I don't blame the boy for carrying his kirpan he's simply believing in his religion and also i Don't blame the cop either he's simply doing his job in that moment of situation people who doesn't know about it they're scared, they had to call the cop so the boy is also at fault he's in a foreign country he should keep his religion and his believing to himself not to show it on public

Showing their true colours if a Muslim man talks to a lady of thier religion will they leave.... atleast we the Muslims very disciplined and humanity people this shows Islam

Is wrong what is wrong with what he is saying? It is true that Muslims and Arabs they do go to western countries and then they push their religion and beliefs on us and then they say death to America death to the western world so how do you not see that is wrong? This guy said absolutely nothing wrong, Land let Land stop pushing your beliefs on other people

There is good and bad people in every religion but to judge everyone based on their religion that’s just hate and ignorance

I think in all honesty people are just getting fed up and what ever feud countries have with each other should stay in their countries. I don’t want to live in a country full of different religions and beliefs. I just want to live in a peaceful society. Racism is getting worse because of unwanted culture that is destroying our society and our own culture ?

That’s the thing…. In Canada, you don’t have to be strategic about where you move. Most places are welcoming. We still have some racism and issues, but I know many people of different colours and cultures that have never experienced racism in Canada. We allow others to practice whatever religion you want, as long as you don’t hurt other people. We don’t unalive each other over religion or politics. To a Canadian, the United States is not a first world country. It’s where you go to lose your rights and freedoms.

Brampton is Indian Punjabi majority city. India has many religions and cultures but majority in Brampton are from Punjab region of India mostly Sikh and Hindu. For last 2 years, lot of students came from India and most likely they will return to India after studies are done. This is total fault of Canadian government for allowing so many people of same ethnicity, I have no idea how their quota works. I'm an immigrant myself, came here in 1996 but honestly Canada is not what it used to be.

1-Canadian government is not taking any student and temporary workers from India so chill.\n2-Brampton people are mostly punjabis,don’t judge a whole country by one community.\n3-there are lots of churches in India too so don’t feel bad for that statue.Hindu people don’t force their religion on anyone because Hinduism believe in every religion.\n4-Indians are following western culture even in India.\n5-There are lots of refugees who are doing nothing and enjoying taxes benefits \n6-There were lots of fake colleges in GTA who were making money from Indian students that’s why they are doing so much work in tummies and Walmart because they don’t have any college and degrees.some of are going back so be happy.\n7-Everyone is depressed now these days because of inflation.It’s not easy for them to stay away from family and doing lots of struggle you don’t know even.

I felt bad actually for him. ? It's just his religion. In Sikhism they wear these most often. I hope he wears it under his shirt next time. I have lived in Punjab and the people are very friendly and i also love the Sikh religion though am a devoted Christian. I hope they try to understand him. Much love Bhai ji...\nWaheguru ji...❤❤

America, Canada, and many other commonwealth countries are all connected to England are all common lores/laws constitutional countries... one really does not care... what your so called Religions are... and who you believe in, and what your beliefs are, and who your GODS are, and what ever your traditions customs and everything else in your country is... 'i, DO NOT Fucking CARE... one bit.... \n \nYou can be Hundi, a Christian, a Budish, a Muslim, a Catholic, whatever the religions and GODS are... 'i, Do not Give a fuck... \n \nBut when you come into another man country... and you go there to live, then you have to leave everything behind, and follow, comply, conform and obey all the common lores/laws constitutions upon that land and the country as a whole... with the traditions, customs and values and so on... must be abided by at all times... by everyone... no one is special nor are they immune... \n \nIf you do not like the country you moved to... then there is a very simple solution for this... PACK all your shit up... and move back to the country you came from.... you cannot force whatever your Religions is, Whatever your Beliefs are, what ever your Traditions are, your Customs are, what ever it is that you did and lived in your country, it stays there... it done not come into any other country... \n \nSO STOP FORCING any and all of your BULLSHIT RELIGONS CRAP - onto anyone else... there are many good real common lores/laws constitutions in place for theses and many other reasons... and it is thee only lores/law constitution of it people... within that Country... \n \nYou either abide by this... or pack your shit up and leave... simple... \n \nthis is NOT being racists in anyway... as one is mixed raced oneself...

I have left Brampton Though I am Indian but migrated to Canada 40 years ago. And seeing the changes. Sad very sad to see culture changing. We left Indian because of crime and it is following us. Government is not helping Canadians. Very sad. Student don’t even gives seats to elders. They do not respect other religions they think they are perfect and Canadians are foolish. I don’t know what is discrimination. It is discrimination with white. Then these people say Canadian don’t work they are lazy. No government is greedy. Sad sad sad ?

I’m a Iraqi Muslim and I think this is fucked up. This is why we got a bad name. It doesn’t say anything in the Quran about forcing people do do anything they don’t want to. And when you’re living in another country just keep your culture and religion within your household. It doesn’t need to go any further than that.

I'm an Indian immigrant and lived in ON. I drove through Brampton once and I vowed to never go back there again. But you see this is a vicious consequence of declining birth rates in Canada. Christianity is trampled upon along with its values and principles and this is one of the results. The first thing I asked the day I landed was where were all the Canadians? Have they left the planet? \n\nA country needs people and once a certain ethnic population grows in strength and in numbers the landscape is sure to change. Besides, Canada does not demand immigrants assimilate into the culture, instead it's vice versa and it's disappointing. And when you give up Christianity, what do you expect immigrants to embrace? DEI? That's the last thing they will and continue to push their religions. \n\nBesides, what is Hindu and Pakistani? One is a religion and the other is a nationality. You may want to review that data cos something is off if it's categorized in such a manner.

Muslim people are allowed to lie to infidels. \nSharia law should live in Muslim countries. They try to intimidate indigenous or people of a different religion. They should be tackled hard for this hate crime…

I'm an Indian Hindu, and I can proudly say that Sikhs protect people, they don't attack. \nBut on the other hand, I agree that the cops are right. USA is a foreign country so Indians going to USA should align to American rules. \nI also like how calm that dude is, the calmness led to the issue being resolved in a peaceful way\n\nIn USA, if a kirpan is not allowed, then simply don't carry it...religion shouldn't be a priority in today's world. Period !

Immigrants are working for Canada, that's why. It's money. It's not the immigrants fault, its Trudeau's. People around the world will move to where the grass is greener and will bring the culture and religion as well. I don't like the idols being around Canada, it is not compatible to Christian values. It's scary when it comes down to division in religion. Also, housing or living conditions for those who can't afford it, they ended up living in unsafe tiny spaces. Some are so vulnerable. Again, it's not their fault but just like US, it's open borders.

The Canadian government has been selling out Canadian jobs and Canadian pride for over twenty years as an enemy against its own people. LETS WAKE UP ! As the immigrant enemy bare arms in our streets. Sickening.. Non Canadians are respected and handed life on a silver platter while TRUE NORTH CANADIANS are raped of their jobs, homes, pride and nationality and the country we have built, just like the government's did before Hitler. Corrupt and disgusting. WW2 Germany all over again. The inevitable tyranny of the corrupt muslin syndicate (IRGC) will force us to revolution and war as they disrespect us as the infidel and our country for the taking by our corrupt government, police bureaucracy and terrorist religion using our fundamentals and Trudeau Constitution (deliberately designed to destroy being CANADIAN and us used as a weapon against our country and its people. Preparation for war against the criminals ( government and it's corrupt East Indian syndicate) against the True Canadian people. My son could get a job if he was a muslin immigrant with financial support from the corrupt muslin community and our government THE TRUE NORTH CANADIANS ENEMIES

I live in a majority Punjab community that also houses a lot of people from Africa and South East Asia. It also contains a lot of drug addicts and homeless people, mostly white. What I see is non-white people who have grown up during a period of time in which a serious effort was made to destroy the family, the church, patriotism etc. Conservative values essentially. On the other side is a group that has largely maintained their religion, social norms, work ethic etc. and is OBVIOUSLY so much better off, so much more productive and happier. There is a real lesson to be learned here if we have the wisdom to see it. Btw, I am white and I really enjoy living here but it is not hard to see that things could become very difficult if there were, for example, a major rise in unemployment.

Islam is an invented religion based on an invented prophet forcing people into islam by the power of the sword

The west will never treat u as humans.get ur shit together and get united help each other out asians african arabs u all have a rich culture u r respectful people trust me the west is lead by a bunch of religious fanatics that are pretending to be secular just so to keep u away from ur own religion ur own culture and when the time is right for them to steike they will not waste a time to attack u.just build weapon industries,u will need em to defend urselves.the west is not all too powerful but their bluff game is top notch trust mw they arw afraid of u guys that one day u guys will realize that u can fight against these western powers n defeat them aswell thats what they r afraid of n all u have t do is dont give in to fear of the west n thats it.they have nukes so do u they can build war machines so can u.u r 2/3rd of the world total population.

Everyone in the comment section is so confused rn. So lemme clear things out.\nThe knife is actually a religious symbol called kirpan.\nIt’s not the fault of anyone cuz the cop was just not aware and the guy was just following his believes.\nAnd for this one person telling people to get out of the country cuz of the religion GO EDUCATE YOURSELF.

I’m an atheist Canadian. I dated muslims and people of different faiths and used to enjoy your videos… Therefore, respect and compassion goes both ways. You may not agree with the lgbtq community but it’s important for everyone to feel safe. People need to respect everyone but education is key. Everyone deserves to be educated about each other. That’s why I think religion and state should be separate. If you’re unhappy you can leave that’s fine. But there isn’t a perfect place in the world. Accepting others for their beliefs is just as important as others accepting ours. I wish you the best.

I honestly can’t praise Palestinians enough for their courage. They are by far the most tolerant people in history. Anyone else would be fleeing for superficial reasons. This nation has not only changed history but also religion and politics. I love you Palestine. ❤

We should use the same argument for all the religion of peace people coming to OUR land.

You should abide by the rules of the uni or the country you’re in. Guns maybe allowed in that country but if any knife or sharp object hanging like that doesn’t fit into their rule, they have the right to call a cop on you. \n\nIn india the scene is reversed , sikhs wearing kirpan is normal, so they’ll not get arrested but if you have a gun then you’ll be. \n\nSo people just have to understand that different countries and places have different rules and we should follow them when in that country. The religion should never come in the way of

It is bias especially about religion. Americans go to churches. I am Catholic and my church is always full in every mass. I like living in America which people believe in God than in Canada which is absent in God!

Wherever Muslims go there disrespectful and expect people to respect them and their sick ideology they call a peaceful religion

You will never ever see these horrbile scenes in any muslim country even if people are poor .. why ? because Islam has a very important law that you as a muslim have to give 2.5 % of your money every year to poor people who need food or shelter ... moreover , you are incourged to help them in any way you can .. In the other hand / they must help them selves by work and be responsible .. Drugs and alchohol are prohibted , family should stick together .. taking a very good care of women and eldery is so important in our religion ... I feel so much sorry for those who still blind and do not want to open their minds and eyes to see the real truth .. to see where is the human rights realy are !!! ⛔⛔⛔⛔

The most reasons are weather extremely not good and job. As well as the diversity of people come from different countries and different religions are not happy at all

The So Called Muslim Lady shown in the end of the Video don't have proper knowledge about Islam and she is Speaking WRONG against Muslims. We Muslims, We are Taught in our Religion to SPREAD PEACE and LOVE. ISLAM is Against TERRORISM. God commands us in Quran so many times about Love, Mercy and Saving People from Problems etc. If u will find any Verse in Quran speaking about Killing, then that Verse was for Specific People in War for Specific Time in early Era of Islam. Quran Teaches PEACE and MERCY only. \n\nJihad Means Struggle in the Path of God. This Struggle can only be for the GOOD CAUSE.\n\nMuslim Women Wears Hijab because God Commanded in Quran to Wear it, so that Women should remain Safe from the Negativities of some Men.

Now what is the crime of these people?\nThey have called for the introduction of Shariah.\nIt is not enough that the Shariah contradicts existing law. It means that the secular authorities, the democratic right to vote, are to be replaced by a religious right that has not really been reformed for over a thousand years.\nNow these people will say that Shariah should initially only apply to Muslims. Might be. But that contradicts the basic democratic order: one right for everyone.\nWhat would the introduction of Shariah mean?\nLet's take myself as an example. I was baptized as a Christian, but I do not practice this religion. If Shariah applied, I could live under and according to Shariah, but I would have to pay the poll tax. But as a non-practicing Christian, I would be considered an infidel dog under this law that any Muslim could - and even must - kill.\nIn other words, this is an invitation to murder non-believers.\nIf this isn't a crime, what else is?

Religion shouldnt give you rights above other people

Religion aside, it’s not cool to walk around wearing knives and daggers and expect people around you not feel disturbed. \n\nReligion cannot be an excuse. These are not the Middle Ages.

Our religion outfit, weapon, Burkha, Hijab these look different than other people, so be carful when you are not in your country and try to overpower your religion in other country.

Are we a Muslim state or are we in the UK ???....its an insult to all christians who live here. Also who is running this country ...Muslims or the Brits. By the way islam is a false religion and is clssed as Idolatry in the bible. People repent as the end is near.?

may Islam be protected; inshallah ?✨ the most beautiful religion. All these hate comments and no one even knows what they’re saying, or anhthing about Islam. It’s not a bad religion. It’s pure. Canada has always allowed freedom of choice of religion- that’s always been Canada and what’s attracts people to Canada. so as long as we respect each other. The people commenting don’t know anything about the religion… they’re just assuming

Typical muslim activity, absolute cult of a religion. DON'T LET THESE PEOPLE TAKE OVER

My dear Israelis and my dear Jews Shalom. I accept Moses as my holy prophet, I accept Jesus as my holy prophet, I accept all divine books as holiest and from your and mine God and Allah. I am a Muslim and I value humanity and peace for all mankind as ordained in all holy books by Allah/God and all prophets. I wonder where is your deep wisdom gone? Where on earth is your deep intelligence gone? I wonder why we can not preach love,peace,justice and equalty to all human beings the same way as we would like for ourselves? Why we get blinded in the pursuit of richness,wealth, resources and luxurious life? we do not like all these things for people from other religions,colors,cast and creed or outside the geographical boundaries of our own people? Islam likes for you the same which Islam would love for itself. A muslim is ordered by supreme Almighty Allah to love and like the same good things in life for others as you would like for yourself. O, my Jewish friends why are you shedding blood of those innocent people whose land you have grabbed for the last 80 years? My friend Israel could achieve all of its goals by love.peace and helping everyone like you help each other. The amount of trillions of dollars that you are spending to oppress, subjugate,force and annihilate your fellow people of the book, people of the holy Quran ie Muslims, will still not bring you to your desired objectives....why because your ideology is based on hatred and biased. It is based on things utterly against nature and God....against the teaching of all holy prophets. If you would think the same and like the same for others as you would like for yourself, all the worlds issues would get solved. Remember how would it feel if you were subjected to the hatred, inequality and injustice that you are doing to others? How would you feel if your children are massacred the way you are killing today,everyday? Please make this world a beautiful place to live....Palistinians gave you refuge from tyranny and oppression hundreds of years ago and you are killing the same who once protected you. Bloodshed, hatred and injustice is never a solution to problems. If USA, Israel and other countries together, make a truce that we will never spend anything that harms humanity and will work to support everything that changes life standards and makes life beautiful on earth, the amount of trillion dollars that we spend to kill others...will be enough to feed and clothe and educate and bring happiness to global population...the 8.5 billion people on earth. There should be no borders and no man made restrictions on humans. One global peace and justice system should prevail where everyone is free to travel and live...the law breakers and criminals should be dealt with by a global police force. Each single human being should be protected, loved,taken care of and valued as a human...all are children of Adam and Eve...all deserve to be peaceful,happy and free to practice their own religion. Please stop politics of hatred and bloodshed. The greed for oil, gas, valuable energy resources will eventually destroy our mother earth.....a total destruction for all. We were not sent for such evil things by Allah to this earth.

Several names on the bank website list of leaders are actually Jewish. I think it’s somewhat deceptive to call Jewish people white since when most people think “white” they think Scottish or English, which is unfair. I don’t like the term “white people” since it literally has no context. Someone from Poland or Ukraine for instance, or Russia, has literally nothing in common with someone from Ireland or Sweden for instance bc they have completely different histories, cultures, religions, languages, foods, music, etc. etc. etc. I actually consider the term to be insulting. For instance, how would an oriental person feel if people went around calling them yellow folk? I expect they would not like that very much AT ALL!! Rightly so, they would be insulted. I don’t think black people should allow themselves to be called that either since they are actually NOT black. It’s rude. They are African Canadians. I am Irish Canadian. It makes more sense.

India brings a complete opposite religion, language and ideology to foreign countries. It’s the Indian the does not participate in community activities, and integrate into a true Canadian national identity. This refusal has ultimately resulted in Indian being discouraged and quickly blaming others for the problem they have. If rent in downtown Vancouver on the 25th floor is to expensive, maybe try moving to more rural communities in Canada, where costs are different in living. If you come from a poor punjab province in India whereas you’ve sold the farm to come , then don’t expect a downtown Toronto sky rise , 1500 square foot 17th floor underground heated parking, to be the dream destination of your vision. It’s comparable to moving from the punjab to downtown Delhi and expecting the same cost comparisons to the punjab. Unfortunately it’s not sad to see the Indian people go. Hopefully Canada will begin immigration of more cultural like minded people and more people that have religious alliances, than some completely opposite ideology than a Canadian nationalist.

Saddly, hate crimes are everywhere: christians are hated in some muslim countries - the so-called aposthasy can destroy the lives of many people - and they have to practise their religion in secrecy... and in western countries you will be hated if you're a muslim citizen. Honestly, Humanity - for the last 25 years - has become so obnoxious and so mad that, quite frankly, it will be better for us to stay away from each other. In fact, there are moments in my life where I feel happier amongst my plants and my dog than amongst Humans. Good luck to you, but don't expect much improvement in other countries. Like I said, Humanity has gone mad, lately. Big hug from Portugal.

You want to know the worst part? The decrease isn't seen in the types of people that our immigration system was supposed to attract. Race, religion, all of that superficial crap should have remained separate from all of it, DEI trash. Merit. Merit should have remained the goal. Explain to me how we are saving the 'persecuted' when their predators walk in beside them. They are exposing our population to crime from across the globe and that POS is enjoying it.

Mam did you speak about racism in Canada please get a life…there is Racisim in our Country Itself with North And South Divide…with people from North East being targeted as Chinese…with people from Poor States like Bihar Jharkhand West Bengal not given respect in Rich States…with people dividing on Basis of Religion…there is no Racism in Canada have been living here from past 6 years so better watch your tongue..

drag queen storytime. I wouldn't go to it or bring my kids, but nobody has forced that on you. Its not indoctrination. Religion is the biggest indoctrination tool. Are you saying you want to stop other people who want to do that and see that from being able to do it? Thats wacky. Thats not you do you and I'll do me. Thats far from it.

These people are lying. They go after short skirted women and gay people. It isn't just alcohol, they are forcing their fanatical religion upon everybody else. If they want sharia then let them go back to the hell holes they ran from. The people they harassed were doing nothing illegal. How dare they tell us what to do in our own country when WE took THEM in. Europe need to export these nutjobs back to the awful countries that spawned them. No wonder that so many Westerners resent Muslims.

Islam is not a religion: it's an expansionist plot with a genocide agenda. AND I WAS A MUSLIM BEFORE, AND I STILL LIVE IN AN ISLAMIC COUNTRY, which means I see how these people act and think 24/7.\n\nWake up, Europe. \nFree yourselves from that bomb undermining your societies.

I am not Muslim but Canada is still a great country. A Muslim country will be a huge change and it does depend on the country. I lived in Morocco for 2 years and you are judged by your money. Really snobby people. They hate the poor and there are lots of poor people. Cost of Living has also increased. Lovely climate. No job opportunities for young people. I worked in Dubai for 6 months. All bling and only the 20 % have any proper say. Spent a holiday in Oman. Woman still kept back. Also might get caught up in Middle East conflict. Countries like Kuwait/Saudi etc very strict after freedom of Canada. Albania probably would not be strict enough for you. 60% percent Muslim. Had a holiday there about 10 yrs ago. Beautiful in summer and I believe still reasonable. Will be interested to see where you pick. I live in Ireland cost of living madly expensive!! I have cousins in Montreal. Have spent many vacations there. Why not try Vancouver for better weather? I just love Canada but all my immediate family are here. Will be in Canada again in September.\nReally living in a country just because of your religion in this day and age is not great. We now live in a Global World. If you have good family values that is all that matters. Anyway Good Luck but it is a big jump.

It's frustrating when people claim to want peace and respect for other religions and beliefs, but their actions don't align with that. ?? It's important for everyone to coexist peacefully and embrace diversity. In the UK and other modern countries, the majority of people don't support the implementation of Sharia law at allllll. Let's hope for a world where understanding and respect prevail.

Canada is not an Islamic state and never will be. we have people all over the world with different languages and religions. What makes ISLAM special over the rest? I'm glad Canada is secular and NO RELIGION should always be applied to our institutions. I want the references of God removed in. our judicial system too.

To all those people saying “ the religion doesnt matter in this circumstance “ this is just like asking a muslim girl to take of their hijjab
