Really, it's kind of pathetic.
What I'm saying is that it seems white people complain - to each other. But they don't do anything about it! People whine about this and that, but they didn't show up to the city meetings, or anything else like it.. Plus their argument is what - to keep enforcing Christianity on Muslim people?

And I don't see the muslims asking us to say their prayers, or teach about Allah or the Qu'ran in our schools, or anything of that nature. They also don't complain about nationhood things like the flag, or about our laws, I mean it's really not as bad as people think.

Biggest issue here in years I can think of was when a Sikh police officer was conflicted over his turban and a police hat. White people were "outraged" as they say, because it's the uniform, and why should these people get an exception!!! lol.. Like they *REALLY* truly care about what a police officer wears or something.. Anyways now they just make them wear black turbans, with a police badge on the front.

It all comes down to free speech, and if the people in charge decide they have valid concerns, then that's their decision to make.

Plus I'm happy that these cultural groups fight for things that are important to them. That's how they really become part of our country and system. I truly believe they are making Canada better by changing our laws to suit their needs - because they are just as Canadian as I am, and my Canadian heritage goes back at least 6 generations.
