So shoving your phone in someone's face and aggressively asking questions is racism. Got it. I suppose the specific prerequisites first need to be met.
Funny the commentator failed to mention this happened at a Muslim festival. Maybe that's why gurrattan didn't "correct" him.
Maybe there's a little more to this dynamic than just some backwoods hillbilly who supposedly doesn't know the difference between a sikh and a Muslim.

Fourteen disgruntled former New Brunswick NDP candidates are defecting and throwing their support behind the provincial and federal Greens — a move unlikely to spark confidence in the federal New Democrats on the cusp of an election call.
The ex-New Democrats announced their exodus at a news conference in Moncton this afternoon alongside provincial Green Party Leader David Coon.
In their declaration of support, the members note that federal Green Party Leader Elizabeth May has visited New Brunswick, while NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh hasn't set foot in the province since winning the leadership back in 2017.
Like I said, Jaggy needs to focus on rallying the troops.

Yes, he handled it just like his brother handles questions that are oddly difficult for him to answer.
By labeling it hate speech and branding the person a racist

Manic! & Welfare ... you two really don't like each other, do you?
I've got no problem with anyone here.
I just don't agree with a lot of what he says. Clearly, that sentiment is mutual.
It's nothing personal.

Show me a statement he's made that was racist
Of course he is not going to say anything that is straight up racist. He just wants to intact policies that will reduce the number of coloured people in Canada.

I don’t know anything about this guy. It seems to me he is trying to pull a Trump style campaign in the immigration department. I’m sure it will sway some people.
If you don’t read between the lines, their are some valid reasons for his plan.
Canada needs immigrants. A lot of them. Their is no reason why there shouldn’t be a good screening process in place with some possible short term restrictions. We live in a great place. Pick from the best. It’s unfortunate some in the past have taken advantage of the current system to require such restrictions. But that’s life, people suck.

Also ideological screenings are B.S. because who's ideologies do we use? Also the best don't want labour jobs and their qualifications are not recognized here so all you will end up is with people who resent Canada. What you want are people who have had a hard life and are willing to work their asses off to get ahead.
The first settlers that came to Canada where not even close to the best Europe had to offer.
You make some great points, but you also assumed I meant rich educated immigrants. I stated best, as in best for the country. I have no idea what that may be.

Right. Nothing you posted in that image has anything even remotely 'racist' in it.
Show me the evidence.

How about Canada's?
We do have something called the charter of rights and freedoms that outlines it pretty well

People lie. Just look at shceer and his stance on abortions. to one group he says the issue is dead to another group he says he will allow votes.
Just look at the singhs. Too cowardly to answer simple questions so they hide behind the race card.
weak

You wanna talk about Trudeaus lies, we'll be here all night.
It's 2019, Manic. How's that budget looking? Should have just about balanced itself by now, huh?

In the end, however, the researchers found the Trudeau and the last Harper government had the highest rates of follow-through on their campaign promises of any Canadian government over the last 35 years.

Where's your evidence to the claim that he's a racist?
You want it to be treated as a serious claim yet people like you continue to cheapen it.

Would it not be more effective to arrange a time to have coffee in person and a long extended conversation/debate instead of one person type a comment, other one asks for evidence, 3 hrs later, the other replies and says not enough evidence, ... etc.

I don't consider myself a racist, I don't hate other peoples, but I certainly want to preserve my own. And I think that's true of all people.
I have spoken all over the world and I have great respect for Muslims, I have great respect for the African people, I have respect for the other races. Even back home in Lousiana, I'm called a racist, but I have respect for the Black people of my country and I want them to have their own life, too, and I want them to be able to pursue their own destiny and not be controlled, and not be damaged.
Those are quotes from the former leader of the KKK David Duke. You take his word he's not racist?
Hitler didn't seem racist either at first. Even some Jewish groups supported him.
Your buddy may not have said anything full on racist but all his policies are designed to keep Canada as white as possible.
