Anglophones are equally dangerous in fact, and even more common around here. The Toronto police have been hitting drivers with whopping fines for using either Anglophones or Francophones while navigating the 401 (highway). :-)

It is true that the best thing about being in Ontario is not being in Toronto. Kind of like New York City and the rest of New York State.

For great restaurants and good hobby shops, however, you can't beat Toronto...

Mousethief - discrimination is only wrong when people you don't agree with do it!...(extreme sarcasm). (and I am using the word "you" in the generic sense in that sentence, rather than specifically referring to Mousethief).

For instance, from late 1941 to 1945 virtually all Americans hated the Japanese (and we all know why). During those years that was not called discrimination, it was called patriotism. The discrimination that it fostered on the home front against Japanese-American civilians was not considered wrong at all...at the time.

Of course, people were scared. The usual story.
