All that is required is a single form to fill out and then the provincial HRC will start a case including an investigation and a tribunal that you will have to attend to defend yourself. Even if you win you still lose because it took a bunch of your time and you may have decided to hire a lawyer to help defend you.
The downside risk of giving a reason to me far outweighs the benefits to the employer of giving that reason and I would be very reluctant to do it.

This is very true.
There are many employment agencies who would be able to diagnose this problem for you (Ethnic or not), that would be the proper arena to be providing feedback.
