Canada is a Christian country and the muslim community must denounce Islam and be Canadain or leave. No one wants this country to look like Europe. There are good muslims and you can tell who they are. They are the ones that want to fit in to Canadas values. I would gladly protect any muslim that wishes to truely become a Canadian. Guess who I would have to protect them from? It is not Canadians they fear but muslims.

what ever happened to the good ole Christians like come on people are we really that dam stupid these days moder canadians dont know anything

Canada sounds identical to Australia except the weather is warm here not cold I think I'd say Canadian people I prefer but than America has everything available which can be a good thing or a bad thing thoughts from melbourne

And remember guys, Canadians are the Good Guys! SCARY!!!!

Always. The blame pointed at us TRUE Canadians. The fear comes from not knowing which of you are good or bad. Don't blame Harper. I watched a group of you downtown demanding blasphemy against Mohammad be made illegal. HERE, in Canada. You people are sick. Go home

canadian racism is nothing like good ole' merica

I would very much like the muslims to tell us real Canadians what contributions that they are making to our country as a whole. How are they making life in Canada better? How are they bringing stability and growth to our country? They spend time teaching their silly little book to the people in their flock but nothing about Canada, our values, our hopes and aspirations for the country. The silly little book does nothing to further the common good of Canada. It only forwards the wants of the muslim community.\nAnd finally, religion is the bane of intellectual thought. No one and I mean no one, can know about the mind of a god that does not exist.

our fear is what they want, thats why they blow up innocents and cut off heads, they have no respect for life so killing their radicals does nothing....we need to start bombing mosques , they chop off a canadians head we bomb a random mosque, they kill ten with a suicide vest then we bomb 10 mosques, they do a major attack against us or kill our children the good fucking bye mecca,combine that strategy with a propaganda campaign explaining why their mosques keep exploding and i am willing to bet they start acting like the religion of peace they claim to be

Probably the only thing i liked about harper. \nHe actually protected Canada from the bad type immigrants (there are good too). \nHe made a law making companies hire Canadians FIRST and if they really cant find someone they can hire immigrants. \nHe also lowered the quota of immigrants coming in every year to a reasonable amount that we can actually handle...\n... I am actually not a harper supported believe it or not and voted for Trudeau but tbh Harper does have some things right. Very few things but yea.

many old stock Canadians do not want this in Canada...more foreigners...more people from another planet to get used to....more multi culturism being shoved down our throats...old Canada is slipping away fast...thanx to Justin and others like him who came before. I ask the white liberals ...how much multi culturism is to much?  ive been noticing that wherever I go in Vancouver, to a mall, coffee shop, walking down a busy street iam a mirority. is this good? I give it another 50yrs u will not recognize this country

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.

GOOD FEEL THE FEAR. ISLAM CREATES THAT FEAR IN ALL CANADIANS. \nASSIMILATE our culture and our values, keep your customs THAT DO NOT CONFLICT with CANADIAN VALUES. Those that do, do not belong. Just like those that are anti-Canadian - get out.

I feel very sorry and worried for Canadian as your new PM loves immigrants! I foresee more mosques building up in the near future and they will pushed for sharia law. Good luck to you guys and hope God save Canada. Oh, your new PM wants to legalized marijuana???!!! What on earth was he thinking but hey he won the premiership so obviously Canada love him!

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

Looking at the comments below, I have to say, good job Harper. Turning Canadians against Canadians. Stirring the pot of racism. Lifting the wet rocks under which the racist xenophobic cretins that are usually shunned from society can now crawl into everyday life and feel empowered. ABC - Anyone But Conservatives. Let's go Justin Trudaeu, make your father proud.

As a older Canadian born and bred, but now in Europe because of marriage, I can see things farther toward the wall than most of you perhaps in Brandon, Thunder Bay, Charlottetown, Whitby, Kamloops, Red Deer, etc. This is extremely dangerous. A few muslims are o.k., as they may assimilate to Canadian values of 'PEACE, ORDER, and GOOD GOVERNMENT'. Yet most do not wish to assimilate, only to remain who they are, ungrateful of the bounty Canada offers them, and holding values against those our country has always promulgated. We have separation of church and state in Canada, and fought very hard for it, with a history of bloody wars in Europe to show for it. It is repulsive how we are allowing a bleeding of immigrants into our country who do not believe in our basic creed. This is not racial. This is not hate-based or prejudice. It is simply defending our creed as a country, from wherever you are, and whomever you are. Canada is worth defending. Where are the feminists on this? Why are you not defending Canada is this debate?

We are peace loving Canadians. Let us send Orthodox Muslims back to where they belong, as humanely as possible. Saudi Arabia is a good destination and they love it.
