I am Groot

The population of Brampton is 600k and it's almost entirely populated by immigrants from Southeast Asia. You can't compare it to Chinatowns or 'Greek areas'. More than half the population of Toronto are immigrants. Vancouver is much the same. And those percentages rise yearly. This is not something we've experienced before. I'm not a poet or a writer. I can't paint but I know art when I see it. The problem is much of our culture descends from the UK, and the Liberals have spent the last fifty years trying to destroy all traces of it in hopes that would make Canada more pleasing to Quebecers. What's left is a peaceful, tolerant and laid-back manner of thinking, acting and behaving that has unfortunately left us open to being wiped out without even putting up a fight. Because it would be too rude to protest.

And once again, this issue seems clear to everyone but you. The guy was arrested and bailed, and never showed for his court trial. He was arrested again, and bailed anyway, and never showed for that one either. He was arrested again, and bailed again, and clearly had no intention of showing up for that. These were not crimes that occurred vast geographical distances away from each other. They were all in nearby areas of Ontario. And what we want is for vermin like this to be locked up so society is safe instead of praised, defended, and admired by the Liberal party of Canada and its shallow airhead leaders

Oh there's a surprise. The Quebec guy defending the Quebec guy on currency. Betting you had no defense of MacDonald being removed from our currency and replaced by a nobody black hairdresser who so loved Canada she moved to New York.

The people who suffer most from immigration are the poor. They're the ones who are increasingly finding it impossible to pay rent even as their wages are frozen due to wave after wave of immigrants and foreign workers. The Left used to be concerned with the plight of the poor and the blue-collar worker. Now it spits on them, utterly enthralled with its devotion to diversity, equity, and inclusion to the point any amount of immigration - as long as it continues to be largely non-white - is a wonderful thing and not to be opposed.

A black guy swore at me last week. Should he be in prison for that?

Like a lot of people who claim to be on the left, you are obsessed with white knighting the culture, dress and religion of foreigners even while you pour scorn and contempt on Canada's.

Here's my suggestion for you. If you smack your pointy head a few times you might shake some cobwebs loose from your decaying brain and get it to function again to at least the level where you could carry on an intelligent conversation that didn't emphasize your moralizing and virtue signalling.

I was reading a post by a guy who'd immigrated here from India twenty years ago on another forum. He had lived in Brampton but had decided to move. He said Brampton no longer felt like it was a part of Canada anymore. How many other parts of Canada now resemble other areas of the world, and how many more will in future as Trudeau continues to increase immigration with brainless zeal? So what of Canada's own homegrown culture? It's values, traditions, culture and history?

No, they actually aren't. According to Statistics Canada the only real shortage is in unskilled workers and a few specific areas like healthcare (caused by poor government planning). Preventing employers from having to raise wages, thus keeping them at minimum wage so that Canadians won't want to do them. All but skilled immigration should be halted. Most refugees are just economic migrants and should be turned away at hte borders. The progressive Canadian media love immigrants. As do politicians. It is against the rules set by the media, politicians and academics to ever speak of Canada having a culture except with disgust and contempt for our evil past. If you mention anything about our culture, traditions or history with approval you must be a white supremacist nazi xenophobe and probably worship Satan. You think I joke? Just ask that imbecilic twat who calls himself Herbie.

Why? Kind of like Quebec politicians at the federal level being enthusiastic about sky-high immigration - as long as most of the immigrants stay the hell away from Quebec, right? Wouldn't want your 'culture' to be endangered.

And In Montreal, you have fewer immigrants. Because in Quebec, your government controls immigration and doesn't want very many. And it screens the ones it does take and demands they integrate as quickly as possible. Great argument! We'll triple Quebec's share of immigrants!

You know this was written seven years ago, right?

Perhaps your reading skills weren't sufficient to take in that before the charges in Milton on which he was released (and a bench warrant was issued) he'd ignored previous charges in two other jurisdictions and skipped bail. So was he given bail AGAIN?

Almost all assertions are just that until evidence is supplied. I'd actually like to gather the numerous instances in Trump's life, the numerous statements he's made, incontrovertible things he's done, gather them all into a neat list and confront a Trump supporter. Though frankly, I doubt they'd care. I think most Trump supporters know he's a scumbag, but he's always saying nasty things about the 'libtards' so they adore him.

The Left and the Right both deal in conspiracy theories. It's just that the Left don't acknowledge their conspiracy theories as conspiracy theories. Both deal in selected facts. They will tell you what facts back up the viewpoint they have and they want you to have and downplay or ignore other facts. It's lying by omission. And yet they're presenting facts.

Both of these are facts. The evidence is overwhelming.

I wonder how much we had to offer up the Sultan to get him to agree with that.

It is a demonstrated 'fact' that Donald Trump is a scumbag and Justin Trudeau is a smug, sanctimonious lightweight. Observable facts. Though some may disagree.

What I would expect is that if someone had already demonstrated they would ignore bail conditions and not show up for court then the next time they were arrested they would not be granted bail.

The purpose of universities is not to coddle and cater to the whims of emotionally immature students but to challenge, educate and enlighten them. They are not supposed to be retail enterprises devoted to customer satisfaction but educational arms of the state. Else why do we put so much taxpayer funding into them?

Disrepute: noun The state of being held in low esteem by the public. How much esteem is our legal system held by the public these days? Every facet of the legal system seems to be in a mess, but the one that causes the most notice is the criminal justice legal system. It's bad and it's getting worse. And our learned judges don't seem to care much about that. Nor does the government, obviously. Our cities are getting to be more like American cities, plagued by vermin the system runs through a revolving door of injustice and spits out again and again to harm the citizenry with no rhyme or reason. The Liberals' obsession with racial leveling, with diversity and equity garbage has made this infinitely worse because the people who commit the most crimes are the people they feel the most need to protect: blacks and natives. That doesn't mean they actually have any plan or intent to eliminate what causes the black and native communities to commit so much crime, particularly violent crime. Instead, they simply order the legal system to go easy on them wherever possible. Easy bail, slack sentences, easy parole. Until we're left with this guy, who could be the poster boy for the incompetence of the system. On the same day of the brazen stabbing on Toronto's subway system, the accused, Moses Lewin, was supposed to make an appearance in a Milton, Ont. courtroom to face another string of charges, court staff say — but he didn’t show up Instead, the court issued him a bench warrant. Months before, Lewin was supposed to be in court in Toronto on other charges that included illegally possessing an eight-inch fishing knife, and never appeared, documents say. It’s unclear why the Toronto court released Lewin in the first place — he had another outstanding bench warrant after not showing up for further charges in Newmarket, the records show. These are among several bench warrants, missed appearances, and charges of failure to comply with release orders described in documents obtained by CTV News that have sparked questions about whether various Toronto-area authorities could have done more to hold Moses Lewin in custody before the attack. “It all suggests the justices of the peace telling him to behave is not worth the paper it’s printed on,” criminal lawyer Ari Goldkind said in an interview. https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/alleged-ttc-stabber-dodged-appearances-in-multiple-gta-courts-documents-show-1.6475102

Putin has so alarmed them that even famously neutral countries like Sweden, Finland and Switzerland are now frantically looking for mutual defense partners. But the great August knows Russia is just a kindly teddy bear and no threat to anyone.
