Hey, we have an American news thread, why not a Canadian one?
::SMH::
Why do Conservative politicians always have to be such sleazebags? What the hell is the difference between "diverse" and "too diverse"?
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Vancouver. It's a beautiful city, and arguably the most diverse city in Canada. We spent some time in the Pacific Centre Mall, in the heart of downtown, and the ethnic background of all the people I saw was approximately 30% caucasian, 30% east asian, and 30% south asian.
Unfortunately, due to budget constraints, we had to live in the famously seedy East Side, full of homeless junkies. The ethnic makeup of those people is about 50% caucasian and 50% native.
There's a ghetto in Vancouver alright, but it's not populated by immigrants!
Instead of complaining about "diversity" (read: immigrants) destroying the country, perhaps spend some energy actually helping those homeless and addicted folk escape the vicious cycle of addiction and poverty.
3/ But why should we promote ever more diversity? If anything and everything is Canadian, does being Canadian mean something? Shouldn’t we emphasize our cultural traditions, what we have built and have in common, what makes us different from other cultures and societies?
4/ Having people live among us who reject basic Western values such as freedom, equality, tolerance and openness doesn’t make us strong. People who refuse to integrate into our society and want to live apart in their ghetto don’t make our society strong.
5/ Trudeau’s extreme multiculturalism and cult of diversity will divide us into little tribes that have less and less in common, apart from their dependence on government in Ottawa. These tribes become political clienteles to be bought with taxpayers $ and special privileges.
6/ Cultural balkanisation brings distrust, social conflict, and potentially violence, as we are seeing everywhere. It’s time we reverse this trend before the situation gets worse. More diversity will not be our strength, it will destroy what has made us such a great country.
