In pursuit of a better lifestyle. Whites are a minority in Canada? Really?

Outraged! Thunder Bay Mom Wants answers
CANADIEN replied to charter.rights's topic in Local Politics in Canada
Assault is a big strong of a word IMV. That being said, the T.S. clearly crossed the line and should be fired. If the ponytail was innaprpriate or against the rules, the parents should have been notified, and those rules should have been madeknown right from the start. Somehow, I doubt that this was a school rule. I'll be curious to see how the people who clamour for parents' right to withdraw their kids from the classroom every time words like gay or evolution are mentioned will react to this ooone. -
Starting with immigrants from Estern Europe, immigrants from Southern Europe, or Jewish immigrants? Thet were deemd less desirable then.

A typo

There should be serious consequences for discrimination. One more reason why the party investigating complaints cannot be the judge.

We can discuss normal people anytime..... Your m*nure is anything but normal. :lol:

You really do think that racism and discrimination are not harmful? What distant galaxy are you from?

I have. And when an employer makes it known to its manager that women should not be hired to ll tv's, is it because of their lack of skills? You chose to reserve the whining about immigrant emplouee this and immigrant employee that for after the hiring. Want some brownie point? If they're not caught, it's OK?

As usual, what you say and facts are two separate and opposite concepts.

Considering that I said six months max, this says a lot about your reading skills. Yet, you wrote it.

Yet you lament the good 'ole days when your surroundings were all white. Yet, it you're nice neighbour had been born in jamaica, you would advocate barring him. And let's not foorget, if we go back two, three, four generations, we'll probalby find an ancestor of his from one of those places not suitable enough.

Discriminatory acts are not crimes under the Criminal aCt even though they're illegal.

What kind of criteria should immigrants meet?
CANADIEN replied to Machjo's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
That's exactly why I am no fan of the "we should only accept people from certain places" b.s. -
You mean I failed to agree with your badly disguised prejudice. My homeland? why would I want CANADA to separate, and from whom?

Good. You can sit with them on the school benches.

Should Canada have the death penalty?
CANADIEN replied to Topaz's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Once again. Truscott. Proven guilty by a jury of his peers, beyond resonable doubts. Sentenced to death, with the sentence commuted not out of any doubt but because of his age. -

You do not need to establish an established church to have religious texts studied as litterature. Actually, not having one would help doing that. As for the idea of an established Church. One of the good concepts that came from the American Constitution was the refusal of an established Church, Setting a Church as the official one, a legal ppoint of reference, is the best way to ensure sectarianism and religious descrimination. -

One word. Truscott. -
Want barbarism? Ever heard of the Assyrians, the Babylonians, etc? Or the massacr eof most of the Cannanite population by the Israelites under Joshua's? There have been less than a few hundred years of peace in that region oer the last 8 000 years, and you'll fnd a lot moe than you'd think AFTER the Muslim conquest? Want intolerance? Most Christian and - yes - Jewish populations of the Middle East welcomed the relative religious freedom that resulted from the Muslim conquest in the 7th century. Was a change from the persecution the had endured as the "wrong types" of Christians or "Jesus-killers". Actually, no need to look further than you.

Point taken.

Excuse me if I am wrong, but my understanding is that the target of YTV is children and teenages. Not young adults. Then, political ads of any stripes have no place there. Ads encouraging children to become what they can be and to help reserve the energy are political? :lol:

It's about FACTS. We are talking about people who face an unknown procedure that may result - if they have indeed legitimate grounds for being admitted but fail because they don't understand the system - in them being send back somewhere where they will be in danger. I am most definitely not in favour of refugee processing dragging for years and years because of lawyers in it for the bucks. But the should have access to legal advice, to ensure that they understand the procedure, understand their rights and responsibility, and in order that true refugees be admitted and bogus ones have no claim to say that the process was not fair. Besides, refugee status is not a service. For genuine refugees, it can be a matter of life or death.

There seems to be an epidemic of people talking to themselves here. Good thing I am immune to it.

Gestapo? You need a rest. We are not talking about crimes here, so the cops are not the solution. Looking into allegations of discrimination or harassment should be done by people trained for it.
