But I am definetly in your guys' corner when it comes to the frevrent hope that this does not sour the excellent relationship Canadian society has enjoyed with our muslim members!
I guess my optimism comes from the warmth and sense of beloning I received from Canada since day one. I was not born there, but have spent most of my life there....and despite being an alophone, and of a different ethnicity than most of my Canadian friends, I have NEVER once been made to feel like an outsider...I am as Canadian as any (with perhaps the first nations being the only exception)....this has also been true for all of my muslim friends...which is why I hope that this never changes despite the lunatic antics of a few.
Stay safe all.
Perfection does not exist. The question therefore, is: what level of imperfection are we willing to settle for?
