What I find interesting is how CBCs who's families have been here for generations view some of the odd (for lack of a nicer word) behaviour of the new immigrants/visitors. How it hurts them to see the hard work of their ancestors, who have toiled to build up a good reputation amongst other Canadians - enduring generations of racism and brunt of jokes, get destroyed in an instant.

I recall one RS member commenting, "Please let it not be Chinese..........." after hearing of someone doing something distasteful. I'm not sure if there are any groups out there that help these people acclimatize to our accepted practices and norms of social behaviour. I was going to say, "culture," but that isn't the right term, is it?

Dirty look from MG1 can melt steel beams.
