Sociologist Christian Bergeron says the intense debate surrounding the recent influx of immigrants is shaking one of the pillars of Canadian society.

    The problem is not immigrants or Multicultural shit it’s when people start segregating themselves into little exclusive communities or clubs and start operating differently towards the society around them it’s a problem when people don’t integrate into Canadian Society… it’s not about integration of immigrants it’s the segregation and exclusion of other Canadians from immigrants and their communities.

      How is that really a problem? Canada has always been a patchwork country. Why is that suddenly an issue?

      Seems like it’s only become an issue once the majority of immigrants stopped being white.

        I don’t know why don’t you ask the Indian gangs killing each other in Alberta because no one is integrating and they’re keeping to themselves. Or ask BC how the Chinese gangs are going. Or ask Montreal how the construction racket is going. Groups that exclude other Canadians are fucking dangerous because they don’t care about Canada they care about their group

      Oh, leave people not harming anyone alone. They are not obliged to play with you if they don’t want to, grow up and deal with it.

          It’s not up to you to decide what that means. They are allowed and empowered to decide for themselves what “being Canadian” means. And if it means staying the fuck away from you and never, ever interacting, well that makes perfect fucking sense from where I sit.
