The comments ring of continued assimilation via the old protestant values of our current government. I hope this is just one MP, and the we can all actual move on from here and start dealing with the issues that separate us all, and avoid the blame game.
PS- I have read this forum for sometime and have avoided getting involved in the discussion. The events of today changed that, as I felt it necessary to provide some positive posts in this thread.
