Looking at the comments below, I have to say, good job Harper. Turning Canadians against Canadians. Stirring the pot of racism. Lifting the wet rocks under which the racist xenophobic cretins that are usually shunned from society can now crawl into everyday life and feel empowered. ABC - Anyone But Conservatives. Let's go Justin Trudaeu, make your father proud.

Islam is blessing for Germany and Europe. If Islam was there in Germany 6 million Jews life would have not lost their lives. Europe would not have under gone world war II. All the Europeans are making noise and talk ill about Islam must read history. Just for your information when Muslims conquered Jerusalem in 637 A.D , the ban on Jews worship imposed by Christians was removed . Jew occupied high position in Andalusia that is a part of Spain during Muslim rule. Let our brothers and sisters of Europe learn patience, tolerance and love and respect of women from Muslims.

Also, the ONLY way islam is growing IS BECAUSE THEY HAVE ENDLESS KIDS (then FILE FOR ALL THE BENEFITS THEY CAN!!!- therefore MAKING YOU ALL PAY TO RAISE THEIR KIDS!!!) and because YOUR GOVERNMENT KEEPS LETTING THEM IN!!!!  Hardly ANYONE is joining islam, only a very few THAT HAVE NO BRAINS!!!!

I'm tolerant, liberal individual, I'm qualified and speak English fluently, always wanted to move to Canada but they make it really difficult for me, oh boy if only I was an Islamic fanatic who believes those who question my religion should be beheaded, then they would open the doors wide for me as it seems.\n\nSame goes to the UK, they let everybody that they shouldn't let, in, those who would try to absorb the culture and make it better, they don't let them in, great policy.

As an atheist exmuslim who despises orthodox islam and jihadis, I have the ability to separate the regular muslims from the crazy ones. I have always admired Canada's openness and inclusivitiy which I believe is unrivalled in the world. However the hate speech in these comments are troubling. Not all americans are KKK members and not all muslims are jihadis. Let's all oppose the crazy ones together but by preaching hate speech against all Muslim Canadians you are making the situation a lot worse and perhaps turning what is 1% of Muslim Canadians to a higher number.

wearing hijab,burqa,niqab has nothing to do with being more religious, they jus want to push extreme islam more into society to see how much they can penetrate, its part of ther inferiority/superiority complex. where as in muslim countries non muslims need to hide ther identity in fear of ther life. this is the fault of western politicians allowing muslim immigration. islam does not even beleive in freedom of religion or freedom from religion. u cant hav a secular,democratic country with a non democratic, non secular totalitarian ideology. geert wilders is right, dont make the same mistakes as europe. let muslim countries take in muslim refugees,asylum seekers etc etc

My experience in Canada has been largely positive, with only minimal racial difficulties.  As a teenager, I do recall some kids making blatantly racist comments, when I was the only minority in the room; but they were silly girls, popular and full of themselves, and most of the students who heard did not laugh with them. We all knew it was wrong.  Another time I was told, by an agent, that a potential employer claimed she would not hire me because of my race.  I did not hear these words firsthand, though, so it was impossible for me to verify the truth. In the end, I let the matter alone. Other people,  I realize, have endured severe injustices; such have not been my experience, but this does not subtract from their reality.  Indeed, racism does exist, and shall remain as long as there are imbeciles wallowing in the mire of ignorance, people who cling to an absurd sense of superiority for lack of something more meaningful to hold.  As well--and it must be said!--quite likely, we all have, at some point, entertained discriminatory thoughts. 'Tis not a 'black and white' problem but a human one, and we must be mindful of it beginning with ourselves.  Canada, then, with its many inhabitants and complex history, will never be the exception. We can't expect perfection among people, here or anywhere else in the world.  Even so,  I believe there are enough fellow Canadians who strive to treat people as individuals and are happy to make friends across cultures.  My life has been and continues to be a testament to that!  Whatever our troubles, we still retain a proud heritage of diversity and progressive ethnic harmony.  We do try, and for this reason I love my country.  I am deeply patriotic and immensely proud to be part of it!  

Enough is enough. America, wake up over 500,000 Muslim/Refugees being relocated to the United States. Did you vote for that? Of course not. For the real truth Google “TheProjectMuslimBrotherhood” their secret doctrine to destroy America from within.  Guess what they are succeeding folks. One only has to look at England and France and Europe today, It is sad what Paris has become, mainly due to the Muslim immigration; take a good look at Europe and that is America in 25 years, unless something is done to prevent “theprojectmuslimbrotherhood” from making further inroads into America, our cities, schools, universities and even our own government.  Multiculturalism is literally destroying Europe. There are now over 700 “Islamic no go Muslim Zones” within England, France and Germany. \nMichigan, Tennessee, California and Colorado have so far most of the immigrants what State next? I have no problem with the “peaceful Muslim” that wants to integrate into our culture and follow our laws.  The problem lies in that they want to dominate and force Islam and Sharia law upon us all. Just not acceptable here in America folks. Stand up and be counted.  “When good men and woman our quiet evil always wins”  Forget about be labeled a racist, or being politically correct, multiculturalism is not good for America. Let them adopt to our culture, period Amen. Again for facts and truth Google “theprojectmuslimbrotherhood” speaks volumes on the intent to destroy us from within. Who will stop this “insanity” from becoming a reality in America? Join ACT today, a non violent association with over 600 chapters throughout America and the World, to stop radical Islam and Sharia Law from making further inroads into our culture. Jews, Christians, Priests are being murdered and churches are being burned to the ground, enough is enough folks. Stand up and be counted to defeat this real threat upon America. Enough is really enough folks.

how hypocrite! dont judge about all muslims, but you can very well tell us about US attacking afghanistan or iraq and make the entire western world responsable for that. get knowledge before tellin such a bulls***! common people, even from US, have nothing to do with that, there are lobbyists, strong and very rich people, who you will never reach. but you let your frustrations to normal people. therefore you are bad! islam is a bad thing

no there lying in front of the camera. in the Koran it says to teach the unbelievers of the way of islam, and if they don't accept behead them or convert them (if your a Jew sorry you only have choice 1) islam the ultimate religion of hate, just face it fight against the muslims because there Jihad in England has already began. This first one is Stealth trying to make Sharia more and more accepted until they can have Sharia law. Just face it they won't integrate! Let this be a warning to us
