As a Brit I love that my country belongs to the world and not to its native peoples. In my head I tell myself that this is natural, normal and healthy. It makes me feel virtuous and better than others.

@@captainmeowzers The question is.. if you're against colonization of the native peoples of Canada's lands, then why are you for mass migration? You want to see the unique diversity of Canada destroyed?

What does this have to do with hijab ?🤦‍♂️ Funny how u also say culture in the same sentence. As far as I know, hijab isn't even an arab culture, it's was an imported thing when some arab women saw women went to the Byzantine Empire and saw their women covering their hair. Then they copied them because they thought it was more cultured and then they somehow threw a religious label on it.

Anyone else see the irony??? Mohammed Ahmed speaks of forgetting culture & hijab...whilst writing in English, and no doubt has also enjoyed a western country's protection etc.. probably claimed asylum in a western country etc. 🤔🤔🤦

@Arabian Princess hhh stupid sycophant you are! muslim women come to Europe and wear their hijabs against all odds. shameless countries like Switzerland and France did everything including banning Hijab and praise be to God, our women didn't remove their hijab. if there is freedom in Europe as you stupidly believe then tell them women have the right to wear their hijab.

@@midei Don't play down the numbers, she is insignificant on the grand scheme of things but she's one in millions of people who comes from all over the world. You talk about humanity but you only expect it in the western hemisphere. Oil money could help... She/they share value with nearly a quarter of the world, yet a lot of the burden goes to the same 750m people. So when people ask 'why here not there?" They are asking "where is their humanity?" Africa and Asia do their bit, but what about the wealthy countries in the middle east?????
