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.

Holy overreaction. Everyone is just saying they don't like the Human Rights Commission... which are UNDEMOCRATIC! Nothing about hating immigrants or anyone else.
Who said Canada was going down the drain? I love this country, I don't like the Human Rights Commission and believe there are far better ways to handle complaints.
