The guy committed no racism. He just asked a simple question. How nice to label him as a racist when simply he asked a question?

There is no place for hate in society. Totally condemn. He is a Sikh not a Muslim. How can he not know any basic stuff like that. That being said Islamophobia should be defined correctly. Fear of Islam is different and hatred towards Muslims as persons is different. Fear of Islam is a rational fear not a phobia to have if you are a Canadian citizen. If Christianity spreads like the way Islam is spreading in Saudi Arabia or other Islamic nations, then Muslims will be scared and they have the right to fear. So don't label it as a racist if someone condemns Islam as ideology. If they hate Muslims and bully them show them their place and expose them.

Muslim area??? birch that falls in UK so shut the fuck up with your muslim law. you came to UK and you have to abide by the law of this land you idiot. and if someone takes any action against them, they label him/her as racist and islamophobic.

I would sit on my door step, drinking ale, with my dogs, in front of my union jack painted door. Because this is England, and i would be doing NOTHING illegal. But saying anything against being culturally enriched like this, labels you a nazi, facist, far right, whatever. This sort of immigration was prescribed for us, we weren't asked if we wanted it, just had it dumped on us, by people who live far away from such environments, and would never choose to live among us. Why do you think brexit happened!? Will know one address the elephant in the room? ask anyone who voted to leave the EU and a part of the reason, if not the whole reason was immigration! The nation spoke, is speaking, and you just wont listen. FFS

Islam is a cult, the Muslims are told to lie in their Qur'an. Read suras 5 verse 51 and 9 verse 29 to start , then tell mee if it is a religion of peace. The hijab is not in the Qur'an. The women in Islam are second class citizens, it takes 2 women to equal the statement of 1 man. If Islam ois so good then ask yourselves why are they leaving their countries to come to the west?\nGoing back to the standards of women, sura 4 verse 34 read it. Do you know the punishment for leaving Islam? It is death, that's why there are so many horror stories in other Islamic countries. \nAll I am saying folks is open your eyes. What is the saying, when in Rome do as the Romans do, this don't apply to the Muslims. The want to come and change the laws to suit them, islamaphobia is just the beginning. Do you think you could've gone to their countries and demand your rights? I think k not, look all I am saying is blend in, don't try to change us to suit your lifestyle because it did not work in your country, remember you chose to come here for a reason knowing fully well what the west is all about.lastly, you label us as islamaphobe if we don't agree with your behavior,so what we call you because of your behavior towards other religious groups especially Christians under which this country was established?

Most Chinese and East Indians are using fraud. Mostly to get people over here and especially the young that go on to American universities taking slots from citizens. They then get green cards and take jobs away from citizens. The other thing with Canadians and Americans is that for the last 40 years they have conditioned, especially whites, not to say anything about someone that is foreign or not white otherwise you're labeled as 'racist'. Canadians are incredibly naive and historically lenient

Hate, that is all that is coming from the anti immigration lobby. They hate the Latinos because they represent the ancestors that were the real founders of America, the Native Americans. They were the Mayans, Incas, Aztecs, and North American Tribes. The truth is those who label themselves as 'real Americans' just live in fear and denial of the basic fact that their European ancestors murdered and pillaged these people into poverty. Their gold stolen, land invaded, and women raped; the three main talking points that are used against these people just wanting a better life. America is a melting pot, get over it because this hate is just the pot calling the kettle black; hypocrisy at its finest.

and for canadians who disagree and there for are labelled racists, and have no place in canada? a gulag? a final solution? sound familar? Russia and germany back in the day? PS only proliferators of hate speech have the nerve to make hate speech laws.

Yes Canadians are pissed, Yes if you say anything you are labeled a racist.

Please don’t label this guy as an immigrant. He’s not, he’s and illegal alien. 10 years in the US. never learned to even speak English. The Canadians don’t have the resources to look after millions of these so called, immigrants.

there is racism and prejudice everywhere. on every level no matter gender, race, religion, culture. etc. no matter where you go. but if these guys take a trip to any of those corrupted third world backwards countries they would see how good they really have it. us foolish americans canadians dont know how good we have it. we are living in the freest country nation and society ever seen in the history of the world. at least our country creates new laws every year to make our people feel safe. but other islamic countries continue following laws made in the 15th century. do you see and appreciate the difference.\n\nsure people will label you based off your skin tone and your demeanor. BUT WHY? because they have had bad history with those that look just like you. i have had REALLY REALLY bad experiences with asians in everything. so i naturally stay away from all asians and i do not trust them. HOWEVER, i feel when foreigners come to this country they ruin it for the rest of the citizens that are of similar foriegn race eventhough they were born there. WE NEED TO PUT OUR NATIONS CULTURES first. and thats what we have to teach everyone. we put our canada america pride priority and whatever culture we came from LAST. THATS WHY its best we learn to fix our people in a whole in our country before bringing in anymore foreigners who do not respect our nation. lets stop third world immigration and work on making our country great again. so we can stop all this crime in our neighborhoods. because it hinders our progress. once every race color ethnicity of people are acting right then we will have no prejudice based off color or even gender because everyone is giving everyone respect. but because CRIME IS HIGH in all foreign races, and we continue to disrespect eachother. nobody feels safe anymore. whether your light skinned white or black.

It sucks than Latin American people can be accepted, we have to accept Americans instead and yeah they come and spend money but they come to spread their bad habits, deseases and more and just because we live in third world Countries, thanks for the labels USA.

Yup its because they label him a criminal. Although the truth is that is not the case. He make money for himself and the country he works in but his not an engineer, doctor and or millionare. a lot of billionaire chinses live there. Its seems its being rich or poor

While I understand people may not like certain groups, but we are all one race and there are no black or white people just different shades of the same color so why do we perpetuate incorrect labeling when everyone is trying to be PC? It can't help with understanding and growth as a morale society!

That Nova Scotia ladys outcome is what gts Canada labeled at too leftist (by right wingers). It is unfair and biased. They forget all the pirivileges the whites get. Wonder what they say about the discrimination Natives get. Hypocrites.

This might be similar, but a little different. I've been language profiled before, just for speaking my mother tongue. I'm bilingual, english is a second language to me but welsh is my first and primary language. There's a notion that that some languages are redundant, not even worth speaking or learning. \n\nSometimes being different is a good thing, but why do people mock us for being ourselves?\n\nIt's not how a person looks that counts it's the who they are as an individual that counts. \n\nQ: Get rid of the label that you pin on someone, what else do you have left?\n A: a human being, who has more in common with us than we thought. Believe it or not people are interesting. Diversity in life, cultural backgrounds & experience makes life fun! So, let's see if were able to help others in a good way, not a problematic negative one.\n\n(sorry if this turned into a rant)\n\nNadoleg Llawen a Blwyddyn Newydd Dda!\n\nMerry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

It happened in europe now it's Canada and U.S. turn,Global bull shit, news even in Canada is so biased it is disgusting to watch, bullshit in gov. from fed. to prov. and even local, democracy is done,welcome to the will tell you whats best for you and you'll like it if not here is your label, thats your label, better like that label because we could give you another label, one big bullshit plan that has greatly execellerated in the last year, speak-up let sanity rule, say no to communism, maxists big brother bullshit,if not for you then your children and grandchildren, we are stewards of their future!!!

The problem is that our own western media  agencies  are completely misleading the Canadian public together with  governments and what is  reported in the mainstream news are  manufactured narratives  where us the public that enjoy western life style which was the main reason many of us moved here  are being set up for a massive civil unrest problem in the future .The Islamic issues have been a big problem for over 10 years now in England France Belgium Holland Sweden now Germany it didn't just happen a week ago yet when some one dares to speak about it and tell it the way it is right away gets labeled as extreme right wing or nationalist or skin head  by the same main stream media . The public is being set up systematically to a huge failure it is just a matter of time .

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.

It is a very good point you make, there is an argument that if the German people had stood up to Hitler then we would not have experienced one of the largest genocides in history but Muslims are often unfairly blamed for actions that are not their own\nThe media does focus on the extremist element but the issue is that if people from a non-Muslim background try to intervene it is labelled as racism which is part of the reason that the politicians are so soft handed with Muslim extremists

Sounds great but how're you planning on avoiding being labelled as fascist or Neo-Nazi's. Is there a support group in the UK?
