A difference with a distinction.

It depends on the quality of the individuals and how well they enter the melting pot.

And of course it depends if any are Wahhabists.

Canada also has a lot of atheists. All these new Muslims should be exposed to that idea - and have the freedom to leave their communities.

There is no difference. Quality of the individual: I agree that's all that matters. leave their communities: There is no indication that anyone is threatening any community, out of every 1,000,000 people there are 1 or 2 criminals, regardless of the geography they come from. But because the middle east has oil the US has been sensationalizing the middle eastern criminals and invading them (resulting in more criminals from the families that have been murdered, understandably).

There is a difference. It's right there in the label, "Muslims". That can be good and/or bad and/or both. It is a difference. I'm not demonizing anyone.

It's an interesting forecast nonetheless - just like the predictions that Vancouver will become Hongcouver.

The label doesn't define the individual. I rest my case.

If the shoe fits, then it fits. It doesn't mean it's your shoe, or you want to wear it. Sometimes the label is appropriate.

I am a Canadian white male. That doesn't define me - and it also does. That doesn't limit me - and also does. It's just a descriptive label, for all the pros and cons attached.

Words mean things.
