Racism in Canada

And yes, Japan is an extremely racist country. I went there with some of my negro friends, back in 2017, and it was heartbreaking to witness the racism my negro family had to tolerate that week.

And Africans are also extremely racist; among the most racist people on the planet, in fact.

Everyone else takes it for granted. You think the Muslims of Turkey cry over the fact they invaded, murdered and drove off all the Byzantine Christians who lived on that land for thousands of years?

The victims remember, though. Talk to Serbs, Kurds, Greeks, Armenians. That’s true of many empires. It’s not a mere detail of history for them. Same with the British Empire too.

Are Canadians racist? Not particularly. I believe every human being is tribal. There’s racism on my street but we cope with it, learn from it and move on. 

Hi Spanky, I was just wondering if you could elaborate on racism on your street?

Most of the victims are dead. The Muslims didn't take over Turkey in a gentle way as the British did Canada. They drove off or slaughtered those who refused to convert. The people you speak about are more recent victims, not those from long, long ago. And does anyone think Africans care about the tribes which used to live in their present lands and were exterminated or driven off? Not in the slightest. Do the Han care about what their ancestors did to the other residents of China? Nope. They don't even care what they're doing to minorities today.

The only people who are fixated about their ancestors' 'crimes' are English progressives.

Doubts you have seen that. Why exaggerate so much?

Can we assume from your continuous attempts at asserting the topic as insignificant, that you too see no reason to think that someone could be causing Canadians to express more racistic attitudes than they otherwise would?

Politics have to do with power.

Example: X wants to become an influential political figure, but can't stand Y who happens to be much more popular than X. In fact, X believes as long as Y is in politics X might never become all that influential because Y is giving the people all they want and X can't offer the same. Y is a real jerk - always speaking against racism and inequality, defending immigrants and wasting his time on all similar nonsense. X knows that some people in his country are racistic and knows that he needs all those on his side - however, those alone won't do; there are too few. So he starts spreading ideas that cause the racists to become more racistic and those who are not racist to become, at first at least, just a little bit racistic.

 

I am not exaggerating anything here. A federal draft report done in 2001 included an estimate of approx. 100,000 illegals residing in Canada. How many are there today? Maybe 200,000?  We do know that there has been tens of thousands of illegals coming into Canada every year, especially ever since pro immigration globalist comrade Trudeau told the whole wide world to come on in. No one really knows for sure as to how many illegals are here in Canada because no one really cares. From Jan. 2017 to March 2018 the RCMP intercepted 25,644 criminal illegals crossing into Canada illegally at Roxham Road in Quebec. And that is just at one location in Canada. How many have come into Canada since then at other locations in Canada that the police did not catch? I got this information by punching in illegal immigration into Canada. Will all this information work out well for you now? ;)

Eliminate the "shining city on a hill" BS and you end up with an empire that was largely built with slave labor on stolen land!

Historian- Gerald Horne, makes a good case that the primary reason for the 13 colonies' revolt against the British Crown was anger over laws stopping them from expanding their territories into Indian lands on the other side of the Mississippi River, and out of fears that laws abolishing slavery and the slave trade in the British Empire would lead to an end of slavery in America. And too many founding fathers, like Washington and Jefferson had enriched themselves from both!

Now, after those beginnings and a long history of formal slavery that morphed into unofficial slavery - "Jim Crow" laws that still persist today, why would you think that a nation which promotes racism would not be racist?

Why are there so many people like you who always want to keep bringing up slavery in America or who keep whining and crying about how Indians were treated centuries ago? The practice of slavery and the bad treatment against native Indians ended centuries ago. I want to forget the past but I cannot because of people like you and your constant let's keep racism alive and well by trying to make all white people out as and always will be a bunch of racists. When people like you keep bringing that up, it would appear to me as though you are the ones that are trying to promote hatred against white people yourself. 

Sure there is racism in Canada, and there always will be. There is racism all over the world, and racism will never end. But thanks to multiculturalism and massive 3rd world immigration and the forcing of so many different cultures together is probably going to create and become a big problem one day here in Canada. Canada is being set up for a cultural disaster as we see many different cultures coming to Canada today and are now living in their own tribal ghettos. Canada will soon become a divided country as those new cultures increase in numbers.

Asians and East Indians can pretty much carry on in Canada without assimilating into Canadian culture. They are being allowed to practice in Canada their own cultures as to how they lived from whence they came. I know that Asians do not like East Indians, nor do Chinese like Japanese or Korean people. Koreans and Japanese do not like Chinese people. Black people despise white people. Muslims despise everybody. Are you starting to get the picture yet? 

So quit with trying to make it appear as though there are crosses being burned everywhere in Canada today and white people are naturally all racists. Geez, some people's kids?  ;)

I am baffled how people in Canada and USA, or to say better the media always beats the drum of racism. I think at the end is all economics, it sells good to give people an excuse if their life is not going well. Instead of giving them motivation to succeed the press tends to just blame racism and that harms the individual.

As a legal immigrant from Eastern Europe I came in with speaking limited English, there were comments made in high school, of course they were, but I kept my head down and learnt the language, got a job and pay my taxes. 

The press, immigrants, academia, SJW don't understand one concept. A lot of immigrants don't want to adapt in their new country and of course is hard for them because an equal reaction will come from the society. Is physics, equal action = equal reaction. My dad forbid me to speak my language in my house, just English and that helped me a lot to be accepted by the society.

And regarding slavery, yes, it is probably one of the most disgusting things ever done by man to man however that still goes on in certain places of the Earth, like Africa. Maybe we should focus our energy there. In North America people can never move on to succeed if they focus on the pain of the past.

Unless your a communist that has no respect for local traditions, everyone else should understand that the racism issue is not that much an issue but a propaganda machine to make some money by dividing people. The average person in every group just wants better economic situation, help them achieve that by motivation not by giving them an excuse to not try anymore and just "blame racism".

In the Turkish/Ottoman example, I’m covering hundreds of years, and the same with the British occupation of Ireland. The descendants of the victims still remember what happened and it is not trivial.

Indeed, it is those bleeding heart, guilt ridden leftist liberal and socialist English progressives that keep all this racism crap going. They seem to enjoy always trying to stir up chit about racism happening everywhere in Canada. And of course our Canadian media just love to push that chit. The CBC is one of the worse ones for that. They are always on the lookout for some juicy non-racist story to try and make a big deal out of that nothing racist story. The CBC seems to despise all white people. Weird indeed. :unsure:

Society really needs some people to "fail" in life. If everyone got PhDs there would be no one to drive garbage trucks, clean schools, or even be electricians and plumbers. Not that any of those are bad jobs, there are plumbers worth millions of dollars, but our society needs some people to inhabit the lower and middle rungs.

IMO the worst message that anyone got in the last ten years was when Obama talked about that Trayvon Martin kid "I couldn't help thinking, he looks just like me. That could have been me. That could have been my kid." or whatever he said. His speech basically made it seem like nothing that Trayvon did differently could have saved his life - that cop was just looking for nigga to shoot, like cops do, and Trayvon just happened to come along at the wrong time.

Human experience tells me that's just wrong, if Zimmerman was looking for a bad guy of any race to kill, black white or in between, he could have easily found someone in need of a bullet, he didn't need to kill an innocent kid who was just minding his business. At the end of the day, Obama told little black kids in grade 3 that there's no point in graduating high school or university because there's a very real chance that cops will shoot you just for the colour of your skin. Joining a gang and walking around with a gun actually makes sense in Obama's vision of America. He set up millions of kids to have an excuse for failure.

Agree.  To say that every white person has only succeeded because of their skin colour, is asinine.  All that does is tell some in minority categories that they are "owed" success no matter what they do and if they don't get it, they get to blame it on racism.

Is there racism?  Ya.

Do some minorities get shut out because of their skin colour?  Of course.

Should I feel bad because I have a good job, which I worked hard for - pulled myself out of a poverty-stricken, stuck in a religious cult childhood, got an education and hustled and moved to where jobs were and created my own job - Sorry but I don't.  I earned my place.  Skin colour may not have been what held me back, but other things were, and they were just as hard to overcome.  Everybody has things to overcome in life.

It was simple a party costume my friend. People make mistakes!

 

It is still racism....then and now.   Trudeau comes from a province (Quebec) that has long treated blacks in such a manner.

Others have been forced to resign over such "mistakes"...but not Trudeau.

I went as an Indian.. sorry. 'Native'  one Halloween.  Possibly I was a racist before I understood what it meant.

What is the deal with Trump's Orange Face? Is he racist against oranges?

Tanning products are very popular these days...BILLION$ in sales....not considered racist.

"Blackface" is not as popular....just ask Trudeau.

Yes. My point is there are no descendants of the Byzantines because the Muslims exterminated them. Thus you won't find any 'natives' protesting and blocking railways in Turkey or demanding recognition as the original owners of the land.

That people examine the conduct of their ancestors is to their credit. Let’s hope we can progress as a species and say that certain actions, once considered justified, are no longer acceptable. 

Wallowing in guilt is not progression, though progressives do seem to enjoy it rather much.

Examining the conduct of your ancestors and then denouncing them for not acting as per the morals of the present, and then tearing down their statues is a moronic exercise in virtue signalling.

True...slavery was/is far more about labour economics than racism.

Yes, never mind that slight small detail, that the slaves were negros only LOL I'm sure those negro slaves would  agree with you here if they were alive to tell the story of those times.

No, Large detail.

Why? 

99% of freed negros who bought slaves, did so to purchase their family members/keep their family together since White plantation owners had no respect for the idea of keeping slave-families together.  I have a feeling that is not the case with your family's ancestors.
