Walk down the wrong street in the wrong neighbourhood in the US and you'll get yelled at and confronted because of your race.

I challenge you to find me a street in Canada where that will consistently happen.
I think we are just as racist, just against different groups. Natives are treated quite poorly in Canada. I think it is about 10 years ago now that the Saskatoon Police officers used to take them out to the old power plant in winter and let them walk back without shoes. 3 bodies were found and police were only ever convicted of doing it to one guy that survived.

Police Officers killing people because of there race is about as bad as gets. So I think while we may be more accepting of immigrants we definately are plenty racist.
