I suppose part of that is the fact that if they wanted life in Canada to be exactly the same as it was back home; why not just stay at home?
I guess I just don't see something as obvious as not being able to even talk to your fellow citizens as not being a sign of a truely great Canadian culture. Part of us being a "melting pot" is the fact that cultures do indeed melt. Start segrigating cultures and we end up as a country divided.

We are not a melting pot. We are multicultural which means that people import their own cultures.
Why not just stay at home? You're pretty smart, I'm sure you can come up with some pretty good reasons why people would want to move here.
Seggregating? I don't see much seggregation. Sure there are communities where people of different ancestral backgrounds live in and that but they are not seggregated by the definition of that word. There are problems, I will not deny that but I mean really, the Canadian multicultural experiment is working out pretty fantastically.
