American is an ethnicity not a race. You can't fix stupid.

No baseball is going to be played in Toronto, because of COVID-19, as the Canadians will not allow American teams from the US to cross the border. It confirms what many have said and thought for a long time. Canada has real deep racial issues. From the treatment of their indigenous people to people of color.

Canada loves to point out the racial issues in the United States and yet fail to address their issues.

The Canadian government is quick to allow US hockey players to cross the border to conclude their season however US baseball teams are not allowed because of the COVID-19. As most know, hockey is played by primarily white people, you know people like, them. Baseball on the other hand have people that don't look like real Canadians, you know, white, white,like them.

Isn't it about time Canada faced it demons like they want the US to do?

By would they let Americans in if a good portion of the country is too stupid to get rid of the virus. And how is that racist?

brain dead trumpkins are too stupid for air

Hey dummy, a lot of those hockey players are Americans. Oops. But it’s Canada. To a lot of their sports fans hockey good baseball bad.

A lot of Canadian cities they are going to let hockey players in

No. Just 2 cities.

Columbus, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Minnesota will all go to Canada during the first round, as rounds keep going on the potential for US cities playing in Canada continues. However they would be going to two Canadian cities, thanks for the correction.

Doesn't change the racism we are seeing in Canada.

* you...not we

We not you. Just because you refuse to see the systemic racism, doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Five charts that show what systemic racism looks like in Canada

George Floyd’s killing at the hands of police in Minneapolis and the ensuing wave of global protests have prompted many Canadians to take a deeper look at systemic racism. National data detailed on CTVNews.ca reveals the stark racial divide in this country.

Amid the anger over brutality and injustice, a number of prominent Canadians have cast doubt on the idea that racism is

COMMENTARY: Yes, there is systemic racism in Canada — our history is filled with it - National | Globalnews.ca

Too many Canadians are blinded by privilege to see that racism is as present in Canada as it is in the U.S., Meera Estrada says.

globalnews.ca

Lots of proof it exists and lots of ignorant Canadians denying it exists. The evidence is there, the Canadians refuse to see the truth, they claim they are above that. The evidence is there and it does exist.

Maybe Canadians need to stick to their own country's problems.

It does... Obviously i was talking about this specific decision. I think you probably could have figured that out.

Minorities not allow to enter Canada, whites allowed to come into Canada. It looks like a race issue. Canada could allow Toronto to play in their empty stadium and it hurts no more or less than the several teams flying in and out of Canada for hockey.

I think the main issue was already brought up: hockey is just very, very popular in Canada.

Citing quantitative data of "inequality" is not evidence of RACISM. There are cultural differences that more than account for the differences in income, employment, and wealth, and culture has nothing to do with race.

Very similar data could be produced for non-Blacks by grouping people raised in single-mother households against the balance of the population. Indeed, similar data would be found if one compared Blacks raised in single-mother households (the majority of Canadian Blacks) vs Blacks raised in intact families. How would racism explain that difference...it can't.

interestingly, the famous Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson, is one of the few academics who openly mentions the Black IQ deficit (one whole standard deviation), but he only obliquely mentions how that impacts average incomes, unemployment rates, etc.

So if one considers self-defeating cultural differences, and genetic differences, racism comes in a distant third in explaining "inequality." Based on what I've seen Canadians are the least racist white people on the planet.

Well that's a completely idiotic post meant to cover for a coward who is too scared to be openly racist.

Yes, there is systemic racism. We are still reeling from the intentional, institutionalized racism of just a few decades ago.
