To me all racism could be stopped. It starts in the home. Love one another. Communicate, when you do most always you have common interests . Then something great happens....

Anyway I could get followed around the store by an associate if you're walking around with no car and a coffee cup in your hand and not shopping just strolling around the store suspiciously

Targeting because of skin colour is wrong of course.\n I am not offended when asked to open my bags before I leave a store. But being white, I don't experience racism so I guess my perspective is different. I could see that being a slipery slope though, when one has to prove everything in a bag was purchased elsewhere.\n I enter stores sometimes with two bike paniers full of gear for the changing weather. \nIf there was a safe place to secure bags at the entrance, I wouldn't be offended to leave it there.But stores wouldn't want that cause that cost money. Instead we criminalize people, particularly people of colour.

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.

I wanted to take the test so I could know if I need to learn more about myself and my potential of being a detriment toward equality of races....the video gives link to the text but does not work. I figure the best place to start is within myself.

For the shopping experience, they have the guys go in carrying hand bags. That's going to get their attention since shoplifters could easily put things into the bags and most people don't bring computer bags, hand bags etc when they shop.\n\nI've had instances where people were awful to me for no apparent reason (I'm white), and it struck me that if i was black, I would attribute the terrible treatment to racism since I couldn't think of any other reason for the bad treatment. \n\nAnother form of racism not covered here is the racism of low expectations. If people assume that you are too dumb to understand something or too poor to afford something, that's wrong. Same holds true for treating women as if they won't understand. Usually this behavior is done, not by bad people, but by people who just haven't had a lot of interactions with different people of different races. So they haven't had the chance to have those stereotypes personally disproven.

yeah, keep eraseing comments that are politically incorrect but could help normalize situation.\n\nBTW. If nikab (veil) was ban in Canada in 2010, what is this video uploaded 5years ago even about?

this is all interesting ,,but to be fair ,,,, its all up to  who wrote the test ,,and is there even a right answer to these questions ,,, in other words a test is only as good as the person that wrote it  ,,, on something as tender as this subject ,, it could be that all the answers are wrong ,,, its all in the way you view life and the people you meet ,,, my life is simple ,,, ill treat you the way you treat me ,,, and I never see color ... color is nothing more then a shade of life ,,, no matter who is in your company , if your enjoying it,, that's a keeper ... and never bend to pier pressure ,,, nothing good ever comes from it ,, be your self and see people the way they show them self to you

Ive actually living in America applied for a job in Cooperate American. I applied with real name education and work history. I was VERY qualified if not Overqualified...i applied using a different variation of my name amd using my mothers maiden name, and got the job after interviewing with a different supervisor. Once i showed my ID for tax papers etc. I was called into the office on my orientation day amd was told that i wasnt hired using my real name and could not continue employment. Well i wasnt silent. I sued and received a settlement. Racism is everywhere even in a name

If blacks would try harder they could be just as well off as whites. This is a true statement.

I couldn't imagine getting paid the very least that a company can legally pay you, and then caring at all if someone steals from the business. They would pay you a dollar per hour if they could, why should you put in any more than the absolute minimum amount of effort not to fired?

Hiii. So I plan on moving to Canada in maybe 3-4 years or so after I finish highschool? I’m black and I live in America, and I was wondering if there’s police brutality and racism towards blacks in Canada? The thought of being targeted because of my race terrifies me, and I don’t want to be around this. Also I don’t want to get into any trouble with anyone, considering the fact that I’ll be a woman, alone, but would my race or gender play a big part in my safety? If anyone could help me out, that’d be great. Thank you! <3

I am very familiar with the “name discrimination “; although I am white and very European-having been born and Educated in Eastern Europe-I have had resumees ignored, or dismissed despite my qualifications, simply because the HR person could not read (or spell) anything beyond one or two syllables! Alot of the women fruends

I don’t like some of the set ups here. Leland was watched pretty heavily in the Regina Shoppers Drug Mart. But he’s wearing a backpack over one shoulder and shopping with a reusable bag too. That is a very common theft opportunity there as products placed in reusable bags appear to be bought when proceeding through cash registers. Also side bags and half strapped on back packs are very common concealing equipment for theft. It is very common for security and staff to watch people exhibiting those signs. In fact they are trained to do exactly that. Also, he was frequenting areas with high theft products like baby formula. It’s not unreasonable to follow that kind of behaviour. Sure there could be some racial bias at play but I would follow anyone regardless of race given the same body language and equipment I observed with Leeland. A very leading story, to be sure.

oh my god.....how people could think of doing such things

you guys should also try going to the Philippines or any other Asian country and being white.. try and get a cab.. they will all ask you if you need a ride.. but you pay tons more than the locals would.. it works both ways and it's just normal... get over it... I rode in Planes staffed by people from China and they could tell I was from Texas.. Got treated very different.... some good and some bad depending on the flight attendant's views on The USA

This is more typical CBC yellow journalism. As an English speaking white person, I could easily provide the CBC with hidden camera evidence of white people being discriminated and bullied by indigenous and french Canadian people because of my race and language, but of course, the CBC wouldn't be interested. LOL

I don’t know why stup!d people are paying millions of dollars to get the citizenship and then they'd never be able to earn the same amount of the money they spent getting the immigration. They could start up a respectable business in China or other Asian countries and enjoy the sunshine and family values.

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.

The white guy they used in these test is a lot more socialable looking than I am and I am sure I would get the same treated I am even being white.\nI also worked for best buy and was told to ask people if there was something I could help them with if they look suspicious and standing in one place by a shelf is just one of those things. That is just common practice.

Yo Leland. I'm sorry man. I could feel how much love you have in your voice. You were so disappointed in us and pray that people see your blessings. Thank you to all Native, Metis and Inuit for your love patience with us.

In my own experience as a white business owner, I have found that it was the always the white males that I could not trust in my store I never had problems with guys that were visible minorities, so what does that tell you?

If someone doing such things why don't your governments throw them out of the country and take back the citizenship? WHY???? I DO NOT UNDERSTAND!!!!! I DON'T! Could anyone explain to me????

I went to save on foods the other day. they told me that I had to leave my bag at the front because it could contain germs. While I was shopping I saw several women with purses. Apparently women carrying purses don't spread germs but men with backbacks do. Sexism against men doesn't get much attention but its very real!

A question stands out in my mind. What is the percentages per capita of various races versus percentage of gang members, criminals, gun play, or involvement in drug subculture from the whole population? Probably not feasible to get accurate answers to these questions but could shed some light on peoples perceptions.

I am seeing many drew binsky videos these days . ( lock down effects) . It is making me feel that I am getting connected to the whole world knowing about each country. It's actually great that the videos are unbiased. I felt bad when he told he escaped accident in India .but even after that , he visited our country , he could appreciate the diverse beauty of India.

Cool video! You should have mentioned the acknowledgement Canada does for its First Nations people vs what the US does to its own Native American people just a factor that could help

hey Drew, of course after this virus blows over, I would love it if you went on a cruise to Antarctica. then you could truly say you've been everywhere

What is the disparity of shop lifters, could that be a reason?

Best cure for Corona virus (Elham-e-khair)\nToday we will confess our mistakes in front of our creator in a new way\nO supreme creature you honored your best creature with conscience so that we use knowledge for the benefit of humanity.\nResidented on stars and got relished from your countless blessings that you made for us.\nThrough medical discussions, we could have been super human by controlling our own bodies fully but we have gone into darkness of illiteracy. And have become stamp on humanity. Due to this an ordinary virus it is humiliating humanity.

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.

Ezra, where did you find Keean. He is simply amazing. The virus does not discriminate, Trudeau does not discriminate, his health plan is porous so what could possibly go wrong.

Canada I can't possibly be more grateful for you kind hearted humanitarian socialist to the north. If you could make the 60 to 70 per day 6 to 7 thousand per day we will be forever grateful.\nSincerly\nAmerica

The real joke is the people that live close enough to this place that could REALLY shut this place down by FORCE! When is commenting on videos gonna no longer be enough?!

It seems like the border is a very dangerous place to be, a sniper could be hiding anywhere in those wooded areas?

Could you explain how turdope looks after Canadians ?

I ❤ YOU guy's praying for you from Oregon USA ???? my home always OPEN to rebel news ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤WISH I could do MORE

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!

Maybe a dumb question but no well funded conservative wants to put money into this media? These guys could be the Fox News of Canada. Why is rebel Media not on tv!!

Hijab could be a dangerous safety issues, if you came to Canada follow western way, ban Hijab

Just go home! With all that money u lost!?u could have had a good life in your own country!??

One husband could have 4 spouses ?\nIs it true ?

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

Hello sir could you help me I'm interested thank you hope you read my commmets

This acclaimed and hugely influential test, though, has repeatedly fallen short of basic scientific standards.test proves nothing and could let people with bias off the hook and vice versa

so for the curious, the guy was asking someone off camera (his wife I assume) to hold his phone so he could move his car out of the way for the woman. that's what I got from it.\nwhich puts their personalities in quite stark contrast.

I dont believe this. I'd like proof that they showed the landlord the same income and job history. I believe they made the white guy look better on paper to make a point. If business owners are turning away renters that could make them income, they are just horrible businessmen. I've never been turned away from an apartment or anything else because of my color. I have money to pay, that's all landlords have ever cared about.

Racism is everywhere a lily white dude I knew was the biggest thief ever. He'd walk out of stores with whole grocery carts full of stuff, Right out the door. I never would give him a ride or anything. I knew what he would do, I didn't want no parts of it. Not looking to get locked up at all. It would baffle me that he could just walk out of any store and never get watched or stopped at all. But if he was black he would have been follow from entry to exit. SMH

I was followed a couple times in stores by people of all different races so I mean it could happen to anybody.
