Last night, I watched CBC's Interrupt: JAKARTA. It's a must-see! It's a documentary about 3 activists artists in Jakarta, and it enhances feminism and LGBTQ rights (both dear to Justin Trudeau's heart)........at the expense of another agenda that's obviously much dearer to his heart - fundamentalist Islam. The video is 30 minutes long - but it's worth it. http://watch.cbc.ca/interrupt-this-p...5a-00d25f27378 The message by these artists are blunt. These struck me: "This religious fundamentalism is gaining momentum, and it's mainstreaming. It's like pollution because it's all around us and we inhale it everyday, we don't realize how bad it is for us and how it's killing us. Before, we were afraid of the government censoring us. Now, we are afraid of fellow-citizens reporting us to the police for offending them.....for offending their religion....it's a public censorship basically. Civilians censoring civilians." Islamophobia came to mind. "It's just a motion!" supporters say. Really? What for? Why do we waste time and taxpayers' money on a motion, if it's not something significant? The motion for Islamophobia is basically a foot in the door. That's how these atrocious things start. They creep up on you. An artist from Montreal says: timer- 4:30 "The most striking scene I've seen in Jakarta this time is how many women here are wearing the Muslim hijab. Ten years ago, we didn't see much. The social pressure is getting bigger and bigger." Ironically, listening to Trudeau these days........ .........does he have that feeling of deja vu lately, I wonder? If Trudeau is unstopped, 10 years from now this artist will look back, and he'll be repeating that same line.....except it will be a description of Canada. Trudeau's stance on the niqab/burqa issue, supports and enables this social pressure. Anyone who support it are not women champions - they're enablers for oppression! You can't claim to champion women and yet at the same time, close your eyes to burqas and niqabs. You can't wash your hands and say that it's a woman's choice to wear a burqa or a niqab. Anyone who stands with Trudeau on this, is either an ignorant...........or a hypocrite. What these artists had observed and revealed, should open our eyes wider - and alarm us - to what's happening around us now.

By your own admission many times, you've said there are lots of people around the world who want to see "us" suffer. I don't disagree with that, the difference is who to blame, and what if anything's to be done about it. So now you make it sound like there's no problem, just right wingers dreaming there is one where there's actually none. That is why you can't rely on the left to do what needs to be done when times get tough. You need a right winger who understands the depth of depravity that is mankind, to deal with people who are as vicious as you can imagine. The good old days when life was simple are gone my friend, the 60's, 70's, 80's. You benefited from them while others suffered because of them. Now those people are threatening payback. That is why Quebecers created Bill 62, the need to show your face in public.

Why did Trudeau taken out the warning about FGM and the unacceptable honour killings, from the new citizenship guide? Taking and leaving out what used to be written as unacceptable..... .....implies that those are now acceptable.

What else was taken out from the new citizenship guide? The section explaining that “barbaric cultural practices” such as honour killings are not accepted in Canada.

Btw......if you think that's all, think again. http://www.torontosun.com/2017/09/05...algary-website let's repeat that part: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau recently removed the strict warning against FGM in Discover Canada — the citizenship guide given to all newcomers to Canada

Most of it is far less than mediocre, so may as well vertically integrate for a larger share of the ticket/subscription revenue. Canada just wants Netflix to keep contributing to a cancon pool of money that guarantees far worse than mediocre. So much content....so much crap.
