Canadian media is so trash. Wallahi even Fox News is less xenophobic.

Somalis are Sufi when it comes to outsiders(other somalis tho) and seemingly couldn't give a shit at how we're portrayed.

“We’re really excited to help them,” said Ubah Farah, a Somali woman living in Toronto. “We want them to have a better experience than we experienced when we came 25 years ago.”

Mr. Yusuf knows that many of the new arrivals will have received coats from the United Nations or Canadian authorities. He still thinks the extra gear will be useful.

“Who doesn’t need two coats?” he said

By the early nineties, racial tension was spilling into the open. A Place Called Dixon, a CBC documentary that aired in 1993, revealed ugly attitudes among long-time residents.

“A tribal community should never have been dumped in a condominium corporation,” one elderly white condo owner said. “It’s like you can’t mix oil and water.”

Worse were the security guards hired to monitor the Somalis. One of them patrolled the buildings with two German shepherds that he had named Allah and Mohammed.

. Those who stayed were often hostile to the Somalis, resenting their habit of filling a single unit with eight or 10 people, and their boisterous outdoor celebrations.

Europe is tribal states and you should see the streets on the weekends or after a football match. Everyone is loud but at least Somalis won't vomit and wee on your doorstep in the early hours of the morning. Canadians are the savages who nearly wiped out an entire nation of people. How do you worship these people AbdiJohnson?

Teenage boys were an especially hard case. Shaken by war back home and unused to the drudgery of the classroom, many of them became restless and violent. Children and parents alike were stunned by the strictness of the official reaction to hallway scuffles.

Stir-crazy Somali children were also hastily diagnosed with attention-deficit disorder and developmental delays, which offended their parents and stigmatized the students.

@Shamis the British and French did that. Not Canadians

There were complaints of noise, vandalism, petty crime and overcrowded elevators. Owner-residents complained that the Somalis were urinating, defecting and smoking khat in the staircases.

Canadian Somalis sound crazy as hell.

Canadians AbdiJohnson, the plan was a settler colony and that's what Canada is.
