In Canada I don't think we should be bringing the fight to other parts of the world, because I think that history shows that rarely is this successful in doing anything other than encouraging radicalism. We should be focusing on making sure that we don't have radicals to contend with in our own country, and we will never get there if we can't go beyond singling out specific races or religions for attack because that will never fly. We should be making sure that our immigration system is filtering out radicals, free-loaders, or people from countries whose statistics show a gun-happy culture, because we need more moderate, skilled, entrepreneurial immigrants who pay their way with taxes and love to live in a society that loves freedom and peace. With the US having a much more closed door to legal immigration and having a worse global image, we have a great opportunity here, and a walk through many immigrant neighbourhoods in Canada (take Scarborough for instance) reveals that we could and should be doing better

and what about the Muslim men arrested for planning to blow up Bay street? Do we just forget them too?
