The real issue among police departments and the RCMP is not racism, it’s corruption and police brutality. Everyone must read a recent article by Maclean’s titled …The Nova Scotia shooter case has hallmarks of an undercover operation…
Racism is the end result as well as the disadvantaged of any nature
Remember those halcyon days when the RCMP were noble, admirable role models? 😕
@- No
If he is looking for racism, somebody gotta get a mirror for singh
Racism exist everywhere including in every ethnic communities it just so happen that it is to easy to see racism when it involves two different racial groups. For Singh to call a Block MP racist because he did not support Singh’s motion is like saying if Singh do not support Quebec’s separation from Canada it is racist.
dantankun well said!
Not even close to an accurate comparison. What does the separation of Quebec have to do with racism? The motion that Singh is proposing is DIRECTLY combatting systematic racism. So if you are against that, you are most definitely supporting a current system of oppression.
??? You are indeed off your rocker, as Richard C rightly said. Singh motioned to review the RCMP budget, use of force, tactics and trainings, and accountability, all specific to encounters with visible minorities. In short it is a motion to review systemic racism within the RCMP, so if you are against this motion, you must be BY LOGIC a racist. Singh calling the Bloc MP has NOTHING to do with Quebec’s separation.
@Austin Arrotta Separation just like everything now can be about racism. The Block feels that they are being discriminated why do you think we have the BQ it is for them to make sure that they get a “fair” share from the majority English Canada.
@dantankun (is like saying if) You’re right. But can’t expect amphoras to understand much of anything.
new drinking game, every time someone says systematic racism you drink a shot.
Not enough beer at the store bud.
What a new low Canada has sunk to.
ikr it’s pretty disgusting what the rcmp are doing
not ONLY CANADA, BUT the world…
We’re only going to get lower
It won’t get better till we get rid of the liberals and NDP, and green, and conservatives. They’re all fingers on the same hand.
0:55 – Yes, Jag should face severe punishment for cawing him names and huwting his feewings. That wasn’t cool of Jag to pick on a wittew kid. ¬_¬ Huh? What? Alain’s _not_ a toddler? 😕
Alian isn’t a toddler but I am starting to think Jagmeet Singh is.
Is no one questioning the BlockMP about his decision?
What a giant baby. Singh, you were brushed off because you were acting like a child, as you are still.
Our whole government is starting to look like a giant sh*# show, none of them can can just do what’s best for the country! It’s all about their party.
Agreed the bloc should be ashamed of itself. If one canadians life is in danger there is the potential for all of our lives to be in danger.
How is Jagmeet Singh’s actions against the country
If you say you are not a racist, you are a racist.
If you are silent, you are a racist.
If you disagree at all, you are a racist.
What a lovely world.
racist! REEEEEEEE
a weak political figure….
The Kashmiris Lives Matter, KLM, KLM … Indian Occupied Jammu &Kashmir.
The Racist State India is endangering peace in Asian Region.
I don’t know why I got recommended this in India but let me tell you Jagmeet Singh hates India he has said it live on news, it was aired even in India. He supports separatist movement in India and is even banned in India so yeah please don’t bring our country into your country’s matters.
🍁 IT’S A GRAB FOLKS. THEY ARE SEIZING THE OPPORTUNITY TO DEFUND OUR PUBLIC EDUCATION SYSTEM 🍁 YOUR KIDS ARE GOING TO HAVE NO FRIENDS, STARING INTO SCREENS, UNTIL.THEY ARE SUICIDAL 🍁 IF YOU WANT TO PROTEST ANYTHING. PROTEST THAT!
That’s exactly what the Conservative government and Ford are doing in Ontario.
We want elected Presidents and proper congressional representation, not primping Ministers dancing to the beat of a secret royal bureaucracy.
What happened to Canada where are the leaders that want what is best for Canada there is so much left it is unbelievable and sad
The Bloc MP is a racist, it’s the truth, everyone knows it.
Well, if the shoe fits……
Looks like vertically no one knows how unparlimantry langue and decorum works. That said, I totally support Singhs motion but there are rules to follow. BTW, the apology is more of a retraction then a “I’m so sorry” kinds thing.
JAGMEET BULLSH8T!!
“Also all Hindus must be punished severely for the 1984 massacre I call a genocide because I am totally not prejudiced despite being consumed by hate.” – Jagmeet
