but their lousy attitude as far as blending in like the immigrants of old We have similar issues here. I was watching an Canucky comedian Russel Peters (ethnic Asian Indian) the other night. He does a real funny routine involving his dad who's been here 40 years and speaks perfect English complaining about recent immigrants that can't speak English.. Part of our common problem was first a misguided sense of entitlement by many that are born here that somehow has extended itself to, because of our liberal systems, a sense of entitlement by many immigrants also.. My wife works as an audiologist and she has many complaints about people and their sense of entitlement to assisted devices programs (hearing aids in her case) and free services and lack of respect for same. At one time the riff raff were born here mostly, now we seem to be importing them too... I really believe we are creating the problem in both of our countries. regards Kastel
