Saying that African intelligence is below 70% is discriminatory and offensive. What standard or yardstick are you using to measure the intelligence of African men and women? Intelligence is not determined by race, and such claims are rooted in prejudice, not facts. This kind of comment is unacceptable and deeply disrespectful.

It’s not just a problem unique to Canada. The situation in Japan is the same. Their sense of superiority and entitlement is unbelievably arrogant. They stay in our country illegally, work without authorization, throw trash on the streets, and aggressively and inappropriately approach underage girls in school uniforms. More and more cafes and shops in our country are refusing to accept Indians. They accuse us of racism, but we don’t care. Indians really make our society tired and are creating prejudice themselves.

I'm white and obviously it's not all Indians, but the only demographic I've experienced racism and prejudice from are Indians. I try to remember to keep an open mind as generalizing is wrong, but it's getting harder and harder especially since majority of staff in jobs I worked recently are prejudiced and stick to their own ranks. Good journalism M8 I can't believe you put yourself in that situation at the end

Prejudice

Tyler is #1 prejudice SOB

Stay here in Canada and get ready to repel American invasion with extreme prejudice. This pundit is being too "nice".

This is a nativist and a white nationalist perspective hrowing pushing Bigotry racism and prejudice of the others person.

Many very hardworking Indian immigrants willing to do difficult work. That is a virtue. I don't see why people are so resentful. Just because things changed too fast and it's scary for them. Very childish response with limited understanding. This kind of ignorance leads to prejudice.

I am First Nations and I have been concerned about how the face and language of Canada has changed. The first thing we noticed in our small town was that the taxi companies were taken over by East Indians. Now days you are hard pressed to get a taxi anywhere in Canada and get a driver who hails from India. I used to like Tim Horton's until I needed an interpreter to make my order, one doesn't speak English so, she had to get another worker to take my order. You go into any 7/11 or any gas station, or convenience store. All are staffed by people from India. But, it isn't just Indians. There are many other immigrants coming to Canada from China, Japan etc. None of these immigrants do not speak very good English. I have faced prejudice from these people who do not recognize my rights as an indigenous person. Going for an xray, blood test the field is mostly Asian. I have to get cataract surgery and I couldn't understand the Chinese receptionist and had to spell most of what I said to her. That means their business is mostly with Chinese-speaking people. As a First Nations person my status will always be a minority. With every immigrant that comes to Canada my status as an indigenous person diminishes. Taking transit shows me that english or french are ever spoken. Canadians are the new minority.

Wow, the makers of this video went after the most prejudiced people, racist and uninformed who spew falsehood and prejudice. It would be nice if they educated themselves. Canadian cities are not dying, investment and services everywhere. This video is sad, and so anti-Canada.

Remember the British stole $44 Trillion from Indians during colonial era. India controlled over a quarter of the world trade before they arrived. India was a bigger economy than US adjusting for inflation. The Industrial revolution was built on back of Indian slaves paying 70 percent taxes to the crown. Canada, UK and Australia were built on this stolen money. They stole money from the Indians and they stole land from the indigenous. This video shows nothing but prejudice. People only have a problem with brown immigrants. I remember 35,000 European immigrants arrived in the city in 2021 even before the Ukraine war and no one cared. Brampton has 27% Indian people so they're clearly not a majority but they are a majorly targeted group because of this prejudice. I don't have the Canadian numbers but in the US 6% of tax comes from Indians and they're 1% of the population. You don't have to trust me you can look it up. The motives of this look racist because when you try hiring white folks the retention rate is extremely low, these past 6 months I have seen 8 employees in managerial positions who quit less than 2 weeks and it's impossible to retain them no matter what salary you offer and then when you go hire an Indian they just don't quit and work harder. But again that's an anecdote, that doesn't mean white folks don't work hard. Everyone has different experiences so stop, putting half baked stuff out on the internet and stop embarrassing yourself. You got a problem, go back to your country. Why don't you go back to jolly old England and serve the queen.

Humans, like any other animals, have survival instincts. Seeing a threat, would make me scared of all related things as a threat. Our prejudices develop and little few percentage in any community can make us hate the whole community. The gentleman in first half of the video mentioned “They sell among themselves and they live among themselves “, could’ve most probably come from his personal experience which might not have been the best and influenced from the dirty politics. 2nd part of the video shows two gentlemen saying “everyone is welcome”. Maybe it’s high time to break that instinct survival barrier and see if all are welcomed for the free food, belongingness and if they’re paying taxes. Also, not being unaware of the criminals that are there in every community of every society. Should they be the ones holding power to our narrative? Thank you for doing this video and showing both sides! Hope this brings more peace and prosperity in the society and within ourselves.

They didn't put you at gunpoint to leave brampton, you just didnt want to live near them... The fact is you don't like their presence because they are from a poor country. Classic prejudice.

I lost him at.. 3:10 "New canadians pay no taxes" This is how the far right kills a dog by labeling it a mad dog. Either these people are so brainwashed or making up lies to have their way. They don't deliberately sell among themselves, the newcomers gravitate to areas where there are people of their own ethnicities. Cultural enclaves existed for centuries. Commercial-broadway area in Vancouver is full of Italians and greeks, Richmond and Burnaby are asians mostly chinese, some pockets in Toronto downtown have heavy middle eastern and african presence. You are selectively targeting the Indians because of your inherent prejudice. Also Assimilation is a 2 way street. There are so many people who are trying to make friends with other cultures especially white but they say they don't show as much love and openness as we do. You can't say "they don't assimilate" when you yourself don't allow them near you.

100% We are choking on muslims and indians and they are in the process of taking our country and getting rid of us. The bigger problem is that the government, police, judiciary, media, hospitals, school boards and schools all agree with them and are ready to toss us out with EXTREME PREJUDICE !!!!!!!!!!!! We really really MUST stop this immediately or CANADA, our beloved ancester built CANADA is gone. WE ARE A JUDEO/CHRISTIAN NATION, not Islamic ever ever ever. They are of their father, the devil and there is no truth in either of them. May God and Jesus Christ be with us to bless, protect, guide and forgive us. AMEN

Brown people living in Western countries, never let your guard down. Never let yourself be lulled by the comfortable thought that just because you learnt english, got a PhD , worked an honest job , kept a friendly demeanour, people would automatically be nice to you. The world is full of unhappy people who would pounce at the opportunity to pull you down and the easiest way to do this is to attack your skin colour, your accent and your job. \n\nJust keep in mind that if you've been honest to yourself,you don't owe anything to anyone: not respect, not deference, not allegiance. Learn to give it right back. Learn to fight the prejudice in it's own terms. Be prepared for the consequences. And most importantly, never look at your motherland as a last resort. Leave your country for life in a foreign land with a goal to return.

I almost completely support everything he says. My problem comes with his comments on Fentanyl. Please, this medication is a game changer for so many suffering daily in agony with chronic pain or deadly conditions. For those who need it medically, it is strictly controlled and monitored. Fentanyl is “eaten” by pain, so for those who need it there is no high, just relief.\nThose on it legally already have to deal with a great amount of prejudice, being treated as addicts and dealers when they are just trying to find a way to survive immense pain everyday. This medication allows them to get out of bed, to attend school or work, to have a life. It gives them hope and relief. \nThe opioid crisis is real, but those on a prescription are not the cause. Canada already has some of the strictest protocols in the world for this medication, leaving many people in agony as they loose access to it. \nDon’t take away something that is saving them. The drug is not wrong, those selling it illegally are in the wrong.

Democracy breeds tyranny when you have an electorate that is blinded by their biases, prejudices and opinions and absence of facts.

????I couldn’t resist answering this. , married an American , moved and lived there for 9 years, ran for the border with wings on my feet , appalled at the guns. , school shootings and everyone packing a gun,, , prejudice against anyone of colour ,,lack off decent healthcare, so uneducated about the rest of the world , , and thinking they were better than any other country. ,, how wrong they are ,, why we NEVER WANT TO BE A 51 st STATE,, SO PERISH THE THOUGHT AMERICANS…WE LOVE OUR COUNTRY , NOT PRFECT BUT,,,,,BETTER THAN THE USA. ,,,THE TRUTH ??????❤️❤️❤️❤️?

Thank you for your servive Commander Emily Shilling! The Supreme Court already ruled that rolling back transgender rights is akin to gender and sexual discrimination. Any one praising Trump for his atrocious actions does not understand the implications of his intention to roll back everyones civil rights. He wont stop with the transgender community. Any cisgender woman threatened by trans gender women has PTSD, Im talking to you Nancy Mace. Get some help. The hate needs to stop. We need an inclusive military and trans people are the latest group to hit the glass ceiling. Women in the 90s and black folks in the 40s had to overcome prejudice from within the armed services but have proven our military is more dynamic and innovative when we have diversity in leadership. ACLU is challenging these transphobic executive orders in court if you feel inclined to support them. We must fight against hatefulness and ignorance on every front including this one.

Don’t even try to come to America illegally now. The days of walking into the country and demanding asylum are over. There will no more games and nobody will be released into our country. They will be deported immediately and without prejudice.

Lets keep i real. The desire that most immigrants have is homeostasis which is the familiar. All humans do this. Individually indians are usually smart and decent people. But in groups ( and this doesnt just include indians) you get this group thinking that is prejudice against anyone who isnt one of their own. Im fairly certain its a good demonstration of what a different culture would experience in their own country. This is especially noticeable in markem with the Chinese population. \n\nLet me say this loud and clear. We didnt let you come here so you could start your own countries inside of our country. And beleive me, your gunna get rocked and put in your place if you guys keep coming here and being disrespectful. That goes for the any culture who is putting themselves first at the expense of other Canadians, and im not talking about white canadians im talking about all Canadians from anywhere. We re all equal and you will not be allowed to position your selves in a way that gives you immunity to these values. \n\nIm getting really tired of going into business like tim hortons and knowing what the nationality of the owner is by just looking around at the staff who work in fhe business. We let you have a seat at our table to break bread with us in a mutually benifital relationship. But what is pretty evident is that a lot of these people dont like us and if it was up to them we wouldnt exist. They fail to behave in a way that acknowledges the truth. That the family whos heritage is of this land, built this house that your living in. With our low corruption goverments , our clean drinking water, our free health care and education system, with our opportunities that make it possible through merit and hard work that it doesnt matter what family or where you were born. These are attractive features of canada that play a role in why people want to come here. And leave where they were. Its it logical to think that you have more to learn about us then we do of you? Not being on some selfish punk shit is canadas greatest strength. Its that same inclusives mentality that keep the government corruption very small which empowers the citizens to make them successful and able to contribute more back into this system. The very nature of hoarding resources for ones family, same culture, etc are the same oppressive situations many of these people left their countries to seek better opportunities. But once given those opportunities and a chance to decide for themselves, a lot of these people use their liberties to create exclusion and hostility toward out groups. The indians do this in a very overt in your face way, the chinese are more polite about it but both have this way of looking out for their own and not being concerned with anyone else. As far as im conerned you should all be split up and dispersered to live in different provinces and cites. I know this isnt realitic but it would save them from what a lot of them are gunna end up be exposed to which is experiences with native born Canadians who are going to very rudly show you what happens when you disrespectf someone in their own home. \n\nThe party is over. You people need to start being Canadian and care about Canadians like you care about your own culture or get the fuck out!

I almost moved to the US with my parents when I was a kid but was crying because I didn’t want to go. I am so glad that we didn’t move there. We don’t want to go there for many reasons, free healthcare, a good education system because we pay our teachers well and have good quality teachers, we don’t carry guns and don’t want them, thereby our streets are safer. We don’t have mass murders, school killings and all that fear. We don’t have the racial and ethnic prejudice that there is in the US. I have travelled a lot for my company and personal to the US. I was scared and didn’t feel comfortable at all. We know so much more about US geography and history and the US knows nothing about us. Complete ignorance. Well I have no plans to ever visit again. I love our people, our freedom and our culture. We are nothing like the Americans (sorry). I am staying in my beautiful country! I feel safe and happy here! We don’t want the American dream, we are living the Canadian dream!

Good send them back too, as prejudice as they are against black Americans! They’re worse than the yt man.

We are not prejudice. ALL illegals must leave. Please dont ever let the Democrats do this to America ever again.

its time to stop this with extreme prejudice

Many hedged their bets that President Trump didn't have the stomach or the support from US. They were wrong and now get to liquidate their assets, pack their crap, and self-deport. If they keep clutching their pearls ICE will show up and extricate them with prejudice and the clothes they have on. The vacation is over

Trumps whole thing is who can he discriminate against that many people are still prejudice against too. Trans people weren’t doing a thing to anyone in military. He just wanted to be cruel.

Anyone who serves for this country military should be honored. Americans, please stop ? focusing on peoples genders and more on their skills!!!! This politics is about your own insecurity and prejudices.

To be so prejudice is wrong! Qualifying for positions should be based on skills and abilities not bringing genders into mix. Transgenders are part of our everyday lives and are capable of holding positions of importance as long as their preference of sex does not interfere with the job or tasks at hand. I agree that women should not have to compete against transgender women but this is going too far! Everyone has a right to represent their Country if they choose too as long as they are capable and skilled!

These kinds of acts cause prejudice against other races not all of the people of that race are like that but it does and thats not fair But our founding fathers fought for our rights To think they have any rights here and act like animals is ludacras to me.

Perhaps how India's treat's their own people with prejudices AKA the Untouchable. Now being treated differently don't feels good. How about that ?

This news is unfortunate but we cannot deny the fact that majority of Indians lack civic sense. The poor and the lower middle class who lack civic sense are not the problem. Sorry for the prejudice, but they rarely plan to travel abroad. The problem is with the middle class (and even rich) Indians who have the money to travel abroad but lack even basic civic sense.\n\nThis is very unfortunate, but I have seen this with my own eyes.

Regardless of many reasons for rejection, we as a country shouldn't turn blind eye to illegal methods to obtain visa or illegal immigration. We can't deny fact that racial prejudice is significant while giving visas.\nEnd of the day, its the sovereign country's right to let anyone into their country.

The Indians bring prejudices and corruption with them and this is the reason this happens.\nclean up your act and see changes.

In my workplace, I have had positive interactions with colleagues from diverse backgrounds, including Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and other Asian cultures. Regrettably, issues have arisen with some Indian coworkers due to their inclination to work solely with other Indians. My experiences with Pakistani and Bangladeshi colleagues have been particularly pleasant, as they have consistently demonstrated kindness. However, some Indian colleagues have displayed narcissistic tendencies and a lack of respect, prioritizing their own needs above others. This selfish behavior has created difficulties for Canadian colleagues, who find it challenging to work collaboratively with these individuals. Moreover, I have noticed that some Indian employees, upon securing a job, focus exclusively on hiring other Indians, leading to a lack of diversity in the workplace. This has raised concerns about racism, as some Indian individuals have exhibited prejudice towards black and white colleagues, often using derogatory language and pretending to work while failing to make meaningful contributions.

This is not true!!!…as an Italian Canadian ..i immigrated to Canada in the early 50s…we also suffered prejudice……it takes time to adjust to a new culture and to be accepted….theres no other country like Canada….our doors are open to everyone…being an immigrant is hard…no matter where you come from❤??

Trump... ! stop rasist ,prejudice, if you Don't all those nations going annoying all Americans all around the world...

Let them stay. Ill tell you that the Indian or south asian peoples are very ambitious and hard working and that is exactly who Canada should be welcoming. I was very prejudices a time ago but over time I have changed my stance on immigration and im very ashamed of myself. Let them stay.

Too much of them are here. And the Indians, are prejudice against black people. I'm here, more than fifty years in Canada...

Entrepreneurs are saying this can prejudice the business but It’s simple; just follow the example of other countries like Australia: give more seasonal visas, allow international students (including those taking English courses) to work part-time outside the school to support businesses, issue more work visas to people with NO police records and visa ID, again PEOPLE WITH IDENTIFICATION. Illegal immigrants are criminals, not immigrants.

First of all Canada and America are European colonization countries. Because of their sense of superiority they managed to genocide and wipe out the culture of the indigenous natives of that place and replace it with their own. To say Indians from India is taking away their culture is so strange....the recent media attacks about Indians experiencing racism in Canada and all Indians being unlawful in Canada has been orchestrated by Tredue and the racist Canadian government against India and Indians because of geopolitics. The west has always used media to make the whole world look down on India and many places that fought back against white supremacy. Everyone needs to correct themselves, not only Indians as the way the flaws of Indians has been exaggerated beyond words to condone their prejudice and spoilt rotten entitled behaviour.

maybe because it's not all it was cracked up to be? \nyaknow. misleading advertising. \nmaybe also prejudice, intolerance and racism.

As a Jamaican, I can care less if i get deported. I always faced prejudice anyway. My job is also racist against my people. They don't like Jamaicans in FL. \nI'll be leaving the country permantly.

This dude is not smart, he blind, mandate is mandate?. No, stupid, all big scale action has balance disruption of the system.. Of course, deport criminal is priority, they are prejudice to economy and well being of society. Take immigrants that work in farmer for example, and other fields that supply necessity to population. How farmers will deliver products if they dont have workers? How the business will survive? How will people that need good have them? Farmers will get nuts, nobody to harvest their products, who will do the job? Oh! Get all those brainless senators for work in sectors of emergency. IT will affect the common people that need basic goods. The business people will lose income because their products will perish before consumers can have them. They need hire other people that will impose different price in services, for high demand, cant enforce to pay. In some point they have fill up for bankrupt. Population will be lack of basic. Anybody of common sense, analyze all that effect. No one those senators are able to answers the questions she put for them. ( They just said stupid words, We won majority , people voted in us) but morons, you will make a mess, in months all medeo/small business owners would stand up) Just imagine that.

Some Latinos, Hispanics some Arabs, Mexicans that voted for White Conservative Donny Trump, did so because they know that in America, if you want to be in, you act like, think like, and vote like Conservative White Americans. The aforementioned groups are cognizant that White males control America, and Conservative, more prejudice, bigoted White males are the more successful of Caucasian. And the more light to white skinned of the aforementioned ethnic groups have a arrogant sense of privilege because of the color of their skin, they feel more white than the darker shades of their race. These passing-for-white ariodites love to converse with Conservative white citizens and make it clear to them that they agree with their grievances of ethnicity, race, religion and political ideology, even to the point of degradation of their own kind. They were told of the American Drean even before their people came to the United States, and the modern catch phrase of that dream is MAGA!

The only way for america to come out of this with any dignity and humanity is to offer the illegal aliens money to voluntarily leave for mexico..if they dont leave then arrest and deport with extreme prejudice!!.???

The Alien Enemies Act Has a Sordid Past \nThroughout this country’s history, the Act has been used to target people merely on the basis of their ancestry or nationality. The act was first used during the War of 1812 against British nationals, and later used by President Woodrow Wilson during World War I against nationals of the German Empire, Austria-Hungary, and other foreign nations. The last time this wartime authority was invoked, during World War II, lead to the incarceration of noncitizens of primarily Japanese descent – the precursor to the internment program targeting Japanese Americans – that marked one of the most shameful moments in American history. In 1988, when Congress apologized and provided reparations for Japanese internment, it acknowledged the application of the law lead to fundamental violations of the civil liberties and constitutional rights of individuals of Japanese ancestry, and that the government’s actions were motivated largely by “racial prejudice” and “a failure of political leadership.”

If its commonplace for any group of immigrants to be acting & behaving in certain ways back in their home country, then this is what they're bringing along when they immigrate to foreign countries! Whether its routinely doing business under-the-table to avoid paying taxes, ethnic & racial prejudices, mass illegal migration, public deification; etc. This is the true long-term conditioning of these people. It is what they really are. Besides, this is a global problem with these people; Canada is far from the only country.

The interviewer should have framed his question regarding terrorists coming into Canada and how it effects Canadians.. Instead he had to specify the Jewish community. I'm tierd of Canada being split into communities... We need to all be represented under one community and stop all this divisive grouping. If we are going to be a multicultural society that lives in harmony.. We need to get back to being Canadian first. Your ethnic religious and or race identity should not enter into politics as it relates to being Canadian! Our laws and rights are to be provided to everyone without prejudice.
