Canadians think they Americans lol

Can you show the professor to Belgium please. I prefer a Canadian over an American or a German because our racism exceeds all borders. On a daily basis I experience black racism on an unheard scale. People come to me and explain they feel totally excluded from our society even when they contribute to it by (mostly manual) hard labor and social or political engagement. Maybe a Canadian profile could get some acceptance in Belgium. Same thing goes for Hindi, Asian and Muslim people. I cannot contribute more than launching a very urgent and serious appeal because I am not qualified in my society. Thank you very much to clean up our mess. I heard we have a caucasian Russian in the Euro Parliament but I did not check that.

poor u Europeans Americans Russians Australians Canadians all racist you need to loot

Can I ask you why is it that the vast majority of Canadians will visit America but Americans don't usually visit Canada?

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.

0:50 Wow, Canadians are just like us americans. I never would have thought.

No wonder Americans think Canadians are martians people, so strange and unhuman.

Americans are our best friends.......Canadians have a bad perception of Americans, and none of its true......great people, and great country & a great culture.......lived in Michigan for 30 years, and enjoyed every minute.......now I have American son and Daughter, and Michigan born grandkids.......love the USA......Canada really blows.....too socialist

And canadians say americans are biggots

why am i a white Canadian made to feel guilty about something some white Americans did hundreds of years ago!

who cares? America needs to stop stealing Canadians work and recognition. To the Americans who respect us i thank you!

Yeah, we're not so awful... I'm American, living in Canada, and honestly, I'm here for my husband, who is Canadian. I absolutely ADORE him. The only thing that annoys me about Canada is the fact they seem to hate diabetics, anyone on a low-carb diet, or anyone who just doesn't want to eat a ton of sugar. In fact I can't get anything sugar-free in a store (simple things, like sugar free coffeemate, sugarfree cake mix) unless I pay, I'm not even lying here, TWENTY TIMES THE PRICE on Amazon, (I'm not paying $85.00 for a 10.2oz canister of coffee creamer... WTF?) That is 3.49USD in any walmart. These people have to be kidding me.

THIS BRAVE WOMAN IS INTELLIGENT AND HELPING TO FREE MUSLIM WOMEN WHETHER THEY HEAR IT OR NOT PROBABLY THEIR CHILDREN WILL BECOME REAL CANADIANS AND AMERICANS

Wealthy Canadians go to American hospitals and specialists regularly to bypass the provincial systems.

they are canadians why the test says americans

Unlike Americans, Canadians don't want to acknowledge that racism exists in Canada. Just Look at the comments, many deny racism or think that this program is garbage. This is sick.

All people who do not assimilate must be deported. As well as just stop immigration of Muslims all together. We are at full war. The people who controlled our countries back in WW2 understood that the citizens were number one priority and stopped all immigration of any ethnic background like Germans and Japanese. \n\nBut not all citizens were protected like the Japanese Canadians Americans and so on. The governments back then were very strict and careful. And did they have as much deaths of terrorism? No they did not!\n\nIslamic ideology is one of the most sickest and most anti-freedom things you can find anywhere. And its not a religion of peace. The peaceful majority are irrelevant.

But as soon as Donald Trump or any other American mentions Muslims were racist. At least according to the Canadians.

I dont have anything against immigrants from other countries. Muslims, however, are a real concern to me. Why? Because they're the only people who refuse to adapt to another way of life (e.g. American, Canadian). Oh, yeah, but they do insist that everyone else adapt to their way life -- in some cases, on the pain of death! \n\nGet them out of Europe! Get them out of the Americas!

Question are you still a Canadian or are you now an American since you got married in the United States to an American girl

I am also a BC Canadian. My thoughts about Americans: guns, fast food, religious.

We live in N.Y. about 2 hrs from the border to Canada and we love to go to NOTL for a quick vacation whenever we can - usually 4 or 5 times a year! We find Canadians to be WAY more chill than Americans and we love visiting Canada. One thing I'll tell you is figure out the insurance because we've had employees who didn't bother to do this resulting in them having none. When that happens, and you file your income taxes, the IRS takes a fine out of your return. The first year it's like $100, but it goes up each year. After a few years they can fine you like $600. Depending on how much you earn you may be able to apply for assistance in paying your health care premium or may not have to pay at all. I would encourage you to do that before you start getting fined...and welcome to the USA lol!

So Canadians have perceptions of white Americans mostly. ? Hope you stay here for a long time! ?

Canadians and United States Americans wake up and make a stand against Islam.

Australian and Islamophobic, Canadians are Islamophobic, Americans are Islamophobic, Germans are Islamophobic and they are the problem Islam is a religion of Peace and Submission you submit to it and you are fine if not you are Racist and Intolerant.. Get it.. If not wait few more decades, what happened in Kosovo and Kashmir will happen and then it will be too late...

I'm reading comments and wow I see Canadians even worst then Americans and Europeans! Just don't touch Muslims and they will not touch you, you know what I mean? Don't sent to Muslim countries your army don't create Isis or something like that with your Jew bosses and blacking us! You guys don't know what to be a real Muslim!

Muslims who reject American or Canadian value should go back to their own country. Why come here?!

Canada was doing very well before this moron got into office. Stupid Canadians only copy the Americans - followers. I tell the stupid morons to wake up and realize that all people have the right of worship, dress code as long as they are quality citizens.

Terrorism is not a problem people. Wake up, it's propaganda. Harper is pro American and look at the state they are in!\nWith that being said, Muslims need to back the fuck off and stop trying to change the Canadian way. Which means, Merry Christmas, not happy holidays.\nWhich means, if you want to be a cop, you abide by the fucking dress code.\n\netc etc

As an atheist exmuslim who despises orthodox islam and jihadis, I have the ability to separate the regular muslims from the crazy ones. I have always admired Canada's openness and inclusivitiy which I believe is unrivalled in the world. However the hate speech in these comments are troubling. Not all americans are KKK members and not all muslims are jihadis. Let's all oppose the crazy ones together but by preaching hate speech against all Muslim Canadians you are making the situation a lot worse and perhaps turning what is 1% of Muslim Canadians to a higher number.

I don't see why Canadians must learn about slavery in that country. I mean, if 4% of the population is black and many of them are immigrants from the Caraïbe. What is the point? They live in Canada. Another thing, black Canadians are really sensitive for no reason. Compared to other countries in the Americas, they have it better. Maybe I can't understand what they are complaining about because I'm American but I see over sensitivity.
