Lol All I want to say is listen all the story before judging if the lady is racist. If Indians want to live another country, you guys should follow the their rule first. But Indian people always think other people are bullying them. It always other people’s fault and being cheap

I’ve watched the video and I’ve read many comments. My message it’s to immigrants, Canadians & everyone. Just be some patient to read for you to think reasonable after this. I’m sure you’ll start to be reasonable regarding Canada. I had a good life good job & a nice home in Ukraine. Due to the barbarian russian invasion my family & I fled the horrific situation in Kharkiv city. I was driving a mini bus of 4 families! Most are children. We’ve arrived to Europe. Crossing many countries (Poland, Czechia & Austria) we’ve arrived to the country leading the EU. In Poland & Czechia, we’re treat very good by the people. In Austria we got hardly a payed hotel where children could get a rest!!! We still didn’t understand why they don’t want to give us rooms despite we’re paying for our staying!!! In Germany, I believe that the government did its best. But the number of comers is huge! Of course many they got disappointed as happened with me! But I still understand and believe that really the government & people did theirs best. So fast I got a job! The social connection helped to introduce me to the company! But i was not hired, I still to express myself & my qualifications. The manager was understanding, so he accepted to communicate in English and to offer me the job in case if I am successful doing the job during the first week at the site. I had to change the machines menu into English. So the manager was very satisfied with my job and I got that job. The rent! You’ll get it only if you receive the blessing of each member of the county and a very strong social connections! The doctors! To make just a blood work for my son it took 45 days of waiting! To get the doctor appointment, you need that a German guy call and get you the appointment! Because when my wife called, the secretary said: we don’t speak English! But when my wife went for her visit she figured out they’re speaking English better than her!!! My son has an issue of hyperactivity, so they refused to accept him at school more than 3 hours a day! And he was excluded from the birthday parties of his colleagues aswell other events! Other Ukrainian children, they were just attending classes! Just a show! No body cares how help their integration! About, the taxes! The half of my income was going to the government! The money back?! Only 200 euros/ month for my kid. And nothing else. Nothing! To get a neurologist appointment for my son it was necessary to wait 3 months! Prices?! Everything expensive! Technology?! Not better than Canada at all. Bureaucracy, Canada is much less. Banking system, Canada much better. Where in Germany?! The best province in Germany “Munich”. Where people stoped long ago dreaming to purchase a home. Guys, Canada doesn’t through broken people as we were in camps! Where nothing is human there! Canada doesn’t enter you in cercle of hell bureaucracy just to get your kid into school! And if he needs a support he get it right away without any background that he’s not our!!! I got a good job in Canada; so fast. Without any social connections because simply I do not have any. I rent an apartment for my family, without to proof to the landlord that I’m the best guy in the world with a witnessed county about that!!! I want you to be sure, that I am not the lonely case. Just ask Ukrainians stied in Europe for a while before they move recently. Just ask them. I am not saying it’s a paradise or cons don’t exist. Just paradise doesn’t exist! And cons are everywhere. Just I want you to be fair about Canada. Please, be reasonable! The cons in Canada are not catastrophic, and it’s not difficult to fix them. It may take some time, but not difficult. Believe me it’s not about only Canada. The whole world is going a step back! I wish that my experience, helps to understand appropriately.

I would just say that your first point about cities being way safer depends on where in Canada you live. We don’t have anything as bad as Detroit or Chicago in Canada, but we have some bad cities. You guys are from out East but in central and western Canada there are places you wouldn’t want to be out after dark. When I stayed in Prince Albert the hotel attendant warned me not to leave the hotel after dark. I did anyways and walked to a pizza place only 5 blocks away. On the way back I had a group attempt to swarm me and had to sprint back. Same goes for areas of Winnipeg, Saskatoon, Regina etc… there are tons of low income reserves around these places and they tend to dump their undesirables on to the cities

Why’d u guys delete it the first time ?

You guys do these skits perfectly! Last time in Canada we had to fill out that ArriveCan form: the first time we didn't know about it even though we checked the requirements it didn't mention it, then one worked and the other didn't we got walked around the border twice back into America before it all got figured out. And they hold your passport up in the air waiving you to follow the border agent ! So essentially we got deported twice.

LOL! This guy nails it. I remember when I first came to the US and I was surprised at how empty the place was. So many cars and stuff but no people.

@CitImmCanada -I came to Canada in 2018 , paid my Tutiom fees working day and night offf , completed my graduation in 2020.I worked as manager in gas station from 2020-2022 during pandemic putting my life on risk , you guys first messed your immigration system during pandemic,after pandemic you got this absurd system of TR2PR , messed up your own system , in which there are Still millions of files pending , then you guys stopped the immigration for 1 year, still I thought it would get better with the time. When the immigration started back in this July the scores were so high that only PHD and people outside Canada with 0 canadian skills can only get the PR. You guys then gave visas to Afghanis , Ukrainians (the fake humanitarian help your government provides )which I don’t mind but the government should have fixed the people who are and we’re here , who came as students , who has all the details of the individuals , has all the experience needed , has all the potential needed to start the career , has 0 criminal record but no you guys keeps getting new and messed up plans. like seriously this country and system is run by this type of people. I am gonna be going back to my country soon as I don’t wantt to stay now in Canada. The coming 10 years will be a disaster if your government and people won’t WAKE UP!!!!

You don't need that knife these days .... also even if you wear one on religious grounds you can try to keep it discreet or concealed ....he's brandishing it like it's a sarkari school in a small Punjab pind ... also let me add.... he's politely complying because he knows it's an American police officer arresting him and those guys shoot first ask questions later....had it been India he and his other whackjob buddies would have attacked the police with edged weapons .... one officer had his hand decapitated by one of the nihangs in India thankfully doctors of PGIMER Chandigarh were able to attach it succesfully through surgery .

Nothing unusual whenever you relocate and you are black. First generation don't usual get the plum jobs or post . I'm detecting an entitlement mentality from you guys . Make the best of your situations.

You guys definitely haven't lived in Australia, most of the things you mentioned are pretty much a constant in every first world country out there

My dear am afraid of this deep truth about there oo.\nIt's only about the passport that will still keep me trying to be there, if not, I better look for where I will make money & come back home & leave a worthy retired life.\nI quite appreciate this you guys marvelous worthy information.\n In the first place, if not for the Devilish Governmental system that is in place in Nigeria, where on earth could have been better than Nigeria..\n Thanks a lot, I will change my Destination to where I will achieve my aim.

can tell you first hand that winnipeg , manitoba SUCKS. This guy hits the nail on the head. I've lived in 6 other Canadian cities over my 46 years and can't wait to get transferred again.

Very good video guys but you forgot some things...\n* Some Canadians are very racists.\n* If you go to Quebéc and you do not speak French your life will be miserable. \n* English speakers and French speakers hate each other...\n* If you are professional and go Montreal to have a life and continue with your carrear you have to wait until the last spot of the line because the job is going to be for a French quebecois first, so is better to go and work in whatever you find.\n*Radical feminism it's just unbearable in Canada. \nThat's all.\nKeep the good work!\n✌️?

Sorry guys. But it's:\n1) poo-teen (french)\n2) new-fun-land\nFunny about crude oil. Those alberta guys with their oil, eh? Unfortunately, there's a lot of first nation people sniffing petrol to get high there I'm canada. And why not do a show somewhere out in like Petawawa?\nFunny skit.

It was so great to finally meet you guys and see the live show for the first time on Saturday. It was so incredible, thank you guys so much for the awesome pictures as well. I'll cherish them forever!\nBig love from Cork!! ??

First I thought why are you guys speaking so fast then I remembered I had set playback speed to x2

First of all Montreal's extremely expensive place to be the rents are extremely high the people in Quebec are racist and most people come to Alberta to make money Alberta is the number one province in Canada being a Canadian I know. this guy has no clue and it's not always 40 below 0 videos total b*******

Thank you for show us several options and chances to move on Canada, you get enourage me, I actually look for my best option to get my job offer and I´m preparing me on improving English languages skills, as no native speaker is a chalenging situation though obviously I won´t be the first and the last guy either. So I just tell you thanks and see you in Canada soon.

You guys need to explain why Canada's waiting line is so long. Canada prioritizes the patients into the worst conditions first like cancer over a broken leg. Canada wants to save everyone and not leave any canadians behind, america is all about leaving americans behind to die to cant afford healthcare and to not being able to make a decent living. America is all about letting their own die. It wont change. Selfishness is america.

These guys are ridiculous... first of all u r in a foreign land and then u want a separate law in foreign country.... they want to create problems for local population

Is this guy from first nation? If not then he is also an immigrant.

These tests are ridiculous. First min. White guy says hes never been followed by police. Lie#1. Every single human alive has been followed by police.

3.05 the guy is lying like shit......nobody earns 10,000 Rs/month.....even truck drivers depending depending on experience and trips can earn 15- 20,000.\nSame for other blue collar workers.\n\nOk may be in the initial first few years you could earn 12- 15000 but once you have 5 years experience and atleast a bachelor's degree you can easily earn minimum 25-30,000 /month

Let this loser go to philippines and let see what he got. You guys not even the first people here in canada, First Nation is! So dont act you own this country coz\nWe all just migrating here

I think if canada had been his first choice then it wouldnt look so bad him asking for asualym...but the guy just wants to make dollars so people back in his native country think hes succsesful.....he could have easliy stayed close to the us mex border and made a decent living but no.....he got greedy.

What makes me laugh is the guy thinks he can come to Canada for house, job, food, clothing, with the whole fam damily\nand presto everything is great. Geez how many Canadians have 15 grand saved up. We have many people living on the\nstreets here as is. If I were rich I would find a street person that was willing to work and help him, first.\nTrudeau is a dumb ass that thinks he's Santa Claus with our hard earned tax dollars.

So this guy’s argument is that Asian people will bring Covid into the country, yet his first action is to assault her and potentially contract the virus while he doesn’t wear a mask??? Can’t even properly use his OWN misinformed logic! XD

EPS did not show up till next morning?! C'mon! Tax dollars are paying for you to show up ASAP. This guy was threatening her life! Did you want her to harm her first then show up pronto?! What is wrong with the world?!

looks like the first guy didn't even let the black guy in.

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.

4:23 “with targeted info graphics warning them about misinformation” they should have added from our PM and other politicians. I hate how the US is appeared to be the bad guy in all this but fact are facts. If you allow everyone to flee their countries because of hardships, your country will fail. People need to understand that people from their home country have to come first. In America Americans have to come first, the same for Canada, ect, ect. The US takes in a good amount of people seeking permanent residency.

This happened in the US but I was working at Panera and two really nice ladies wearing burkas came to order some food and the old white guy cashiering refuses to cash them out because of what they are wearing. \n\nThat's straight up discrimination, I hope they didn't know why he wouldn't served them because that's horrible and he should feel ashamed. That was the first time I witnessed discrimination and I couldn't believe someone would do that, but I see it's common everywhere, the grass isn't always greener on the other side. I hope all these blatant racists get what's coming to them

well to be honest, a marketing guy said, that he has two appartments free on the first dude and one appartment free on the second dude.....isnt that.....good? would be better to switch the order of the visit. and the 10$ difference by a different contractor was probably mor elikly corruption by this guy than actual racism.\n\n\n\n\nthese test results dont show racial bias, but simply the facial recognision of your mind to identify white or black people, thereby have a greater cultural and social preference to come into contact with these people. the test actual showed never racism. its showes social stereotypical mindsets. to combine these stereotypes with claims, that are unjustified to a person is prejudging and by a racial mindset of reasoning its is racism.

First of all that somebody can explain when a guy killed muslim in new zeland..\nDoes anybody has to say that\nSecondly muslim r not terriorist \nThirdly non muslim who convert to muslim\nAre decided by god\nNot by us

Stay alert guys . First they pretend to be victims and they start killing you

@31:22 the dude wasn’t emotional at all, if his girlfriend didn’t step in or he’s by himself, he would have agree with the guy. He’s trying to score some brownie point by answering first while he’s girlfriend was having a emotional breakdown when the reporter asked her a question. \nWe all know deep down, there’s racism within us. But we like to appease to the public when the majority try to appease each other. We all lie to each other to look better on the outside.

Maybe they reserved the better deal for the first person, maybe stop sending the white guy in first to ask

Are you dumb? He only has one place cause he already offered it to the first guy!

The Best buy test is utterly inaccurate. Those workers get paid on commission, so they are incentivized to ask customers for help and to make a sale. Maybe the second guy just happened to run into more than the first...

I'm ashamed that when I was renting a place, the first guy that applied was black and I was looking for a reason not to accept it. He's my best renter.

To be honest, this whole video seems so biased. I couldn't watch it past the 10 minute mark.\n First of all, if the white guy had been the first to tell the manager that he was interested in the apartments, then of course that same manager is going to tell the 2nd person (asian guy) that the availability is limited. He already HAS a potential renter, why would he need more? The 1st guy already chose one of the apartments, so of course the Asian guy would have less options.\nSecondly, and I'm sorry to say this, but statistically there are more black shoplifting cases than with any other race. It's sad, but true. These retailers are just trying to protect their assets, and it's their right.\nThirdly, that lady was in the wrong, for one, because if a security person is asking to inspect your purse on THEIR retail grounds and you have nothing to hide, then why are you being uncooperative? That just makes you look worse.

That first seller wanted to save the more expensive apartment for the white guy

I'm a white guy who lived in another country that wasn't a white majority country. There is discrimination in western countries, but there are ways to deal with it. The discrimination I had to deal with every day was much more than this, but nobody wants to know about that. The way I lived for those several years was to realize that I was different and I just had to maximize dealing with good people and when I knew that I would have to deal with something like having to get an apartment, I took that countries national with me knowing I would get a better deal. I was grabbed by officers at night and threatened. basically whatever is faced here, I had on a regular basis. At first, it pissed me off, but later, I came up with a way to maximize my life to get the best treatment I could. I didn't think I would be coming back to America, but eventually, I came back for more schooling and ended up staying.

This is BS! Send nice dressed black guy to look for apartment and white guy just plain looking I bet black guy will be offered apartment first! I dated black girl and black guys always gave me weird look but when they date white girls it is ok! There's racism on all sides!! I respects all races and good people!!

There is so many factors that play into this the fact that the white guy went into the building first and ask about apartments affects the next skies results because she was sort of offered the apartment first

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.

U have all three dudes ask the same guy the same thing I think they will be suspect u need to let the black dude do it first lol not watching this hole thing so idk if they do ok bye ?

I would've guessed the first nations guy was European, just with a bit of a tan and some skincare issue cause of the bumps on his face. Until it was mentioned, I thought it was 2 white guys and a black guy. Maybe that's just because of how poor quality the video is.

Should have had the black guy go alone first then have his white friend go along and see if that would make a difference, it's still not right but to see the behaviour in the enployees.
