As much as we would all like to live in racial harmony, the world just does not work that way and it's pretty sad. I'm about as open minded as they come and know that it's just part of life that most races look down on others.

Not all people do, not at all.

The tension here in Canada is mildly justified, but then it's not at all.

There are thousands of people coming from third world culture coming here, and being welcomed by the Government with open arms, and there is not a damn thing wrong with that.

These people are living in a world that is fucked up, lots of war, no real police, and terrible things going on, and every PERSON deserves the best right possible.

The main issue is that the people who are coming here are not fully adapting to our system, the way we work, and over all ways of life here.

And it's causing some major issues. In a lot of cities the groups protest different things because they find it to be offensive, nude beaches, I've saw some going on here and people causing a huge headache over mannequins in stores with bikini's and them saying it's offensive to their culture etc. The thing is they are now here and need to adapt to our culture and ways of life.

I've been at the mall, or play lands and have watched a number of times children being hit openly in public, and that don't fly with me, and when I have spoken up about it and say "it's just a child, take it easy" I get someone getting very loud with me about their way of life and then have 4-5 Arabic men giving me a lot of grief.

I've been at Superstore and saw a husband slap his wife across the face because she disciplined their young boy "mohammad" for being out of control. He openly right in the middle of the store slapper her across the face and told her to never raise her voice to a male. Once again, is this really proper?

I understand different lifestyles, and cultures, but when someone is moving to a new country, and given free health care, tax breaks, money to start a new life, I feel they should appreciate everything around them, and also show respect towards the people around them.
Well said.
