Very good Man, keep it up. My children( son & daughter) also residing in Brampton did there initial part time job as you described in the video, but I proud that Guys never hesistate. My Daughter still says Papa everyone who comes here in Canada has to start from Zero.

But not as much as in the US is still not good enough .. "No racism at all" is what we want !!!

Even with our faults I can’t help but believe we are still one of the best. Especially with how things are looking for our neighbours to the south.

I’ve lived on both sides of the border (New York and Ottawa/Gatineau). I am white. And I’ve been pulled over on both sides wile I was driving and wile a black person was driving. I’ve seen scary difference between the interactions with the police. Though the US cops are a little more harsh to the black people the Canadians ones weren’t much better. If you deny that is happening in Canada your wrong. If you deny it’s happening in the US your wrong. It happens no matter what side of that imaginary line on. Be the change you wanna see. If your white use your privilege to promote change. And for everyone, go to protest (safety there is still a pandemic going on), sign petitions, vote and get involved with government. Both sides of the border have the chance to make things right, act now!

If they our and the govt is still letting planes in from china , in from virus hot spots, other countries it's not being prejudice worrying about catching co vid , getting sick may be dying , the govt , the tv media it's there fault they have put so much fear into the population , plus on CBC , global a infectious disease expert said 15 percent of the cases were from international essential travelers in two months 270 came to Canada, example say 20 confirm 3 our from international essential tavelers , about mask, how come cases our going up as soon as they make people ware mask, grocery stores, all workers and people keep touching them , letting them down for a second to catch there breath,, scratching there face , now it's contaminated , it's the same with the whole country , carry alcohol and a running water, carrying a sink around all the time to be 100 percent safe from wearing mask.\n, in hospital medical professional , even touch there mask , face too , get contaminated ,so how do you think 2 years and above can have that kind of control. The insanity .\nJesus Christ is the way truth and life ?❤️ peace.

There is lot of emotion in this piece, but not very much context or fact. Indigenous people suffer from addictions and mental illness more than the rest of Canada due -inter generational trauma, and resulting loss of dignity. While racism exists today, even if we were to eradicate entirely, indigenous people would still need help due to the damage done in the past. The solution is not fomenting more bitterness and resentment. This is not an easy fix and indigenous people need to be part of it. We need to find a solution where they can rediscover their identity, foster healthy norms within their own nation, while also being part of this nation. Look up Durkheim. Defunding the police is an utterly idiotic idea. Police need more training, and hence more funding, to help them do a better job.

I'm still waiting for CBC to do as your former Yukon Morning host asked. Produce the program on how the CBC has contributed to and still contributes to systemic racism. Where is it CBC? I'm waiting.

You ? it's been here forever! After they ROB u they still have u in a chains. Peek - a - boo!!!!!

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.

We are different than the us but the people aren't they still don't like the blacks in Canada

To me, a democratic society is an equal and just society for each and every citizen. Freedom is where every citizen has all their civil rights in that democratic society. This means we should be valued and treated equally under every circumstance.\n\nI'm a Canadian and I can see we are not doing that by over-policing black and indigenous communities, by denying indigenous communities the ability to participate in Canadian society with their own culture in tact and by our biases about people with other ethnicities, like Asians and East and West Indians.\n\nWe may not be bad as the US, but we are still doing these things. It needs to be addressed and rectified if we ever want to be a truly self-aware, equal and just democratic society for every citizen.\n\nRegardless of the political party we support, I can't fathom why every citizen would not want an equal and just democratic society for themselves and their fellow citizens, as it improves everyone's lives.

This video did a decent job of presenting some evidence regarding systemic racism in Canada. While we are better than the US in this aspect, we still have large room for improvement. However, I disagreed with the comments at the end regarding prime Minister Trudeau's knee. At the very least, that is a symbolic move showcasing his solidarity and empathy with oppressed individuals and his commitment for a better future. A mistake 20 years ago shouldn't devalue his 20 years of evolution and growth. Hopefully, the knee is accompanied by efforts aimed at police reforms and improved mental health support.

hello I am a production operator in a plastics factory operating the machines and also I don't have that much education but is it still possible for me to move to canada in a few years time. just looking for some advise

I still do believe that the First nation people has always had it worst than anyone else in Canada.

QUESTION POSED TO ALL WHO SEE FOR POLING PURPOSES: DO WE HAVE THE INDIGENOUS ACT OF CANADA OR THE INDIAN ACT? OH BY THE WAY WE,TREATY MEMBERS, ARE STILL SUBJECTS TO THE CROWN. ARE CAUCASIAN CANADIANS SUBJECTS OF THE CROWN? OF COURSE NOT, WE ONLY REFER TO WHITE CITIZENS OF THIS COUNTRY AS CANADIANS ITS IMPLIED AND UNDERSTOOD BUT HEY LETS PUT OTHER ETHNICITIES BEFORE CANADIAN SUCH NATIVE CANADIAN , AFRICAN CANADIAN JAPANESE CANADIANS

Why not focus on countries that still have slavery ?

It says on the CA website that you need skills in 0 A or B NOC. That’s still pretty specific to say that you don’t need much of an education

Why are we fighting over racism. It's not going away. 100 yrs from now it will still be a problem. We as humans will all ways profile stragers. We can't help it. In every race we have the same problem. Like any thing else, we have to find a peaceful way to get along.

This is nice to know but I still want to move to one of my favorite cities in Canada. I've had enough of visiting and hating to leave and the US, well, I'm pretty much over it.

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

Canada is full of racism and that’s a fact. There is not much of the difference with the States either. Only difference is that Canada’s racism comes in the form institutional and systemic racism. The states have a way bigger platform than Canada so their situations regarding racism will be covered more than Canada’s and also Canada hides behind the “it’s such a diverse country” statement to diverge from the issue of racism. Ask yourself this- Which country do you see a wider diverse representation of, concerning the people in power? In Toronto we just had our first black police chief(which was a big thing here) a few years back while in the States they’ve been having people of colour and many minorities in power. Representation of different ethnic backgrounds is an issue here but nevertheless the states still have a long way to go with racism. I love Canada so much but there is absolutely racism that this country will not bother to even acknowledge

I think a little racism is in everyone of us. Our ancestors programmed us to be so. How? When the first tribes settled down, new people trying to enter the formed territory would have been confronted with hostility. This behavior is still in us. In some more, in others less.

It’s crazy they have cameras but still watch people or it’s because he had a bag with him

This is so sad. These things still happening in Canada and around the world

The all ways look black people when subwhites be stilling lake crazy. Property managers evening in Georgia like that shows discriminate against blacks white and black people pay more rent in in Spanish

I was arrested with my then partner, because we matched the description of Native Americans in a brown pickup truck, yes I still to this day have “armed robbery” charges on my record 34 years later. Just last year my granddaughter and I were in Target, when I noticed a guy following us around, I asked ‘ “why are you following us around” no answer, but filled us until we were done shopping and left the store, he followed us right out the front door!

Love you videos it's sad to say people are still like this today don't understand they mentally they are very sad people

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.

This experiment was so true and still happens everywhere.... Its not just about our race or ethnicity its about how we raise our children ❤️

Sill now more that ever??still!??

I live in Victoria, and take this. I worked in a place, where the manager was from Asia, and she treated me like hell forcing me to move to another department, claiming she doesn't need an assistant. NEXT day she hired an Asian girl. She obviously needs an assistant, but because she wanted an Asian with her, she did that. And now you go to that department and you find all employees are from her country. Talk about racism, it's everywhere. And yes when an Asian or a black treat others in a wrong way, it's still called racism. People only shout racism when it comes from the White while we do see racism from others, but we don't hear anyone condemning it

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.

I love when the USA and Canada play against each other in hockey, especially during the Winter Olympics.\nEdit: I'm from the US, and I was only seven years old when Crosby scored the golden goal in the Gold Medal match Vancouver 2010. After all these years, it still hurts thinking about it, but what to do, *hockey is Canada's game!*

It always disappoints me to see that because of the fact Québec isn't its own country people still ignore its culture and proceed to just show Canadian aspects (not Québec aspects). Therefore, Vive le Québec libre!\nAlso Poutine, Maple Syrup (sirop d'érable) come from Québec.

If I was not from Canada I would agree with you on free healthcare, truth is healthcare is in free because you have to pay taxes, and not to mention Canada puts all their taxes towards that thing you still have to pay taxes to pay for it, No wonder the world thinks America stupid

Gm edagdwg thanks for sharing this story of were am I in the United States of America but why only the black people are not able to make a real living still happening today sad Linda j peace pay attention to what you are doing around people that don't want you around sad ?at what is happening around you Linda j peace ❤️???

I've been to the USA and Canada (Alabama, Florida and Georgia in the USA; and Alberta and BC in Canada). I really liked both of them, but I preferred the Canadian food and people. Also, British and Canadian spelling is literally the same; we still have colour, favourite, and realise.\n\n\nI really liked the video Drew, but I'm pretty sure apple pie is British, and it's amazing here :/

In this 21st century I still encounter Acadian people who don't believe that an Acadian woman (my mother) had a child with a Bermudan man.

It really inspires me that the inspite all the challenges Drew has travelled to so many countries and still is doing so. During this time of uncertainty it is amazing that you create travel content even when your stuck at home. I am waiting for the rest of your videos to come out.

This was super fast; I was still making my sandwich!\nOh, and I definitely still use pennies! Wtf?!

To be honest, I am not fond of Scottsdale. It was 5 years of too much heat for me. I'm not accustomed to such hot weather. However have you already done videos of the place? If there is a lockdown, you can still do outdoor shots. Are you able to show some footage of downtown Mesa? I thought it was cute. The church Natalie Wood and Robert Wagner married? Then they had their reception at the Valley Ho (love that hotel). Is Sacred Hogan restaurant still open for takeaway? Maybe show us some of that native cuisine. There is that Persian grocery on North Scottsdale Road. Also that Frank Lloyd Wright architecture on on N. Scottsdale at the Promenade or was it Kierland? The death/crime scene of Bob Crane from Hogan's Heroes? I also remember some Jewish store on North Scottsdale Road. Next to it was a little Jewish grocery and no-frills restaurant.

Wow I never knew of Canada's prejudices. I encounter a lot of Toronto ppl in NYC that I'm not keen on but their personalities just remind me of folks you encounter on the upper Eastside. I have southern roots (SC and MS) and have grown up in Missouri most my life so I know racism. I would hope it couldn't be worse than that in Canada, as I still do want to visit one day soon.

One big thing is that Canada is Metric, the US is Imperial, Canada is still a monarchy, wheres the US is a republic.

Props to you drew you still working hard

Canada uses metric system but US is still sticking with FPS system

A main difference is that Canada is better because hey, Canada has still the crown as their head of state\n\nEnd.

Drew always comes with something unique, even thought he is not travelling now his ideas and thought still on World tour finding Content for us.

football still not soocer

We had pennies in canada till about 2013.. then stores/banks stopped accepting them .. still find those things everywhere tho !! haha

Actually , Canada is still close the Britain , to the Crown , USA is multi national countrie , there is not an american ethnicity , just a lot of mixture between blacks and hispanic and the largest european origin majoritiy , so in my opinion Canada should stay independent !
