Being black in Canada.\nFirst person to speak. A mixed man in canada, who benefits from his Jewish mothers privilege. Bye cbc.

Great documentary! Thank you, CBC.

Well done Asha. Very informative documentary. I know Blacks live throughout Canada but I never knew some of the history talked about in this video. You presented the information very well. Enjoyed watching you and the CBC reporters.

why does CBC only allow comments on videos which they believe they will get support on?

This upsets me a great deal! My father was a vet, who served , And Trudeau says no money is avaiable, My dad he died ok, and you can give money to a refugee,and shaft my mother who is a widow. Shame on you ! Its true that the refugeess ,get a house,a car , etc, and yet low income Canadians who are on a waitlist get shafted for the low income housing.. We have homeless folks who suffer from Mental illness are seniors on the streets in Calgary alberta,and are waiting for a place to live . In regards to jobs , Canadian employers will hire the refugee over a Canadian because he or she will play the RACE CARD. . CBC wake up! This is the reality of what is happening !.. Folks next election vote TRUDEAU OUT!

Islam is a religion, not a race... just to educate CBC and anyone else who thinks that.

Nothing CBC says is believable. They lie, contradict and omit information at will. Its time to think about demanding accuracy or getting rid of this national waste of money. What is the point of having news, if it is mostly one sided and bull?

CBC is propaganda, the most biased news organization in Canada.

I turn CBC off when I see only black

I don’t watch CBC

CBC is bias all liberal Everyone should read what Australian Prime Minister has to say They can always make a choice to leave.Need to appreciate Canada This seems as a Race Baiting Channel

CBC news you the best

I'm white and I often feel like I am being followed in stores, doesn't mean that I'm being targeted, doesn't even mean that they are following me. How about the CBC spend some of my tax money on doing a report on how anglo white men are being discriminated against in Quebec, and how affirmative action is actually discrimination.

The racists all work for the CBC .

I CAN TELL U THIS VIDEO IS A FABRICATION OF WHAT REALLY GOES ON CANADIANS HAVE HUGE HEARTS AND HAVE OPENED THERE BOARDERS TO PEOPLE AND FOR CBC TO PUSH THE HATE WHITE PPL NARRATIVE IF SUCH A FABRICATION AND A PROPAGANDA TOOL IM TAKING ACTION

cbc i can't believe how ur promoting this I'm going to take action against this this is so wrong

i wish the government would stop confiscating my money to pay for all this crap - even like CBC

CBC management should take that racial bias test. I can already see the results.

ok so how rich is CBC? xD

CBC I'm going to tell you straight up your bullshiieet . And the Vietnamese in the eighties are not the migrants is today

lol - this is what happens when CBC leaves the safe confines of their web site where they can limit comments to the wild west of YouTube where they are called on their B*llSh*t

Smoke and mirrors from CBC

Something that stuck out to me was that $1350 and $1360 in several common fonts will look similar, especially on a quick glance and in smaller sizes. It is entirely possible that the guy misread the number. I think it's telling that CBC decided it was subtle racism rather than giving the guy the benefit of the doubt. I know there's a lot of bad behavior documented here but that behavior isn't any better.

I am an American and I love the CBC!

From CBC Marketplace to What Would You Do? lol

Thank you CBC for not beeping out expletives. The beeping is very annoying.

Good Job CBC....:)

CBC is propaganda force fed to the Canadian public paid for by Canadian tax dollars which half of the people do not even agree with there wages paying for.

CBC is Canadian Tax Dollars wasted on biased one sided propaganda.

Why are we paying for this crap, sell the CBC, over 1 billion dollars a year for what ? Government propaganda, that money would be alot better spent on our Armed Forces.

In Victoria you had to pull teeth to get evidence of racism, and you base your proof on a $10 difference in a rent rate given by two different sales people?? Ha ha ha! Hilarious!! You guys are pathetic. It must be tough to keep your job at CBC.

CBC is a regressive disgrace.

just watched the national on the cbc and an muslim guest said that canadians are accepting, tolerant, kind, etc --- I ask why are muslims not? they do not seem to tolerate becoming canadian - accepting our customs and when confronted some of them are really agressive (but that's just my experience) ... and then there's MO, a good friend of mine (his name is mohammed but prefers Mo - he says it causes less problems in these times) why are immigrates against integrating into our customs - it seems to me our customs are pretty good. we don't believe gays should be thrown off buildings - we don't believe someone who steals should have a hand chopped off, we do not believe that an atheist should be decapitated. If you have a choice it seems you should choose to integrate. now you'll say my view is simplistic - but we complicate things too much - progess is mans ability to complicate simplicity (someone smart once said this)

People just don't get it Muslims hate everyone who is not a Muslim there is no peace with these people, Canada wake up they will pass laws to stop u from saying anything against Islam ????? what ???? ya that's right they are trying to pass a law for this and as we sit on our hands it will get passed...Liberals and CBC are a bunch of Fakenews!!!!!!!! ruining our country Liberals do not care about the white people and our way of life they just want to stay in power.......Finally i'm not sure if anyone in Canada is watching the rest of the world but Immigration of Muslims just destroys countries turns them into civil wars......now the back lash of this post will be i'm racist but i'm white and proud of it i love Canada the way it is and whats wrong with this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought canada was supposed to be better than America. I guess not judging by the trolls in the comments that seems to hate cbc but watch and comment on all their videos.

CBC and CTV and all Canadian media will regret all this since it's historically proven religion which has trouble getting along with other religion of the world.Do not support one religion over the other. Religion should be kept to your houses not something to display out in public.

Edited much? CBC is looking for non-existent problems.

why is it onesided against caucasian people/store employees/property managers? \nthats cbc for you.

Lets make one about cbc, called is cbc race baiting

THIS MAKES ME DISGUSTED TO LIVE HERE & BE A CANADIAN CBC\nWe're all decedents from other countries Except for OUR NATIVES \nHastags GO \n#COLOUREDLOVE #CRIMEskinsHUMANITY #MAKEITnotAWKWARD #PEACEisALLweNEED

This is just more evidence telling me diversity is not a strength. All it creates is division, social tensions, and problems. Thanks CBC.

I actually loved CBC Marketplace, but, as always you just have to bring race into it. Very sad. Why does everything in this world have to revolve around race, if you rob a store and get caught, it's only because your black now adays, not because you robbed the store.

Maybe #CBC can look at the black communities/history outside of Ontario, like Quebec and Greater Montreal where blacks are the largest minority.

Great documentary CBC. From an African American from Philadelphia.

CBC trying so hard to make white people look bad... Race bait

Thanks CBC for allowing Asha Tomlinson to work on this video. This is for all Canadians, but most for Black Canadians in Eastern Canada. Cities like Edmonton in particular should be highlighted in this type of videos for their stand on racism. Most cities in Canada are becoming more progressive on racial issues, but Edmonton remains a frightening place for Black people. My message to Blacks in Western Canada is that nothing will change without a challenge. We must stop gossiping about how we are treated and let expose this disease.

The CBC has been discriminating against whites with 'no whites' for job ads yet they have the gull to talk about racism?

I have a rich multimillionaire Indian guy who owes me $650 for work I've done for his business, will CBC cover my story? or he'll get a pass cause he's brown and I'm white?

CBC is pure evil, and politically (in)correct CULTure is the scourge.

So even CBC think religion has something to do with race ...
