first of all we are not White so nobody asked for our opinion. We are just numbers for Canadian statistics. So stop thinking yourself as a group.

Please don’t bring no-sense idea here. We should fight against "nation within Nation". We suppose to feel Canadian first and try to integrate country/people/language/culture as CANADIAN.

these tendencies are due to fact that Canada did a very poor job of integrating its immigrants. leaving them with their own identities even after they immigrated .

this kind of 'multicultural mosaic' as opposed to US ' melting pot' ( where all cultures are integrated and merged into one american culture) is what is feeding such seperatist demands.


e.g. people referred to as ' french canadians, indo canadians, libyan canadians,

Multicultural is not very successful that been proved in lot of European countries. That may be reason few EU countries are very strict now and bringing new laws every time to diminish multiculturalism otherwise nation can not stand for long.

Good thought give desi s a chance to exploit fellow desis even more if ever this a realty.atleast now if we enter the system we are (almost) one of the canadians...I think this is a better option and stay where we are and bring up more serious topics for discussion.
