Situation is Different from US - for now
Reader comment on item: Canadian Islam Is Healthier
in response to reader comment: Disappointing

Submitted by James Burke (Canada), Jun 1, 2007 at 15:16

Montreal, Qc

Islam is present here but despite comments I have heard, infrequent demonstrations of Hamas supporters in downtown Montreal ( with participation of lovcal Quebecois politicians),

there has not been any violence re: "sudden jihad" events like in the US:

Fort Dix, LAX airport, shooting at Utah shopping mall, criminal driving with rented vehicle, invasion of Jewish center like in Seattle, etc..

Or in Eurabia:

rapes in Norway, Brussels, Sweden, demonstrations in London, requests to remove the cross in Italy, etc.

Because Islam here has not yet reached a mass where the muslims feel confident to attack .

But given the birth rates, that day should arrive within a decade. Two decades at most. As it will arrive in South America.

It has in every other country in the world
