You speak neither English or French? You make broom handles? you belong to a sexist idiot religion? You have 15 kids and can't even take care of yourself? You hate the West and want to see it destroyed? Your kids are annoying, loud and terrible? Ok you are perfect for Canada and here's 80 grand and house. Honestly, these are the people I'm constantly meeting as a teacher. Canada will be crumbling for the next 40 years, easy.

I’m a second gen Indian in Canada born in USA. It’s become so us vs them between locals and immigrants, that Im caught in the middle, I belong no where and everywhere. There’s no room for my voice, because I’m no different then any Canadian or American in how I act but nothing separates me from Punjab and Kashmir other than accident of birth and one generation. My English is NE United States, my French Québécois, my Hindi Dehli,Punjabi Jalandar, Urdu Lahori, and Turkish Ankara. I speak six languages and I’m fluent in none, I’m from three countries yet none of them want me. It would be great if more of these types of investigations included our voices, as we’re neither here nor there yet caught in the middle of all of this.
