There are numerous factors, but immigration is a key one.

I see the EU collapsing and this being like the beginning of the fall of the Soviet Union. Imo it will be Scandinavia, or the Balkans, but most probably Scandinavia that goes first.

Only if your eyes are completely shut. All the stores in the village I grew up in were just bought by the Chinese in one fell swoop and now they are buying up all the properties. Similarly the number of Islamic people in Canada has doubled within the last 20 or so years from 500,000 to 1 million. At the present rate of increase, Islam will be the dominant religion in Canada in only a few generations.

The word modern word xenophobia has been completely reversed of what it actually meant to the Greeks who created the word. The Ancient Greek concept of xenophobia was that someone who didn't provide hospitality for a guest was a xenophobe (fear of guests 'xenos'). It didn't mean that one allowed one's country to be colonized (the modern sense). The Greeks fought tooth and nail against being colonized, a perfect example being the battle of Thermopylae. The moderns consider defending one's land to be xenophobia, while the Ancients would have thought them and rightly so to be insane.

Well put.

Hooray for Brexit! Now Canada should do something about its own immigration problem and sovereignty.

"People in the Middle East, Muslims in particular, have always sought to blame outsiders for their internal civil wars." Jeez I wonder why, could it be because they stoke them regularly?

And so you just want to complete the process for them by ruining Canada too?

"Name the next CPC and NDP leaders" Tweedledee and Tweedle Dumb. If I start a referendum for support do you think as many people would vote for it as voted to change Stockwell Day's first name to Doris?

Very well put.

Why not just put up a flag and say let's be overrun!

That would be the Neoliberal form of genocide.

We have been protecting the Yezidis, Canada got invovled in North Iraq over the Yezidis, although I suspect we could probably do more. (I'm not suggesting get ourselves embroiled further militarily, but rather via supplies on the ground. If we brought a bunch of lone Yezidi women to Canada as opposed to letting them stay in Kurdistan in protected areas, then within a generation or two in Canada they would probably no longer be Yezidi.

Globalization is terrible.

"If it is being over-run that you are concerned about, then you should probably be looking more toward China, not so much the Muslim middle-east." You must have missed my recent anti-China posts, of which there have been many lately. Here's one of them: http://www.mapleleafweb.com/forums/topic/25718-human-harvest-chinas-illegal-organ-trade/ We're being overrun in multiple directions. The Canadian government has been selling off Canada to anyone who will bring them a few bucks. "And yes, their fertility rate is 50% higher, but as I have said before.... fertility is always high in poor populations, and especially poor and religious." Am I supposed to shed a tear or something at this point? Ressentiment is only making the situation much worse. And if they become 'unpoor?' They will use even more resources. Humans are the problem. "Even Canadians fertility was higher a hundred years ago. After a generation or two in the West, you will see the fertility drop like the rest of us." As I already showed after a generation or two Islam will be the dominant religion in Canada at the current rate. That would be insane to allow that. Also why are we in the business of shipping people here to convert them to our culture? Why not let them stay in their own country and keep their own culture?

"How much are those numbers related to immigration, and how much to Canadian Muslim families raising children here?" It's obviously a combination of both, unless you consider the possibility that they rose autochthonously out of the ground. This thread is about immigration, but its obviously about religion as well. There are immigrants from numerous countries, but Islam's population in Canada is doubling every decade or so. You'd have to do some incredible mental gymnastics to consider that a coincidence especially when in the Abrahamic holy texts it commands the holy to be fruitful and multiply and allows multiple wives.

It was a joke.

"What is the size of Canadian Muslim families, compared to the status quo?" http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/survey-shows-muslim-population-is-fastest-growing-religion-in-canada "The Muslim population exceeded the one million mark, according to the survey, almost doubling its population for the third-consecutive decade." At the rate of doubling every decade. It will be the dominant religion in Canada in only a few decades. People will ask, how we could have been so short sighted of the future, that we gave our country away that our ancestors struggled for. Did we not see our own value as something worth defending?

"Is that a factor of being Muslim, or being from a specific country." Obviously of Muslim culture. "What is the size of Canadian Muslim families, compared to the status quo?" I don't have the statistics, merely observation that they are higher than the average. "Do you have a problem with Catholics, they had a religious reason (church against contraception) for their large family sizes." Yes I do have a problem with Catholics. "Islam has been far more accepting of birth control within certain bounds than the Catholic Church." Current numbers have the Islamic population growing so quickly that it will in fact equal that of Christianity in some years. "Christianity is currently the world's largest religion, making up a third of the world's population with 2.2 billion adherents. Pew research shows that Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world. The religious group will make up 30 percent of the world's population by 2050, compared to just 23 percent of the population in 2010. That means the number of Muslims in the world will nearly equal the number of Christians by 2050." http://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2015/12/25/460797744/a-religious-forecast-for-2050-atheism-is-down-islam-is-rising

Municipal Auditor of B.C. "Ruta had delivered just one audit since 2013 after promising 18 in her first year. The office has an annual budget of $2.6 million." http://www.timescolonist.com/news/local/fired-b-c-municipal-auditor-may-not-get-severance-will-seek-judicial-review-1.1801450

"What direction the conservatives should take." I hear there's some new medical kits going around.

"What "problem" exactly would that be?" Dealing with fence sitting or not fence sitting Muslim extremists, which I would say actually is not even the worst problem with Muslim immigrants. The worst problem and I've said it time and time again is the high family sizes. "Are you telling me that statistically, you are more likely to be killed by a Muslim than by, say, a deranged "confirmed atheist" such as the Montrealer by the name of Lépine? or by a cop shooter like in Moncton? or by a bankrupt oriental, such as Phu Lam in Edmonton?" Statistically I'm not concerned at all about being killed by a Muslim in Canada. I'm concerned about the idiotic crusades the west is stuck in the Middle East and the fact that the west is being overrun by Muslims with high family sizes.

I'm well aware that Russia and the US's policies have been insane from the get go regarding the Middle East.

Why do we even need to have this debate? How many Muslim countries are there? Why does Canada need Muslims? If they are sitting here teetering on the brink of radicalization why did we bring them here in the first place? If we'd done that it would have been a prophylactic like birth control, you know what Erdogan said Muslims shouldn't use. We wouldn't be dealing with this problem right now.

The 10s of thousands of fighters returning from diasporas to join ISIS is pretty obvious proof.
