Re: What's wrong with Canada?
I am very disappointed. Reading all your comments make me really sad that you don't respect different cultures and people of different countries. If Canada is so bad why immigrate. If you like to stay exactly the same way as you are and not learning new things from new people you might as well stay where you are. I think people are free to try new life. If you think Canada is full of immigrant then don't immigrate there because you would be one of them!
Then you pop up with an equally unfocused and inexplicable remark.
What's a man to do?

Re: What's wrong with Canada?
One chooses to immigrate to Canada because Canada imposes no obligation of assimilation; there's no obligation to invent nor subscribe to a "Canadian culture". One remains a Londoner (or in the case of the less fortunate, merely English) living abroad. It's all about the hyphenation.

Re: What's wrong with Canada?
To be fair the idea of escaping immigration by becoming one is so widely mentioned in the UK nowadays that it is not generally possible to use it ironically anymore.
