The only times someone might give you a hard time is when refusing to learn even basic french words in Quebec. *Ofc disregarding the dumb shit that is not specific to Canada.
Stay out of Quebec and you'll be fine.
Alright, off Qebec, off Alberta, off islands and off rural zones. This post's getting helpful.
Canada is not a progressive shangri-la that media portrays. Cities are very multicultural, but those groups hate each other. Rural Canada is all white and full of hate. Quebec is fine in Montreal and Quebec city, but the rest of the province hates immigrants.
However, you will not encounter open hate and violence like the USA shithole.

Yeah, I'm here. We have minorities (for some reason - you crossed an ocean, why Buttfuck, AB?) and everyone seems to get along at least in public. Not sure how much worse it is than the city on race issues, honestly, although I'm white and it makes it hard to tell. You'll have a lot more trouble if you're gay, and I try very hard to hide my politics.
Interestingly, Evangelicalism has been hit especially hard with a demographic shift as their missionary converts come back, and their white members leave.
Thanks, gonna keep an eye open.
