After welcoming almost 12,000 refugees to their region, three-quarters of Canadians living in the province of Ontario now say that Muslim immigrants hold fundamentally different values and a majority believe mainstream Islam promotes violence, according to a new survey to be released this week.
The survey was funded by the province and the city of Toronto as part of a joint educational campaign “to address xenophobia, Islamophobia, and anti-immigrant sentiments.”
While 60 percent of Ontarians say they initially supported the decision to import Syrian refugees, 75 percent now say Muslim immigrants hold fundamentally different values and a majority now say Islam’s mainstream doctrines promote violence. Only one-third of those in the region have a positive impression of the religion.
Three-quarters of Ontarians wish their country would focus on taking care of its own citizens instead of devoting resources to foreign refugees.
Gee, ya think? They're ever so slowly catching on.
too late ! now they are here and breeding the next generation!
I wonder if the Toronto Star will secede from Toronto given its world picture of islam refuges as peaceful grandmothers and babies.
Living in Dumbassistan, knows no bounds!!
No S*#T Kilroy . . . just now figuring that out?
So when Canadians say this it's worth a serious look. When Americans say this it's discounted because we are bigots. I will gladly subscribe to the xenophobe and Islamaphobia moniker. Gladly. Their culture of violence and killing of women/gays for nothing is loathsome. I will apologize to no one for holding that view.
This poll is a great sign. Thank you for posting this.
“After Importing Thousands Of Refugees, Canadians Now Say.....
“.....oh, sh*t.”
Canadian xenophobes! Send all Ontario residents to sensitivity training!
Remember when people like me warned you about Muslims.
And you laughed and sneered and gave us the finger and a condescending lecture about how much you care?
Well, I’ll just remind you: complaining about them is racist.
You think? Well duh...
Trudeau compared these Muslims to the Boat People
Canadians a little slow in the mental processing department, eh?
phobia - an extreme or irrational fear of or aversion to something.
remember - it’s not a phobia if the fear is rational.
They voted for Trudeau.
Stupid should hurt.
What? You mean Canadians don't want to detonate themselves?
I have travelled all over the world (and still do for business) and lived in several different Asian countries for longer than a decade.
All of that has made me a cultural chauvinist. I don’t apologize for it. The simple fact is, some cultures and societies are far better than others - more peaceful, more free, more ordered, better run, more prosperous, more generous. I will also admit when other peoples or cultures are better than ours at doing certain things - and indeed, there are.
And at the other end, there are societies that are simply BAD. Places like Pakistan, as one example, are backward, violent places that degrade people’s humanity. Some will blame outsiders, poverty, or whatever - but truth is, it is simply THEIR CULTURE. Why anyone allows its citizens into their country is totally beyond me.
Stephen Harper was right , lets send money and supplies to them over there and not bring them here
