    The relatives of the mother and son beheaded by an African immigrant at an IKEA three days ago agree that it has been a failure.

    The difference lies in mass multiculturalism and low levels of controlled immigration. Individual people assimilate; groups on a scale now entering Europe do not and are not required to. Religion, values, traditions . . . all play a part in alienation and whereas previously this died out in the next generation, they’re remaining in Europe and being passed on to the next generation of immigrants.

    Poverty is not the sole cause of crime; Bernie Madoff, the Exxon executives and corporate leaders tell us that. Anywhere that a group identity takes hold, whether that’s corporatism, ghettoization, nationalism . . . you’ll see a corresponding rise in crime as their identity values replace a society consensus.

    The soundbites of ‘Diversity is our strength’ and ‘The world is just a great big onion’ have been a failure wherever they’ve been tried and even several European leaders who previously promoted it are now beginning to wake up. Canada has been spared this nightmare and are still at the stage of happy minority acceptance – elsewhere in the UK, Sweden, France . . . it’s tearing societies apart.

    The recipe for functional multiculturalism is akin to that of making a good Caesar salad dressing. The oil (metaphor for immigrants) needs to be added slowly while mixing vigorously, then the dressing becomes harmonious. Add the oil too fast and your dressing breaks and separates.

    What?

    If people have security, jobs, education, standard of life, decent housing and communities then racial issues are minimalized.

    True, there is also that factor, but if there are too many random people rushing into a country like they are running from a forest fire, who don't share the culture, and don't have the requisite qualifications for employment and hence decent housing etcetera, they tend to clump off into distinct and often resentful poor communities who recreate home and all that brings with it, in the new environment. They don't like the new culture and want nothing to do with it. Interactions with the domestic community are often abrasive.

    Don't get me wrong. Toronto has some sort of sketchy areas. But there really isn't an area that I would go at night. I can't say the same for US cities.
    Toronto is a pretty segregated city. It's a lot like US cities in that respect.

    Trying to change values and religion has already been tried in Afghanistan and Iraq; bribing people to change doesn’t work. If everyone was equally wealthy, had a good education, top level medical care . . . would it also make society equally cohesive? People have never been equal, so why the problem now?

    In other words, why weren’t immigrants rioting and refusing to assimilate fifty years ago? Something has obviously changed and that something is Islam and mass diverse multiculturalism, that says no one has to assimilate and all cultures are of equal value – even barbaric ones that are the complete opposite to western values.

    Spot the obvious – the ones rioting, screaming discrimination, the terrorists, Mr. Redneck in his trailer park, Ms. Middle class ‘Smash Capitalism’ activist . . . are the ones refusing to assimilate into the mainstream.

    Niet. I am well acquainted with Toronto. It does have ethnic areas, but they do not have the hostility of American ghettos. Toronto neighborhoods merge into each other, they don't have lines of demarcation where people fear crossing the line and worry about getting caught there at night. The ethnicity of neighborhoods is characterized by the restaurants more than the population inhabiting the area. Most of the ethnic areas are very old and the actual population of the neighborhoods don't really reflect the label on the neighborhood.

    OH! yes it is great. When we call the Canadian Furniture companies and distributors, located in Quebec , the won't speak English until we tell them we are from the USA.

    If you don't want to learn the language and customs of the nation that you are planning on moving too? then you really don't want to be a citizen. And you should stay where you are.
