Thank you for your video but I completely disagree with the idea of total assimilation. No one should feel the need to totally assimilate with a different culture. If I like my culture, obviously that's what makes me happy but that doesn't mean that I don't want to assimilate. That means that I like to hold on to my own values, morals and beliefs which feel right for me. I don't want to assimilate and become a totally different person. I would feel lost if I do that. I'm fine with my own values and if I feel a huge disconnection between my values and their then of course I would move somewhere else. However, most people end up spreading out roots, family, children ect.. and that would make it almost impossible to leave so they lead a life of just survival.

Now try going to China, or south Africa while being white and see if its any different. Most likely not. The difference is assimilation to a hosting country's culture and traditions. These three gentlemen seem like good dudes but discrimination exists EVERYWHERE. Stop cherry picking and you will see IT less.

Lovely Canada is truly regressing to ancient times! \n\nHow many masked women will it take for the “progressives” in Canada to finally see that they are dragging their beautiful modern culture back to a meaner time in history! \n\nNon-assimilating people from the most intolerant Muslim countries, where genuine toxic masculinity reigns and rules women like they are property...how is that a future for Canada! \n\nCanadian women aren’t pouring into Pakistan in huge numbers demanding they be allowed to wear bikinis at every swimming pool ! \n\nMuslims dare to play the victim and they feel entitled to tell Canadian Civilization how it should be! \nWho are they to lecture Canada on Human Rights!!!!!

WELL I AM SORRY TO HAVE TO TELL YOU ALL THAT CANADA LIKE EVERY OTHER COUNTRY THAT HAS ALLOWED THE INVASION OF THEIR COUNTRIES BY THE ISLAMIC PEOPLE, YOU ALL HAVE LOST YOUR COUNTRY, YOUR IDENTITY YOUR FREEDOM AND MOST OF ALL THE FUTURE OF YOUR CHILDREN. MUSLIMS DO NON MIGRATE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY TO ASSIMILATE OR LIVE A WESTERN WAY OF LIFE, THEY MIGRATE ON OUR EXPENSES TO INVADE AND TRASNFORM ALL CHRISTIAN COUNTRIES INTO THA SAME SHITHOLETHEY HAVE LEFT BEHIND. IT WILL NOT BELONG THAT YOU, YOUR CHILDREN AND YOUR GRANDCHILDREN WILL BE FORCED TO OBEY THE LAW AND RULES OF THE MOHAMADANS! I CAN ONLY WISH YOU GOOD LUCK FOR YOUR FUTURE, BUT IF YOU ALL DON`T WAKE UP AND FIGHT FOR YOUR FREEDOM NOW BEFORE THE MUSLIMS BECOME A MAJORITY YOU WILL NOT AVE A COUNTRY TO FIGHT FOR VERY SOON

There is a reason why immigrants have historically changed their names upon arrival to their new country. If you are going to immigrate and you want to assimilate you may want to consider changing your name to something that sounds like the culture you are trying to assimilate to. Oh, wait...was that not a politically correct thing to say?

Sounds like some folk have an inferiority complex . \n\nThis is sensationalist reporting . Retailers , home owners etc have every right to check . \n\nIt all stems from a culture of dishonesty arising out of 3rd worlders , trying to assimilate with first worlders combined with undeniable prison demographics .

A Canadian Immigration judge will notice immediately two main things about this guy: 1- No English having lived 15 years in the US & 2 - No specialized skilled labor or higher education. If he ever gets asylum granted, it will be thanks to his kids who will eventually assimilate unlike he ever did and because Canada needs to grow its population that is among the lowest in the world at #43 with 11 per 1000. The countries on that list with lower birthrates than Canada are mostly small islands or tiny countries like Liechtenstein. Why? Because of the high cost of living and raising a child, #1 country is Japan.

..what the F... unbeliveble ...that the exemple of people that dont deserve to stay in our country and around the world,should take all of them and ship them in a country in asia...and now in 2019 they tried to look like victim ,muslim islamic are manipulator they dont want to assimilate to our culture ,dont be blind wake-up we can not let muslim islamic continue their plan and take our law again us, every canadians that came here for our culture, law and lifestyle ,dont want muslim islamic lifestyle for those who want this muslim islamic lifestyle take a plane or a boat and go to a muslim country in asia ,period.

I grew up in BRAMALEA, now incorporated with Brampton. BRAMALEA was an idyllic community made up primarily of Brits, European, and African-Canadians. Then Justin’s Dad (Pierre) opened the floodgates of immigration in the ‘70’s to ensure his re-election while transforming Canada into a Socialist Society (Socialized “Free” Health Care paid for by mammoth taxes on the middle class) while promoting “Multiculturalism” as the new Canadian Utopia. In his later years, while close to death, Pierre declared that “Multiculturalism DOESN’T WORK!” And, guess what? Neither does “Free” Healthcare!” As each culture swelled, they felt as though they didn’t need to assimilate. When I return to Canada/Brampton to visit family, I’m disgusted! The Indian residents (who Now comprise about 90% of BRAMLADESH’s population) do NOT look after their housing/property. The older/original neighborhoods where I grew up (well-cared for homes with manicured lawns, lush green-belts with pathways connecting neighborhoods and parks) now borders on slum-like conditions. It’s sad and downright depressing when I visit. All of my high school friends have fled the dilapidated area, and no wonder! Canada’s lax immigration laws, failed “Multiculturalism” and Socialist welfare system have all destroyed Canadian culture AND their middle class (strangled by immense taxation). I was fortunate to have grown up in the BRAMALEA of old, but I am so blessed to have escaped when I did! ??

He lived 15 YEARS IN THE U.S. AND STILL CAN'T SPEAK ENGLISH!!!!!!!! How about no more crutches like ... press #1 for Spanish and #2 for English or having to employ translators and spend extra money on bilingual signs and paperwork!!! Why come here if all you do is refuse to assimilate. People of the country you are illegally going to shouldn't have to change for you ... YOU should change to be in that country. Sorry but this is just another self inflicted sad story.

Those women masks are so distracting and creepy looking. At least show your face muslim women. Only people with bad intentions or hiding some disabilities on their faces would cover their face like that in a western or free society. You can have more dignity by assimilating to the western world or you might prefer being rejected and segregated.

multicuulturism isn't the problem in Britain for Sikhs, hindus, Budhists, jews or virtually any religious or cultural group you can think of. All of these groups are completely integrated into British society ,and for them and with them Multiculturism works. The problem is with Islam which is a monoculturist monotheistic culture that doesn't mix, doesn't assimilate but does everything it can to introduce creeping Sharia law and Islamic social structures into the host country to creat Islamic conditions wherever they can and have the expectation that we will be assimilated in time into their culture .This is the essential imperative of Jihad which they couldn't separate themselves from if they tried.And in this ,they are a little like the Borg. How can they be expected to assimilation into a pluralist culture is absolutely unislamic it cannot happen don't blame muticulturism ,its not the problem, the pressing problem is the MONOCULTURISM  of Islam. Don't throw the baby out with the bath water.Instead throw out Islam send as many muslims as you can back to their country of origin and tear down the mosques.And then the rest of us genuine multiculturists can get on just fine together and become even more unified even more free even more fearless and less divided now that we have expelled the toxic element once and for all.

Ironically he's been in the USA and Canada and hasn't learned English? \nSeems like if you truly wanted to assimilate you would leaned the English language? \nIts shameful how the Prime minister of Canada shamed Trump on immigration on international TV,\nBut now that it's a problem and Canada is doing the same things the USA has done, your sure dont hear all the snowflakes liberals yelling and threatening Canada or its politicians.

Media needs to stop painting these people as Victims\nThey knew that would eventually will happen since the moment they crossed illegally. Why they pretend to be victims once they get caught????? The victim in reality is the legitimate American citizens. Please tell the true, You all know you have done break the law when you cross the border and now you got caught. So do not play the poor victim, you know what would happen if you got found. 20 years plus and do not learn english.. Dey do not like to assimilate but they paint themselves as the victims. Give me a break PLEASE.

Why does he feel entitled to being accepted without doing anything to deserve it? Him not knowing any English is not a good look after 15 years of being in the US. Looks like he put zero effort into assimilating

Some legitimately don't feel comfortable near covered folks.. but our fears don't matter, as long as they get to be fashionable/uncovered around each other at home/among themselves. Should it not be the other way around.. practice your religion at home and the religious areas and be a bit more assimilated when out with the rest? Seems like there's a lot of double standards along with the many other issues.

People that are unable to assimilate the culture of the country where they are immigrating, better just stay at their home country. Live the way you like respecting your religion, but don't go to a new country and try to impose on others  your own values.

All people who do not assimilate must be deported. As well as just stop immigration of Muslims all together. We are at full war. The people who controlled our countries back in WW2 understood that the citizens were number one priority and stopped all immigration of any ethnic background like Germans and Japanese. \n\nBut not all citizens were protected like the Japanese Canadians Americans and so on. The governments back then were very strict and careful. And did they have as much deaths of terrorism? No they did not!\n\nIslamic ideology is one of the most sickest and most anti-freedom things you can find anywhere. And its not a religion of peace. The peaceful majority are irrelevant.

Maybe immigrants of colour would have an easier time if they actually acted like immigrants of past to this country, the Italians, Portuguese etc they came to Canada and they didn't ask for handouts like the ones who come these days from India, Sri Lanka etc who get on welfare. In the past they came with the intention of actually becoming Canadians and assimilating, the ones now come and all they want to do is create their own little old countries here in Canada.

These people give their loyalty to their religion and not their country. Dangerous. If you don't like being stared at then do the tiniest bit of assimilation and remove the veils and head coverings. Everyone different gets stared at. Get a thicker skin like everyone else and stop trying to change western cultures to suit you or go live where your way is the norm. Simple.

The problem is that most people who like immigrants dont understand the concept of assimilation. I have no problem with immigrants who assimilate, but when we have so many illegals who enjoy the benefits of the American constitution, without learning English, who dont learn American History or economics, dont pay taxes and then send whatever money they make out of country. Of Course we should kick these people out. they should never be here in the first place. People not willing to assimilate should never be let into any country.

I used to be a very liberal person for most of my life and tolerant of other cultures and religious faith, like many others I may add.\n However my tolerance is wearing somewhat thin, like many others I may add again, after hearing the same old opinions coming from Muslims repatriated in western societies. \n They come into our cultures on mass and never assimilate into ours, but create their own little pockets of cultural being within our national borders.\n We hear time and again how the indigenous populist must be accepting of them, even though very few are accepting of our culture, using an analogy it's akin to inviting a stranger into your home and give them a safe place to live, food, money and all items that go along with it, and the next thing their sat on your favourite chair with your remote in their hand, even going to bed with your wife!\n We need to wear our head covering it's our right they chant, OK then, afford the same favours to us in your country, let my partner wear her bikini when she's walking down the road, let us drink alcohol, build Christian churches, you get where I'm going with this.\n If it's so great there why do you choose to live here? All the customs you seek are there if you feel that uncomfortable here? \nGiving Sewden as an example, there are now 180 Muslim 'ghettos' not the same you get in the US as the accommodation and welfare is quite generous there, a lot of them are 'No-go' areas even for the police, they mostly hate the Swedish people, a criminal element there will only rob off the swedes, and rape has gone up tenfold committed mostly by the Muslims, and it's only going to get worse as they are accepting another forty thousand of them, even though they have a crisis of a shortage of housing. \n If you ever needed an example of when your political parties have totally lost the plot, and are insanely progressive and what your country could become, then use Sweden as a barometer as to what your country could also decay into.\n The Muslims hate use, hate our freedoms, and just think of us as 'infidels' , multiculturalism has proved on this scale that it does not work, unless immigrants come with the mindset that they assimilate into the culture they are heading for, not the other way around.

Britain is not Taliban, stop forcing the laws that are Shariya in origin. The so called Muslim leaders, on news seem appalled, but in real, I am sure they are supporting and funding these jobless Muslim.\n\nPolice and Military actions should be take against illegals like these, heck police should also associate with Neo Nazi's and Skin Heads with the to drive these people out.\nI am an Indian who has lived in the UK. While my community of Hindus and Sikhs have assimilated into the British culture..
