Pit race against race, religion against religion, prejudice against prejudice. Divide and conquer! We must not let that happen here.

And while Canada purports to be multicultural, Toronto in particular, a place where everyone is holding hands and cops are handing out ice cream cones instead of, say, shooting black men, our inability to talk about race and its complexities actually means our racism is arguably more insidious. We rarely acknowledge it, and when we do, we're punished, as if we're speaking badly of an elderly relative who can't help but make fun of the Irish. The white majority doesn't like being reminded that the cultural landscape is still flawed, still broken...

Every reform movement has a lunatic fringe.

It is scarcely the same thing to put a man on the Moon as to put a bone in your nose.

Society is unity in diversity.

Its our eyes and minds that allow to see difference, but its our humanity that truly allows us to see past it.
