A white man proudly declared his racism as he was confronted by an Indian couple in the parking lot of a Hamilton, Ontario Walmart Supercenter.
According to CBC News, Dale Robertson, 47, was arrested for threatening death as a part of a hate crime that was captured on video.
The disturbing video was uploaded to YouTube by the couple's co-worker and friend, Patryk Laszczuk.
Friday's altercation started after the couple tried to back into a parking spot and allegedly blocked Robertston, who became hostile.
"What kind of example are you setting your children?" the unnamed Indian man asked the driver as he got into his the silver Chevy pickup.
The man's wife filmed the heated exchange. As she made her way near the front of the vehicle, Robertson accelerated towards her and hit the brakes, giving the appearance she may have been hit.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" shouted the driver.
Here's the face of Dale Robertson.
At one point, the victim touched Robertson's arm and told him to "stop it."
"You put your f****n hands on me, I will break your leg," the driver said as he pulled away.
The Indian man asserted he was a Canadian citizen but Robertson was incredulous and demanded proof.
Really? Show me. Prove it. I don't like you. I don't like her. I would kill your children first.
Laszczuk also shared the video on his Facebook page and asked for help identifying the driver. "I was horrified," he said, commenting on the racist's threats. "That's disgusting, whether it's a fight or not, that's disgusting."
In addition to the threat charges, Robertson is also being charged for reckless driving and refusing to stay at the scene of an accident.
The Indian couples' names have not been released, but Laszczuk confirmed they are both Canadian citizens who have lived in Canada for seven years.
The woman suffered minor injuries from getting hit by the vehicle but has since been released from the hospital.
People are fearing the incentivized racism from the Trump administration has crossed the border.
People are no longer mincing words when it comes to calling out rampant hate crimes.
Sadly, these racially motivated incidents are not stopping any time soon, but we can all actively do our part in exposing the hatred by keeping our smartphones at the ready.
