Our Voice Joins Together, Our Hearts As One...

When a foreign government is spreading hate propaganda in Canada, our government should act swiftly to tell the embassy that this kind of behaviour will not be tolerated. Despite the reciprocal diplomatic immunity agreements countries maintain, having offices on Canadian soil is a privilege and the foreign country is still a guest in Canada. As the host country, we set the rules of acceptable behaviour just as we would for guests in our home. I would not allow anyone staying in my home to do anything illegal and Canada should not either.
