For instance - in this article - they wanted their parents to be allowed to stay in Canada because they couldn't find a babysitter....WTF?!?!? A real Estate Agwent making 3% commision PLUS salary - cannot afford a baby sitter...BS. I know single mothers working in Call Centre's for $10/hr, who can afford day care on top of other living expenses.

The other - is the Turbanator fella - who feels he shouldn't have to wear a helmet to ride his motorcycle, because his religion doesnt accept covering his turban. Seriously now.....WTF......"its a violation of human rights" he says.....blow me buddy! The law is there for your own personal safety, and those around you. If you were riding your bike without your helmet and I hit you - seeing your head explode on the pavement, will seriously do me some mental anguish

My parents came to Canada back in the 70's - and yes, they had to cram into a small apartment, had the worst FOB accent, and shopped at K-Mart for pretty much everything. But they didnt ask the media to do a story on helping bring my grandparents over.....or ask that everyone be nice to the new Filipino family on the block...they were grateful for being allowed to raise their family in this country - and kept their mouth shut about the differences in political and social environments.
