Canadian woman causes ruckus at clinic refusing to get son checked by ‘Paki doctors with brown teeth’
Wednesday, June 21st, 2017 4:16:03 by fatimaarshadCanadians are believed to be more tolerant towards people of different race and ethnicity as compared to their American counterparts. However, a recent incident in Mississauga, Ontario, shows that racism still exists in the country.
A Canadian woman caused quite a stir at a clinic when she refused to get her sick son treated by ‘Paki doctors’. The incident was filmed by someone in the room and in it, the woman can be seen repeatedly asking staff for a white doctor to treat her son for chest pain.
The staff members can be seen telling the woman that no one on the staff met her demands, things grew tense from there. Staff members told her to go to a hospital instead of the clinic, but the woman said she had already been there but they only had “Paki doctors” with “brown teeth”.
“They only have brown doctors and they did not help my kid,” she can be heard saying in the video recorded by Hitesh Bhardwaj, one of the people who confronted the lady for her racist tirade.
“It was quite shocking,” Bhardwaj told Buzzfeed News following the incident, adding that the experience left him disturbed for the rest of the day.
As the woman continued with her tirade and grew more agitated, other people in the room intervened. “Your child clearly has more issues with you being his mother than him needing to see a doctor,” said one woman. “You are extremely rude and racist.”
“You’re brown, you’re brown,” the irate woman responded. “You’re all attacking me because I’m white.”
The police were called to the scene and they investigated the incident. Eventually, a resolution was reached and the woman’s son was checked by a doctor at the clinic. The clinic did not press any charges and has also declined to make any comments about the incident.
