Perhaps your insistence that immigrants/refugees don't like to work, live off welfare, folks you don't normally engage with.

Yes.

No smear here. Just stating the obvious.

I don't have a problem with that, not at all, but people will live where they feel most comfortable. For example, the west end is predominantly a gay community and is the go to neighbourhood for newly arrived gay residents to Vancouver. Do you have a problem with the west end becoming a mostly gay community?

Living as a white guy in Richmond, I think you have more of a hidden agenda here.

You are in denial if you think neighbourhoods won't be created because of their natural bonding

I take offence with the word ghetto. Look up the meaning in the urban dictionary. Canada has plenty of neighbourhoods with a dominant culture besides caucasian. It doesn't make them ghettos. Sounds to me like this is what you are against.

And yet they whine because of the slow down in admittance to this country. Can't win for losing.

I believe the topic is islamaphobia in Canada.

Is this complex we are discussing, a ghetto?

Are Mandarin speaking complexes ghetto as opposed to Cantonese complexes? Are French speaking complexes ghetto? I don't understand your last statement.

So in other words, you have no clue as to the benefit packages being offered.

Why would I deny that?

We also need to remember that cases have been thrown out if the appropriate translators are not found for the non English speaking defendant. So yes, English is the official language spoken in court but we can't guarantee defendants speak English and if they don't have access to translators, so much for BC laws.

That's quite some benefit package.

Since Jesus and Mohammad are figments of the imagination, I would say No.

Post #28. I said "I have no idea what reality world you live in but have you looked at the stats for double income households with kids?" You said: "No. If you have statistics, please provide them."

How many studies do you need to read to show that 'lovingly applied corporal punishment is ......' is not an effective positive behaviour modification technique. http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2012/02/06/children-physical-punishment-study_n_1258351.html http://www.apa.org/monitor/2012/04/spanking.aspx https://newrepublic.com/article/119469/adrian-peterson-expert-explains-long-term-effects-child-abuse

If you read back on your posts, you asked for stats on double income families. Post #28

Kinda like the tobacco companies back in the day denying a link between smoking and cancer.....

Oh my gosh! Merry Christmas eyeball. You will be in my thoughts!

Why on earth would you suggest 90% Chinese live in Richmond and why wouldn't Tim correct you, considering he lives there?

Let's all hide under our beds.

Naw. This is an Asian thing. Enough bigotry to go around here. No need for Muslims.

I have been informed that 3,500 government sponsored refugees will be accepted into BC by the end of 2016. For anyone concerned with actual numbers. I should add, as well as 280 privately sponsored refugees.
