Youtube Channel just calls white Canadians racist. They use "Islamophobia" a lot, to attack the Canadian people's character. It is anti-Muslims propaganda. Phobias are fears of things, and are medical conditions, and have no relation to your moral character. Arachnophobia is fear of spiders, people who are afraid of spiders run away, does that make them a bigot or racist? You can be afraid of Islam but not violent or intolerant towards Muslims, Just as you can be afraid of Communism but be friends with a communist. You can be afraid of the KKK with out harming them in any way. Calling people "Islamophobic" is Phobia shaming, and phobias cause people a lot of distress, and are not chosen feelings, and using a cognitive issue someone has to shame them and say they are morally corrupt is actually very cruel.

Hi, I take issue with your posters as you only show a white male being the racist towards a Muslim woman. Would they not be more effective, and fair, to have a series of posters with white women, Asian women, African women, Muslim women and men, etc. who are also capable of racism towards those who are different than themselves? If we are going to live together in the GTA lets be honest, fair and thoughtful. Make all aware that racism is not just dished out by white males, but all are capable of it. I hope you will see the benefit of this position and its educational value for all. Phil Steinberg, Born and raised in Toronto, now residing in Burlington, Ontario.
