In my experience, most people that complain about UK immigration either have a bad attitude on arrival or can't face the fact their true reason for entering the UK was not as on the paperwork and they got found out.
^ . I wouldn't call it racism. I get hassled by UK immigration because I am young and Australian and therefore going to overstay my visa

. I have my "Right of Abode" now though

. The OP may expect some extra questions, but I would think after seeing your exit ticket and your Canadian residency they would not be overly worried that you are planning on overstaying. You should probably heed your own advice and listen to folks with experience not "word on the street"
