I like that idea, it's why I'm a Libertarian.....although I do have a strong belief in American exceptionalism and that if we're in a war then we should do what it takes to win the war and prevent another war shortly thereafter due to a lopsided treaty.
No that's what you mean. You don't need to be a classical liberal to believe in liberty and political freedom. And its hard to figure out what we are as Canadians, melting pot or mosaic. I don't know the answer. A bit of both I suppose.
Alright, so you are 100% cool with the idea of another culture coming to your nation, NOT conforming to the laws of your nation but expecting YOU to conform to their laws that they have brought with them?

Because THAT is what I'm irritated at, I love immigrants from anywhere and everywhere, this nation was built on the idea that it doesn't matter who your Dad is or who your family is, you can succeed here regardless of any previous class or caste system you may have been a part of....but people coming here wishing to say this is your caste, this is your class, our ideas are better and more worthwhile than the founders of this nation....I'm sorry America did not become what it is today by accepting any old idea that made its way to Ellis Island.
