Why can't a Muslim also be Canadian?

Who's going to pay that increased pay? It takes more than a few months to get an education. What makes "home-grown" Canadians too good to work their way up from the bottom?

We live in a market economy where companies can choose to hire the best candidates for the jobs. Too many home-grown Canadians lack the drive and motivation to get into the difficult fields of engineering and such. Study after study has shown with similar qualifications a "white" name will get you an interview before an ethnic one. If our graduates had the right qualifications (and not music or art history degrees), they'd have first crack at these jobs in the first place. 

The xenophobia and anti-immigrant sentiments are scary. Most of us here descended from immigrants who came here for a better life. 

If we are going to be competitive globally, our companies need the best people and not some white Canadian content quota (and I'm a white Canadian born male).
