Here's a news article highlighting white face and wanting more refugees to come to Canada from Africa.

There's no article posted.. It's also not a conspiracy since most Canadians, including myself, are okay with refugees coming here. It's what we do

Got a source for that?

Shush you! You're going to frighten the liberal living in a bubble!

Read that link, i have no idea what the big gotcha moment is in that? Reports from a school with kids fighting? Big whoop

What's the point of this article?

For what? My own opinion or the fact that historically Canada has always been willing to help refugees. We don't really care what colour your skin is or where your from, just don't be a dick and follow the rules... It does help that we have a very strict vetting process for immigrants and refugees

For your claim? Thanks.

Six-in-10 Canadians chose “disagree” when asked the question “Are immigration levels too high?” in the February survey by the Environics Institute for Survey Research – a finding that has remained relatively stable for a decade. Eight-in-10 said immigrants have a positive economic impact. Compared with last year’s survey, more respondents believed that immigrants adopt Canadian values. Most of the national results extended a steady 30-year trend toward greater acceptance of immigrants.

Mines from this year, neither of those are. We can sit here all day and find articles. Are you saying most Canadians don't support immigrants and taking in refugees? Canada has done stuff like this going back to the underground railroad... And besides all that the OP never even posted an article! Why don't you ask him for a source

Sounds like you are trying to manufacture consensus. Odd.

Why do you respond as if you didn't even read anything I said

Why don't you ask OP for his article that was supposed to be posted?

Are you implying Canada is anti immigration? I'm not manufacturing anything what are you talking about. Canada has a history of taking in refugees does it not?

Flail fish out of water. Flail!

Gotta love these 3 day old accounts just hammering on the topic dilution

TIL account age means anything on Reddit.

No but sidestepping in a conversation means something

just don't be a dick and follow the rules

How about assimilating into there culture? What's the point of coming to a new country if all you do is cloister yourself in little communities of your own…continuing to solely speak your native language, eschewing new customs and not assimilating into your new culture?

Might as well have stayed where you were…but they probably don't offer handouts there.

We dont have problems with assimilation, having strict vetting process helps with this as well as offering the resources to get new Canadians started. Refugees don't have to assimilate since they are only granted temporary stay...

We dont have problems with assimilation

Lol…really? Ever been to Richmond, B.C. as one example?

Do you have any data instead of anecdotes?

Hey look, meat-head…I'm fn Canadian too and you don't fn speak for all of us regardless how condescending you act. What's more…you couldn't possibly be aware enough of all immigrant communities around the country to make a blanket statement like "we have no assimilation problem".

My guess is, since these immigrants are being booted from Israel and shuffled here instead you may have just a tiny bit of bias for the chosen people.

If you give a shit look up the demographics of Richmond and see for yourself.

I'm done with you.

That's why I went and got data to support my claim. It's undeniable that Canada has always supported helping refugees ever since the underground railroad

Hey look, meat-head…I'm fn Canadian too and you don't speak for all of us (or even a majority of us) regardless how condescending you act.

Check the article I posted to someone else, I can send it to you again. My only assertion is that Canada as a whole is pro immigration and we have historically helped refugees.. I don't see what's so controversial about that

What's more…you couldn't possibly be aware enough of all immigrants/immigrant communities around the country

Same to you then, that's why anecdotes are bad for supporting a position

to make a blanket statement like "we have no assimilation problem" (as evidenced by your lack of knowledge of Richmond).

I guess it depends what we mean by assimilation problems, language barriers happen but I don't think that's a big problem

Krist even many of athe natives in Canada are unwilling to assimilate.

Lol this is the most ignorant shit I've seen all year. Yes it'd the NATIVES that need to assimilate to us, never mind all the decades of preventing them from doing so on top of invading this land from the get go

My guess is, since these immigrants are being booted from Israel and shuffled here instead you may have just a tiny bit of bias for the chosen people. Could be wrong tho.

If only OP had linked that article to mention what you were talking about. I'm not sure what's going on with refugees being sent from Isreal.

If you give a shit look up the demographics of Richmond and see for yourself.

You're really hung up on problems going on in 1 city, that's a bad way to try and measure anything across a whole country

What province do you live in? I personally find many immigrants (since you don’t believe Refugess should have to) do have an issue with assimilation.. along with rudeness.. I can’t grasp the rudeness.

Ontario, refugees are only different Becuase they aren't supposed to stay for good

We do have a bad track record for what we do if they don't follow the rules though.

Incoming anecdotal story!!!

I do know a guy, an immigrant from Ireland, came to BC at 3 months, never got his immigration. Well he decides to rob a few banks. Was notorious back in the 80s

He gets caught and does time. Parole comes up and they notice then that he is a landed immigrant.

They ship him to Ireland.

Long story short he gets a gig as a bouncer by when shit hits the fan he assualt a guy and last I heard he was doing time there.

In the other hand we let "honour killers" skate.

The racism out of America is unreal man. Can confirm also Canadian.

Have you witnessed it in the States? Just wondering

No we really aren’t ok with it. My parents are legal immigrants to Canada and they’re sick of it too. Refugees depend on government handouts in this day and age, pre 80s it depended on hard work and sweat. You’re either not a minority, or a sjw. Quit reading your local liberal news and open your eyes to what’s really going on.

"we" as a country, currently and historically have been welcoming of immigrants and refugees. I'm neither a minority nor am I a SJW... How about you quit being misinformed and stop telling people to open their eyes, that's childish

“We as a country” is a collectivist statement from the beginning. And the Canadian government turned away Jewish immigrants in the 30s and 40s. Quebec laws and culture are often hostile towards immigration (specifically Muslim). “We as a country” is basically a useless phrase in country as geographically spread out and culturally diverse as Canada.

as fellow skeptic what do u think of my new post

Canadians live in their own world. They voted for liberals, this shows how brilliant they are.

Love how people assume that my post was saying I think refugees shouldn't come here. everyone is a foreigner I dont care who comes here just dont hurt people.
