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?

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 feel being prejudiced in subtle ways every day when i was new to this country. Now with me settled here for some time, i feel less, but police especially the white police has always made me feel they are judging me based on my race, gender. They lie a lot, They should be defunded!

The government favors the rich thats who they made sure got the monopoly on the cannabis market. In my opinion we need less government all together.

As a fellow black man I think we've all had to deal with the you fit the description story. As a teen I almost missed my school bus one day and less than 300 ft. from my house a female white cop stops me with the you fit story. I think what saved me was the fact I had my backpack on.

0:15 me:quick disclaimer i am ?canadian 1:39 less peeps more space we have plenty come over 2:40 I LOVE POUTINE i get it all the time

Now where-Oh-WHERE did José get the Idea that he could just illegally walk into Canada from the U.S., from which he and his family came to be, illegally!? \n\n95% of the immigrants coming into Canada from the U.S. are under some type of deportation threat, so they come into Canada. The trouble is when 50k come into Canada in less than 3yrs, it overwhelms Canada's Social Welfare System, what to do with Canada's own homeless, unemployed, uneducated, sick,....Add the recession/Whuflu and it's a perfect storm.

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.

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

the irony is there is less racism (overt anyway) amongst upper class whites, lower class whites displaying racism is hilarious because their poor. I'd rather be rich and black than poor and white ANY day.

Set white people like Hispanics always end up paying less rent than white or black so discrimination also against some whites come to new pact shuls in Duluth Georgia Duluth Georgia

What I mean by that is most of the job's are given to Brown people as they do better work for less money because they are not privileged and do the best work this is the fault of not black or white

How can u fine the guy less than he made in fraud???

I feel nothing wrong with racism. Racism is like social classes when you have no minority in the country. Accept it then you will feel less shocked.

There will never ever be an end to racism,there will always be the silent majority that detest the black people,\nand it is not just America it's worldwide and unfortunately it's a problem that's never going away.There are\nwhite people that literally have no time for coloureds and in reality couldn't care less what anybody thinks\neither,we live in sad times.

Mark was approached no less than 3 times in one visit. The last time I went to Best Buy I was looking for wireless headphones. Was approached within the first 5 minutes... I said that I was still looking... then nothing. My husband said that’s what they do... they don’t want to smother you. I had to track someone down when I finally had a question. So...?

So more importantly how can we improve our true inner race bias?. If we dont feel like we are racists how can we become less so?

Canada is less racial than US

I'm not white, have lived in Canada for 40+ years, and I have never been been racially profiled or been a victim of any blatant racism. Even now, living outside the GTA where it's less diverse, I've yet to experience any issues. I'm not saying those issues don't exist, but the first step to overcoming those problems is to stop with your own victim mentality. Not everything is about race, but that's the always the scapegoat for many when they fail at life.

I have seen handguns that were less loaded.

She'd get even less money if she did it from inside a cardboard box. How do you expect people to trust you if you hide your face.

Means a lot less jobs for people from here

These two countries are very similar every side like currency name, area language culture political system education ..... etc except the population although they are almost same equal area why US is so populated and canada is less densely populated That is not fair I don’t understand here ??

Gun culture & violence in the us, we don't have guns in Canada and we have lot less violence/crimes.

At least two more differences between the US and Canada (I'm a Montrealer myself with American-born parents):\n\n1) When going to the different parts of Canada, they feel that much more different from each other (in the buildings, highway signs, etc.) than the different parts of the US. For example, British Columbia feels like a foreign country compared to not just Quebec (the most obviously different province in Canada) but also compared to Nova Scotia or Manitoba, whereas Washington state or Minnesota is less different than Pennsylvania or Massachusetts.\n\n2) Native Americans (or First Nations, as they're called in Canada) make up a way higher proportion of the Canadian than American population, though less so percentage-wise in Montreal or Toronto or even Quebec City, and they are thus much more in the consciousness of the average Canadian than the average American.

Surveys show consistently that Canadians are much more liberal-minded on social issues like gay marriage, capital punishment, decriminalization of drugs and abortion. Canadians have always been able to travel to Cuba. \nAlso, Canadians are far less religious than Americans and religion plays no part in our politics. In other words, Canadians are more like Europeans.

I’m Mexican ?? And Canada actually supports migrants making the workforce stronger and it gives people a chance to live a good life, they are also less racist in my opinion VIVA CANADA ??❤️

Oh my god I live in England which is nearly one of the smallest country. its smaller than california but it has 20 million more residents then Canada\n\n\nOk i get it. Canada has a lot of its space using up natural habitats and islands so less people \nBut England surprisingly has 55 million people

Because of less pollution \nPeople can see Canada right here from Punjab, India.

1:41 Canada has less people than California, despite being much much bigger

I agree with the video.\n\nBut there’s a lot of Canadians who would go nuts after seeing this video. In their view, the less Canada looks like the USA, the better it is.

Hey Drew, great video, I can't comment on the US side but since I'm Canadian, here is a few things I could clarify:\n1. Football isn't really big in Canada, some people watch it but it's not really popular. Soccer isn't big either but more people follow it.\n2. While Canada has a few political parties, it's essentially a 2 party, plus system. Where only the two major parties are ever in power, and a few extra ones are just there.\n3. From what I know tipping is big in Canada but a bit less then in the US, in most restaurants it's acceptable to tip 13%\n\nOverall great video, stay safe!\nChag sameach

My personal take is that Canada is safer, friendlier, colder, and the system is less corrupt, whilst the U.S. is bigger, more influential, and more fun if you live in a major city.

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

Canada's slightly less racist, but only overall.

Everything in Canada is more expensive food, cars, gas due to their health care. Fresh food in Canada is even more expensive because is imported. No wonder why has less inhabitants compare to the USA.

As long as there’s white people there is racism. But Canada is way less racist than the U.S.A.

Reasons for Canadians to move to the USA:\n\n\n1. Less taxes\n\n\n2. Less taxes\n\n\n3. Less taxes\n\n\n4. Less Taxes\n\n\n5. Less Taxes\n\n\n6. Less Taxes\n\n\n7. Less Taxes\n\n\n8. Less Taxes\n\n\n9. Less Taxes\n\n\n10. Less Taxes

Sorry dude, but nobody's life is on the line. This Wuhan pandemic is garbage. I mean look at the comparison to the flu. To date there have been 22 000 deaths vs Wuhan has less than 60 N. America wide. \nNo I'm not a Trudeau supporter, he's a fkg idiot.

well the point is never feel less.. you are always better than them. don't apply Asian respect on people who can't understand Asian manner and respect.

Due to too many unhappy citizens of many lands, most productive, constructive countries are over- flooding with other nations peoples. It’s too much. When a person goes somewhere other than their own land less and less of these countries are willing to allow any more refugees in their country. Why because it’s about economics. In economic in an economy all things must be paid for. This is an Democratic society, almost all things are available through businesses. The medium of exchange for all ‘goods and services ‘ are conducted through the means of money. The masses of our nations people are not wealthy. Which most indulge themselves in employment. Employment in exchange for hours of pay we get paid.!The person most quailed to be employed are the citizens of these nations and not other nations people. What I am saying is that each land is more interested in their own home grown employee. So when you the non resident come without our permission you are the one placing yourself and your family in peril. Which means you are responsible for the pain and losses you suffer do to you either misunderstandings or non-available knowledge. Work towards asking for a better government for your own home land. And less people will be disappointed when you are rejected from lands who are already too filled !

Muslim people to Muslim countries !!\nChristian people to Christian countries !!\nBuddhist people to Buddhist to Buddhist countries etc !!!\nThis is the best way for less problems between people!!!

God this documentary is so flawed. The symphony? Really? You are comparing the 50s from today? There were much less immigrants in Canada back then. There were less immigrants and ppl of color that played instruments. And those that did, less of them actually tried out for a symphony. And then the blind resume test totally proved no bias. In fact I think it might be the opposite. I’m American (but I have a horribly foreign name). Americans looking for jobs, I think, eh... another goofball lazy American. But if I see a foreign name, I assume they might be more serious and work harder because of old school family values.

Me being an international student in Montreal some times feel the opposite way people don’t follow me they actually pretend to ignore and talk less bcuz I don’t know French and and I m a brown beard guy lollllll.....but I never mind ...........though 90 percent of Canadians are really polite people at least that I could say after 10 months in this city

As a minority in Alberta; I used to not believe that Caucasians aren't openly prejudicial until you get to a professional setting and find your voice isn't heard or less talented caucasian gets your promotion. As far as racial profiling goes; most shoplifters are white

Now try going to China, or south Africa while being white and see if its any different. Most likely not. The difference is assimilation to a hosting country's culture and traditions. These three gentlemen seem like good dudes but discrimination exists EVERYWHERE. Stop cherry picking and you will see IT less.

This is such a ridiculous video. Especially the implication that other races are less biased than whites. Asian folks largely stick with Asian folks. Muslims often times only marry Muslims. Most black people in America admit to racial bias and there is a large amount of hate crime against white folks that is not charged that way because of their white skin. Almost everyone has cultural bias. As a matter of fact I would make the argument that white folks are more likely to date and marry outside their race and Christians too.

I work full time and make less than 50K, and my taxes are going to pay for this garbage?

This is always happens when muslim are less in population , they talk about secularism and when they becomes in majority they start to turn land into Islamic State . ??? . Beware from Islams .
