islamaphobia is only a reaction. you know what is the cause ??

Hell yes. I applied for a bachelor's apartment today and they wanted credit and a criminal check. Was it cause I'm brown from Asia? I don't know, lets ask my friend who wasn't asked for any checks maybe cause he's caucasian. He also wanted to rent the same apartment.

Lmfao Canada Almost didn't let me in cause they didn't like the way I looked!!! It was Hilarious!!!

Rowdyism is in built in Koran Hadith and Sira in the name of a Great nationalist Arab 59 years after his death in 691 by Abdul Malik and continued till now all in his name is the root cause

There are 4200 religions in this world. Yet why is Islam the only one causing problems wherever they go?

im white girl and shoppers follows me too cause i have tattoos

Canada has been getting rich off all the Chinese immigrants for year's. Starting with Expo and the man that everyone loves Jim Pattison. Do your research. The growing Chinese population is rising and molding Canada to be a new version of China. The problem is that it's happening everywhere and the new problem is that it's become easier to play and flash the overused racist/discriminative card. If the government does not act now and recognize their manifestation of this major problem that is shifting Canada's true values and this will grow out of hand and it will be to late. Many Canadian's are already feeling the rage and soon someone's rage will explode causing a ripple. There has to be a conversation and although it appears it would be a late of a game play it still needs to be addressed and stop sweeping under rug. Canada is known for it's non confrontational image but someone will shake it up and it might be to late by then for the government to step in and of course not be accountable. They get a lot of money each year from the demographics and don't want to do much about the growing explosive problem. Housing is a key problem and the Chinese population has gravely diminished Canadian born lives and their families. Yes understandably their are many born Chinese immigrants but we are discussing the new blood with deceptive intentions.

Excuse me sir, what is the website to apply? My family has been in the U.S. since my great grandpa built the railroads and my grandpa fought in the U.S. Army against the Nazis on the shores of Normandy but now tRump has made my home unsafe for my Chinese, German and Mexican family. People are rioting on the streets, Covid 19 infested cops are disappearing peaceful protestors. He had caused my country to become a failed State. So sad.

You wear the Niqab to scare people. You know it causes offense, so the consequences are your own.

This is wrong thinking we all need to pull our money out of usa banks and go back to our countries cause revolutions to make them better than here so we can all live a better racist and stress free life and give tourist from here the same medicine as they gave us here see how they like it. is time to stand up as Latinos and pick up our balls or else we always gonna be view as dumb asses and outsiders.

Thank God There were the only filipinos there cause if not, he would have been killed?

The Canadian government gives ppl false hope...cause the more immigrants pay lawyers to richer the queen becomes...most illegal immigrants from south America are starting to save their money an move to other South American countries

Anybody wanna see what real systemic racism looks like, then watch APTN News. The stuff they show on these mainstream news networks is biased and censored. At least on APTN they don't hold anything back, and you might just be surprised how real racism really is in cxnxdx. We are not the shining example of reform that most cxnxdixn citizens think we are; and even if you think you have it all figured out, or you think we're all fighting for the same cause~ then you still have a lot to learn about racism in cxnxdx, Firstnations awareness, ethnic diversity, and how much xenophobia really has a hold on our country. Denial is NOT bliss, and my eyes have been wide opened. I love this country, but there are no rose coloured glasses here.

I mean racism is probably a big problem in canada..\n'But as a whole I think on the defund the police I think this is a one sided piece that didnt portray any defense of the police only criticism, in good journalism you need to let someone defend themselves and bring their perspective, this type of journalism is what you get if you have a ideologically possessed 23 year old fresh out of left wing college.. Perhaps learn real journalism try to portray facts not oppinions formost.. Journalism on a news outlet like this isn't supposed to be activicism but objectively portraying facts, and also doing interviews with people with different perspective.. Like perhaps interview Jordan Peterson and let him say stuff about group-politics actually agitating people and causing more conflict and more harm than healing..

Defund Canada’s police, fund gun companies that’s all I hear cause I won’t let no criminal have a safe work environment in my neighbourhood.

the moment we start putting people in categories rasism will emerge saying whites are rasist will cause more rasism\nthe solution? \ntreat all like human beings \nand hack at the root of all economic enegalities witch is the money itself \neducate yourself on how money gets created and you'll find out why we are collectively getting poorer

The problem seems to be that the premier’s don’t know the definition of systemic racism. Systemic racism is about institutions, governments, banks, schools, etc limiting access to minorities all minorities. It’s worse in Canada than it is in the US. Look at Canada how many black are in people if government are represented in the government. Look at the companies you work for how many minorities are CEO’s or CFO’s how many VP’s. This is why I say it’s worse in Canada than the US, cause at least in the US upward mobility is not limited to only one minority group but all visible minorities.

Class is what separates, your skin colour is the not why you are separated. Your wealth or lack of, is what separates you, not your race. Poor people have more crime because they have less not because of the colour of their skin. Gangs dont form to separate colour but to make money. There is organized crime everywhere, you've opened your eyes to racism. Now open them and see you've let organized crime into your business world now you aid in the laundering of criminals money. Those criminals formed gangs to disperse their drugs. The drugs promote crime and those that are convicted of crimes go to jail. If you have money you can support your drug habit, if you cant crime goes up. Rich people do drugs like poor people but poor people cant support it so crime becomes the means to get the next fix. Again it is lack of money that is causing crime. The reason it appears there are fewer white people arrested is the white people had opportunity from racism in the form of slavery. All the slaves would have nothing when slavery was abolished. Racism was the reason we had slaves. Economics is why we have gangs.

I meet a a White Historian on Black history in London Ontario. He told me stuff that is not mentioned in popular history of events here in the past and the States connection. It was Amazing. I won’t mention. May cause some controversy. If with evidence. Would understand why it may not want to have been known in Canada’s History.

They are everywhere just put out the whole earth on fire. cause the earth doesnt deserve this thrashtalking.

Every shoppers drug Mart I've been to ever, always had a white woman at the comsetic section. There's plenty of other people who could do that job. Come on shoppers. Security follows me everywhere cause i'm Hispanic. I notice they stop hovering me if I am very well spoken though. Weird observation?

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.

Then covering means you are above everyone. That's what you said. It causes discrimination.

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

these are extremist govt should stop them people in muslim countries vote have dogs and do all other kind there are fashionable womens too these are just some extremist which have created problem in muslim majority but i think there population is less as you can see the boy from masjid they have cause harm to muslim the tention is also growing between hard islamist and moderate muslims in muslim majority countries too

she is Islamic every time Islam is present this is what you see Americans put them in office and now they are crying what are we gonna do, Obama set this up he said he was a Christian to hide this takeover we all seen this coming and did nothing and now it is happing you want taxpayers who has non Islamic state reps and non Islamic Governors to help pay to fix your states I hope President Trump says no to all the dem states they have harassed republicans since Hillary lost ran their mouths with hate speech causing division , using terms like white privilege , not realizing how many live below the poverty level ask us how privileged we feel , ask us how we like watching people from Islamic countries sitting the white house as senators state reps or governors , we have seen what happened in other countries that took in all the Islamic refugees from Pakistan , Syria Somalia Ghana , we have 4 million people in this country who hate Jewish , Christian , Catholic , and all non Muslims, who have pretended to integrate , and say they will build a Muslim infrastructure in 2020 and plan to get rid of Trump and open the country for open immigration to , Syria , Pakistan , Somalia any and Islamic countries will be welcome

After working in hospitality industry serving many people in local and international blacks don’t tip or undertip. I became more racial profiling towards black they tend to cause trouble, try to get every free service and tip only $1 for entire bill.

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.

From the black shoplifters I knew from r/Shoplifting back before it was shut down it was common knowledge that there was racial profiling. If you were white you had an advantage, so we would have strategies for the non-whites to mitigate the risk but ultimately the best advice was just to watch out more cause your at a higher risk of getting caught.\n\nI quit that stuff that long ago though

Cool video! I'm from the United States, and I've been to Canada back in May 2001. I was 11 at the time, but it was part of a 3-day trip with my elementary school. We were in Toronto. I miss my experience there so much. Although I'm not a fan of cold weather, I would love to be back in Canada because new healthcare here in the U.S is too hard for me to get. I typed this comment on May 31st 2020 when at the time violence and riots are occurring in the United States cause of police brutality......again! + COVID-19's still a major issue.

Tell you what, we got too many immigrants causing trouble, breaking the law, and a burden on the social system to pretend that things are peachy keen in this country, look at Toronto and the gun fights, wake up, this country is turning into a 3rd world.

They should have included multiple races, not only black and white. Your causing people to choose between two, not much of choice.

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

Eliminate racism at its root cause. As long as crime rate by race is disproportionate, people with common sense are going to stereotype.\nTry test this by walking into detroit when you are black, white and asian.. some might not literally survive.

Cause heaven forbid people think what they want

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.

Anti-Islamic sentiment should be celebrated. It is Islamophillia that should be the cause for concern. Muslim immigration is a cause for concern. If Muslims are feeling concerned about their safety, then they can stop being Muslim.\nDenounce Mohammed and all his works. Exonerate Allah of any involvement in the unholy Koran.

Drew Forgot something Canada is beter xD true know why i said that cause me canadian xD LOLOLOL

My opinion is... I love both countries cause they speak English. \nThe reason I love the USA = Big pizzas, and burgers\nThe reason I love Canada = Cold climate, friendly people\n\nDisclaimer: I've never been to this countries before, hope someday I'll go and experience their culture ?

I think lots of these are stereotypes like especially the food cause I'm a canadian and think that maple syrup is way to sweet ,I also think the street are way less busy in canada and in canada where I live there are way less fast food joint's like I have never seen taco bell or chipotle in canada and where I live in bc It doesn't snow alot

Any person educated on middle eastern politics knows that it is not Islam that is causing bloodshed over there, but rather politics and the pro-dictators vs democrats. For instance, Syria's war outbreak is because of the regime's dictators war against people who want political freedom.

The stupidity of Trudeau is mind boggling. He has caused a lot of unnecessary suffering for these people.

These guys are giving Muslim’s a bad name and more a disgrace to there religion, Laos of people of difference in there religions live together-fine in peace until idiots like this start causing trouble.

Where are the leaders of the countries these people are running away from? Why arent they held responsible? Why are these people other countries pronlems? We have crime too why cant these people get a handle on it? Looking for a govt upgrade is not cause for asylum

Stop saying that Muslims need to go back to their Muslim countries, GREAT IDEA but first leave their countries alone first, stop causing wars, financial crisis and other issues in their countries and all of them will happily go back to their so called sharia law countries and guess what????? we will have a major problems in running many different systems in our amazing democratic countries such as the medical industry, just a fun fact..... most of our physicians and pharmacists are actually Muslims also they are the core to so many sectors in N-America and Europe...... I really want them to make that big decision and go back to their home countries and serve their homes just so you all would UNDERSTAND how important these people are to us and why our governments are actually accepting them and even attracting them to come and live, work here but they will never admire these great humans just becouse they are Muslims (history shows that we were the haters and terrorists against them, they were always trying to protect themselves and their land from us) but again we never really learn from history.........

I believe Trudope wants to cause this pandemic to spread out of control in Canada to totally bankrupt us.

Every one of these illegals will cause problems in Canada for years to come. They are already breaking the law on day one. And they will cost billions of dollars in social services in their lifetimes, and contribute nothing that poor Canadians cannot do themselves.

Keep Up The Amazing Journalism Rebel News Media.!!!. ???????? p.s. I Sent Some Money To Ezra During His Live Chat To Help Our Cause..

Is the media it causes the racism

If it were true, Canada is much smarter than America . Cause American Taxpayers get royally screwed in cost!!
