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

I didn't know that Canadians are like this! Ingat lang ate.

Him being white didn't guarantee him Asian pvssy and he just lost it. Must be an incel that can't get a white woman and his last resort rejected him.

eh, you're lucky she didn't do a kung flu whooping cough Crane kick on ye ?

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.

Okay, so, was that supposed to explain what systemic racism looks like? Because it really didn't explain that.

First problem is he went to Alberta it’s probably the most racist province in Canada, also why didn’t he try the family immigration program if his sister is here?

I don’t get the point to this video. Canada isn’t a free for all. You still need due process. He isn’t locked in a cage. He’s given freedom, healthcare and help while he’s waiting for a decision. The judge obviously made his decision based on facts. I’m a bleeding heart liberal like the best of them but come on ... if you didn’t prove your life is in danger then sorry.

A running gag in Canada: \n\nAmerica: We banned kinder surprise, because someone might get hurt.\n\n\n\nCanada: We didn’t do that no. \nWe banned guns

I'm calling bs. I grew up in Scarborough, the schools in my area were mixed Caribbean, Canadian, European, Indian (and other South asain), Chinese (and other East Asian), middle Eastern, African, Latino, everyone went to the same school. Everyone's families were and are poor going through the same struggle. By the time I got to highschool I took the higher level courses, I went to class everyday, I wasn't a smart kid I didn't get to uni, I took a bridging program in college and got into uni. It's not hard to climb the latter in Canada if you work for it. Meanwhile at the same school a large percentage of Carribean and Somalian black students do not go to class, they skip, they dont care. In fact these same kids picked and made fun of the Asian kids that did go to school. They have zero respect imo. You can call me whatever you want I am just speaking my personal experience. School never seemed like a priority to them. I'm not Chinese or Indian but those 2 cultures always seemed like the hardest working. Those kids went to every class and got the best grades. Again Caribbean and Somalian black students in my area were more likely to be distruptive in class and get into fights. As were Greek kids and Canadian/Irish white kids. I am only pointing out the black students in relation to this video. Personal accountability is important, I don't disagree there is problems with the system but let's not act like there isn't a problem within black and even poor white culture itself. Sometimes you have to look in the mirror.

This just didn't happen at Indigenous schools that happened at deaf schools, disabilities this is a wide world epidemic and problem. What happened here, happened in other parts of the world too.

I love all of these white people commenting like there grandparents didn't come to Canada illegally

I can truly say iv been to Canada once in my life Montreal and didn't feel any prejudice but it was only for a few hours. But I was told to expect it to happen, thus was in the 80's

some people use $ as a way to also get under your skin and force racism upon you. Some cashiers at Walmart do it. They'll say as if you didn't pay meanwhile you did and they just keep saying you didn't when it went through the register till.\nsome of these workers need to act right and quit forcing racism on others through $

I'm really glad they didn't censor the cursing. It helps communicate what is actually going on.

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

I don't really understand one of experiences during my visit in Canada, I am a HongKonger and one time when I was visiting Toronto, some people with different ethnic background made a comment on my English, they said my English was good. But the fact that there are tons of Chinese/Hong Kong looking people living Toronto who speak perfect English or better than me. I really don't get this, those people who made comment are Indian, Russian, even Canadian born Chinese, they didn't even know I was just a visitor. I don't know much about the standard/definition of racism in Canada, is this incidence considered some kind of racism/stereotype? I am humbly asking for your perspectives on this.

Cause they didn't want us to see that they were the outcasts

why you guys didn't pick an asian

Mean while there watching the black person and its usually sometimes its the white person that's stealing the item. I've seen situation like that. I've even gone in to department stores looking to purchase something and being ignored by the sales rep they would rather help the white person than the black person in a situation where I wanted to purchase something the sales rep went to help the white lady who she spent half-an-hour with and that white woman did not purchase anything I was in a hurry ended up getting help from another sales rep ended up spending $300 the first sales rep who didn't help me looked over and saw that large purchase and thoughts to herself I should have helped that black girls. I mean in both cases you can't just judge a person by their colour a thief is a thief.

I be followed everyday I leave my house. Either my phone is tracked, my car has been tracked with a tracker. Police follow me in store, stand at the register as I checkout, walking same aisle, park beside me in parking lots, follow me on freeway with their lights flashing, refuse justice when I'm assaulted, physical, sexual.\n\nI'm question before in a report when an officer ask me what medication I'm taking , I didn't say a word but stared at him while he sat there laughing. My home been broken in my county officers, my personal items was out of order, drawers pulled out, phone messages erased, they parked at the street watch and followed. Etc....

I experienced profiling while shopping. I am a white woman. Constantly following and watching. I was shopping because I didn't know what I wanted for a gift and was looking for inspiration. That was some years ago. I was appropriately dressed and not poor looking. It is not comfortable and makes that store a place you don't want to go again.

The world needs help. I was profiled while shopping, all while white shoppers stuffed there pockets with items they didn’t buy.

This is for everyone who says why don't you speak English when there in English speaking country well to you Canadian and other people why dont you learn other people's languages when you go on vacation hmm....? Stop expecting the world to conform to your will. I was in Madrid Spain and this Canadian couple didn't even bother learning Spanish when they spoke to us and ask for help. They expect us to conform to them when they are on vacation in a non english speaking country you can't have it both ways that double standard right there.

Were trained so they didn't change the Lee train them so then the people that rent them to them are screwed because they're not different that just trained

how many did the test but they didn't show you your result ? or is it because i am chinese ?

I’m a white guy that only speaks English. In Montreal the minority community treated me warmly. Giving extra food at restaurants, etc. In this case skin colour didn’t matter. Only that I fit into the minority.

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

No one should be judged because of things they didn't choose, thier birth name,thier place of birth ,thier color,their mother language, judgment should be on the level of respect that I give and receive as a person regardless.

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

Side note (I'm 1:30 in) somebody should tag ruray(can't spell, don't care) from Joe Budden podcast . Didn't kno he was in this vid ????

That's why China beat America in trade war, Chinese didn't care about skin color all they see is green

Hi I am Christian and in high school I took a cross out of my backpack Christian cross and placed it on to my desk for a moment and I had my teacher come up to me and tell me that I need to put it in my bag because it was offencive to the person sitting next to me as well as putting my necklace that had a cross on it tucked into my shirt the student that was sitting next to me was wearing a turban and the teacher didn't say anything to him and years later my little brother when he was in grade school was told that he was going to get a detention or sent home if he didn't put his Bible away that he was reading on his free time

I thought once about immigration to Canada although my economic situation didn’t incentivize me to immigrate. I found myself in a qualified position to immigrate. But when I consulted my wife, she opposed my plan and she’s absolutely right. We’re a middle class family. We have wonderful jobs. Live in our own home and run a small enterprise. Why should we immigrate and start building a new life in a country where the cost of living is insane?!

Brother, this is a common sense. Why didn't you find anything near to your college?

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

I’ve had uncomfortable interactions in retail stores here in Australia, because I’m a young mum (well not anymore but I have been, I had one baby at 19,21,25 and 27). Purely because they perceived me as a skank and drain on the tax payer to them. I’ve had someone ask if I had a concession card (low income/singles) and when I said “no” they’ve said “really?” Or asked me again as though I didn’t hear them. I’ve had people ask if my children all had the same dad. I would hate to think of how that would be exacerbated if I was a person of colour. I never judge anyone on first impressions but a lot of people do. It’s really sad.

Canada didn’t invent ice hockey, it was invented in Scotland and brought over to North America by Scottish immigrants as Shinty (a traditional Scottish form of hockey) on Ice hence the Canadian term ‘Shinnie’.

Drew I’m surprised you didn’t talk about the diversity in Canada where I am from in Canada it seems there are more people that came from third world countries than people born in Canada

I didn't see the part where they said canada has free education

I love ur content and watch every video, but I’m kinda pissed about this video becauseI feel like you didn’t give the US the respect it deserves

Remember when Canada evacuated a Saudi girl because Justin Trudeau had an election and wanted to look like he cared about human rights but didn’t evacuate a single Canadian stranded abroad ?

Drew u didn’t say both countries majority european descendants

I didn't know we invented hockey. I did know we invented basketball and baseball.

Wonderful. \nI’m from Canada. Thanks for posting from Canada. I’ve visited the USA many time and I love. I’ve been to Arizona, sad I didn’t meet you. Stay safe and hope to see many more videos

I lived all over the world. In Jamaica, I don't think I had a maid out of 15 of them over two years that didn't steal from me. From jewelry to cash, micro daily theft like 500g of rice at a time etc... In Shenzhen, China, i never had anything taken and I was not locking my door. That's just statistics at one point and experience. Never had a Chinese or Vietnamese being late on rents. I have a lot of other people default and leave in the middle of the night.

@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.

Black people need to know  about  African History not European  Culture ,    let me give u  a little  about   African  History , this  for Blacks in Canada ,  America and blacks  all over the world ,   Heres  history   About our people ,    thousands years ago on the continent of Africa ,  theres was place called Ancient Egypt ,  Egypt  was birth place of math, Science,  Philososphy,  and more ,   when Greeks , like Alaxander  came  to Egypt , he study the culture of Egyptians ,  and   Greek Philosopher like  Plato  and  other Greek Philosophers who study  for over 20 to 30 years  in  Ancient Egypt,   so Greeks stole knowledge  from  from the  Ancient  Egypt .   all the letters and words didn't come  Greece ,    the Greeks stole  it   from Egypt  ,   the greeks would put their stamp on their books , so you would think that Greeks    came up    with the Knowledge , but they  didn't  , it was Ancient  Egyptians .   Ancient Egypt is been around  10 to 20 thousands  years  before Greece and Rome ,  there was no other kingdom like  Ancient  Egypt ,    many people  from different  culture  came  to Study in Egypt , before Greece and Rome   snd Arabs and Europeans .    Africa was the light of the world .    everything that  we use today like  math, Science,  letters, and words  that we use come  from  Ancient  Egypt , so black people should  feel proud of   where they   come from  ,

This sikh didn't know his history, how islamic people brutalized , tortured & murdered sikhs..

My dad is a really big and tall Mexican man who is real tan. Me and him were at a store and we were looking around for video games. This lady was following us I swear! She kept asking like, do you need anything? Do you need help with anything? And I didn't really think a lot of it until I realized what darker skin people encounter in stores! That's ridiculous!
