Canada is a mosaic rather than a melting pot


Recommended Posts

 

In Canada, because all parties compete for all ethnic blocs, minorities do not tend to polarize into just one party. That leaves little incentive for tribalism, even as minority groups feel empowered to champion their ethnic or religious identity.

It's great if there are more Sikh people anywhere, but diversity is not really a solution it's more of a running away from the actual problems. We do not live in a world where culture doesn't matter, so we should not pretend like everyone else would assimilate or integrate well into society without making their own demands. Allowing extreme immigration in a Non-Sikh planet like ours or open borders will give benefits to no one. This Justin Trudeau may have some ideas by turning Canada into a white country to a non-white country, but if he can betray his own people so casually it will only lead to a downfall.

There is no way you can compare Canada to Sweden lol. Islamists and other refugees run wild there. Trudeau won't be around long enough to take us down that road as well. 

Do you think once these open door and irresponsible economic reform policies have been instigated the future successor of the current guy in charge will roll it all back? Once you set upon the global path there is no reversal. Of course not, bro.

You know how white Canadians have a reputation of being laid back to the point of being perhaps too compliant, even when they should maybe step forward and make their voices heard? Up until relatively recently they've been content to go with the flow, but from my observations based on various sources and the usual internet chatter (where under the guise of anonymity people are predisposed to say what they truly feel about issues that perhaps they would shy away from discussing truthfully, due to fears of ostracism in the workplace, friends, and family) from Canadian people of all political and social hues, there's a genuine concern and, if I'm being honest, the beginnings of a panic about where Trudeau is looking to take Canada. Will you go full Sweden? Not solely under Trudeau you won't, but if his ways are seen as a template instead of an aberration, you're looking at trouble within the next decade or so.

Obviously with you guys being on the ground over there your daily experiences might differ, but I hope you at least have one eye on the future. Don't get caught napping.

Lol we're not close to Sweden but belie me there are places in Canada (most notably Alberta, Montreal) where Muslims are running wild and have no regard for the law. There were riots couple years back between Arabs and Jews in which a jewish family including old man was beaten by a mob. Also some pakistani gang bangers made a music video and the comments were riddled with anti punjabi hate and mind you this was shot in a town with a majority punjabi population. Luckily though its mostly the Goreh on the receiving end of this gangs.
Truedue is passing a bunch of weird laws that appease minority communities like the anti Islamophobia law where criticizing Islam will result in hate speech and also the new law where if you call a trans person by the wrong pronoun (calling a transitioned female who was born male a he) you could go to jail.

Learn the law before you make statements that don't make sense or are a watered down version of what the law is. Just think for a second, how does a person know what gender a trans was before? Its not even negligent or willful blindness. Its a matter of the trans telling others what they want to referred to as and only becomes civil or criminal if they are discriminated on their gender identity.  Here lets stop the fear mongering with presenting what M-103 on islamphobia says as well:

MotionThat, in the opinion of the House, the government should: (a) recognize the need to quell the increasing public climate of hate and fear; (b) condemn Islamophobia and all forms of systemic racism and religious discrimination and take note of House of Commons’ petition e-411 and the issues raised by it; and (c) request that the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage undertake a study on how the government could (i) develop a whole-of-government approach to reducing or eliminating systemic racism and religious discrimination including Islamophobia, in Canada, while ensuring a community-centered focus with a holistic response through evidence-based policy-making, (ii) collect data to contextualize hate crime reports and to conduct needs assessments for impacted communities, and that the Committee should present its findings and recommendations to the House no later than 240 calendar days from the adoption of this motion, provided that in its report, the Committee should make recommendations that the government may use to better reflect the enshrined rights and freedoms in the Constitution Acts, including the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
    • Good way of putting it, bro. One of the ongoing themes of Gurbani is the fake saint. Whether it's fake babas in Punjab or English-speaking personalities in the West, it's an continuing problem of religion through the centuries (and it's not exclusive to us by any means, this applies to all human societies).
