I do think that some of the concerns being expressed here are a result of some aspect of Canadian immigration and cultural norms from other countries. Some of the backlash so to speak. It's not all redneck, conservative, white people who are doing all the complaining and pushing back.
As I had said in my post, the observation, and the mindset that a lot of people have with regards to this is just different with people from other countries.
I am currently on a longer term stay in Europe at the moment and when I describe in general terms some of the battles, discussions, progressive/regressive/crazy movements in regards the topic at hand, people legit think I, we, Canada/North America has gone mad.

I don't know your background but if you immigrated from another country, I am curious as to what people's mindset may be back in your native home country? I assume it may differ from Canada's.
