I don't know about that computer test. hardly seems scientific.

What a good guy, btw, really hard to me to understand u

If we want to have equality lets just rip this off like a bandaid. Equality - no one gets any special treatment based on their race or gender. No special funds locked behind race. No special programs locked behind race or gender. No more pity partys - just equality. Take full responsibility and accountability for your own success or failure and earn your keep. Born to a wealthy family? Lucky. Born to a poor family? Unlucky. Either way you have more class mobility in a capitalistic western society than anywhere else in the world. Work hard and you can have an entirely different lifestyle in 3-4 years.

This country is being ripped apart, it’s so sad to watch. No one wants to come to the table and talk ,equal rights for every one, why is that so hard to come by in this country?

Don't migrate, fix your own country.. it's hard, yes..

Sure, Canada has the odd incident that makes headlines. However, these incidents are often isolated and certainly do not rise to the level of injustice often perpetuated in the US. Consequently, it's hard for me to believe in Canadian movements specifically targeting the Canadian police for racism against black people. I do believe in Canadian movements that show support to the overall BLM movement, though. Imo, the race we constantly overlook as a society, and who bear the full brunt of systemic racism in Canada, are the Aboriginal peoples.

Honestly, it's hard to say. These men are not equal in looks in my opinion. There's something to say about attractive people getting preferential treatment. Not that there isn't racism. There definitely is. But it's hard to quantify with these experiments.

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.

It's so blatant what's going on now. This isn't about race. This is about divide. Whoever these people are who are telling what these companies/media to say are clearly trying to get us fighting each other. It really seems like they're trying to divert attention. If we're all fighting each other we're not paying attention to what's happening to the side. \n\nPlease people. Right, left, black, white, blue, yellow, atheist, or religious. We need to come together. They are using our beliefs against us. I know it's hard to see other's views when they are so radically different than your own, but we have to look at the bigger picture.

There is no systemic racism in Québec? lol, has this guy ever did the paper driving exam? Even as a native French speaker, it is hard to understand the poorly written questions. How do you think an immigrant does when they need to pass this test in less than 6 months to be able to do keep his job and can't always pass the test in his own language?

as a white canadian that live in a 800 people village i dont see those problems but its not hard to belive

This issue is very very complex actually. When we even try to define systemic racism the definition itself does not give justice. it also involves a lot of quid pro quos and cronyism. it's a demon which is very hard to exercise from society...like Azazel from 'Fallen'

People hardly notice that I’m black. The only thing they see is my hijab?? ?

I’m brown and I completely agree that racism is bad in Canada. I have heard n-words towards black people with the hard r, racism towards me, east asians, etc. High school was hell for me and the blatant racism continues with various friends and family. It was always overlooked and Ive been followed and pulled over by RCMP for no reason. RACISM EXISTS IN CANADA AND I LIVED WITH IT MY WHOLE LIFE AND IM ONLY IN MY EARLY 20S\nStats back it up as well. Indigenous and black people overrepresented in prison

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.

I don't know of any YouTube channel that gets ratioed as hard and as consistently as CBC. I think that's why they always turn comments off.

I guess canada is just bunch of liars like USA. They discriminate hard workingmen and women . They don't help out families escaping from danger countries. If you think salvador is not an danger country I don't know what else.

I am from Canada abd what bothers me about some immigrants is that they bring their customs ,and beliefs to my country.. I find that hard to tolerate . Leave your customs behind . I can understand why there is racism

Why does life have to be so hard and stressful for some? People are assholes. Id rather be an animal than a human sometimes.

That hard R came outta the bushes on me.

Racism is more in the open now, I am a senior and really do not know what words they use to discriminate these days, however my husband and I were walking in Walmart one day, then in between the aisles a disabled youth was walking with his mother and was coming towards us, then he said look, look a cockroach and pointed at us. My husband looked at me and I looked at him, no one else around,we realized he was calling us cockroach, needless to say, we thought hmmm, that person could hardly walk and he is calling us cockroach. We walked out of the store totally shocked. I was later told young people are getting their info from the dark web. We called it ignorance and left it that.

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

I feel for anyone being discriminated against, here its really hard to get an apartment if you are on assistance, ODSP. Is for disability of many types. All you need to do to see it is go on kijiji. Students and working individuals. And you might think they have their reasons but I have paid my bills. I am quiet, if that isn't discrimination. Enough said. That guy is a scared guy. Scared of change. But that is another discrimination , any woman who walks alone may be subject to unwanted attention. OK I'm done now! Much love to all.

And also one of the most expensive countries to travel and lodging. So might never travel here, will lose lots of hard earned money.

Merko bhi aana ka canada aur kitna ielts score lana hoyga centennial college ka liya kuch detail hai toh bro bata dena and appreciate your hard work

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.

whites have been the benefactors of laws placed in front of minorities to propel themselves. It had mothing to do with hard work. Just opportunities given. start from the great depression when everyone was at the bottom. then examine what the G.I bill did for whites and only 2% of blacks who served in the same war that denied them free college education and home loans

8:17 BEST BUY Hello people Just before the COVID 19 pandemic struck our Country, in the United States of America. My son and I were shopping at Best Buy. We had more than five or six different people ask if we needed assistance. My Son would say no thanks, and I would ask each one that did ask if I needed help, to help me. That associate would show me where to look, then try real hard to get away from me. This happened at least five to six times. All six times, I said yes. Finally, they stopped asking me and continued to ask my son. The reason my son would say no thanks is because he was just looking. I, on the other hand, had questions about what I wanted to buy. They did a great job answering all of my questions, however, when it came to buying what I wanted to buy most of all of the associates had either left the area or went home, because I could not find anyone when it came down to purchasing the items I wanted, only to find out what I wanted was made in China, They no longer carry the product, in their stores, or online. However, they still had the items on display; however, you just could not buy them. P.S. We are white.

Please give Canadian English podcasts for celpip general, is it hard to pass than ielts

Nice Bhai g hard work make man good

Hard to diggest ... what she said @5.32

All my Muslim boy classmates are in love with Hindu girls... it's amazing.. they hardly talk religion .. but the girls have started wearing hijab.. and posting photos.. for everything they say Subhan Allah and it's amazing. Love knows no religion... especially for Muslim boys... I love how soon India will become a Muslim majority.

Most of these Ninja dressed folks are the extremist end of Muslims.\n\n\nThe average Muslim immigrant (Atleast from Indian Subcontinent) works hard, goes through all the loops of legal immigration and even works to put in effort to adjusting to Canadian Culture. From my (Personal Perspective) all legal immigrants should make 100% effort to learning the countries culture they immigrate to its the least we can give in return as immigrants and also work towards contributing towards Canada's economy instead of leeching it. There are certain crazy extremes but the average Muslim works towards his / her bread & butter to live another day.

Think it's been a year and a half since I've seen this page and I'm astonished the amount of growth that has happened, truly unbelievable congrats bro just show consistency and hard work actually pays off ?

The hate comments on this video are really too many. And as I know most of the foreigners don't watch this channel, I think most of these are butt hurt people who couldn't do anything in their life and are jealous of those in the video. Or some other state people jealous of Punjabis all over the world and completely dominating India. \n\nAnd I give a rats ass about your patriotism if you can't respect other people's choices. that's what we Indians are famous for - not respecting anybody's choices and going on with moral policing. \n\nAnd as for questioning their patriotism, the send more money back to India than you Guys will ever earn in your life. And they are citizens of their country, pay taxes and work hard and are obviously proud of their adopted nation.

Props to you drew you still working hard

i really enjoy you`re videos, but that one was awful...you`re facts... you learn that in school...\nfor sure it is difficult and we we have all such hard times....\ndrew....better film you`re personal life or something else....but that`s just so bad....sorry... \nbut anyway all the best for you and you`re family

Hats of to Drew's dedication for his work! Despite of him stuck in lockdown & short of content as being a travel vlogger, he’s still trying his best to provide us content every single day! It’s my humble request to all Drew's fans to never forget to Like ? his video for his hard work...

This is play-pretend journalism. If they -actually- wanted to do real journalism and not some undeserved-guilt-provoking, race-baiting propaganda piece, they would have had to go the extra mile and cross-reference such behaviors with cold-hard statistics about crime convictions by ethnicity, showing that the discriminatory behavior is entirely based on racism and not on statistical risk. We're all virtue-signaling non-racists in front of the cameras but at the end of the day, when you're a clerk or a shop owner and you know those stolen items are going to come out of your paycheck one way or another, you have to face reality and analyze patterns in order to survive. Wherever those may lead you to. Sorry not sorry.

People's are trying to figure out why more Black people's are being affected by this virus because God is trying to bring his own chosen people's to repentence and they're to stupid to understand God has all ways been hard on his Chosen People's then any other nations in the world and all ways has been and that's the truth.

Has been in the U.S for 15 years and doesn't know a lick of English. hmmmm. Wonder why immigrants say it's so hard?

Why the liberal smart media found it hard to understand the reality of Islam

Hard to close borders when you dont have any!!!!!

hard to think this is happening.what a joke .and to think the people near there think it is ok

TRUMP closing IT TODAY ? it's a good thing I KNOW JUST ❤ YOU is all and saying goodbyes are HARD ???? I'LL miss you but SEE you in AWHILE ❤ AMERICA

Someone needs to set up a mobile Television station that could hijack the airwaves long enough to get this out to the many who still watch regular tv. It's hard to believe that something like this is actually required, in what is supposed to be a free and democratic country, but unfortunately, it is.

I have a great respect for law enforcement but seeing this crap it's so hard to have anymore respect

Canada the only country in the the world that treats dirt-bag free loaders better then the hard working tax payer!

It’s incredible to watch people stroll right in. Hopefully blackface gets it hard

I’m so sorry for all of you precious people of Canada! You’re our neighbors (the state of Tennessee USA here) and we see you’re having to put up with everything the Democrats want to do to us if they come into power this November. (The only way they could do that is voter fraud, which is exactly what happened in what we call the mid-term elections in November 2018, when some House of Representatives and Senate seats come open in the two-year cycle halfway thru the Presidential elections - that’s how they won the House back) \n\nThat poor displaced family, though. Bless them; officials need to get to the bottom of where they’ve been, where they actually have citizenship, and attend to them properly and GET CANADIANS HOME! President Trump needs to go up there and jerk a knot in Mr. Trudeau’s rear end. (That’s an old country Southern saying; don’t overthink it please!?? We finally have a President who may be a little bristly, but he loves America and Americans and he is working hard for us!)\n\nBut seriously, wish you much success and although I can’t monetarily, our greatest weapon is prayer and my armor is on (Ephesians 6)!!! Keean, you’ve stepped up to the plate because you love Canada and want to do what’s right by her! You’re doing a wonderful job - “absolutely fantastic” as my YouTube friend Mentour pilot would say. So we hope the situation gets resolved quickly, because this virus is taking its toll on everyone in more ways than one, and in ways we’ve not even seen yet and have no way to predict. Keep looking up though! And make sure you belong to Jesus Christ . Amen!
