WEARING THE HIJAB IS A RACIST STATEMENT

When I was doing voluteer work we offered services to various ethnic groups and in some cases I am sad to report that we were told ''we have our own services '' but what if the problems being lived by a person of that community STEMS FROM INSIDE of the think tank and cannot seek help outside that community ? By wearing the hijab the woman is offending other women who consider it a symbol of opression. Canadian women have fought hard tho reach equality and are still fighting for it and it drains their energy when they see these archaic practices taking them backwards.
A great number of muslim women refuse to wear the hijab and insist it is not an absolute rule of their religion. The soccer playing girl's own mother does not wear it so why pretend it is an obligation, it is simply provocation because the subject is hot right now, it is a racist statement.
Canadian women do not see themselves as she-monkeys belonging to this protected harem and Canadian women do not want to be controlled by Males who treat them as such.
We are being called the racists and yet we are told'' we take care of our own'' to me , that is racist. Canadians are amongst the most welcoming people ever. In Montreal most pharmacies are owned by Vietnamese people, The greeks have most of the restaurants, we have a Little Italy, a Chinatown etc..If we were racists no other group would have succeeded in this country, if certain groups do not wish to be part of the whole it is their choice but spare me the racist crap. '' My body is not for your eyes to behold '' Do they see all Canadian men as rapists ?
to me that is racism right there. PHOTO ASLA

HÉROUXVILLE HOUSE CLEANING SERVES IT'S PURPOSE
Certainly the whole Hérouville story creates a certain discomfort, but it well serves it's purpose of creating a platform for discussion.Politicians are caught between political careers and politics. The true racists that were wearing veils (no punn intended, well maybe yes) are coming out of the closet.One thing it has also done is help the communities of various sources to come out and express their own racism towards other races living in the Québec society. The little song written by the police officer was sent to me by a Brazilian immigrant, and she thought it was so funny, maybe because of our latino links. It has helped Canadians as a whole to question their own forms of racism. An American writes that we are wacked and I suppose we are a bit to get our soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan because of the Americans supposed liberation of the Iraqui people. A Muslim woman writes that Québec is a '' terre d'ignorance'' (land of ignorance) and that all women here in the 1800's were prostitutes and Québecers should learn their history,she needs to learn that most women were living in rural areas raising large families so clergy would smoke cigars,have the nicest buggies in town and scare the hell out of people '' they would all burn in hell.'' I like the way she ends her post with (...When the ignorant talks...) miror miror on the wall. We all need to learn history, mostly that of the country that grants us asylum, do we not?

The Hérouxville code got worldwide attention,but it gets people to realize that it is not just a little '' hick town '' problem it is planet-wide. It is natural that people find cultural differences from which we can all benefit. That is the very basis of the learning process any child goes through, differentiating colours, words, symbols. The child also is influenced by models and stories. Ali Baba and the fory thieves were not very Italian or German.They came from Arab countries which people did not know much about and in a way I suppose ,a lot of us still don't. Poor Sheherazade getting beheaded was a pratice we had'nt been used to other than hearing the Indians scalping our ancerters .The 911 EVENTS is however the ADULT story most people remember.
We don't block immigrants out at the border automatically, not in this part of North America, anyway. We don't have KKK, we are just using ONTARIO'S slogan. YOURS TO DISCOVER........and this is how we do things here. a

FACTS TO SUPPORT HÉROUXVILLE CODE

HÉROUXVILLE IS NOT MONTREAL but when headlines read

--Man must leave son's swimming class because there's a muslim woman at the pool
--Non Jewish man escorted out of Hospital for eating a ham sandwich on the premises
--Men cannot attend pre-natal classes if a muslim woman in the class
--Hospital staff must be female (including doctors) if muslim woman is attended to
--Only male Police officers must answer calls from a jewish sect
--Drivers licence bureau must assign Male only inspectors to male applicants
--indian boy allowed to carry knife to school when weapons are prohibited .....
--porc banned from school menus
--Hasidic Jews want City of Outremont to install a wire fence all around
the city so they can push baby strollers on sabbath.
--YWCA must cover windows so Jewish boys cannot see them exercising

WELL PEOPLE REACT AND THIS IS WHAT HÉROUXVILLE PEOPLE DID.
SO SOME PEOPLE CONSIDER THEM HICKS BUT TO THEM THE QUÉBEC GOV'T IS NOT DOING ANYTHING TO HELP IMPROVE THE SITUATION SO THEY USED WHATEVER LITTLE LEGAL MEASURES THEY HAD TO CREATE A DISCUSSION PLATFORM.

YES there are Federal and Provincial charters in Canada to protect the rights of people but NONE of the above demands or rather IMPOSITIONS ARE IN THERE. Immigrants can practice their religion but not impose archaic beliefs on others.

What Herouxville is saying is HERE women have the same rights, and female police officers are as competent as men and so are our driving inspectors as are our male doctors. Here Porc is not full or worms as it is in torrid countries, Here weapons are illegal in schools,IT'S JUST THAT SIMPLE ,BUT TO BRING ATTENTION ,SARCASM IS USED TO DEMONSTRATE SOME OF THE BARBARIC RITUALS THEY WOULD NOT WANT TO SEE IMPOSED ON THEM.

HEROUXVILLE PEOPLE ARE SAYING, WE MAY BE A LITTLE COUNTRY VILLAGE
BUT WE ARE NOT SAVAGES WHO JUMP ON WOMEN AND RAPE THEM. THEY ARE SAYING WE DO NOT WANT TO ADOPT SOME OF YOUR WAYS AND BECOME LIKE GORILLAS PROTECTING THEIR FEMALE HAREM.WE LIVE IN A CIVILIZED COUNTRY.
DON'T TURN BACK THE CLOCK 2007 YEARS AGO.

If that logic cannot be understood why is it that following a fire in a(WHITE) school, children had to be sheltered in a muslim building until the parents came to get them, the kids had to remove all shoes and the girls had to put scarfes on their heads. IF it applies in this case that ONE HAS TO RESPECT THE REGULATIONS OF WHERE ONE IS then why is it not the same in everyday life?
IT IS SIMPLY A MATTER OF PEOPLE NOT WANTING TO SEE THEMSELVES LIVING AS IF THEY WERE IN THESE WAR TORN COUNTRIES WHERE CHURCH AND STATE ARE NOT SEPARATE.IF THEY COME HERE IT IS BECAUSE THEY EXPECT SOMETHING BETTER THAN WHAT THEY HAD BACK HOME

IF SOME RELIGIOUS LEADERS ARE OFFENDED AND FEEL THAT CANADIANS HAVE MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT THEM IT IS PERHAPS BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT MADE SUFFICIENT EFFORTS TO INTEGRATE IN ORDER TO HAVE US UNDERSTAND WHAT THEIR RELIGION IS ALL ABOUT BUT IT IS A WAY OF LIFE NOT JUST A RELIGION THEY WISH TO IMPOSE

HÉROUXVILLE '' THE QUÉBEC PULSE ''

THE FRENCH ARTICLE IS NOT ABOUT THE PEOPLE OF HÉROUXVILLE BEING A BUNCH OF VIGILANTES TAKING THE LAW INTO THEIR OWN HANDS, IT IS SIMPLY TO SAY THAT ''QUÉBÉCOIS '' HAVING GOTTEN RID OF THE CATHOLIC RELIGION SO TO SPEAK DO NOT WANT AN EVEN MORE ARCHAIC RELIGION CONTROLING THEIR LIVES.
ONCE MORE THEY HAVE PROVEN THAT FAR FROM BEING A BUNCH OF ''HICKS'' THEY CAN USE HUMOUR AND SARCASM AS A PLATFORM FOR DISCUSSION INSTEAD OF THE MACHINE GUN AS IT WOULD BE THE CASE IN SOME OTHER COUNTRIES.

CULTURAL GENOCIDE IS WHAT IT IS CALLED

There were 10 little Christmas trees, then there were nine,then ......

and then there were none. CULTURAL GENOCIDE IT IS CALLED.

The next step

THERE WERE 10 MAPLE LEAFS , THEN THERE WERE 9 , THEN ....

THERE WAS ONLY ONE LEFT,
IT WAS ON THE CANADIAN FLAG

AND NOW THERE ARE NONE. IT HAS BEEN TAKEN OVER BY OTHER
