Ichy. What I got from the article is that multiculturalism in Europe is a total failure and we here in the West are heading down the same path of failure....even if it kills us. It is a total failure here too. I have travelled into a great deal of the US, and had better service and cleaner hotel rooms than I got in Canada. The rooms we had in Niagara Falls were always overpriced and awful, and the meals and service made me embarrassed. And yet Canadians wander around thinking how much better and nicer they are than Americans to my absolute amazement..... However when the bomb goes off, I don't think for a minute the RCMP got everyone, I think Canada will be radically altered.

""Immigrants should be welcome but they should assimilate to our way of life and not us doing the assimilating."" Can you tell us what assimilating that you have done?I know that i was born and raised in Canada and haven't done any assimilating...it is not required...but if it is,is ruled on by the courts.Canada is a country of laws and when one is a citizen you are free to test them through the courts.The general public might not like the results of these tests of the law but this is a far better system than the many alternatives that we see daily in other countries. Can you and i assemble freely,can we speak freely...worship freely?? if so, why not other citizens of different ethnic backrounds ...why would this disturb you?The vast majority are like you and i ...holding jobs , supporting their families paying their taxes ..there are unfortunately bad apples with every colour,but the law eventually takes care of them.
