Lol the like-dislike ratio...

What does the data look like when you're comparing Canadians based on income rather than race?

man this chall is like a sped clASS bc all the commets are disabled

Google YouTube with words like Asian and racism and you’ll see all these videos of white Canadians spewing anti Asian racism

I'm worried about Canada. Please Canada awake otherwise you suffer in future and think about your country. Canada look like middle eastern countries.

where do you start with people like this. She really believes that Canada belongs to her. Did you go to an all white Canadian White School. When you was a kid growing up. ? At what point did you start to notice that you was a different colour to other people. When you can answer that question honestly..... then you will probably realise your the one with the problem. \nIf we are to follow history it was the white man that started to travel and from there on it was nothing but destruction. \nI wonder what will be written on your urn when you pass away and you are no longer apart of this world..... \nIn this urn lies a true Canadian . Oh s#¥t you've gone back to the earth. \nWhat you don't seem to realise is all this crap is politics \nWhen someone says to me go back to where you come from. (I'm already there. ) and my reply is take your small mind and what you claim to be your country. And shove it where the sun doesn't shine because the world belongs to me. \nI don't think you'll understand what that means and here endeth the lesson. Drops the ? Oops

GET OUT.\nhe thinks he can sneek into canada, after sneaking into the states and taking jobs from them, and doesn't like that he is most likely going to be deported? Go away. Follow the rules and law.

Of all the people in Canada who are convicted of shop lifting, what are the proportions of whites, latinos, blacks or aboriginals? Are shopkeepers justified in their suspicion? We hear a great deal about racism, but never any comparative statistics that prove or disprove it. What I am trying to say is: is there any reason why this prejudice exists in the first place?\nIn Edmonton a few years ago an aboriginal man died of a stroke while waiting for triage in a hospital emergency area. IF I remember correctly, police and hospital staff alike assumed he was drunk, not suffering a stroke. I think the chances of someone in a downtown lower east side area being drunk is much higher than having a stroke. So staff just assumed he was drunk. \nIf more people of all ethnic backgrounds behaved more like whites would that suspicion disappear? I wonder if there is a logical and reasonable explanation for why shop keepers feel they way they do.

Boo freaking hoo..He called me a name. Get over it.We don't have to like others! We separate ourselves by color. You're not supposed to be a citizen unless you can speak English. English is the language of America.\nWhen in Rome do as the Roman's do.

City really has a lot to with it. I’m a Hispanic in Houston, Texas, one of the most Hispanic places in Texas, and I’ve never really felt uncomfortable or felt like people have any prejudice towards me, but I didn’t know racism was still a thing until I was 19, so I may be super oblivious to these things still

The only people who dont get discriminated in canada are whites and celebritys like drake

I'm not rasim like everyone

sounded like V word . oh my!!!

Had this been Africans they woukd have been back to Africa in a heart beat. Chinese always pretend like they don't speak English or misunderstood the law, and are then given leniency.

I'm confused. I took the test it said i had a preference to black people vs Europeans, slight. I click the submit for more information and it said i had a slight preference for Europeans. smh -_- also the test almost feels like some type of attempt at suggestive information.

The girl with the dreadlocks who stood up for the actress? 110% chance SHES been discriminated against for her HAIR. I’m white, but I’m goth. If I go into a store, I am followed CONSTANTLY. Just because of MY CLOTHES. It happens so much that when I was out with my extremely Christian father at a store HE noticed it and I DIDNT. I can’t imagine what it’s like for someone to have that happen because of their skin colour. I can change my clothes. They can’t change their skin colour.

Seems like in some places there's more real Indians than native Indians

More like stereo typing people....and these assumptions are mostly presuppositions......that are not necessarily true to personal experiences.

I am also jealous of the black people getting followed in stores. I would like to get followed - I would start playing peekaboo with the store staffs.

I think in like these schools or job positions it should be about the skills of the person not the race or gender. If for example 2 people apply to a job and one is black and one is white and the white one gets picked because of his skin color then that shouldn't be acceptable. But let's say that the white guy had better skills in that exact position than the black man then i think the white guy should be picked. It's about the skill not gender race etc.

always white people are like this recist people

This happens all around the world, in the USA the Cubans are well known within Hispanic community that they (Cubans) once they get the LPR (Green Card) they leave the US and go back to Cuba for more time the immigration law allows to be out of the country as a LPR (six months) meanwhile they claim SSA without have a real presence in the country, without work record, then relatives get the welfare benefits (money) and send it to Cuba this way this well educated citizens pay their expenses without working also happens with South Americans.\nThis is a real problem that it looks like the government do nothing to fix it.

They’re not happy in Gaza …\nThey’re not happy in Egypt …\nThey’re not happy in Libya …\nThey’re not happy in Morocco …\nThey’re not happy in Iran …\nThey’re not happy in Iraq …\nThey’re not happy in Yemen ….\nThey’re not happy in Afghanistan ….\nThey’re not happy in Pakistan …\nThey’re not happy in Syria …\nThey’re not happy in Lebanon …\nSO, WHERE ARE THEY HAPPY?\nThey’re happy in Australia …\nThey’re happy in Canada ..\nThey’re happy in England …\nThey’re happy in France ..\nThey’re happy in Italy ..\nThey’re happy in Germany …\nThey’re happy in Sweden ..\nThey’re happy in the USA …\nThey’re happy in Norway ..\nThey’re happy in Holland …\nThey’re happy in Denmark …\nBasically, they’re happy in every country that is not Muslim and unhappy in every country that is!\nAND WHO DO THEY BLAME?\nNot Islam.\nNot their leadership.\nNot themselves.\nTHEY BLAME THE COUNTRIES THEY ARE HAPPY IN!\nAND THEN- They want to change those countries to be like,\nTHE COUNTRY THEY CAME FROM WHERE THEY WERE UNHAPPY!\nExcuse me, but I can’t help wondering…\nHow dumb can you get.

Yah make it like it is rasict and not because of experiences they have had. This isn’t fair. I was out with a friends child , shopping for her( she was black and 10). I was going to buy her the items she was trying on. When I went to see if they fit I see that she had pulled of the tags. She must have learned this from her mother. Sham full what you are pedaling. Stop trying to project people of colour as perfect.

Real racism is proven in the workplace around here, sadly especially if it’s a high paying job, they feel like you don’t deserve to be there or have that pay grade... envy & extreme haterism...no common sense to just let ppl be and provide for there families in peace lots of circumstantial mental anguish when in such a toxic work setting, then coupled with having enough mental energy left to do your job adequately...smh

15:15 she like that BBC

Is Islam even a religion? Seems like these guys hate Britain. And hide behind the word religion.

Who are blaming for racial profiling, Canadian people? Maybe these racialized groups have showen more trouble in all areas of lives like higher unemployement rate, drug use, criminality, slums... Dont blame those business owners, property managers etc. as they are just trying to make the right choice

loving this vancouver drone footage, but just so yall know vancouver snows like 5 cm a year but rains sooo much

LOL do they really think its ok to just walk in any country? uneducated is astounding. looks like the same guy who speeds in your freeway and cuts you off and gets mad because you're mad lol, low class.

Well it’s completely not a Rase’s at all for example I am from Fiji I never seen any one covering they face in my life but I have seen women’s covered they face in Canada wow for me it is very scary and i get panning I am very honest I am very nervous to see any one covers they face at all this is my biggerest problem ever looks like a Devil is attacking me it’s so much sceary never want to hurt any one this is reality and I also very sceard to see people with big Beard I am very soft heart person

31:18 and 32:42 so apparently red-head gals with boyfreinds with beards are most likely to intervene?

Lol my black model sister don’t like the truth she is ugly for real haha but I am sorry for her treatments as a black person

These two countries are very similar every side like currency name, area language culture political system education ..... etc except the population although they are almost same equal area why US is so populated and canada is less densely populated That is not fair I don’t understand here ??

At least two more differences between the US and Canada (I'm a Montrealer myself with American-born parents):\n\n1) When going to the different parts of Canada, they feel that much more different from each other (in the buildings, highway signs, etc.) than the different parts of the US. For example, British Columbia feels like a foreign country compared to not just Quebec (the most obviously different province in Canada) but also compared to Nova Scotia or Manitoba, whereas Washington state or Minnesota is less different than Pennsylvania or Massachusetts.\n\n2) Native Americans (or First Nations, as they're called in Canada) make up a way higher proportion of the Canadian than American population, though less so percentage-wise in Montreal or Toronto or even Quebec City, and they are thus much more in the consciousness of the average Canadian than the average American.

But you don't like India enough to have it in your top 7 countries in Asia

Like ya dud

One things is that canadians like to compare canada and America (united states) americans not so much also Canadians seem to really dislike the United states America not so much

Do the UK and US, everyone like this so Drew can see

Well, Canadians are a minority in North America. California has more people than Canada. There are more Blacks in the USA than all Canadas population. So, being a minority will make you feel like your kind of special. Being American is not since there are 320 million Americans .

Canada? We speak like Americans but look, we say ''EH'' at the end of our phrases. That makes us sound Canadian. If you think that adding a stupid word at the end of a phrase is creating an accent, its an insult for all the countries that have spend centuries to develop an actual accent that makes them sound different from the others. You guys are in denial.

Canadian here in Toronto. Thanks for the video Drew. Very accurate. We're similar in so many ways but there are definitely differences. Today was the day I was supposed to fly to China to take a tour in North Korea. Yes you heard that right. YouTubers like you and similar others have inspired me to try different destinations and experiences. However, that will have to be out on hold for the time being... :(

I have been in both countries and like more the US, is more vibrant, funnier, you have bigger opportunities, the economy is more dynamic and you can literally find every single climate type across the US, from the Tundra in Alaska, to Jungles in Hawaii, to deserts in Arizona or even savanna by Florida.

Canada?? spells words like colour the UK??way

Canadian here! I do like both countries!

Canada is like America but Canadian

I like USA and Canada

Same like India and Bangladesh not pak

Glad to see organizations like the black fathers and many that were not part of this documentary. I also want more ppl to think about families who have fathers that are emotionally unavailable/ are workaholics or are just puppet dads. This is often overlooked. There are females who stay with deadbeat males out of fear of societal shaming/ fear of being along and decide to stay even though the guy doesn't provide any support... I'm other words, males who create families but are not emotionally there so to say, that in many ways can be super problematic and disastrous for the family dynamic especially for the women and the children.

Visit small towns then you’ll know what canadian racism looks like.
