Hi Guys/Bramptonians,

Just read it in the news that there are some anti-immigrants flyers being circulated in Brampton. Has someone come across this personally?

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/toronto/police-investigating-anti-immigration-flyers-distributed-in-brampton/article18199010/

What's going on there in Brampton?

Are some people from the mainstream (read 'Caucasian') community feel so much threatened by the changes in the social fabric that they are now openly spreading something like this?

What is weired is the group that took responsibility of the action is based in BC. Well, we have our own version of Brampton in the form of 'Surrey'.

I also read the Yahoo's comments section for this story, and alarmed to see virtually ALL opined against immigration. With some, the borderline racist. This just alarmed me to think as to what the mainstream Caucasian population actually thinks about us immigrants. Not painting them as 'Racists', but Yahoo comments made me think about the hidden opinions of the mainstream/native community, which they don't normally express openly. At the same time, some comments are funny and completely ignorant about fact that each legal skilled immigrant brings in about $10,000 to this country.

These things may go on happening , it does not affect anything .

If the demographics are changing based on an ethnicity , that s just a fact to be accepted .
