I'm Canadian and can confirm Canada has always been racist gestures broadly at indigenous affairs and history of violence and assimilation.

That being said Canadians are very nice and it's only a smaller minority that is racist/ awful.

This is true of America, too. I think most people you are likely to meet in America sit between the "not at all racist" and "I mean yeah but it's pretty low key and subconscious" end of the racism spectrum, it's just that our more virulent racists are so often cops and presidential candidates.
