1)The US is spectacularly racist in large chunks of it, and the UK isn't. Oh, and I'm not saying America sucks, I'm saying you have no idea what you are talking about.
2)I'm interested in the capitalism scale, and also how you'd explain away pre-civil rights America, which certainly was a festering bed of capitalism and was certainly overtly racist in a way few other places were at the time. Also, Australia.
edit: as for Canada, it has strict immigration rules regarding everywhere meaning immigrant populations have been less able to settle over the last 50 years or so, but for a country its size it has a fairly large non-white population with little tension.
