Man, my fellow Canadians are going stupid
Read the comments to this article... a baby is born in a free country after her parents fled across the ocean to safety on a rusty boat and these people are insulting the baby.

1. Tell those fucks that if they keep this bullshit up, Canadians abroad will start having to put...
patches with the American flag on their backpacks.

Harper's perversion or democracy, now this kind of xenophobia and hatred. Bad signs for the great white north.

3. Yeah, hopefully we can get him outta there soon
What sickens me most is his most recent attempts to pit us against each other... it's the same model as Republicans and their "real America" bullshit. Harper's cronies keep talking about the "Toronto Elite" whoever the fuck that is.

4. I'll tell ya something, and I'm not even kidding
I live in China and will be for a few more years. I'm with a woman right now and we're talking about getting married. I've told her that there's no way I'd raise kids here, so we'll move to Canada at some point. Reading this hateful shit from these pieces of garbage infuriates me so much cause I know that they are more less referring to her too.

I am actually worried about her if she goes to Canada. Not worried about violence or anything. Worried that she may read all this shit when there and feel like a second class human or something. It sickens me.

5. I get your point and that's just so sad.
I hope it's not more than a small minority. At least you're not going to have to bring her here, like to Arizona or something.

10. it's ironic since rupert murdoch, one of the prime movers in stirring up the hate, is himself
married to a chinese woman.

they don't even believe the crap they spout, they just want people to fight each other.

11. A mean can of worms
has been opened and it seems people feel comfortable expressing hate and bigotry - with pride.
Lots of fear out there.

13. Hey, if Sweden even has its slice of rw anti-immigrant teabaggers, then every country (even
Canada) must have a few, right?
