They should ban the burqa and all eastern clothing in the West; the same way the East goes nuts whenever they see a western woman over there wearing a tank top and a skirt.

Wait...Harper says this religion is anti women. Is this not a fact? Are we racist for pointing this out?? I don’t want sharia law here, I’m not okay with waiving security processes to accommodate the niquab, does this make me a racist?? If you don’t like the west, don’t want to embrace our culture, you should not come here.

lol - this is what happens when CBC leaves the safe confines of their web site where they can limit comments to the wild west of YouTube where they are called on their B*llSh*t

Why should we in the West tolerate a belief system which is totally intolerant of our way of life?

This is getting silly. The main issue still stands....WE CAN'T TELL THE GOOD FROM THE BAD. It is such a huge growing trend that there are Islamic attacks on the west.

Jews are playing muslims against us as pawns to spark revolution in the west and change the developed world into a crooked hellhole\n\nDo people look at you differently?\nNO BECAUSE THERE R MUSLIMS EVERY FUCKING WHERE\n

The Koran is a medieval book of conquest that preaches, intolerance, war, slavery and rape. Islam cannot coexist with\na free and open society. Relativism has poisoned and undermined the west. Religions, cultures societies are not\nall equal. Also they aren't equal to race - you can't choose your race like you can a religion or culture. We have become\nso dumbed down. We don't really stand for anything, that's why we fall for any lofty sounding B.S.

Why is diversity so pushed on the Western World? How is it that the West must have diversity and not the rest of the world? If diversity is so great then why are not other countries not doing it? Very diverse civilizations and countries, like Yugoslavia, Roman Empire, Italy before reunification do not last.

Third worlders do not belong in the west, period. We didn't sign up for forced population replacement and these invaders need to go back.

Muslims must change there view.stop islam bull.live in West\n like others.

steven harper is right if you do not want sharia then stand up against jihad , if you feel afraid think how we feel with you spouting Islam these young girls are either naive or stupid you will not have the freedoms you enjoy in the west once sharia is fully implemented perhaps they should spend time in Saudi or Indonesia . they feel trendy empowerment in the west against us but this is not the reality for Muslim women in truth they will become the abused and invisible 2nd class citizens in Islam and they wont like that . what they are doing is against democracy and free women you stupid stupid femenists

SEND ISLAM BACK TO THE MIDDLE EAST -- THEY DON'T LIKE THE WEST, SO THEY NEED TO VACATE!!

The west is rising against Islam

BAN ISLAM OUT OF THE WEST.

It is a Islamic problem, not the IRA. Your in the west loose the anti western garb.

Anti-mask laws are a must in the West

how come nobody show the pictures of the West killing brown people

We are Otha tic flour for west Eastern beautiful fruits !very Of Assam people !

find one muslim country who invaded another country, the west is testing the Muslims patience for decades now and I am sorry for those actions of Muslims , muslim don't have to blow up theirselves when they see a western with gun in their home. Maybe western should till them how to react to such a threat.

women rights lady said herself there is a war between the west and islam and by her talk she has chosen to be with the west. find one prime minister who says women should wear hijab. there's a western prime minister in this video who says women should not wear hijab. ???seems to me like the women rights and west is suppressing the women. I don't know if the west is that stupid to notice or so agnorant that doesn't care.

hello m'y canadian brainwashed fallas why wont u tell ur fucking gouvernement to stop selling canadian made weapons in to the hands of terroristes like saodi arabia our biggest arms custemer Ohhh i Forget for canada its okay to secretly arme moderate rebels in syria cuz they are fighting to get assad out what the west wants at all costes

if they can follow western lifestyle why are they doing in the west

I am a Muslim and I do not feel that any Muslim living in the west has a right to implement shariah law or Islamic patrols.\n\nMost Muslims do not support such vigilantes!

These reporters are just cowards. They don´t want to understand the truth they already see. Even the so called moderate Islam is a faschistic ideologie. Islamophilie ist the illness of the west we should talk about.

I don't want Islam in my country, not because I hate them but because religions have their own set of moral principles and beliefs, Islam is clearly not compatible to our secular system. I'm not religious myself and I live in the west coast where there are few muslims, but just based from the discussions I've had with transfer students that come to my university I already don't like what I hear. They were nice, kind of, but all of them had backwards ideas. If you need a better reason to be against it, simply read the first few pages from the Quran, it is deplorable, more so then the bible. \n\nIf they want to integrate, their beliefs need to be reformed like Christians have centuries ago.

Bless Harper! the man had balls and that's what this country, hell, the whole West needs to face this pervasive invasion

Funny, how these women only wear the thing that covers your face when they're made to in their own countries, and most Muslims who have moved from Muslim countries to the west did not wear anything on their heads UNTIL they moved to the west. This is nothing but a political statement.

The West needs to wake up and study the Koran and Hadith, life of Mohammed to fully understand that although many Muslims are good, the doctrine of Islam itself what is demanded in Islam, is very dangerous and incompatible to Western ideals and lifestyle. It's aim is to implement Islam and Islamic law throughout all lands, violently if needed. The people that are true Muslims, actually follow the Koran and example of Mohammed are called radicals when in fact, they're the true followers of Islam. Therefore, Islam should be banned itself due to National Security for it preaches the overthrow of current secular Governments and replacement with all under the eventual control of Islam once numbers and their power make it possible. Also, remember Taquiyya wher Muslims can lie to protect and promote Islam, so can you really trust any Muslim?

Bunch of primitive, abusive, west hating people wanting to bring Sharia law.

The west need to ban the religion of Islam before its too late. If the peaceful Muslims who preach Islam stood up to these islamic radicals alongside the people of the country they now are living it would be more accepted.

This should be outlaw in public. Practice your freedom of religion at home, we do not want to see it in public. If you do not want to be centered out or ridiculed blend in like everyone else in public. Or go to where it is normal, In the west it is not normal!

My biggest question is when the civil war in Syria ends, will all the muslim immigrants go home to their country or continue to infest the West?

The niqab is SCARY. The burqa is scary. The first time I saw a woman wearing a black burqa head to toe it sent a cold chill right up my spine. The niqab is anti-women. It is NOWHERE in the Quran. BAN THE BURKA. BAN THE NIJAB. We do NOT WANT Islam in the west. It's why Christians and Jews are not immigrating to Arab countries. We do not want any part of your culture. It's is a culture of the 7th century. It is a culture of cavemen. Stay AWAY from us.

If you live in the West it doesn't mean you got to dress like Billy the Kid. Orthodox religion will poison your mind, use your own reason. Averroes brought me here.

To all the Muslims of the west, if you don't like secular societies and you can't tolerate the essence of freedom of speech, just go to any country with sharia law and enjoy your life there...It is that simple, no fuss....But if you demand from secular societies to change in order for you to practice your religion unreformed, than it is simple again........FUCK OFF!!

Muslims will not integrate and even they dress different for they hate non muslims they are not allowed to befriend a non muslims, The simple thing the way muslims dress and grow beards they indicated that they want to be different and their ideology, not a religion is anti western anti democratic, the problem is that it will directly oppose any secular law for it is not laid down by islam they loathe the west and they will start to demand the sariah law as law of the land not Democratic but an autocratic system where freedom is denied, you follow sariah Law, and remember you the Non muslim will be their slave and the non muslim must submit to the muslim.....JT is working hard to get this accomplished..islam a wicked and evil ideology !!!!!!

i am muslim and i think niqab shouldnt be allowed, specially in thé west

Europe and west has gone pussies...they would be taken over by Muslims soon...all their females would be in haram and men killed...only we Asians would remain to fight these Muslims

Tom I agree we would have to do it in their country they know how to work the laws for their aims the west society couldn't do it n get away with it

They need to get the fuck out of the West. They are a threat to our civilization.

it would be something if they would go to a Muslim  country and live as Muslims.  not stay in Canada or the west.

Their plan is to destroy the West......that the citizens built with tax dollars......

08:03 So, WHY do they come to the West? WHY? I don't understand it. I wouldn't go there because I'm sort of Christian. So WHY be Muslim and come here since you h8 our culture? What's their purpose? Freedom? Or to spread Sharia? If freedom, you're welcomed in the West. Any other reason, you're not.

hOW ABOUT ,IF WESTERN WOMAN WEARING SHORT DRESSES,THERE CHOICE,BUT THEN MUSLIM MEN ARE CRITICISE THEM.WESTERNERS ARE NOT MUSLIMS.WHY ARE THE MUSLIMS IN THE WEST?

How the hell a liberal west allowed these miscreants to come here in the first place.

this is pure horse shit, while there is people afraid of muslims the west has created a society that prides itself on tolerance and inclusion. The full niqab is basically a wall to society saying I don't want to communicate or participate as eye contact and facial expressions determine how we interact with each other. If you feel the need to dress in a full veil I would suggest moving to a islamic society that would make you feel included.

I worked in a hotel on the west coast before and the hotel manager straight up told me to charge native american people more. If that isn't flat out racial profiling I don't know what is. Totally illegal but no one will do anything about it

Fuck me Canada too...... What the fuck is going on in the west, I don;t remember signing up to this suicide pact.

In west we associate masked people with killers, thieves, assassins and such. Because women are pretty equal to men, not at 100% but pretty close we desire women to be identifiable when on the streets just as men are identifiable on the streets. So covering your face will probably not be accepted if ever by diverse population like USA that harbours so many different religion on one space and all are supposed to be tolerant and accepted by others. Choice or not women cover their faces so that when men see them they won't have impure thoughts about them. You're not being respectful towards them by covering yourself, you acknowledge that they are weak in flesh and that it is a woman's fault that they are weak in flesh.

They may seem harmless now, but wait until muslims become the majority... That's when we'll truly see their true colours. It's only a matter of time until the entirety the west becomes a caliphate to the Islamic state. The west has become emasculated and weak, making it ripe for plundering.
