I guess we should probably come up with some radicals ideas to encourage white women to have more babies like free daycare, lump sum payment for every white baby born, or free post secondary education for white students.

Canada still has a long way to go

What happened to that crowd sourcing project Gregg was talking about?

And probably a good idea to exit that lifestyle early. Rock musicians seem to have premature deaths.

Why do you assume she was Christian.

You guys played in a band?

For sure. The ultimate is finding a neighbourhood pub that plays good bands.

Graceland is one of my favourite's and I still like to dance to it. It has great rhythm and a beautiful cd!

You haven't answered how many close encounters you have had with the very people you don't want to allow into this country.

I'm not sure if this type of thread has been initiated (maybe by me), but my best concert ever attended was a very long time ago. It was Supertramp in London, Ontario, circa 1976 or 77. It was at an old roller skating arena which has long since been torn down. Cheech and Chong performed at the very same arena The absolute best concert I have ever attended and I have attended a lot. Supertramp was just on their way up and they completely blew my young mind away.

I am always surprised at your posts. I sometimes think that you have traveled around the word with boots on the ground in every single country on this planet. How on earth do you obtain such experience with brown people? Do you actually have one on one experiences with all these people?

So, here's the thing. Certain posters seem to define what 'legitimate reasons' are with absolutely nothing to back up those 'legitimate reasons'.

Lieutenant-General Romeo Dallaie has suggested Canada should take in 80,000-90,00 refugees and Harper is quite simply using security as a smokescreen. He further states: "Syria was a well-educated, middle class society and its citizens would make a contribution to Canada. "They will be an incredible asset, as the Vietnamese were and the Hungarians," he said. "And if you want to talk 80,000 to 90,000, we can handle that capacity." "Canada has already taken in more than 20,000 Iraqis, and said, "I don't remember people falling all over each other about security. And all of a sudden because they are Syrians — security has become a dominant [theme]?" "We could go right into those refugee camps and start pulling them out. They are all registered." Retired general Rick Hillier says.the Canadian Forces could play a key role bringing in 50,000 refugees by Christmas. He goes on to say: "The country has to move fast. "I've had the unfortunate experience of being in the middle of some of those crises where I served as a soldier," he said. "You really don't appreciate just how tragic an experience it is until you're in the middle of it, until you witness it personally. "For those kids and those families and older people who are living in terror and fleeing for their lives, waiting [a few months] is far too long for them." "Let's put a logistics operation in place, get all these cruise ships in Europe that come back to North America for the winter season and let's go and lease a couple of those, bring three or four or five thousand people at a time," Hillier added. "You don't have to fly people here on military airplanes. Take seven or eight or nine or 10 days to bring them across the Atlantic and you got more time to figure out assessments. This kind of operation is doable. This is what our nation has done for 147 years. Let's do it again." A great quote: "Lets stop being frightened of our own shadow". http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-election-2015-rick-hillier-refugees-military-christmas-1.3225732 http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-election-2015-romeo-dallaire-syrian-refugees-1.3228123

Who said it was a competition. It's about keeping opened minded for new ideas. And you haven't even seen it yet.

Always room for improvement.

Michael Moore has debuted his new film entitled 'Where to Invade Next' at the TIFF. Don't let the title fool you. Moore has plans to invade other countries to steal their good ideas. I'm looking forward to seeing it. It's been described as Moore's soft sell of socialism. Here is a trailer: http://www.alternet.org/video/watch-first-teaser-michael-moores-new-documentary

This is true for any grieving parent, even if they are Muslim. You are right. I guess the accusations here mean that muslims don't grieve the loss of their family like other 'westerners'.

Meanwhile, the distraught father is living in his war torn city because that is where his family has been laid to rest. If you speak to any parent who has lost a child, they feel compelled to stay in the very home the child was raised, never mind the city they lived together as a family. Until you can walk in someone else's shoes, you cannot judge or assassinate someone. Perhaps he made a deal with the smugglers so he could get his family to a better life. Many refugees will become smugglers and take on the risk of arrest as well as the dangers of the journey to escape the hell on earth they are experiencing. Many governments are involved in smuggling as well. Officials are easily paid off to look the other way when refugees are boarding a ship. The Australian government has been accused of paying off smugglers to turn around and not land in their country.

Again, these acts can be detected from hospitals and doctors.

You think harassment of gays doesn't occur from the non Muslim community. My son is gay. I know all about it. The Muslim community doesn't have this market cornered.

Well you did say 'why would Canada be different' which led to my questioning your posts.

Because you are associating fgm with refugees. Now who is dishonest. Or it could be we have too many threads on refugees, Muslims etc so they all blend into one. Hard to keep them separate.

Because you are associating fgm with refugees. Now who is the dishonest one.

Has that happened yet in Canada where Muslims are throwing gays off roofs
