Think YVRDave is dishing out a heavy dose of sarcasm!! I doubt if Canada would operate (or would have operated) successfully as a country if there was "heavy" racism.

Not sure if this helps but what racism that does exist tends to be described as 'polite racism', which I think means a cool attitude as opposed to outright verbal attacks.

We are a fairly diverse, open society and less racist than many places. However you will find a certain number of ingorant fools anywhere if you look hard enough.

Most Canadians are very friendly and chatty, in rural areas people may react slightly different to you only because we know most of our neighbours and know you arn't won of them, but if you are friendly and respectful most Canadians will respond in kind.
