Money Records.. Love one another, case with the divisions.. Newsflash: the world doesn't care what kind or shade of Black you are! Only love conquers hate...

There are tons of successful blacks in Canada, not all of them are like Drake's dad wo goes to prison or runs out on his family. There are plenty of successful Jamaicans in Canada that are highly successful. Jamaicans and other of African Descent are doctors, lawyers, schoolteachers, engineers, IT REPS, mechanics, accountants, biochemists, cops, and so much more. That's because they have chosen to do the right things in life. Life is all about choices. People who are successful in life, are successful because they made good choices and good decisions early on. People who are a failure in life are a failure because they made bad choices early on and life and wouldn't listen to nobody and did what they did without any regard for the consequences. Choices. That's what everything in life boils down to.

Why do Muslims need to live in Canada?\nGo to other Muslim countries.\nYou settle in Canada to upset everyone.\nYou want western rights and freedom but you want to impose your weird ideology there.\nStay in Arab, African or Indonesian regions.

Imperial countries of Europe & USA distablize african countries which forces people to leave or starve or get killed in their countries

Would've been nice to see some Black Quebecers, especially Haitians-Canadians and African-Canadians such as Vivian Barbot, Ulrick Chérubin, Maka Kotto, Boucar Diouf and Michaëlle Jean

Lesson here is Africans would rather run from their problems instead of staying home and solve them.

I am an African-American male. It it not very shocking to me that slavery existed in Canada. However, as a child in school,I was always taught that slaves escaped to Canada. What happened to these former slaves? Unlike the U.S these black Canadians have been able to keep their identity, mainly their name instead of taking the names of their masters.

I am actually shocked to see this information. I did not know. I travelled to Vancouver & Vancouver Island 5X. 2X with my African-American girlfriend. I didn't see any biased behavior at all. Of course, I was not looking for it. We were treated courteously on both sides of the boarder. My grandmother was held as a White slave for most of her youth (indentured servant) in Canada. So, I knew through her that it was one of the possibilities. I am sorry to learn of it. This is a great issue for Americans to get over.

The british government and America is the worst jihadist how can u over throw Gaddafi the only hope of Africans, who was murdered just because of of his dreams to Unite Africa, Kick almighty US dollar in Africa, built standard rails system to connect neighbour hood, separate Africans from GCC, OCC, IMF, ICC, USC, PFDD, FTT and so on.\nInfants may the spirit of Gaddafi punished his enemies + those who created mess across Africa.\n\n\nfools

This is what African's leaders has keep leader's of tomorrow's please where is African> going?

I took one of these tests years ago, and I wasn't surprised to find out I had a moderate preference for African Americans over European Americans, because I was born and raised in Detroit, but I also found out I saw Asians as 'Less Foreign' than White people... Years later, I ended up marrying a Chinese/Vietnamese guy. I wonder sometimes if those two things are related. XD;;;

I have seen lots of racism but it is usually Chinese vs Japanese, Jamaican vs Africans, Punjabi vs white, french, black, arab...Ismaili vs anyone else, Muslim vs anyone else. I have also seen a lot of racism vs philipinos and mexicans even though they are the friendliness.

Did any of you do the test? I got no automatic preference between European and African American. As expected :)

i just finished taking the racial bias test on their website and my results were 'No Automatic Bias Towards European Over African American'

Why is it that Asia is for Asians, Africa is for Africans but the white countries are for EVERYONE ?????

The woman who is married to a Brit and has a slight preference to African Americans to European Americans appears not only disturbed, but confused and disgusted. That is another form of prejudice - the idea that they being white would prefer black people.

Great documentary CBC. From an African American from Philadelphia.

I am from Serbia. Apart from African students and secutity in front of American embassy, we do not see a lot black people in person. And anyone who see them would be amased. Also, we see Asians only in Chinese stores. They are known to sell low quality products, pay no taxes and disappear after shop is closed.

White supremacy have a different mentality far away from general cultural populous. & what’s curious how they morph their truly discriminative behaviour, they could be nice and friendly at the same time depending the circumstances. \nThey believe that people of color no matter if you are Chinese, African, Latino, native etc. “Should be below their shoulders” they believe that other races don’t belong in their pack, meaning; that they oversee their communities with their own genre unless you have monetary to influence their hysteria. They see dark color people with mental inabilities - Lack of harmonious duties of sophistication. Many of them see danger when see a colored human being. Many of the white supremacists believe that their society is in jeopardy with the global cultural changes & feel the need to reclute or involve others to their mental frame.

I am a South African man who has many Muslim friends. I am appalled by the actions of these patrols all over Europe. Do these people not see that they are causing Islamophobia. If you want people to convert to your religion and embrace it, then show them that it is a peaceful and beautiful religion. But if you are patrolling and bullying people and other radicals are beheading and using suicide bombs, then there is nothing peaceful about that. These patrols are killing the idea of a peaceful religion.

LOL that brown guy got the tests results showing he favored europeans better than african americans, yet everytime he's profiled it by a european LMAO

If you're Moslem and you want Sharia law please leave Canada, leave Europe go where you belong: the African desert

Wow Harvard says I have a Strong Preference for European Americans and I have a Strong Connection to African Americans and Violence. Dang.

You are not a Muslim Canadian you are Canadian \nYou are not FRENCH Canadian you are Canadian\nyou are not African Canadian you are Canadian\n\nand so forth and so on....end of discussion you are only CANADIAN,\nyou don't create a diverse society by segregating yourself out from the start.\n\nI was born in Germany I left with my parents because of quality of life and unemployment..... I am now Canadian and I don't go calling myself German Canadian.....I respect my background and heritage but its not what I am today.

I just took the test. I'm from the Denver metro area.. and I have a slight automatic preference for African Americans. I'm white, and 1/16th Chippewa on my mom's mom's mom's side. Interesting.
