Igor, love your channel, watching it for a long time now, would love to see more of your vlogs, gaming videos, and business/economic videos since u hv a masters in it.

watch out its the jimjam boys. NO MUSLIM AREAS IN BRITAIN. THEY NEED TO BOW DOWN TO BRITISH LAW. ISLAM LAW IS NOT ALLOWED. GET YOUR JAMAS OFF AND DRESS LIKE MEN NOT CHILDREN. IDIOTS.

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.

I quit watching after 8:24 I seen they weren't using the black guy!!! whats the sense? I guess someone told them they couldn't because it would make Canada look bad

I'm half white (but look full white) and have only been followed once in my whole life (I was dressed in rags tbh). When I'm with my half brother who looks black, we are followed at every store. That being said, his demeanor is pretty suspicious. He puts his hood up, hands in pockets, and hunches over. He likes to look at nicer stuff like watches too. He's autistic but to any security guard he looks like a guy trying to shoplift. It's a shame.

lookin for ya lady...watch yer back !

This is so cringy to watch now that everything is upside down

I’m skeptical on the Best Buy one. To be honest I think they’re required to be that damn annoying just like frys electronics trying to make a sale or car salesman watching people drive in

I'm %100 European (Scottish, French, British, Irish, Welsh and Scandinavian. I had my DNA tested through four different companies) but because I have naturally very dark brown hair and brown eyes I have been treated differen, watched in stores, talked down to etc. I've had someone tell me I ''must be a dirty foreigner or something with my gross black hair.''

I'm watching this from Mexico, and it's extremely cringy to realize that we have racism everywhere. It's disgusting and heartbreaking.

When walking in a store that is predominantly Pinkies or Asians I'M ALWAYS FOLLOWED AND OR WATCHED THE WHOLE TIME. They run me our their store when they do that makes me angry

Journalist: “Do you feel offended?”\n\nLeland: “No, I feel jealous”\n\nMe:”? bullsh!t that people are treated like this!”\n\nMy heart:?\n\nMy soul:?\n\nAlso me: WHITE AF & oblivious 99% of the time, unless I feel pain via other people’s struggles, by watching things like this.

Also when I worked at petco I was told for watch for the Asian kids as they will still the king beta fish

As an African American it was heartbreaking seeing Leeland going through all this especially when he went to the Super-mart bug pharmacy store or whatever it's called. It's grows from you being calm, to paranoid, then full on anxiety knowing that you are being followed or watched. Then there's an underlying feeling of anger and you keep telling yourself to relax because you haven't done any thing wrong. I've experienced this many times b4 especially when I was younger or go into a store with my younger sister who is 17, I am 27. There's solidarity in knowing someone else experiences this as well and understands how you feel, but it's sad as well because no one should experience this.

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.

Theirs extreme prejudice in every country. I hate it when someone plays the race card. It diminishes your freedom of speech. The CBC is the worst for promoting hate. That's why I don't watch their programming.

Racism is healthy it's been in our DNA for ages.\nI dont care about the social constructs we live by today.\nWe have primal instincts to like or dislike things.\n\nIf you think I am wrong.\nLet child molesters watch your kids.\nBe all inclusive all you want.\nEnjoy that life.\nBut to me racism is rational.

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 ?

This is some complete b******* every time I go anywhere I'm being watched by law enforcement because I quote on quote look suspicious

My mother's background is ambiguous based on looks. She's actually English and Irish but she has dark brown hair and dark brown eyes and naturally tanned skin. It's very unusual for someone of British ancestry, but family photo's of Mum's family show the same colouring back to her great-great-grandfather. In Britain, as a blonde, blue-eyed daughter, I've watched my whole life as people treated her differently to other relatives. She's quiet, polite and her father was a police chief inspector, she strictly obeys the law. I've overheard people refer to her as a 'paki' and all sorts of derogatory things. When we went to the US, it wasn't better. They were rude to her until she spoke and then reacted with shock. Some admitted they thought she was Mexican. \nSo, is it any easier for her in Canada? When she visits me here, she is mistaken for an aboriginal. It isn't any easier for her here. And pettiness of it all. When they hear her accent, suddenly it's like she's their best friend. \nThe sad/funny thing is, often I can't find customer service more than half the time I'm out. When I'm with my mother, there is ALWAYS someone around to ask for help.

While they are busy watching the brown skinned people the others are walking out with unpaid merchandise.

My 8 year old just asked me why I'm watching a video about ladies private parts... ~.- \n\nApparently the name of this city is confusing for small children and it got me a very weird look from my wife when she heard my daughter's question..\n\nEdit: It was when they were filming in the city named Virgina or whatever it was.

i worked at old navy and they told me to watch out for natives such a bad store

Wait and watch for more. It's just a start. After 6-7 years situation will be Worst.

So what was the race of the security person who was watching the cameras, profiled him, and alerted the other employees and what was the race of the employees that followed him? No mention by Marketplace. Why?

Ask them to watch Arabian prophet. Or Christian Prince on you tube. All educated (not stupids.)Muslims will run out of Islam as if from a house on fire!

I feel that most people really watch the native guy because he seems sketchy bc he really believes the world hates him. The black guy seems like he is content and does get mistreated at first due to stereotypes but his presentation seems like that will weed off any first thoughts

Other day I watched documentary that China is surpassing USA and west in development I wonder why these Chinese wants to move here by hook and crook

Hello, I just watched your video. Three years after you made it. I hope you are still with us and a very belated Welcome. Many people throughout the world seem to have so many stereotypes about Americans. Whether it is good or bad there typically is some truth in a stereotype. Overall it seems like you are enjoying yourself and no matter what there is no place like home. I would think no matter what your current situation is you still miss Canada as I would miss the United States if I were to move to Canada. \nA couple things you mentioned in the video were not correct and as with anything there may be a little truth in the matter but yet still incorrect.\nThose who do not have health insurance are not charged or taxed $150 monthly. There is a provision in the affordable care act (ACA) that penalizes certain individuals who make above a certain dollar amount. The amount is either $150 or $300 for the entire year. I concur any monetary penalty against anyone for not having health insurance is outrageous. I could be wrong but I believe this aspect of the ACA was never implemented under President Obama and it was indefinitely suspended or revoked by President Trump. I also feel like I need to address your thoughts about the United States all about war. I believe the American people are like most other people and want peace and civility. The government and major defense contractors have differing opinions at times. Of course there is plenty of people who are war hawks but they are in the minority. Most of us are absolutely sick of war. We currently have been at war for almost 19 years. That's six complete world war 2's in their entirety. \nI think you were being awfully generous when you said obesity is on par with the rest of the world!! Unfortunately there is far to many fat people here and the problem is only getting worse because the media says be happy and proud you are fat. Celebrating obesity is absolutely insane and it sends the wrong message to young people. If a close one is fat of course I love them but I also tell them privately that they are a walking heart attack. It's more than OK to accept someone the way they are but as a friend or family member you doing them a disservice by not mentioning their obesity. \nI'm sorry if you feel I'm being to harsh or critical. I think it is a wonderful thing to share the world's longest border with such a great nation as Canada. I have always thought Canada was like the United States fraternal brother or sister. We are very much alike with a few beautiful differences that distinguishes from one another. It doesn't appear that you upload videos hear anymore but I hope you get the opportunity to read this. Thank you for coming to the United States and I love all my canadian brothers and sisters. Take care.

These are the type of videos that white people need to watch because a lot of them don't even believe black people and other non-whites experience racism and discrimination as much as we say or even at all.

Who's watching this in Dec 2019 and enjoying?

I learned something new today from watching this documentary, the fact that they actually named a town & a park Africville in the great white north. Some people are naive while others are not when it comes to racism. The very fact of the world has been conquered & dominated with the white supremacy mentality leave very little to be surprise that Canada had slaves. I think from what I've come to understands is that having slavery for 250 yrs most white Canadians will pretend to not be racist, but it's like those two kids in your class the one who had the paper thrown at him & the one who did it doesn't act like he did anything & the rest are just as bad because they saw who did it but are complicit by not saying anything. No one wants to be the rat, but at the same time they all know why the one kid that threw the paper did it & the one that had it done to them knows exactly why.

The more I watch this, the more I realize it's sjw dribble

I get watched but i guess its because i dont put on my nicer clothes and makeup at stores

This video was very hurtful to me but still I watched

I am a white woman. I've been followed and watched in department stores! So this program is not a good example.

I'd give the woman money too. She is beautiful. Put a unattractive women out there and watch the bucket stay empty.

I’ve had this happen, I’ve been profiled in CVS twice and while I’m being profiled I’ve watched a White guy on one occasion and a black guy stealing like there was no Tomm. \n\nLol.. I didn’t say anything to management but I get close to them and say,” I see you and you know you wrong.” They stop and walk out.\n\nI’m sure they come back later but for a few hours I foil a theft.

Whenever someone of the Caucasian persuasion tells me that some of their best friends are black, I entertain myself by asking them what are their black friends names, just to watch em turn catch a severe case of stuttering!!!

Well, you probabley stole from them b4.Thats why they were watching you.

Why didn't you take a cafe job? I watch a Korean vlogger who moved last year to Canada with her family. Yes she has it easy. But, she began working now and only 20 hours I guess. She gets fresh leftovers of the day to eat as well and she works in Toronto. You could've found such a job. Server or barista. Job.

Thank you for doing this video. I think more people need to watch this. I live in the USA and yes it definitely happens here. We are all just people and we need to learn to live and be as one.

Watching in 2019, Deal with these fuckers before blood runs down the streets of every city and inocents are lost because of non action by people who stand by and do fuck all. Living in your own filth of your own making, and your dare slag off T Robinson for pointing out these facts about what these fuckers do to your Children. Your shame is endless.RIP UK

They, most of the time watch us while there kind do the stealing. I say let them watch, I don't steal. Those people have been trained to think that way.
