FYI: for any ignorant , fool , thinks Arabs and Muslims , are the same, check again, Islam is not a race , it is a religion, not all Arabs Muslims, not all Muslims are Arabs, just like not all christians , are white , in fact in Indonesia, there are , 100 million Muslims alone, so check your fangs , before you use your , tongue .

one thing no one ever addresses is REVERSE-DISCRIMINATION - it happens but if I complain it's not taken seriously or plain ignored !!

They may not even know it but when push comes to shove they will become terrorist because their religion demands it. I cannot understand how educated people could become followers of the false prophet. The whole world will be decieved. They profess to be a religion of peace but it is not. Those who follow the false prophet and his insane law will forfeit their souls. Ignorance will not be a defence and woe to those that corrupt the innocent with lies, fear, idols and false gods.

Brainwashed ignorant...their choice? Ahahahaha!!! Ahahahahaha!! Ahahahaha!!???

To the hateful ignorant comments stating that isis is killing christians, yes it's true they have. However, they have killed far more muslims than the media publishes (go search about the Jordanian man who was burned alive) \nAlso, Mohammed might have married what is now considered to be underage, but let me remind you that it was over a thousand years ago. It was culturally acceptable even in the western world and Europe for girls to be married at a young age and to men significantly older. Argument invalid. Hate won't help anyone

This is the same repulsive lunacy that has kept the middle east in a state of ruin and ignorance.\nFuck them all off, they are insane and dangerous. A bunch of mad cunts. With a holy book of sacred hate.\nInstruction to kill all non muslims, and lie about everything.\nIf you dare criticize it they will cry like babies and then kill you.

wtf freedom of speech is one thing what theyre doing is spreading hatred bred from ignorance, they have the audacity to harass people like that they should try that in america were almost every citizen is armed they would get obliterated lmao

Dude, if you DID understand their religion, you'd be just as terrified as the rest of us that do. Ignorance truly is bliss in this situation.... I was the same lefty-huggy-peace-love-all ignoramus before I learned more about Islam. If the people that are coming to our country are not going to put Canada and our values FIRST, then I want them out. Right now.

I worked in the U.S. for 12 years. The overall general worldwide perception of Americans is spot on. There are many exceptions however. Sadly, the bulk of the population are quite ignorant and just downright arrogant with their uneducated opinions of the rest of the world.

If you are smart and peaceful.. DO NOT SCROLL DOWN. Ignorance everywhere.

ok so muslims say they should be able to wear what they want so their women cover up. but then when you ask them about western women they say they should cover up and SHOULD NOT be able to dress the way they do. liberals who think they are being so free and open minded need to open their eyes to the religion they are trying to defend. muslims routinely abuse the freedoms that are afforded to them while living in a democratic society that hypocrisy becomes second nature to them. the women that was interviewed says we get dressed up put on fancy clothes and make up with other women, even though to do that is haram in islam and is only meant to attract men. ignorance and regression will lead to the downfall of every western country. it is simply a fact and somehow it always comes off as fear mongering when it is said, no religion should ever have a right over any society. if there was a religion where it was ok to behead people who dont believe in that religion would it be ok for people to believe it, oh wait ISLAM.

It was'nt the Muslims who found and built Canada nor created her economy. Their limited capabilities and views do not allow this.They are not capable of building a free society. They sought refuge and a livelihood in Canada free from threats of death, fear of imprisonment, torture, hunger and poverty. The aspect of Islam (easy oil money which is now beginning to run out) which made a lazy bunch of people even lazier and accustomed to an ignorant and arrogant way of life is what is causing a problem now.\nWomen who choose to wear a covering are the ones who believe that their own forms are either evil, evoke evil or just plain ugly and unsightly. Personally, I have seen scantily clad western women sunning themselves on beaches without inviting a second glance. It's the Muslims who are dirty minded enough to call this dirty. Ugliness breeds ugliness and the niqab. Muslim women who defend the covering - you are now exposed, so shut up.

White people are very ignorant

Ban the nihabs it's a disgusting act of freedom to be completely ignorant, anti-social, anti intergration, ( do not communicate with the vile ignorants that wear nihabs, treat them with the same ignorance and ignore there presence..........

Fuckin nominal muslims... Ignorant about their own shitty religion

This points out to the ignorance and lack of any logical reasoning. These two (dubious) university graduates claim that 'hijab/niqab helps us come close to our religion', ridiculous . Also, they ostensibly beleive that their so called 'modern' religion of peace regards 'women'one notch above men....This cannot be equality. Also, it is the same religion which does not permit women to vote, does not treat women as 'full witnessess'...It means that a testimony of two women is considered equivalent to that of one man.... is this equality and fair treatment of women? Rubbish. \n\nMany religions have lot of such stupid stuff and all have changed with modern times and these guys are clutching hard to 1400 year old illogical traditions. For example, Indians condemned and discontinued widow burning long back, the western world predominantly Christian, has long back take a humane view of homosexuality ( no homosexuals are punished as per the Old Testament any more) and these guys are busy justifying outdated practices. \n\nBetter change with times or else face the brunt of being ostracized to reason you create yourselves. Nobody can help.

Let me rephrase the title for you. Muslims in Canada: Anti-Westerner sentiment shamefully ignored.

What happens when you insult Buddha to a buddhist? He'll probably pretty much ignore you and continue on his peaceful day.\nWhat happens whan you insult Jesus to a christian? He'll probably just give you a frown, or maybe at most AT MOST he'll tell you in a loud voice ''Hey! Keep your mouth shut!''\nNow, what happens when you insult Mohammed to a muslim? You'd probably get beat up. Murdered if you're unlucky. And yeah, guess which one they call ''religion of peace''?

So many ignorant anti muslims here, it's so sad that you can't look beyond your garden and educate yourself :/

The issue is islam, not all muslims. Unfortunately those two often go hand in hand, making it hard to criticizes islam without people thinking you are criticizing all muslims, which isn’ the case. \n\nThe issue with the religion of islam is that it is inherently not peaceful (If you want to discuss why that is more so the case than other religions we can do that). In fact in many situations you will hear Islamic muslins part of a western country use the free speech given to them, under the laws and constitution of that society, in order to impose the suggestion of sharia law. This would mean no more free speech (and far more dire consequences) for others not of islamic belief under sharia law. Sharia law is a set of religious political laws used in the majority of middle eastern Islamic countries and cultures. It is truly a backward and barbaric set of laws, incompatible with democracy and I encourage you to investigate that claim. \n\nSo essentially decreasing islam in any scenario will also decrease the political climate it wants to live in. And not only live in, but given to text in the Koran, effectively dominate. Religious assimilation and toleration is not part of the religion. And in the small case that it is, those religious peoples are second class citizens. \n\nSo you can see how it may sound harsh to say “get rid of islam/muslims” if you are ignorant to the fact of both their possible separation and islam’s eventual political goals. \n\nNot all muslims want sharia law or are as fundamental/radical as others, but that distinction can be hard to make for many people, when a lot of them are silent. All you see are the riots and bombings across the globe by radical islamists, with little or no condemnation by the former. However once again I state, the issue is islam, not all muslims.\n\nIf you think I myself am ignorant of any of this information please attempt to convince me otherwise and I will thoroughly read your argument.

One of the women speaking said that Prime Minister, Harper's words regarding Islam are creating fear and yet never once mentioned that Jihadism creates fear. A pretty typical Muslim response really, i.e. ignore the Jihadism and put the focus of the people exposing them as a kind of diversion. The only thing Muslims are bothered about isn't having Jihadists in their ranks, it's how any potential backlash might effect THEM. It's called self-preservation.

WHY do none of our so called reporters never question these ppl on what is important to us, such us their feeling towards other religions, why we keep hearing their demands and rights as Canadians, yet constantly ignore, deny or even consider we might have the same rights. Compain of us showing any articles of religion, when those hajabs, burka's, etc. when those articles of clothing have no other purpose but religious beliefs.

I feel extremely sad and sick about the invasion of Muslim, Based on history, I know this invasion is planned they are here to conquer the lands. Nobody ignores that the objetive is to dominate the whole world which will be easier in 15 years when they became majority. I just hope I can get out of this country before the expand with the Sharia law. The culture is scary, from men to women the are agree with the sharia law, and liberals do not want to find out what that really means, but it will be too late when they get high positions all around the country. Actually, liberals normally do no have moral and that gives muslim a good excuse to believe that Alla is on their side and they are suposed to dominate. The same as USA and Canada do not have idea what is going on but they will regret very soon when this muslim show what they really are doing here. Canada isn't a good country anymore.

MUSLIMS STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE\nWATCH THE REAL PLOT ISLAM IS TRYING TO DO, IDIOTS LIKE YOU DONT WANT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, EXCEPT TRUMP. DO NOT IGNORE THIS,WATCH ! ! ! \nDON’T MAKE THIS COUNTRY ANOTHER LEBANON.

Sorry but Canadians prime minister is an ignorant asshole......

I feel so sorry for them, they so ignorant, if they want to please God praise to Jesus

Sweden,Finland,Germany,Greece,Britain...why are Canadian politicians ignoring whats going on in these countries???????

but for freedom u must work not recive and abuse it 100% tolarance is same stupid like 100% ignorance.\nU must earn respect by behaving in right way

For all those ugly and ignorant comments. If you want to judge a religion, judge it by the holy book, Quran. Islam is perfect, Muslims are not. You shouldn't waste your time on YouTube or Fox news, but instead if you really want to know about the religion, STUDY it. Oh! And don't waste your time my fellow Muslims replying to the racist or offensive comments because all they want is your ATTENTION!

As a multi generational Canadian, I don't really care whether they cover their face or not. That's their choice. During my life I've seen all these different forms of conservative dress from catholic nuns, to Hutterites to Mennonites and these people are just part of the mix. What this is designed to do is to create a barrier between themselves and the larger society which is fine. I would never interact with one of these woman ever because the thin flimsy barrier makes it clear that she is not interested in talking to anyone for any reason and again this is fine. If she was with a man I would talk only with the man and completely ignore her and if she was with a male child I would talk to the male child, not to her. I don't normally chat with women who are strangers other than now and then in a supermarket line or whatever. This face thingy frees me from the need of chitchat small talk and I'm good with that. In any case we would have absolutely nothing in common.

Canadians used to be the nicest people on earth. What happened? The PM Harper is ignorant about Islam as the Koran was the first time God gave women equal rights. Per The Book women are equal to men except by one degree which is strength so God commanded that men be the protectors of women. As to the wearing of anything on your head, God said nothing of this in the Koran. God said to cover your cleavage. He added that the scarf women wore around their pony tale could be pulled forward to aid with coverage if needed. I'm not sure how God's word became so corrupted, but at least the Koran has not been physically altered like The Bible has. My faith is between me and my God and not for the outside world to see at a glance.

I don't care if you wear hijab but covering face all the time and refusing to take pictures for lisence and passport is not okay. also when the whole world has problem with your religion maybe there must actually be problem you have to fix and not act like you are the victims. we have right to be careful and no its not fair to you but this is what people who follow Islam faith and harm others get you. Islamic people out cry for their right but have to problem taking others away. for example wanting daycares to ban pork just because they can have porn. you should not get special treatment for you religion. I am Hindu/Buddhist and I do not ask people to stop eating beef or many other restrictions that apply to me. the pride of your religion is what's keeping you guys from sensible thinking. and no not all Muslims are the same but the percentage of people that share hatred for other religions is too great too ignore. if you want people to accept you then try becoming a part of the culture and not try to change it for your liking. show love to other faiths and athiests. stop trying to make exceptions for your religion.

What about the non-Muslim women in Canada who are victims of domestic violence? Why do we ignore them?

this 'muslim women' not wearing nikab is so full of shit its not even funny. why is indonesia and malyasia islamic countries. did muslims go there and start wars, NO. these asians accepted the religion because of their research and analysis of authentic textual evidence. spain was a muslim country for years and those years in history contained some of the best times for civil justice in that region. the reason she's not covering her hair probably has to do with the fact that arabic is not even her first language and if you put a gun to this chicks head and told her to recite surat al faitha (something muslims suppose to say 17 times per day) she couldnt do it in a million years. this same woman also said in the interview that the sixth pillar of islam is jihad\nin fundementalism and thats a lie. the sixth pillar of islam is considered to be al kadr (believe in predistination) and the fact that this ignorant woman had the call to go on national televison and speak about islam like she actually knew or understood anything is dispicable because non of the shit that this stupid bitch said in the interview was factually correct about the religion , so why don't you get the actual facts citynews you bunch of dusters and stop airing fear mongering macivalian style tatics to slowly rip away human rights to freedom of self expression to prodominately new immigrant canadians. these fresh immigrants have been through enough with out you rich good looking assholes shitting all over them. you anti-islam people are dicks

Warning to all the Muslims watching it: do not look at the comments below. The ignorance is baffling. This is a propaganda piece.

hearing the two white people at the beginning, talking from ignorant point of views ...they have probably never been out of the city of Toronto for their entire lives

it is a shame to see those hateful comments while we pray that may God keep peace in Canada, when we pray in Mosques.\nI'm a Saudi living in Canada. I don't understand how we welcome Canadians to our communities without forcing them to leave their religion but we face that when we come to Canada. **Terrorism has no religion**\n\nIn the past, christians had some terrorist groups and it was crazy but it's ignorant to say Christianity is about terrorism! Now we have crazy groups but that's not us! they use the name of islam and they manipulate verses to do their greedy ugly work.\n\nBTW Canadians should feel ashamed, because they treat Native Amercians like shit, and they still do << quoted from white Canadians! \nthey took their land,,, took children away from their parents to foster homes. this is taught in Canadian universities in a class called Aboriginal Studies.\n\nturn off the TV and go read about islam. I have a white Canadian friend who converted into islam. and she is VERY happy about it.. and i have so many other non muslim friends... we love each other and care for each other.

what religion is this,mutilate women ,kill them for no reason ,they are both stupid they should go live in arab countries where they and their ignorance can survive.!!

Haha at all the haters. Retards feed themselves with non-stop nonsense of media and then come on the internet to spew their ignorant hating asses. \n\nThey have a problem with a small fabric on woman's body, even though many women have said they wear it by choice. It their body, it's their choice. Lol a small fabric is a nightmare for them. I seriously pity you fuc*tards.

Maybe we could educate them with science or we could challenge Allah to a wagon pulling contest......hmmm his wagon isn't moving....guess he took a nap. Honestly it bothers the fuck out of me that grown men and women believe in Santa Claus!!! That is like spitting in the face of men and women who spent their lives and some who even experimented on themselves in order for us to live in such comforts. And what kind of life is faith without reason? Like sails with out wind. Honestly 2015 should see the extinction of religion and all its hate, its ignorance and its disregard for a future of learning.

It takes a truly ignorant and\\or obtuse woman to embrace Islam.\n\nHow about some Quran references that debase women?\n4.15 2.25 2.187 2.221 2.223 2.226 2.230 2.231 2.236 4.11 4.19 4.24 4.25 4.34\n7.24 9.24 11.78 12,28 15.71 22.2

the unknown is only scary if you stay in ignorance.  These people talk about things they know nothing about, why don't they read for Christ sake.

*stops video, scrolls down to comment section. sees stupid ignorant uneducated racist CHILDREN, scrolls back up, laughs and continues video.* \n?

As a Muslim living in Canada, I don't see the harm in a woman wanting to cover herself, I wear the head scarf myself, but in my opinions I don't feel the need to cover myself to prove I am more modest or a better Muslim.  I believe everyone has free will and has the right in this Country to dress the way that the law has allowed them to.  No one has the right to tell someone how to dress, not even the Prime Minister himself.  Telling a woman what she can and cannot wear is oppression.  I truly believe that if Muslims want to live in Western civilization, then they should refrain from covering their faces because the face is our identity and People have the right to know who you are and what your face looks like.  You cannot vote with a covered face, you cannot cover your face in a passport photo, you cannot cover your face for your driver's licence etc... I am a Muslim woman and I say this.  It truly is a shame how the media is portraying Islam and the Muslim people as a whole, and it truly is a shame that Canadians have become so ignorant.  I see more ignorance and racism in Canada than I do in America and 9/11 took place in America.  If you want to know about Islam, learn about Islam from a Muslim, a Library, google Islam, or offer to spend a few days with a Muslim family for research to get a better understanding of Islam and Muslims.  As a Muslim myself I can understand the hatred and the ignorance because we act according to how we were taught and raised, and yes we have many extremists claiming to follow the Islamic faith.  These extremists are not only hurting Western civilization, but they are also hurting the peaceful moderate Muslims that value their rights and freedoms as Canadians.  I do not appreciate ISIS hijacking my religion, I do not appreciate Hamas or Hezballah hijacking my Religion because I am a very accepting person and a very open minded Muslim and to be defined by media as a problem or a terrorist is very hurtful and a shame.

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!  

They love to hate others and yet cannot even love themselves .  The direct link to this cause  is what they feed their minds on . Look at their countries ! They have as much room or more to live on and in  and  they choose to live in Poverty and IGNORANCE !?  Were these the great peoples of the Book that we studied about in school ?  Where is the rational mind ? where is the creative and productive soul who has created some thing to be of a benefit to their families or friends or neighbors ? A car bomb ? A suicide bomber ?  Where , For the Love of God are their heads ? 

Matt bummell I was relating to someone else's comment.\n\nYou lost, so end off - your just a ignorant individual

Stop letting this video get to you! It's bullshit! There are just as many angry catholics in London preaching their own brand of hatred. These people do not represent Islam. And if you are stupid enough to react with hatred to this video, you represent nothing. I am a white British atheist who would rather have informed and committed extremists than trigger happy, ignorant, racists. 

I am deeply disappointed that my hatred and bigotry have been ignored. V
