Canadian Woman Demands 'White Doctor' in Video Captured at Walk-In Clinic [View all]

A Canadian woman at a walk-in clinic on Sunday demanded that her son be treated by a "white doctor," launching into a rant that was captured on video as others in the waiting room accused her of being "extremely rude and racist."

"Can I see a doctor please that's white, that doesn't have brown teeth, that speaks English?" the woman said in the video captured at the Rapid Access to Medical Specialists clinic in Mississauga, Ontario.

"You're telling me there's not one white doctor in this whole entire building?" she said to clinic staffers who told her that she would have to wait a few hours if she wanted to see a pediatrician who is white. "There's nobody that's Canadian? Nobody that was born here?" the woman added.

The woman, who has not been publicly identified, claimed that a previous doctor could not understand her and did not properly treat her son, who was suffering from chest pains. "He was not speaking English. His teeth were brown. I do not need his help," she said.



The video shows witnesses in the waiting room confronting the woman, accusing her of setting a poor example for her son and telling her to seek medical treatment elsewhere.

"Seeing it so openly, without any fear, in front of so many people, without even fearing that someone can report her – it was really shocking," Hitesh Bhardwaj, who recorded the video, told CTV Toronto.

America is becoming so great that deplorable behavior is expanding northward. Or Canada isn't always as liberal as they would have us believe.

The woman was identified later as having a mixed race child and an Indian-Trinidadian boyfriend/baby daddy. She might like dating brown guys but doesn't like brown people otherwise. It's a strange concept.

Or when people get upset and frustrated, it brings out the bigotry and prejudice they've been quietly feeling inside but kept hidden.

The video also shows when she decided that she was the real victim being attacked and outnumbered by dangerous people. In America, people have been shot and killed for less.
