It’s crazy because I just got fired for saying another ethnicity had a lower IQ. Say all you want about white people but don’t talk about anything other color.

I'm Canadian and I highly dislike Trudeau. But he is correct when he asks how do you negotiate with someone who wants to annex your country? I would suppose Trump supporters would have no problems with a hostile and aggressive foreign property developer targeting their homes. The world needs a strong America but you have lost your way. I fear the world is in for dark times

So many cucks bro. Im born here and yeah it sucks so many of my ppl came here but they are getting deprorted and many are going home. It was good for ppl here for a long time until the new ppl started showing up. Aside from that these videos make ppl who lived here for generations also look bad. A sikh solider on 1 stamp and everyone started freaking out without knowing context. Everyday i see ppl blaming the action of 1 person on everyone, culture, and etc. I see ppl actively lying and many ppl actaully believing in jt. These ppl highlight only the bad as the biggest picture leaving out the actual story.
First-person account of being born in Canada, critiquing both immigration policy and media representation while defending against stereotyping.

a few years back Brampton had a mayoral election and one of the people running was this guy John Sprovieri and he received and email complaining that a white man should not even be running because white people no longer have any business planning Bramptons future. He replied saying that people of all backgrounds want to come because of what white people built" he was sanctioned by the government for that comment and he was touted as a racist from then on. No comment was made about the indian woman who said white people shouldn't be allowed in the government in a Canadian city anymore. Last time I was in Brampton I was told to go back to my own country because I asked a group of indians who were playing indian music from concert volume speakers in a residential area at 1 am to turn it off. I don't think you captured a small fraction of how bad it is in Brampton.
Recounts personal experiences in Brampton with anecdotes about racial discrimination and demographic change, framed as evidence of societal problems.

Alberta, Canada: I just returned from shopping and I am happy to say that I managed to spend CAD $450 on groceries without spending a single cent on American products!
