Haw are support for a Canadian-values test and support for immigration related? I'm not pro-immigration per se but rather just pro-open borders. Whether people want to migrate or not aught to be left up to them.
Yet I don't support a Canadian-values test on practical grounds among many others. Firstly, who will define Canadian values. Secondly, how do we ensure that a person hasn't just memorized the desired answer?
So if a Hindu decides to wear a t-shirt with a swastika on it, what should we do about him?
Depends on the context.
It would certainly invite skepticism, but if the intention was not discriminatory and clearly no one was affected, then it wouldn't matter.
Easy. If you don't meet the leftie values you are persona non grata.
How is a tattoo discriminatory and a T shirt isn't?
The White Nationalist Lefty Nazis, of course.
It could be either or both depending on the situation.
(Also, turn off your stupid)
I believe in open borders, and one could interpret any opposition to open borders except maybe for the most legitimate security reasons as being motivated by nationalism or discrimination on the basis of nationality, and some understand discrimination on the basis of nationality to be as illegitimate as discrimination on the basis of age, race, sex, language, religion, etc.
So, should we ban all expressions of opposition to open borders as hate speech?

Nope. What might offend one might be acceptable by many.
Appeasing the individual isn't what democracy is all about.
Borders only exist as a means of defining a set of legislation to a particular territory.
How can any system be the appeasement of one person?
(You're really getting dumber by the second now.)
They apply to the people ascribed to that territory too, even when abroad. For example, a person labelled as Canadian can get Canadian consular services abroad while a non-Canadian in Canada is not recognized as having the same rights even though he is inhabiting the same territory due to his having been legally labelled differently based on place of birth or some other arbitrary criterion like nationality of parents, etc. as if it's somehow genetic.
Of course.
But let's not assume that legislation truly represents everyone's values.
That's why a 'Canadian Values' test is a disingenuous moniker.

After reading through this entire topic I've come to the conclusion that not only do you not know what you are writing about, you don't care what you are writing about and you only do it to provoke people. You are, I fear, a very shallow little man. Pity, that.
