think of this if you live in canada, you are canadian
But, if you live in america you do not consider yourself to be off american blood. you consider yourself all of the ethnicities that make you up. i say that majority of all people in america should call themselves americans, by bringing up your ancestrial heritage you keep racism alive.


I keep hearing from Canadians about how much better their country is with regards to race relations but didn't Quebec almost split away into their own separate country just a short time ago?

I would personally like to see everything equal, but it will be awhile and be hard. I personally hate having quota's on things like having to have a certian number of a race in a certian position, no matter their qualifications. I know and am happy that things like this is going away, since it hurts those more qualified to do the job.
I also think a lot of people in America will call themselves American's, but don't look upon that as a race. People like their racial heritage, I personally do and even though I consider myself an American by culture I know and recognize my European blood, go Irish :)

Maetryx here, :cool:

If you asked the Aleut and other native groups in Canada if they felt like Canadians, I'll bet they do not. Recently they had their own province carved out of the northern portions of two other provinces (I can't remember which two, but I think Yukon Territories is one).

Canada has a sharp language divide also, Quebec being predominantly French, the rest being English. And last time I was in Victoria, B.C., there was a good sized China town in the heart of that city.

I'm not buying this theory of a perfectly unified Canada. The divisions may not be black and white, but they exist.

I think there's a Chinatown in every country! :)

From watching "Kiss of the Dragon", it seems that France even has a Chinatown.
