We’re done. Canada has bent over backwards to be the world’s welcoming committee, but the line has been crossed. Our streets are now battlegrounds for foreign conflicts, with newcomers refusing to integrate and instead dragging their grudges into our cities. From Muslims blocking Toronto’s major roads for prayers to Palestinian protesters chanting for Israel’s destruction, to pro-Iran groups decrying Israel’s actions, and now Khalistani separatists calling for the assassination of India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi—this isn’t diversity; it’s chaos. Canadians are fed up with being held hostage by groups who show no interest in becoming part of our nation.
Let’s be clear: these protests aren’t about fitting in or contributing to Canada. They’re about importing feuds from thousands of miles away. In Toronto, Muslim groups shut down streets like Yonge and Dundas for public prayers, stopping traffic and disrupting lives without a hint of regard for the people around them. Palestinian protests, some drawing 25,000 in a single weekend, block bridges and public squares while shouting antisemitic slogans or calling for Israel’s annihilation. Pro-Iran demonstrators are now out in force, defending a regime most Canadians want no part of. And the Khalistanis? They’re staging “referendums” and burning effigies of Modi in Vancouver and Brampton, with some openly demanding the expulsion of 800,000 Indo-Canadians. At a Toronto Khalsa Day event, one loudmouth with a megaphone called for “eight lakh Bharti” to be deported. This isn’t activism—it’s division, plain and ugly.
Two-thirds of Canadians say these protests have disrupted their daily lives in the past six months, and they’re not exaggerating. Whether it’s pro-Palestinian groups shutting down Parliament Hill, Khalistanis targeting Indian consulates, or pro-Iran rallies clogging city centers, these actions show zero respect for the country hosting them. A Montreal synagogue needed a court order to keep protesters 50 meters away after they trapped worshippers inside while spewing hate. Police, meanwhile, are too busy tiptoeing around feelings to enforce the law—some even delivered coffee to bridge-blocking protesters in Toronto, as if they’re guests at a café instead of lawbreakers. Three-quarters of Canadians want protests stopped when laws are broken, but apparently, that’s too much to ask.
The core issue isn’t just the disruptions—it’s the refusal to integrate. Canada has always embraced newcomers, but the deal is simple: you join our society, respect our laws, and leave your old fights behind. These groups aren’t doing that. They’re not waving Canadian flags or rallying for Canadian causes. They’re turning our cities into stages for conflicts we didn’t sign up for. Khalistani protesters aren’t just anti-India—they’re attacking Indo-Canadian communities, vandalizing Hindu temples, and sowing fear among people who’ve built lives here. Pro-Palestinian and pro-Iran groups aren’t engaging in dialogue; they’re shouting down anyone who disagrees, targeting Jewish businesses and neighborhoods. This isn’t about free speech—it’s about forcing foreign agendas on a country that’s done nothing but open its doors.
Canadians are sick of it. Two-thirds of us see these protests as raising awareness but changing nothing—half say they don’t even shift policy or opinions. So why are we letting our streets become war zones for causes that don’t belong here? Non-white Canadians, including Indigenous and minority communities, are especially frustrated, with many noting police play favorites, letting some groups break laws while cracking down on others. We’re too polite, too afraid of being called bigots, to say what needs saying: integrate or leave. Canada isn’t your personal battleground. You don’t get to block our roads, harass our citizens, or demand we pick sides in your wars.
It’s time to grow a spine. Arrest protesters who break laws, no exceptions. Deport those who incite violence or spread hate, whether it’s against Jews, Hindus, or anyone else. And make it clear: if you come to Canada, you join Canada—not remake it into the place you left. We’re not your doormat, and we’re done pretending otherwise.
