It isn't as blatant as it is in the U.S., but it is still there "racism".

Partly,but,we need to compare apples to apples. They're in no way similar.

It's still called "racism" !

It may still be called racism but there's differing degrees of racsism. And it flows both ways.

Like Sawbill says,it's not a simple "black and white" (no pun intended) issue. It never is. It's real easy to fall into that trap. A lot of times,"racism" is nothing more than people acting like a**holes. There's a knack to telling the difference and it only comes with experience and wisdom.

Trudeau’s reaction to today’s questions was quite telling. Really had to think deep and remember his lines.

Seemed like there was less violence in the live feeds tonight, maybe the protests will fizzle out.

New York has lost it. Macy’s totally looted. Wonder after covid19 then this how many store small businesses will survive some won’t their burnt out

Either,his hidden ear piece malfunctioned and he was unable to hear Gerald Butts give him the answer or he had a complete brain fart. Take your pick.

He was only acting. His drama training at full throttle for effect. The little puke is phony as hell!

Tonights News on TV, both National and local was mostly about Racism.
On the National News, it showed a segment , here in Canada, where an RCMP Vehicle and the officer inside came up to an drunken Innuit and the cop opened his door knocking the man down purpoesly and then getting out and arresting him.
Racism was definitely mentioned and the RCMP cop was put on suspension.
We do definitely have it here in Canada.

Def. of Racism-prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.

From Camb. English Dict.-the belief that people's qualities are influenced by their race and that the members of other races are not as good as the members of your own, or the resulting unfair treatment of members of other races:

Maybe the big question is what gives all the African Americans the right to riot, loot and burn buildings and vehicals to the ground? As far as Canada gos, what gives the FN's the right to block and shutdown railways and set fire to the tracks when they leave and not charged for any federal offences? Quite often a certain race of people become their own worst enemy from their own actions. Some may call it racism but what or how you expect anyone to have respect from repeated criminal behavior to try and get what they want? It's simply a form of extortion and most people dont agree with it. What's unfair is watching this kind of BS to go on with little to no consequence.
