Just wrong.

As soon as you use a colour in your speech to describe a person from a certain continent you are suspect in my opinion. \nIf this about getting money for historical past wrongs you are suspect as well. \n I would agree that the Canadian Police have lost their way and are serving a new master. \nI am afraid that this may lead to chaos because hate and anger are powerful emotions \nand would agree that most people do not know who is really making this happen. \nSome would say that the Europeans have conquered this continent with gun, germs and steel.\nWe are going to have to figure out how all of us human beings can live in peace in Canada.

soooo systemic racism is only racial injustice? So Systemic Racism = Institutional Racism... right? Please show me what law inherently discriminates? Am I wrong with this perception?

The first step before understanding a conflict, let alone trying to solve it, is listening. Bravo to CBC for giving a voice to people who are in positions of leadership who represent the disenfranchised, the violated and the overlooked. One thing that can be frustrating about “not seeing a problem that doesn’t involves us immediately” is that we are locked in to our own worldview—and it’s frustrating to be asked to change something we ourselves don’t think needs fixing. The importance of just listening, and being witnesses to specific stories, human to human—and being reeducated on the lingering multi-generational consequences of past and current racism is what needs to be focused on, if you are an individual who feels like nothing is wrong. The task is merely to listen—and doubt your sense of comfort, satisfaction and preference for the status quo. Listening, and doubt can lead to change. Collective change can lead to understanding, and even, healing. It is so hard to doubt oneself at this level because “othering” is a very strong force in tribal instincts and dynamics. To be asked to let go of this seemingly real sense of self and group identity can be extremely unsettling, psychologically. I hope that is somehow helpful for people who are reading, in some way. I wish that our education not only reflected history accurately, but also made it mandatory to learn basic principles of psychology.

You don’t see racism often in Canada since it’s so diverse but if someone’s racism it’s something wrong is going on

As a white man, we should just voluntarily surrender the land we stole to the natives once and for all. Time to find our own place to go. Its the only way to legitimately make this right. |\nProgressives can pander all they want with acknowledgements, self serving pretentiousness, exc. but its just as worthless as those who deny and think we've moved humanity forward. Progressives are no better. If anything they are worse trying to have their cake & eat it too. \nEither you correct a wrong or convince yourself your actually 'doing something' through words. Time to give this land back & for us whites to go back to wherever our families came from. Critical theory is the only way forward in this century.

What's wrong with these European settlers everywhere?

You're an Oregon if you open your bag Portland Oregon and they are wrong and there's nothing in your bag and they're racially profiling you you get sued I had a neighbor that happened to and he got some money from the Albertson's for the singing thing it isn't cool and my roommate was dark-skinned in I think he was Italian or something but they thought he was Puerto Rican

I thought Canada was a nice country, wrong!

There is racism, stereotypes and then statistics. Racism is wrong and fueled by hate, no excuse. Stereotypes are the use of statistics on an everyday basis, where people just know the overall and basic results of the study, most times just spread out by word of mouth. Statistics themselves are factual, especially when the number or sample data (or population) is large enough.They all exist, but don't be too quick to judge which ones you see here.\nDo the rental property managers, store clerks etc. act differently because they are fueled by hate (some maybe), or just trying to risk management present and future situations based on statistics/stereotypes? That's for you to decide!

I was going to say Newman-Bregmang was exceptionally racist - but the others present proved that theory wrong.

I must say....Canada does say they like immigrants....but in some way they are only looking for immigrants who can fill in the gap that exist.\n\nMaybe it's not wrong...but yea....its not that easy to get into Canada.

Hey Yes there is a problem of racism in Canada too. They will not show directly but indirectly will do that at most of the places. Its really rude especially when i try to help out somebody or don’t have any intentions to hurt people. I always try to make people happy and smile. Why is that? Before anything we are all humans, that should all matters. Please being respectful to everybody, you never know how the person is already going through in their lives. I apologize if i say anything wrong but thats a bitter truth. Thank you!!!

What good is it for the media to share this kind of information or to do this kinda thing for public viewing.... what are people going to do about racial inequalities by companies... the media has the power to take this kind of information to the best Better Business bureaus and the FCC... what they do is they broadcast it to the public instigating feelings of animosity...\nThere should be a law against the media doing this kind of thing they know what they're doing and it's wrong... they do because someone's paying them to destabilize our people and that's wrong.

Targeting because of skin colour is wrong of course.\n I am not offended when asked to open my bags before I leave a store. But being white, I don't experience racism so I guess my perspective is different. I could see that being a slipery slope though, when one has to prove everything in a bag was purchased elsewhere.\n I enter stores sometimes with two bike paniers full of gear for the changing weather. \nIf there was a safe place to secure bags at the entrance, I wouldn't be offended to leave it there.But stores wouldn't want that cause that cost money. Instead we criminalize people, particularly people of colour.

As a former best buy employee for 3 years, I can confirm they enforce a 10 foot 10 second rule. If a customer is withing 10 feet of you, you have 10 seconds to greet and share your name with the customer. This is two fold- yes, to help reduce shoplifting, but also to encourage sales. This is something I share and reference with my sales team in a different setting now, however, I can confirm as an experienced sales person, the technique works to achieve both outcomes. It's super sad to see it being used for the wrong purpose in this clip. I think it shows a lot of racial bias. I'm curious what ethnicities the employees were that approached each shopper.

For the shopping experience, they have the guys go in carrying hand bags. That's going to get their attention since shoplifters could easily put things into the bags and most people don't bring computer bags, hand bags etc when they shop.\n\nI've had instances where people were awful to me for no apparent reason (I'm white), and it struck me that if i was black, I would attribute the terrible treatment to racism since I couldn't think of any other reason for the bad treatment. \n\nAnother form of racism not covered here is the racism of low expectations. If people assume that you are too dumb to understand something or too poor to afford something, that's wrong. Same holds true for treating women as if they won't understand. Usually this behavior is done, not by bad people, but by people who just haven't had a lot of interactions with different people of different races. So they haven't had the chance to have those stereotypes personally disproven.

I never seen racism all my life except for Toronto. You get called black even if you aren’t. What’s wrong with the people.

this is all interesting ,,but to be fair ,,,, its all up to  who wrote the test ,,and is there even a right answer to these questions ,,, in other words a test is only as good as the person that wrote it  ,,, on something as tender as this subject ,, it could be that all the answers are wrong ,,, its all in the way you view life and the people you meet ,,, my life is simple ,,, ill treat you the way you treat me ,,, and I never see color ... color is nothing more then a shade of life ,,, no matter who is in your company , if your enjoying it,, that's a keeper ... and never bend to pier pressure ,,, nothing good ever comes from it ,, be your self and see people the way they show them self to you

Come to Vancouver and you can partake in racism against white people. The only part of this that struck me as really wrong was that people are still saying the n word. That is not ok

Its so important for Canadians to know racism exists here because these so subtle yet so consequential differences are caused by us, the people. I think its impossible not to have bias everyone has a preconceived notion they evaluate others with, but to act upon that first notion without knowing the person, thats wrong.

The alarm went off one time with and my wife walking out of Wal- Mart I just stoped right there and raise both my hands and bags up in the air !!!!! Treat me like I’m bad ...,,, I’ll act bad !!!! Waiting for me to do wrong , but when I play wrong .....,,,, they were not ready ?? !!!!!

I'm sorry to those that are stalked when doing something as simple as shopping. \nIt's wrong..\nBut guys..\nRemember this..\nThere is a God..\nHe sees and hears all..\nThe guilt of you getting stalked is not yours..\nIt's the stalkers..\nThey will have to answer to God for it..\nI truly believe we are all God's children.\nAs I believe he loves us all.\nBut god laid down his commandments. \nWe are to follow those commandments..\nHe is our father..\nHe laid down the rules.\nBut like a father does..\nIf we do not obey the rules..\nWe will be punished for it..

Wuts wrong with Mexico

Why is this wrong? They don't want anything to stolen. And if you have read a statistic one time you know why this is happening. But different prices thats not ok.

I feel nothing wrong with racism. Racism is like social classes when you have no minority in the country. Accept it then you will feel less shocked.

Stuff like this, makes wish I was not a Canadian. She’s everything wrong with Canada

Ok ok but didn’t a Canadian from Almonte Ontario create basketball as well!? I am sorry if I am wrong

Anti- Islamic sentiment???? I don't mind as long as Christianity suffers the same fate. WHY???? cause your all wrong.

whats wrong in it ? If some one has canadian citzenship and he works in other country ?

Both suck as wrong side pond both friendly so Canadian more strange and full foreigners

I live in Victoria, and take this. I worked in a place, where the manager was from Asia, and she treated me like hell forcing me to move to another department, claiming she doesn't need an assistant. NEXT day she hired an Asian girl. She obviously needs an assistant, but because she wanted an Asian with her, she did that. And now you go to that department and you find all employees are from her country. Talk about racism, it's everywhere. And yes when an Asian or a black treat others in a wrong way, it's still called racism. People only shout racism when it comes from the White while we do see racism from others, but we don't hear anyone condemning it

Im just wondering if this guy even knows anything about sharia except the wrong things

Wrong, wrong, wrong video..shows image of Hijabi Muslim lady and talks of racism? Islam is not race though.

why people is so ignorant, What I understand is the only people that can get asylum are socialist countries. People have been passing the wrong information. this is why is denied.

This is so wrong

This is a flawed test ,you get similar results from a whole range of physical characteristics such as beards spacing of eyes,symmetry of face and A study based on accents(UK Study) showed similar results north south based on where test was conducted being people being more comfortable/trusting of the society/group you grew up with is normal.\n If you test any racial/ethnic group you are likely to get similar results so it proves humans are human wherever they are.\n Please don't get me wrong racism exists and apart from being aware of unconscious bias toward your own identified group there is little most can do.\n\n\n This of course very different to overt and deliberate conscious acts of racism.

Oh com’on, as much as I support immigrants and refugee, calling the Canadian system bad is just wrong, especially compared with America

You are wrong!\nPR holders are eligible to become CBSA officers.\nDo your research before making video.

There’s no point in saying that somebody is in the wrong for not saying anything... some people just like to mind their own business...

REALITY IS ALSO;\nIT HAPPENS MONEY IS SPEND FOR THE WRONG REASONS. SO HOW DO YOU REACT WHEN YOU KNOW THIS HAPPEN ALSO.\nNetherlands

I am a male white man . I am 57 years old . I was born in Canada . At a store that I was shopping at , 2 employees showed up within 2 minutes and was watching me from a distance of 15 feet from me while I was looking at wallet's . I felt a tingling feeling at the back of my neck . I had a difficult time to figure out what wallet that I was going to buy . I was there between 15 - 20 minutes . Both of them stayed near me , watching me until a found the right wallet to buy . I bought the wallet . To me that was wrong for both of them to do that because neither of them approached me and asked if I needed any help .

My dear Muslim sister. Karma comes back to you. What you give comes back to you. If you treat minorities shabbily in the Muslim countries, please expect to be treated like wise. That's the natural law. Allah is very just. He won't forgive name sake Muslims if they subjugate or wrong the non-Muslims for no logical cause.

That is so racist and ignorant she has no respect for south Asian community some people are rude disrespectful and racist she didn't said sorry when someone is being racist in a bus or train people always watch the scene staring don't get me wrong

This wrong can’t mix with media most of what is happening around the world aren’t from the Muslims but from the westerners and Illuminati

The only thing wrong is healthcare is paid in your taxes

Actually US is not a democracy, but a republic. And Canada is a parliamentary democracy. Taxes are higher in Canada than the US, and also, wait time to see a specialist and operation is longer in Canada on average. However, don't get me wrong, I do love Canada. Victoria, BC is one of the FAVORITE places I have ever been. And I do love Hockey as well.

Let me ask. If you walk by a lonely road and at a particular spot you almost get bitten by a snake. The next time you get to that point, what will you do? It is called subconscious programming.. Now racism of any type (black on white, white on black, , Arab on white, arab on black, etc etc) is wrong. The bible is easy and to the point: The heart of man is desperately evil. Blessed are those who realise this early and trust in the righteousness of Jesus and not theirs. The recent covid 19 toilet paper/panic buying saga has at least revealed to many just how they really are.

Correct me if iam wrong but hockey was brought to canada by the scottish

Wrong there 40% French speakers
