As you can see it's two diferent word.
if you just want to say discriminatory,
No, I want to say racism and said racism and it's the proper and accurate english word in this case.
By stating it is racism, though, you are saying that the French speaking Canadians are racially different than the English speaking which is flat out wrong.
No, that there is ethnic racism between the two due to there history here, there are some people here who believe it's two different race, from both ethnic background. Both are human beings as we all are.
