He is? Other races? I assume this is meant to imply that white North Americans are more tolerant than non-white North Americans (first generation or otherwise)? Or non-white non-North Americans? What about the fact that this is many white person's 'home country'.

Have you ever been to a country that wasn't white?
(vacationing in mexico doesn't count)
Ever hear of students at a university in Canada rioting because of a White student dating a student of a different colour?
How often do you hear a compnay breaking a contract halfay through because they found a person who was a different skin colour than you?
How bought being refused service in a hotel because of your colour?
Being charged 3-4X the amount of a person of the native colour?
Having people yell at you on the steet?
Having people making motions, acting like the way you look, because it's different than them?
Having people constantly making fun of you in because they think you don't understand?
I will agree though, that here, it's mostly first generations that really have the problem, although I've met enough second generations that have the same issue (to a lesser degree however)
