I've said before that one of the many things I admire about Asians is that they lack white guilt. Their ability to reason and their instinct for self-preservation (i.e. their capacity for common sense) have not been encumbered by social conditioning, mass media and the like. This is a perfect example, one of the best I've seen.
Markham is an expensive suburb. Chinese immigrants who live there had to pay a lot of money to get there. It typically takes many years and many tens of thousands of dollars to move from China to Canada. They aren't willing to watch generations of hard work and responsible planning get pissed away because our Prime Minister is a cuck.
Imagine the news coverage had the protestors been white. e.g. CNN: "Canadian arm of alt-right stages violent protest against housing refugee children", etc.
Therefore, maybe we Canadians need Asians to do our fighting for us. We need another culture to combat insidious multiculturalism. Kind of a Catch-22.

Fists fly, and so does a megaphone, as refugee crisis inflames local politics in Toronto area
The protest was an illustration of the truism that all politics is local, and that even global crises can become ballot questions in municipal council races
From the moment a protester grabbed a counter-protester’s megaphone and hurled it into the fountain of the Markham Civic Centre, Saturday’s demonstration against illegal border crossings and their effect on suburban Toronto degenerated quickly into violence and anger.
Police arrived to separate men who had thrown a few punches, and others who seemed about to, including one man who was pushing another as he held up a sign reading “Not In My Back Yard,” according to video captured by Ming Pao Daily News.
It was a small rally of a few dozen mainly Chinese-Canadian protesters in Markham, a city northeast of Toronto, and hundreds of kilometres from any land border with the United States. Nevertheless, as the demonstration was met by a smaller group of pro-refugee protesters, it became a flashpoint in the North American refugee crisis, with Markham’s mayor, Frank Scarpitti, as the unlikely main target.
At issue was a rumour that Markham was about to agree to house as many as 5,000 asylum seekers in unused buildings, after Toronto asked for help accommodating an overflow.
“Say NO to Mayor Frank!” read several signs in identical red lettering. Others played off the recent shooting rampage in Toronto: “Do Not Let Tragedy Happen In Markham.”
“MARKHAM SAY NO TO ILLEGAL BORDER CROSSERS,” another read. “ILLEGAL FREE RIDER NOT INVITED.”
Many of the opposing, pro-refugee signs were branded with the logo of the Canadian Union of Public Employees.
A woman spoke to the crowd in Mandarin, rhetorically addressing the government as she described the question of Canada’s response to asylum seekers as one primarily of public safety.
“It should not be this way,” she said, seemingly on the verge of angry tears. “You (the government) have to make sure that we’re safe.”
It was an illustration of the truism that all politics is local, and that even global crises can become ballot questions in municipal council races.
The day before, the nomination period had closed on the mayoral election in Markham, in which the incumbent Scarpitti is being challenged by four candidates who signed up at the last minute.
One of those challengers, Steven Chen, a real estate agent, said in an interview he was not at the protest and knew nothing about it until he saw the news.
“Everything illegal, that’s a problem. Not just refugees,” he said in an interview.
