Nobody should be given PR in this country if they don't have the ability to make a modest living. If they don't have education/skills we can resettle them in a country more suitable to their economic condition. If you want gangs/shootings in our streets and slums in our cities the best thing to do is to bring people in who can't support themselves.

No. Reconciliation is a moving target. There will always be negative people whose favourite hobby is bitching about how shitty everything and everyone around them is, and making excuses for why they never managed to get their own shit together. We need to be in the days of tuning them out. Their sad saga always starts with: "Back in 1949..." or "In 1793..." and it ends with "and that's why the people who work 60+ hrs a week are doing so much better than I am." I get that it's a tragedy that children died in residential schools but the people who are making the loudest, dumbest noises are the exact people who would have been screaming: "We need to educate those children. We can't let them wander the frozen north, living in the stone age, while we're chillin' in our 19.5 degree living rooms watching TV."

Something I always wanted to ask one of you guys. Is there any evidence of a successful, purely secular society? Seems to me when they try it, it ends in mass murder. I see on the other thread you're calling the burning down of the Catholic churches in the interior "a good start." Doesn't sound like it's going to bother you when there are people inside. So why am I to accept you as the superior and more rational moral being?
