@sunny: This is a hard conversation, but avoiding it is not helping anyone. Most newcomers come to Canada wanting safety, opportunity, and a better life for their families. They should not be judged by the actions of strangers who share their background. At the same time, Canadians are allowed to care about their communities, public spaces, language, and the culture they built here. Both things can be true. The answer is not blaming every immigrant, and it is not pretending there are no integration problems worth talking about. It is expecting better from the system, from our communities, and from ourselves—while treating each other like individuals. I want to hear from Canadians and newcomers alike. Keep it respectful: what does successful integration actually look like to you?

I have a very close Indian friend who once shared a story with me about when he first arrived in Canada 25 years ago. He was only 19 at the time. When he and his family first moved into their apartment, he would throw garbage off the balcony. One day, the neighbour living below them, who was also Indian, came upstairs and gave him a real piece of her mind. She explained that if he wanted to live in India, he and his family should have stayed there. She told him, “You’re in Canada now. Respect your new country and don’t treat it the way you treated the country you left behind.” It was certainly a powerful learning moment for a young man just starting a new life in a new country. Sometimes, the most valuable lessons come from people who aren’t afraid to tell us what we need to hear.

To be fair, it used to be more difficult to get into Canada with the points system we had so we had more wealthy immigrants and less social problems that contribute to discrimination.

I went to very diverse school. Learning that Canada was a cultural mosaic when I was a kid filled me with such pride

my best friend growing up in Etobicoke in the 1970's was from India and his family would cook north American meals when I stayed over.. they did a version of Thanksgiving, put up a tree and Christmas lights and participated in Halloween.. they were wonderful, warm, caring people who loved their own culture but tried very hard to let their children assimilate into Canadian culture and they loved it.

As a white guy who grew up in the 90s it killed me when my Indian friend sampaul's mother showed up to my place after school to pick him up. I was told to my face because we were white he would not be allowed to speak to me again.

In the 90s there was so much acceptance and love between cultures. But not much relationship to reservations. Now too much American media influence.

Straight up. No one understands what the word racist means anymore. Just because you have different of opinions does not make you racist

"where did that go" you were more or less forced to learn other peoples culture because there was so few of you. now theres so many you can do what the muslims do in france, germany, UK etc and just created communities where you only interact with eachother and feel no need to engage in other groups.

You’re very right. Something DID change, and I believe xenophobia has been fuelled by online hate, and the acceptance of vile behaviour since 2014. I love learning about new, integrated cultures. At the same time, I feel like you’re right about values and accepted ‘norms’ like how we respect the environment and maintain our communities. Maybe more learning would help. Good idea.
