A shocking incident of racism has come to light from Canada. A video shows Canadian men unprovokedly targeting an Indian-origin couple in Peterborough, Ontario, by making obscene gestures and hurling racial slurs at them when confronted about their behaviour. The Canadian men allegedly damaged the Indian couple’s vehicle.
The incident occurred in a mall car parking when the Indian man confronted the Canadians for damaging his vehicle. The men can be heard shouting racial slurs and calling him “big nose”, “you f***ing Indian”, and “you f***ing immigrant”. One of the men even threatened to kill him, saying, “Do you want me to get out of the car and f***ing kill you?”
The video begins with one of the men holding the rear-view mirror and making obscene gestures. When the Indian man confronts them, the driver mockingly sticks out his tongue. One of the men repeatedly calls the Indian man “big nose.”
