I still don't understand your comment about my country of origin in this regard.
If I was black, or even Asian, I would be considered a minority though. I am caucasian, so now I am not.
So basicly, i don't get this comment either.
And I admit to being sometimes obtuse in my comments. You and I are, as people of European ancestry, members of the majority in Canada. We are, so to speak, the ruling elite. However, this country is composed of three founding societies, two of which are European and one which is indigenous. What makes our country the wonderful place it is is the interaction between these three. Now we are adding, as you pointed out, people from other cultures as well. Our history of interaction with each other (Aboriginal, English and French) puts us in a unique place to invest these other people into our society. What irritates me are people who think a monolithic culture is our goal, where everyone submits to the will of an English Canadian model of our Country.
right. So every European immigrant (no matter when they immigrated into the country)is responsible, but the Asian or "other cultures" you are talking about have nothing to do with the native issues?
