What kind of a hopeless country even allows something so frivolous as a "Human Rights" complaint to even be lodged?

It really is disgusting. I love(d) Canada, but this stuff makes me sick. I've actually been considering moving to Saudi Arabia. They don't waste time with this crap over there.
ha ha... no kidding. The fear and paranoia espoused by some here is truly remarkable.

Canada is a wonderful country. And one of the things that makes it wonderful is its ability to confront and try to understand issues of difference. I'd much rather live in a country in which people can bring complaints forward and have their voices heard.

No one is saying every complaint is a winner, that the system is perfect, or that there aren't problems. But what's the alternative? Scrapping our democratic principles in favour of some fictional narrative of Canadian identity construed by a few? All this garbage about how Canada is going down the drain because it allows people to express themselves is little more than eurocentric and xenophobic rhetoric cloaked in the substantively hollow appeal to 'tradition'. What a joke.
