Yes, there are some on the far left who want to change society or others on the far left and the religious right who care about immigrants. But I think the primary motive is that money and power talk and the Establishment make a lot of money keeping the borders as open as possible.

Actually the primary motive is life long voters, it's the liberal way! Cheap labour is secondary! Look when the Syrians first arrived, you had Truduh, Orville Redenbacher and John Tory all rushing to welcome the new immigrants!

Why?

Why the ill will of pay back towards Canada? Can you explain why you think Canada has become your enemy and you bear a grudge against the country?

Did you apply to immigrate to Canada and were turned down for lacking the right qualifications for Canada so now you're in a snit about it?

When Muslims pay you back it means they enrich the society with diversity. So, I am wishing Canada well.

When Muslim population percentages rise, so does the societies tolerance for Women, LGBT, and Minorities. The LGBT Pride Parades in Muslim countries are known to be the most celebrated in the world.

Multiculturalism and antithetical to our society and our culture. It's essentially the Balkanization of a nation.

Yup, good times, you bet'cha.

And don't get me started on how great the Rosh Hashanah celebrations are in Muslim countries. Such wonderful and inclusive people

Whether something is considered ethical or not is primarily based on one's value system and perspective. In the case of a multi-cultural society, the primarily opposition comes from white nationalism and people that sympathize with them and have Alt-Right beliefs. The United States culture is a mix of many different cultures. We've come into our own while absorbing aspects of different cultures from around the world. We're a nation of immigrants.

While calling something "antithetical" is a catchy term and accepted by a certain homogeneous subculture within America, it doesn't pass intellectual scrutiny!

The Canadian response represents a hardening of attitudes away from multiculturalism over time.

Settlement of Syrian Refugees in the U.S. Accelerates - WSJ

Goodness the U.S. is doing the same thing ; whodda thought all you had to do was google to find that out?

U.S. Latest Country Trying To Emulate Canada's Syrian Refugee Program

Excerpt from above link: "The fact that it was already in operation in Canada and had proven successful was invaluable to our advocacy," Bier said in an interview. "I have no doubt that this is going to happen (in the U.S.). This is something that's part of the agenda and is being developed by the most important actors in the American refugee system."

Haaar

Oh my, Gollie.....stones....glass houses.........

We've been dealing with multiculturalism peacefully in Canadian society for hundreds of years. French is currently the mother tongue of 22% of the Canadian population.
