There are a lot of things that we have not put into law, because they are covered by common sense. If a Muslim woman goes into a shop and makes a purchase It is reasonable for the shop keeper to want to see their face, after all a large robe can hide a lot of shop lifted goods.. We can make that law if it becomes necessary, so a person must comply with the law and not claim that their religious law is greater. Trouble with the Muslim religion is that it is a political system within a religion.. Just think of all the wrong that was done in the name of Christianity, we have learnt from that, now the Muslims have to learn the same lesson.

Islam, the only religion in the world that is not safe to criticize. For that reason, Islam Must be criticized. You must be willing to die for freedom of speach, just like the millions who died fighting Naziism and Facism.

My personal thought about the women in this video, good reason they cover their faces, they are butt ugly! That guy with the long beard, I can recommend him a very good Sicilian barbershop, close shave I have issues with what is going on in Canada, the fact I didn't vote for Primister Deerintheheadlights makes me all the more angry, as I feel justified to speak out against the Liberals. I didn't sign up for this. Rushing in 25k more refugees is crazy. I am concerned about the security issues, and the fact the refugees will drain even more tax dollars away from our already fragile economy. Just thinking out loud, what benefit do these refugees have coming to Canada, none. They will live a life of welfare and eventual poverty. Some very few may prosper, and others will turn to crime. I can't see 25k refugees coming to the GTA to work on the railways and build subways or doing construction work. I can't see the refugee women working at anything more than Tim Hortons, if they are even allowed to do so, based on their religion. I have seen it, I live it everyday. Someone, please prove me wrong?

Hmm of course its a concern... must muslims are peaceful yeah.. but they wont do a damn thing while their not so peaceful brothers will feel strong enough to start forcing you to be like them. \nWhy are they growing? how about this one reason for a starter, because their spiritual leaders keeps on making great speeches on how they need to make more babies and that eventually they will take over from within, that is in arabic of course... in English you will almost always only hear about peace and love...so yeah... a small example from 1min search\nhttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3240295/Imam-tells-Muslim-migrants-breed-children-Europeans-conquer-countries-vows-trample-underfoot-Allah-willing.html

As a multi generational Canadian, I don't really care whether they cover their face or not. That's their choice. During my life I've seen all these different forms of conservative dress from catholic nuns, to Hutterites to Mennonites and these people are just part of the mix. What this is designed to do is to create a barrier between themselves and the larger society which is fine. I would never interact with one of these woman ever because the thin flimsy barrier makes it clear that she is not interested in talking to anyone for any reason and again this is fine. If she was with a man I would talk only with the man and completely ignore her and if she was with a male child I would talk to the male child, not to her. I don't normally chat with women who are strangers other than now and then in a supermarket line or whatever. This face thingy frees me from the need of chitchat small talk and I'm good with that. In any case we would have absolutely nothing in common.

While I understand the anxiety the Muslim woman in the video feels, her accent is as Canadian as it can be which tells me she probably was born in Canada or came here as an infant. She's obviously had enough time to assimilate. She either has or hasn't. If she has, she's being discriminated against for no other reason than that she's Muslim, which speaks to a mindset that is being espoused by Stephen Harper. When your leader says the things he's saying it doesn't speak well of the country. It would be more honest if he blocked all immigration of Muslims to Canada, but then the Muslims would really have a case if other nationalities were allowed in. Given Canada's small population they're kind of stuck.

People need to educate themselves rather than expect the media to tell the truth about Islam. If anyone is wondering about how violence became associated with Islam they need only to look at the origins and the early spread of Islam--it's success was dependent on violence and fear. If more westerners knew the truth about Islam they would reject it more vehemently. If more Muslims started thinking rationally about their belief system they would turn away from Islam. There was a good reason for the Crusades and Christian-predominate cultures shouldn't feel ashamed at this history. Perhaps we need a new Crusade.

They don't get along with anyone, not even there own kind. If they turned all of Canada into an Islamic state they would still kill each other. This is not a religion of peace at all. Look up what is happening all over the world it's just a click away. For some strange reason Justin supports this. He is just as nuts as they are. Bring back the crusades.

this 'muslim women' not wearing nikab is so full of shit its not even funny. why is indonesia and malyasia islamic countries. did muslims go there and start wars, NO. these asians accepted the religion because of their research and analysis of authentic textual evidence. spain was a muslim country for years and those years in history contained some of the best times for civil justice in that region. the reason she's not covering her hair probably has to do with the fact that arabic is not even her first language and if you put a gun to this chicks head and told her to recite surat al faitha (something muslims suppose to say 17 times per day) she couldnt do it in a million years. this same woman also said in the interview that the sixth pillar of islam is jihad\nin fundementalism and thats a lie. the sixth pillar of islam is considered to be al kadr (believe in predistination) and the fact that this ignorant woman had the call to go on national televison and speak about islam like she actually knew or understood anything is dispicable because non of the shit that this stupid bitch said in the interview was factually correct about the religion , so why don't you get the actual facts citynews you bunch of dusters and stop airing fear mongering macivalian style tatics to slowly rip away human rights to freedom of self expression to prodominately new immigrant canadians. these fresh immigrants have been through enough with out you rich good looking assholes shitting all over them. you anti-islam people are dicks

an update on the religion of peace\n\nJust yesterday (13/10/2015); a church in the village Sumber Makmur, Aceh, Indonesia was burnt to the ground by an angry mob of the religion of peace. The reason for it's burning was the church (along with some 10 other church) has not earned the permit to operate from the local government authorities. After the burning, it was reported that some 7000 christian went seeking refuge to the neighboring province of Northern Sumatra. \n\nQuestion: if there are 7000 christians in the vicinity, why can't they have 10 church to pray in?\n\nMay real peace be with all of us

There a reason why Islam is growing not just Canada, all Europe, America, Australia so on because it the truth, same message intact from Adam(pbuh) to Muhammad(pbuh)\n\nISLAM MAKES SENSE

Tolerance is not a one way street. Canadians (and other westerners) should wake up and realize that, and also form a basic understanding about the evils of islam, that muslims stand for.\nMany douchebags and pseudo-liberals of the Ben Affleck kind, will go to great lengths to defend islam and muslims while knowing absolutely nothing about that religion or its followers, with the only purpose being to selfishly display how PC they are. A true liberal person will value their acquired freedoms and privileges, and not be tolerant of the intolerant. Furthermore, real leaders should not be afraid to bring these points up, backing them up with hard evidence (not just hear-say or opinions), for the purpose of protecting civilised society: so that muslims and non-muslims all can understand why islam is incompatible with western civilisation. If muslims are offended by any of that, then that offence is brought on by themselves. PC has no place here.\n\nHere are some reasons why islam is incompatible with civilised society:\n1. Muslims consider the quran to be the perfect book and their prophet to be the perfect man, who's behaviour is to be aspired to, so perfect that any imagery of him does him great injustice and is forbidden. Other than being plain stupid, this in itself doesn't affect civilised society much (except free speech when drawing cartoons), but this does becomes a critical point in combination with the next points:\n2. A perfect man does not marry a 6 year old girl and then f*ck her when she's 9. But that's what their perfect prophet did and they know it, often justifying it as being in a different time. Well no time ever has been ok for a 50+ year old man to f*ck a 9 year old. \n3. In this religion that muslims consider perfect, apostasy is to be punished by death (quran 4:89). This combined with the fact that muslims consider their religious doctrines more important than man-made (western) law is something that makes them incompatible with civilised society. Of course they benefit from the civilised society, but not vice versa. \n4. Then there are the many verses in the quran that order muslims to fight non-muslims (and specifically jews), order death for adultery and homosexual behaviour, etc. Just search and you'll find as there are way too many to list here. Try here for example: http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/\n5. Islam is an extremely controlling religion, it intervenes in everything aspect of human life, even as far as with which hand is to be used for eating and which for wiping off after taking a dump. It also declares itself to be the only true and last religion leaving no space for other religions or atheism. This is what makes it such a totalitarian and fascist religion.\n\nMuslims won't deny these points I listed, but they often will try to evade addressing them. \nToo keep a long story short: if you are really a tolerant/liberal person, then you stand your ground and stand for civilised principles, and don't tolerate or defend islam like some traitorous PC pseudo-liberal Ben Aslick sort of character.

what religion is this,mutilate women ,kill them for no reason ,they are both stupid they should go live in arab countries where they and their ignorance can survive.!!

covering your face hides you from legal view; it should not be allowed. you don't even know if it is a man or women under that burqah. stopping someone in a car makes them unidentifiable. they should show the face for legal reasons in public.

Toronto is over run. One of the reasons I no longer live there. 'Toronto the Good' is now Toronto the Trash Bin. \nI'm not a fan of Harper, but I will vote for him because of his stance on muslims and immigration.

Maybe we could educate them with science or we could challenge Allah to a wagon pulling contest......hmmm his wagon isn't moving....guess he took a nap. Honestly it bothers the fuck out of me that grown men and women believe in Santa Claus!!! That is like spitting in the face of men and women who spent their lives and some who even experimented on themselves in order for us to live in such comforts. And what kind of life is faith without reason? Like sails with out wind. Honestly 2015 should see the extinction of religion and all its hate, its ignorance and its disregard for a future of learning.

What makes Muslim is a fast growing religion in the world is men allow having four wives. Codger Imam can remarry with the young woman whenever one of his wife die so he can have Sexual intercourse with the tight vagina all his life that why they fight to the dead to spread to many nations for this reason not only their God.

more white guilt propaganda bullshit. Im not a racist so don't brand me one, what I want is true equality which means that I'm not going to pander to minorities for the sole reason that they are minorities. The incessant complaining about stereotypes towards blacks is ridiculous, all races have their own stereotypes. If someone saw a well dressed black person heading into an office building they wouldnt think twice but if someone saw a young black kid dressed like a gangster,smoking dope and acting shady theyre going to think suspiciously of you and there is nothing wrong with that. stop making it about race when it has a lot more to do with how you behave and act. The drive to get more black people in positions over authority for the sake of diversity is itself racist, the best person for the job is the person who should be in office if 8/10 judges are white and they are in fact the best people for the job then their should be no desire to change such things, we need to evaluate the character of a person and not their race. So much bullshit in this video it would take me hours to pick it apart.

GOOD, Muslims should live in fear, We have to live in fear because of Muslims. \n\nThey wear the mask for our own good, To cover those smashed mugs. \n\nAny Muslim who lives in the West yet sympathizes with ISIS need to be exposed and stoned to death. These are people who have no reason to waste our resources on their pathetic useless lives. If they hate us so bad why do they come here? (west) Is it because being Christian nations blessed us with the ability to create all that we have? While they worship a pedophile who lived by the sword? My only question is why do you live here when you know your not welcomed?

Women should wear what they want. However, there are signs on Bank doors saying 'do not wear bike helmets' yet these Muslim women can have only their eyes showing and get away with it for religious reason. They might as well walk into the Bank wearing a balaclava. They are intimidating, you are removing their human features thus making them threatening and suspicious. There should be exceptions, like when and where you can wear them if we cannot remove it completely at least.

I have met some Muslims in my life.. But Islam scares people for a reason.

The reason it should be banned is because the fucking person is wearing a mask EVERYWHERE! If anyone else walked into a store with a mask on there face they would be arrested.

Muslims are the reason for growing anti islamic sentiments all over the world. They want to be different. They demand respect but give none.

There is no need for Islam in Canada.\n\nSince Canadian laws are superior to Islamic laws, Islam becomes redundant, and the only reason people cling to it is out of arrogance and cultural chauvinism.

Blacks arent the problem in canada as much as it is in the US. There was no KKK here. The people that do deserve the knowledge is the Aboriginals. The government treated them bad and so did the churches. They are what the Canadian government should be addressing and not so much the blacks as they are just as equal as a white man in Canada now. Jobs for the government 1 year have to hire more minorities then another year females and what not. I cant speak for what it is like in the US but where I live blacks are treated the same as whites. There are some arabs that think they are the gangsters and hate white peopl for ni reason. I asked them why they hates whites so much and they said its because they are pussys. That aint no damn reason. If you disagree please enlighten me with your knowledge. And if you live in the US dont comment saying you know more because i doubt you were even taught a single thing about canada in school. But if you do know something please teach me.

the reason why peaple hate them is simple they immigrate in a contry and they  start want change everything they doesnt like they can not just chut up and beacame normal Citizen  and that why everybody hate them

Why are these people moving into countries like Canada, the U.S., the U.K., Australia,\nEurope, etc. etc.?? Make no mistake about it!! The reason for them moving into Western countries is FOR CONQUEST!! Fundamental 'muslims' believe the ENTIRE WORLD IS GOING TO BECOME MOSLEM!!!

its easy. if muslims fear about their safety they should stop supporting islamist agenda. if they support views islam promotes, they will always be hated in west and for a just reason. islam is hateful religion, and when you take it seriously you find yourself supporting terrorism.

According to the Sharia law:\n\n•  Criticizing or denying any part of the Quran is punishable by death.\n•  Criticizing or denying Muhammad is a prophet is punishable by death.\n•  A Muslim who becomes a non-Muslim is punishable by death.\n•  A non-Muslim who leads a Muslim away from Islam is punishable by death.\n•  A non-Muslim man who marries a Muslim woman is punishable by death.\n•  A man can marry an infant girl and consummate the marriage when she is 9 years old.\n•  Girls' clitoris should be cut (per Muhammad's words in Book 41, Kitab Al-Adab, Hadith 5251).\n•  A man can unilaterally divorce his wife but a woman needs her husband's consent to divorce.\n•  A man can beat his wife for insubordination.\n•  Testimonies of four male witnesses are required to prove rape against a woman.\n•  A woman who has been raped cannot testify in court against her rapist(s).\n•  The list goes on.\n\nI would not want to live under such law, and it is happening in Canada now. Tell me it is reasonable, and you want to obey it. But hey, if you want to be slave, it is not my business, but please keep it in your home.

The only reasons They won't take up arms is because there is not enough Muslims in Canada yet,numbers = soldiers, fucken wake up!

what's so bad with denying a child an education, \nvetting her friends, \nmarrying her off to a man thrice her age, \nsticking a black fabric cloth-bag over her head the minute she hits puberty. \nDeny her health care & beat her for the slightest of reasons. \nIndeed what's so bad with backward more akin to the dark ages restrictive & sometimes horrific sharia law. \nOk if you're a man I suppose. \nBe perfectly fine for men. \nWell I've got news for you. \nMen CAN cook too!

And two guys kissing gets directly to jail. Good job. This is my main reason why Shari'a can buzz off. \n\nWe tolerate you, do the same for us. Adapt to out culture, or come back where you come from.

There is only one god worthy of worshiping. He is the most merciful, generous, all-knowing and all-wise. If you where to ask him for forgiveness, not associate him with anything else, praise and thank him with sincerity, he will forgive you. This life is like a journey, your born, married, have a baby, die. People have been there and done that. Ask your self the true reason of your existence (is it to have a big house, car...)Worship god ALONE and seek refuge with him. He is truly unique. Peace!

Are you serious?\nFirstly when you encounter information you do not like you just dismiss it as fraudulent without any evidence or reasoning - please provide your evidence that this is false\nAlso, you think that Muslim people do not decompose???\nHonestly, you need to read a book without numbered paragraphs and learn something factual instead of thinking the same as people 1400 yrs ago - you do realise that we have progressed from the time of Mohammed right?\nTime to join the modern world bloke!

Your wrong. You stated that we had a 99% DNA similarity. The raison we say that we are animals is because of people like you who might be a little to hairy. AGAIN, WE DO NOT SHARE SIMILAR DNA. We have physical characteristics of animals (ex: the abilities to keep our blood temperatures at certain lever) Islam is about peace, love, equality, justice, freedom, happiness, reason and purpose. You have no reason to exist, people like you live, eat, shit, money money, sex, drugs, party and die.

Please provide your scientifically proven evidence that Humans are not part of the evolutionary cycle and provide reasonable explanation why all life would evolve and not us - that makes no sense\nIt only does if you maintain a primitive, supernatural view of the world and think we are something special in cosmic terms\nWe are just the most intelligent species to have evolved on this planet, claiming otherwise is childlike fantasy that we have a special place in the Universe, its bigger than us!

This is just insane. So what is the reason to your existence exactly ? ... You live, you look around like an animal and die?

the only reason so many immagrants are here is because of the damage done by the british empire so..... maybe stop acting like britain is this amazing kind place

It is a very good point you make, there is an argument that if the German people had stood up to Hitler then we would not have experienced one of the largest genocides in history but Muslims are often unfairly blamed for actions that are not their own\nThe media does focus on the extremist element but the issue is that if people from a non-Muslim background try to intervene it is labelled as racism which is part of the reason that the politicians are so soft handed with Muslim extremists

This is reason why i left islam, because of their behavior

Muslims have your own army and armed forcess? And where is that? Certainly not in London. And you don`t need to be insulting for no reason. Your parents should`ve tought you some manners.

Oh please, muslims can't even get along among theirselves.\n\nYou really think that if the whole world followed islam their would be peace? Just look at the middle east to see sunni's and shia's killing eachother.\n\nYou are a deluded, religious zealout, and your kind is hated with reason.

Failed states index!!! LOL you idiot. You English are so stupid, believe everything you read... these indexs were obviously made to stir tensions between the good muslims and you lot, these indexs are anti-islam propaganda.\n\nDo not believe everything you read my friend, anyhow the reasoning for some of the countries downfall is because they are at war / are poor economically. In a few years they will be BACK!

It's not a backward religion my friend, Islam is the newest major religion. This is further evidence showing Islam is the truth. It was founded after Christianity & Judaism. So what are you talking ABOUT?\n\nMurder is acceptable for EVIL punishemnts - the U.S is also pro-murder but do you complain about them? No. I thought not you're just a stupid non-believer. The average Muslim doesn't approve of killings innocents?\n\nI came to the UK for many reasons. I haven't got time to discus them, Moron.

>Wealth doesn't equal happiness.\nAnd uhh, addendum, neither does a lack of natural disasters. ;) I heard Dhaka (capital) is one of the worst-placed cities in the world, next to a big ass mountain, prone to flooding, earthquakes, and apparently close to a volcano. Still, there are happy people in Dhaka. Most immigration is done in the name of capitalism, so you can be hired as cheap labour as you'll expect lower wages. One of the many reasons it's bad for both immigrants and natives.

The only reason other religions aren't stuck in the Stone Ages anymore is because they can't possibly reconcile their Stone Age beliefs so they change and reduce their mythologies. If everyone actually believed in and followed their religions truly, they would all be fundamentalists and that's part of why they need to GO.

Well i was asking because I have read your Quran a few times\n\nThe thing about the Quran is, its a list of do's and don'ts, (a book of laws). The laws are listed, and what people don't realise is that Islam is actually a form of government, it is politics, law and order all rolled into one religion.\n\nFor this reason you can compare Islam to other forms of governance like Communism and Democracy.\n\nHowever secular muslims like Attaturks followers reject most clause's in Islam.\n\n

My country is one of the better examples of Islamic law though still flawed due to national problems and namely international relations and the paranoia surrounding the USA for good reason (CIA Coup and 25 years of USA backed dictatorship and opression)\n\nNow about the reports, understand that western media thives on shock media, they thrive on putting things out of context and exagerating them.\nYes those things happen with Muslims as they happen with everyone else, but it's not Islamic.

Oh nice, they find a way to shift the blame onto the white people. There is a reason why white people are moving out from those places.

YOUR AN IDIOT... YOU EXPECT TO REASON WITH MEN \n```` \nWHO SHOVE THEIR HEADS UP ANOTHER MANS ASS \n```` \n5 TIMES A DAY...? \n```` \nWHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING? & subbed
