Under the tenant rights, nobody has the authority to disturb your privacy (not even the landlord) and stop you from enjoying your stay. You have paid for it.
In your situation, your neighbour has no right to come and complain. He should have lodged a written complaint to the landlord. It is up to the landlord to take action.
Now that he has already made a wrong move, it is upto you to lodge a complaint with your landlord and police. There is no need for any witnesses. Generally such people have long histories and known to police. There is another benefit of a written complaint, it will not only put everything on record but also insure your interests for any untoward incidence in future.
Your inaction at this stage may embolden him.

I forgot did you tell the supervisor about the racist taunts....???
No I did not. I didn't see what good it would do to mention it to him.

I would try and talk to the neighbour in a cool manner and discuss his problem and mutually find a solution.
So you want me to talk "in a cool manner" to a retard who makes racial slurs and a dumbass who bangs on walls to convey his message? Isn't the problem and solution adequately clear already?
The problem:
He sleeps at odd hours sometimes in the evening as early as 7:30PM. In fact he could be sleeping any damn time of the day or night. His bedroom shares the wall with my living room. My surround system creates too much sound for him to be able to sleep.
Solution:
Lower down the volume of the system permanently(because I will not know when he is sleeping and when he is not) so as to allow this f*tard to sleep. What is there left to discuss? If he wanted to discuss, the he would have called on me instead of banging walls.

call cops and also show them that it already happened before and that u had compalined to building supervisor.
What if this moron loses his head over the cop calling shit and trashes my car or something in revenge? The likes of such pieces of dried shit in folds of buttskin are crazy and unpredictable. I don't want to get into a fight with him but neither do I want to live under stress whenever I watch TV wondering," Hey man! Now is that bonehead sleeping? Should I lower down the volume a little. Shit! I couldn't hear what that man in the movie just said to his lover! Should I perk up the volume a little bit? But what if that shitface gets disturbed?...."

Change locality to one where tthere are no tattoed people.
Lot's of bad localities in Toronto.
Well looks like everybody living in Apartments has to depend on Close Captions or Subtitles as anything coming from the TV is a noise..
I often watch TV till late in the night (Till 2 AM most of the times).. I am also quite a fan of theater like experience.. whats the point of renting a DVD if you can't enjoy the sound. Well so far I haven't heard any bang on my door/wall.. I am lucky I guess
Anyway Friday is here..

Hey wisernow
Tattoed = Tuttoo
Don't git frightened o' the white mama. This has happened to me hazaar times and I call 'em "canuckleheads" and "swamp honkies" right back and does that ever spin their heads. They stop botherin' you after a while.
Do not be a Jaswant Singh and give in to them mamas. Stand yer ground!
Works with me everytime. But them i am a Mumbaiite- ulta kopri wallah!
. Even if they wanna take it outside I do. Them are jes cowards.
In all earnest though, do not take me advice seriously unless you are wiling to go all the way. I am and when that occurs 10 out of 10 times, they back down. Some o' these mamas have even become muh friends and wudya believe clients?
Lakin boss, apun pure Bambai ka babu hai- don't never turn the other cheek esp against one lone mama.
Like somebody said "jo dar gaya sala mar gaya"!

Get what you want by helping others get what they want
i think you should take this problem very seriously. unless the man is some crack smoking white trash serial killer, his reaction was very strange. you cannot simply 'ignore' it and hope it won't happen again. it will.
the best thing is to defuse the situation. go over (preferably with a couple beers --- he is obviously the sort of person who would appreciate such a thing) and instead of confronting him, explain that you want to find a solution. ask him to help you find a solution.
he may have strange work hours (garbage men often have to wake up very early) or whatever. but be firm: inform him that you WILL continue to be up and about at 7/8/9pm and after, you WILL have friends over sometimes, get-togethers, etc. and he MUST deal with it. the two of you have to find a way of dealing with it.
there are often problems like this but calling in the police, in my opinion, would be the last resort. it's always better to sort things out man to man than going to some authority figure. this will only put you at "daggers drawn" with him.
if you speak to him and he continues yelling out racial insults then he is a write off... you can tell him you will have no choice but to go to the authorities if he insists on launching hateful slurs... this is called a hate crime... it is a very serious offence in canada...
if it is any consolation to you, i once had a neighbour in Montreal, Cote des Neiges (some Desi may know the place) who FIXED his motorcycle IN HIS APARTMENT at night on a regular basis. and yes... that involved turning it on! at 2 or 3 in the morning.
i had to deal with this guy. it was not fun, believe me. but it had to be done. ignoring the problem will not make it go away... and he will think that he can get away with his behaviour.
you must act, my friend.
