Meanwhile as a black Haitian woman I can care less if someone does like me or following me inside the store. I’m good at ignoring people as long as they don’t put their hands on me, they can say whatever they want to say it’s their freedom of speech. At the end of the day they will feel like a moron not me. Ignore people and give them silent treatment it’s always best for me. As long as I love each and every race then I’m good.

To be honest, this whole video seems so biased. I couldn't watch it past the 10 minute mark.\n First of all, if the white guy had been the first to tell the manager that he was interested in the apartments, then of course that same manager is going to tell the 2nd person (asian guy) that the availability is limited. He already HAS a potential renter, why would he need more? The 1st guy already chose one of the apartments, so of course the Asian guy would have less options.\nSecondly, and I'm sorry to say this, but statistically there are more black shoplifting cases than with any other race. It's sad, but true. These retailers are just trying to protect their assets, and it's their right.\nThirdly, that lady was in the wrong, for one, because if a security person is asking to inspect your purse on THEIR retail grounds and you have nothing to hide, then why are you being uncooperative? That just makes you look worse.

Racism does exist everywhere.\nIn Canada, America, Germany, France, Hong Kong, etc. You can fill in every country.\nYou can make hundred times more documentations about it without any change.\nAnd you can't say people to have no racism and wonder why it does not work. The more you talk about the less it will work.

Have you seen the left? Anti white progressives. Less whites and more POCs that is the progressive motto. No one can hire a person because they are qualified, they have to hire because of skin color or sexual orientation.

The fine is less than the tax due. What kind of BS is this?

Psychology student here. In the interest of accurate information, I would like to point out some flaws I find with some of the studies in this documentary and question the conclusions reached. I understand that CBC Marketplace are not personality psychologists and therefore cannot be expected to produce the same quality of work as a scientist. However, I think it is worthwhile to think critically about the information in the media that we consume. I am also open to anyone who wants to engage in debating the contents of this documentary.\n\n\nThe following are some notes I took while watching the documentary outlining the individual hypotheses of the studies I think are flawed and descriptions of their respective accompanying errors. \n\n\nThere are three possible research questions, and thereby dependent variables, being answered by the apartment hunting studies.\n1. If there is no discrimination between the white man and the first-nations man, then they should get equal treatment, including quotes and availability, when apartment hunting. \na. Could the gender of the landlord be a confounding variable (perhaps men are more discriminatory than women)? \n \n2. If there is no discrimination between the white man and the first-nations man between Toronto, Montreal, Regina, and Victoria, then they should get equal treatment, including quotes and availability, when apartment hunting. \na. Could total apartments visited be a confounding variable? (4 in Toronto, 3 in Montreal, Regina, and Victoria) \nb. Could the gender of the landlord be a confounding variable (perhaps men are more discriminatory than women)? \nc. They only showed the black man apartment hunting in some of the trials. I am considering him out of the study for consistency purposes. The first-nations man is the only one who got unfair treatment in the footage of apartment hunting. \n \n3. Possible hypothesis: If male landlords/agents are more discriminatory than female landlords/agents, then the white man and the first-nations man will get different treatment at different Canadian apartments in equally diverse cities. \na. Don’t know all the information about the genders of the landlords/agents, not all the footage is shown, but the ones where they get ripped off are male. The others shown are female. The remaining interactions are not shown.\n\n\nThere are also some factors that may have influenced the racial bias survey and, in my estimation, rendered it scientifically unreliable.\n\n\n1. The bias survey and accompanying tests at the CBC attributed the differences between the studies to unconscious racism. What if it was just due to familiarity with certain racial groups over others? \na. The black participants had no bias between European-American and African Americans, supposedly indicating no racism, while the white and first-nations participants did, supposedly indicating racism. Is it possible that another interpretation of this result is that bias is a function of familiarity: that we are comfortable with the majority demographic in the geographical location we live in, as well as our own kind. Therefore, the black guys are less biased against black people due to being both black and living in a white majority demographic? \nb. The participants took the survey knowing the objectives of the researchers was to study racial discrimination. They might have influenced the answers they gave \nc. Whether the participants agreed with identity politics or not was a confounding factor that was not controlled . You can only be racially unbiased biased if you think that racial identity is a means of accurately viewing the world. People who do not believe in the existence of identity politics may answer the questions quite differently, which could be a different reason for the results.\nd. I took the study myself. The words that participants were required to match were a mix of adjectives and nouns. It is known within psychology that nouns have higher levels of imagery. This was not properly controlled and therefore is another confounding variable. \n \nAll the other studies looked fine to me. I welcome any discussion on my observations.

I am Latino, more or less capuccino skin (with extra milk), I can say that racial experiments here would be very interesting. I finnished university and have experience in my field. I've been looking for a job for a while, not much luck, I'm don't get called to interviews that much, I only get calls from agents that show me positions in company that I apply for but 90% of the time get rejected right away. \n\nI have white friends, one of them didn't study university. It hasn't been easy for him either, but he's pretty lazy, I know for a fact he didn't search much and got 7 interviews in 3 months while I hardly got called for 3 companies with the help of 5 agents. He got a job for which he needed training, I got rejected for that job and I do have experience in that field. I have to say it hurts. Funny thing, even he says it's suspicious because he couldn't answer many questions on the interview

“Can I help you with anything?” Yep your actually taught in training if you are involved helping the customers then less theft, but your supposed to genially engage with every customer not just harass ones who are other minorities.

There is no fine anymore . That was the individual mandate for the affordable care act. If you make less than about 48k in the us you can get your Health insurance subsidy. If you make like 35k your insurance will only be about 77$ a month.

To be fair the situation is difficult, having worked in retail before there is plenty of shoplifting on a daily basis so I can understand why staff are trained to use procedures to make shoplifting less likely, it does result in an unpleasant experience for customers if they are misprofiled and unfortunately people do misjudge or assume that certain types of people are more likely to steal. A lot of shoplifting is actually surprisingly done by old people, and its usually not intentional, sometimes they just simply forget to pay.

I wish the United States would face this issue. I've been attacked in a store for unfair, and unfounded suspension. I am treated differently in no less than 75% of stores I go into. The employees stare me down, follow me... I'm going to start filming these people. It's not fair to be harrassed for S.W.B. It's sad, I was born this color, yet I am less than, or just plain bad before I even speak, or act in the minds of many, especially law enforcement. It's sad. It's depressing. It makes everything in life that I do in public, down to using the bathroom, getting to know new people, applying for work, buying food, or just walking down any street, so much harder. Like the world is mad I exist, and the people want me to go away.

im a white person in the us n this is waaaay too common now and it makes me sick. in this day and age we are still treating minorities in a less than equal manner and thats disgusting

I worked at the gap and they train you to approach customers so that they know that they have been seen and it’s a less risk of property being stolen. But this guy was approached by 3 to 4 people and I know it’s not that slow.

I have less problems when people know I'm not white. I feel bad for white people. It must suck being white and passed over for your skin color.

Think Canada is so great \nWe are taxed to the nines and most people are less then a pay cheque away from going homeless and broke .\n\nWelcome to Canada !

On behalf of most Canadians, we sincerely apologize for her behaviour. We are actually nice people. Alberta is less diverse than Ontario, but our society is changing slowly. Canada belongs to aboriginal people. It’s not her country if she’s going to play that card. Cheers from Canada!

Canadians wake up.We Indians suffered a lot due to muslims invaders. Buddhism was totally wiped out and shifted to hill areas of Indian. If you get time read 4:5, 4:89, 33:50, 2:223, 4:34 of quran. Actually read the whole quran there is less good stuff and more violent.

I suggest going back too his country of origin and vote for politician's that will reform his government. It's crazy people from poorer countries keep electing socialist governments. While they inevitably must leave to Western countries. Mexico, Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina. They should all be 1st world countries. Go back and vote right. Not left. I wonder what would happen if all Canadians moved to Mexico and all Mexicans moved to Canada. Which country would be better off. It is not the land that defines a country, it is the people. Look in the mirror. Maybe a few less siesta's and more 10 hour work days?

Ur country is peaceful when muslims are less than 5%!

Ok not gonna lie. She probably got more money with hijab/none cause she is pretty. With the niqab covering her entire face she earns less. Humans are always superficial

As a white man I love the liberty of sleeping with women from all over the world. I notice many white women´s basic needs are not met which is the reason they go on these verbal rampages all the time. I support white women go out of their comfort zone and explore new relationships with other races to be less racist. Thumbs up if you agree.

you should try to test racism at schools. white people get higher marks and less bullied than other racists

What a pile of propaganda. No other culture on earth goes in to work dressed as a priest. Or a witch. Or the Ku klux clan etc. This is not in the Quaran, it is a cultural practice made to enslave woman and keep servant. They teach in our universities it is fine to mate with a three year old and a camel. So do you think this silly mask would help slow down interest? . Since no one else can at work wear such things then they cannot either. Like harper said do on your own time and place. They are no more important than anyone else. Could care less what they choose to wear, that is the point they should not have the right to enforce their rules in government places. Nor pray in schools or work or any place. Simply the same rules for all. Your employer does not allow you to come in dressed as the black panthers. Or like this or that. They may have particular dress codes. Enough of cater to them they removed this right in Denmark and now all get along much better due to they are not wearing it to work or on streets to annoy people

the united states has an enormous surplus of motels and hotels. most of them are less than 20 percent occupied most of the time.

Problem with whites everywhere is that they don't want to have children. They have a lot of money and time but they want to use their money for enjoyment and their time for tourism. When they see a Muslim woman with 5 children they become indignant and claim the Muslims are taking over Europe. The dilemna is that the whites are worried about the future of Europe and America but they flood their countries, willingly, with women whom they bring from Thailand and all over Asia. White men marry more and more coloured women from Asia and Africa and less and less women from their race. So if white population is shrinking in the world it is because of their arrogance and irrationality .

Nayagmalig: You are going off in a tangent. This clip has got nothing to do with your Attack on Islam. You need to understand the point you have made is in War.. Not in civil code. I feel that you should do more research into both areas before jumping on a bandwagon and waffling on a tangent. Just look at what the west is doing today in majority of Muslim countries. Go read upon the daily atrocities the west is doing. Then come back to me with less of this hypocritical comments which holds no water.

many scams happened like ex USSR citizens pretending to be of Jewish decent that went to Israel applied here under the economic refugee aspect lol 100000+ made it before the loop was closed I was told by people in the industry in the nineties and then Filipino nanny scam do 2 years apply within work for less to get past 24 months bring the entire family while educated Filipinos do not get the chance so middle agents brought thousands under the temporary worker umbrella and milked thousands of people

Sikh people are hard by toung but soft by heart.\nIn India Sikhs are very less than Muslim population but they always stand with Muslims in critical situations...\nJo bole so nihal!!!!

During British rule in India, they have taught us to fight with each other on the basis of religion and divided our country, thanks to god atleast we had large piece of land and we have survived anyhow,, Now it's your(Britain) turn....total area of Britain is less then avg. Area of our single Indian state. Let's see, which religion will have large piece of cake, keep clam and enjoy the show...

Love for this brother and nothing less.

As a muslim , born and grown in Trinidad,, we dont have much shik here ,, maybe less than 50.. but i so respect these people humbleness. Hope all goes well for you in your quest for helping canada become a better place .. luck good.

Living in a cocoon.\nClue-less of who *IS or ISN'T Muslim.*\n*P A T H E T I C !!!*

Bro i passed 12 th in 2018 Nd in ielts 6.5 not less than 6 can I get Canadian visa

Pure B/S ,the crime rates are up and i get a lot less than a refugee or new immigrant. More cbc propaganda.

In the US they force companies to hire minorities. In many cases the minority is less qualified but gets the job PLUS they know a company must have a minority and don't try as hard to make the owners/company a profit. To hire them you need to follow a lengthy process and then of course hire another minority that to often turns out to be the same problem all over again. And of course should they be black beware of the NAACP lawsuits.

Instead of spending money on a car that she likely can't afford, she should trade it in for a gym membership and meal plans. Maybe fix herself up a bit, get her hair done. Some self care would do her good and make her feel less miserable about herself and that way she won't have to take it out on others. I truly don't understand how people can let themselves go so much! Have some self respect and self worth!

To keep citizens a priority over the influx of immigrants and refugees Denmark had cut welfare benefits to illegal immigrants and refugees and many began leaving to more profitable countries (in benefits). Why has our country not put something like that in place? It definitely would sort out those who came for the 'freebies'.  ~ Denmark's ‘integration benefit'  measure was a significantly lower benefit level being offered to people who have resided in Denmark for less than seven of the past eight years. Foreigners will also receive a financial incentive to learn the language. These were 'integration benefits'. Citizens who have lived outside of the EU (or country?) for seven of the past eight years were also subjected to the new rules. The purpose, to make Denmark a less attractive destination while making it more attractive to work and contribute to Danish society.  It reduced the flow in to a more manageable number.

Health is wealth. No doubt to run the life, money is needed. If u earn less in India, it is better than to earn more money in abroad on the risk of ur health, life. It is my suggestion. Rest u r mature to decide.

The white guy always went first, that's probably the only reason why he got better treatment.\nThe property managers were more exhausted after dealing with the white guy, so they had less time, energy and patience to deal with the black and native guys.\nAlso supply and demand, if you already have one or two guys interested in the place, it increases the value, and price of the place for the next guys.\n\nAs for surveilling people in stores, blacks and natives probably walk around with less confidence and security, because they're subconsciously expecting whites to follow them, and whites subconsciously pick up on their lack of confidence and insecurity and follow them, that's probably the only reason they get followed, or asked questions.

If one race is statistically more likely not to pay rent, and are denied housing less than that percentage, that would be the opposite of discrimination.

Asian racists are going to be a lot more of a problem than white racists. Asians could not care less what you think about them and are not capable of being guilted like spineless whites. I am a lot more concerned, as a brown person, about Asian discrimination which will become increasingly more powerful as there are more and more in charge of the community.

Trudeau only cares for immigrants and refugeed because he wants their votes. These, immigrants come to Canada, have at least 4 kids and counting. Get free welfare, free, housing before our own(which is proven as they get 1st choice before our own)..😡and, child support.My parents worked hard their whole lives and are now on pension...WORKED FOR IT...and their income is way less than what these immigrants will get having all these kids.Its very upsetting that all these refugees and immigrants are coming in and getting more assistance than our own hard working their whole lives, people!!!!!!😡 they screw up their own countries, with wars, violence etc... want to come here and slowly start to screw up ours with their beliefs and laws and demands.Not having it..FIX YOUR OWN COUNTRIES PROBLEMS, THE WAY THIS IS GOING IN THE NEXT 50 YRS YOU WONT SEE ANY THING BUT BROWN AND BLACKS FROM AFRICA, SYRIA ETC..THEY HAVE 10 KIDS TO OUR 1-2 RATIO..🙄

I learn English in less than 3 years??is not hard people

Refugee claim denied because it is a fraudulent claim! Wasted your money? How about you enter through the correct ports of entry, using the correct legal avenues? Your time and money spent, would have been much less and you would have been granted citizenship. But, nope. Illegally enter one country. Circumvent laws. When that doesn't work. Do the same thing in another country. They cry foul. Got it.

What does this Migrant MP know about what I endured over my lifetime of paying Government Taxes.. ?? Tell me in TWENTY WORDS OR LESS.. ?? Anyone who SERVES CANADA by being VOTED into Government OFFICE should NOT be Paid by Serving OFFICE..

Bete ap ka information material Kam tha ues less yada however keep it up

Canada America Are two Fraud Countries. Too many Rules Less Festivals Fraud Country. On Media they shows sex but actually Prostitution is illegal in Canada America.

That covering does define you!!! Islam does make you less!!! You are a second class citizen to all Muslims!!!

It is so funny, Chines claims that China is no less powerful than Western countries but will try to immigrate to these countries by hook or crook. If your country is so powerful and great then why don't stay back ?

There is nothing wrong with a preference to your own kind.\nTo suggest otherwise, on a dare no less, very much is, provocative.\nWe have too many unqualified people filling positions because of\n“affirmative action” which hurts everyone.\nWhen too many people of a certain kind move into a neighborhood \ncrime goes up and good people move out.\nThis is why the prisons are disproportionately full of certain kinds.\nIf you believe I am a hateful bigot for telling the truth,\nyou are likely of that certain kind of people.\nThe real hateful bigot.\nDon’t blame good people for your own shortcomings.\nGodspeed.
