I agree somewhat to what your saying...I moved to Canada about 6 years ago, I love this city its great....wouldnt wanna be anywhere else...ok maybe ibiza, but thats about it....people are great and friendly...but at the same time, we are not very proactive about having an opinion. We shy away from arguments, or someones point of view. What Canadians dont realise is, that yes, we are polite and we are fairly hospitable, but we should use all this to bring out constructive conversation. and that is how you get new ideas and you get understanding. I dont mind people objecting my faith or my activities as long as it is not insulting and vice versa.

95% of us think that if someone disagrees with us, it's because something is wrong with THEM.
