- This issue will not be treated any differently when the next boatload arrives, all of our politicians from all party,s will continue to follow the politically correct path they are presently on,as it is far more important to them than actually doing anything constructive regarding the problem.they already know full well how to prevent boatloads of illegals from entering Canada but will continue to ignore the wishes of the majority of Canadians and suck up to the U.N. as some of them seek future appointments with the U.N. My opinion is the Government represents other nations people before they even consider the needs of those they were elected to represent

- @Let the voters decide. You just have to look across from the standing Government to those who feel they should still be running the country and their pets, the NDP.

- I can't believe no one in our Government has thought about this. Its a no brainer. TURN THE BOAT AROUND. Next opt out of the UN; we can't afford to keep throwing money at third world nations when nothing has changed in the past 50 years. Next, allow only English and French (our two official languages) speaking immigrants in as long as they have a job to go to and aren't a drain on our systems (educational, medical and judicial). If they have a criminal record, you photograph them, finger print them and then escort them back to where they came from. The cost to taxpayers to teach those English, free medical, free education and on and on cannot be sustained any more. The money we save from opting out of the UN will help pay down our debt.

- Leave it to politicians and lawyers to cloud a very simple issue. Turn the fricking boats around and don't let them enter Canadian waters. It's that simple.

- Steve, hopefully by the time the little freeloader turns 18 the laws will have changed to prevent him/her from sponsoring anyone from 3rd world countries. Let just keep our fingers crossed shall we.

- This clown didn't have to go to Australia to find out what they are doing, my gosh, this is why we have telephones, internet, video conferencing etc... Canada seems to love throwing money away, money they claim we don't have. Gather up all the immigrants that dont need to be here and lets start saving some money, stop these unecessary "business" trips that us tax payers are paying for. and for heavens sake, BAN THE HIJAB!!! and TURBAN WEARING at places of employment!. Thanks.

- We should consult with the Sri Lankan administration and they know how to keep the refugees in the camps without anyone visiting them or to kill them enmasse. Can we send some to Sri Lanka to learn lessons on these

- Has our newest Canadian from the MV Sun Sea popped out yet. The little tyke can sponsor scores of relatives when he reaches 18 and is still living off welfare

- Canada is one of about 147 states who sign-up to the 1951 Convention on asylum seekers. Opting-out is a choice. Canada's supreme court decision on rights when on Canadian soil could be neutralized with the not withstanding clause. Some choices are; Temporary residencies and hope we can find them later. Opt-out of Convention on asylum seekers. Not-withstanding clause. Ship them to an agreeable third country.

- It's funny how the boat load of "refugees" didn't try to dock in the US (which is actually closer).

- 1951 Geneva Convention on asylum seekers, article 33. â– Although both customary international law and the Geneva Convention require that contracting states not return (refoule) refugees to the country where they fear persecution, such states are not required to permit them to stay permanently. As well, they are not prohibited from returning refugees to a third country, unless that country would likely return them to the country where they fear persecution. â– The right of refugees not to be refouled is not absolute. A state is entitled to place its own security interests ahead of the rights of the refugee; it also has the right to refuse refuge to people convicted of serious crimes and who thereby pose a danger to the receiving society.

- Send all illegals back for any reason and have their goverment and peoples pay for this mess. It is a total mockery of our legal system to let these people run all over our system - there by proving we have no real system at all. A trip to Australia is only going to provide this person with a good tan and nothing else. He could of just called them or contacted his counterparts over the internet. What a continued waste again of taxpayers money. Does any body in our current Goverment have any brains at all. Are they smarter than a 6th grader?

ProfElwood at 7:15 AM September 11, 2010 If it's been called off (okay, suspended), then what are they protesting? This isn't from our government, it's certainly not anything from mainstream America, and I have yet to read anyone supporting this guy. They've got to be protesting something bigger than a few nuts.
armandaleg at 6:55 AM September 11, 2010 As we are approaching the brink of religious war, and this threat is poised only to grow, we must take action to avert this conflict
As both Western and European nations have been built on religious freedom, outlawing any or all religions remains impossible.
To preserve this fundamental right, and avert future war, all religious organizations are hereby outlawed.
Citizens may still hold beliefs, they may gather in their homes, and they may discuss religion freely, however no religious buildings or organizations shall be deemed legal. (i.e. churches, synagogues, mosques, temples, etc.)
All current religious buildings must be either sold to legal businesses, or demolished. All countries that do not adopt this policy will be placed under total embargo.

This should come as no surprise. Women choose different occupations from men. That results in different salaries.How many women work in dangerous (but high paying) jobs like in the oil fields? How many women are miners or commissioned sales people compared to men?Different choices = different outcomes.
Dee
Please read the article carefully before commenting....it said "women (...) earned just 63 per cent the salary of similarly educated men in 2007". Similarly educated!!! That doesn't mean women are making less because they are are all working as social workers and teachers (which is a stereotype by the way). It means that a woman engineer or a woman doctor is only making 63 percent of what a male doctor or engineer is making. And that is truly a shame.
Peter
Smart Canadians! You just described the definition of supply and demand and the resulting cause and effect.
Marcel
I am not sure who are the researchers and how they find these findings.Late spring we were told women are making more money than men. We were also told Immigrants are doing way better than their counter parts Canadian?Yet, finding telling us immigrants are less paid then Canadian born? Are we as tax payers paying for all these non-sens findings?
june
Men do not make more money because they work in dangerous jobs. A woman with a Master's degree in Library science will make signficantly less than a man with a Master's or Bachelor's degree in Economics. One field is female dominated and the other is male dominated, hence the difference in pay. Pay equity issues are well documented and women do make significantly less than their male counterparts who have similar education and jobs.
Primo Bellisario
The reason women have less jobs is because most of them limit themselves from intensive labour jobs. Dont get me wrong I myself being a male dont like doing intense labour jobs as well, but those percentage of males that don't graduate take on several labour jobs.
Dave
Good point Jay. Warren Farrell's book, "The Myth of Male Power', did a great job of demonstrating not only why the gender disparity exists, but of also showing that when apples are compared to apples, women earn as much if not more than men.
Lily
This article presents the research in a certain way that favors a certain point of view. A classic problem with a research made to prove a theory, not a theory built from a research. What are the types of fields that women with high school diploma work in? Could the fields in which they work in be the least paid ones? A office clerk, a receptionist, a clientele support earns less then a construction worker or a factory worker, that is for certain. There is a huge difference between saying that gender determines the salary then to say women choose fields that are less lucrative. It would be interesting to add these statistics to the article, otherwise, the research is incomplete or the article is trying to push it's point of view by omitting details.
Paul
But what are the degrees majoring in? When I went to school for engineering we could easily tell when we went into the wrong class; it was full of women. An arts degree is useless. You learn to do nothing more than reguritate your profs opinions onto paper. So it is no wonder that they are not making money. When is the last time you saw a job add for an anthropologist?
Jay
@June,Yes, and a man with a PhD. working in a bookstore will earn 50% less than a woman with a Masters working in library sciences. It has nothing to do with whether the person is male or female. It has everything to do with choices. If a woman will do the same job for 30% less, why would anyone ever hire a man?
Catwoman 38
Actually this true.Pay equity is a problem.
Ian
I have worked side by side with women doing the exact same job, and we both got paid the SAME. This is just another myth being propagated by the feminist movement.
Krystal
Is this supposed to be news? Has it not been a long standing fact that women make less than men... even in the SAME work places and positions?! Last time I checked it was $.63 to the male dollar on average. And we think we have acheived equality?! HA!
KJ in Kingston Ontario
it is quite amazing men can earn more -- given how alienating the Canadian education has become for males and how hard it is to graduate high school under the insane curriculum mandates. This remains, in part perhaps because "trades"are less easily outsourced than white collar work. I expect to see the most government functions outsourced in a decade. You can pay your municipal taxes, water bills or CRA account -- if you have any money -- in either Bangalore, Hyderabad or Mumbai
AH
Hey Ian - Thanks for using your limited example of what you get paid compared to the females around you and extrapolating from that that the feminist movement is out to get you. It's a shame that the researchers wasted their time surveying a wide variety of jobs to come up with their findings - they could have just called you.
bikerborz
Why has nobody commented on the obvious? If there is indeed a take-home pay disparity, could it not be attributed to pregnancy and maternity leave? Men don't get these "benefits"...
