Canada’s Somali Problem: my new piece at Taki’s Magazine

August 8, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

Excerpt:

Let’s consider ourselves fortunate that Canada’s Somali settlers—the word “immigrant” is so 20th century—seem more or less content with killing each other. (…)

Are Somalis who came to Canada so dramatically different from those who’ve settled in the US, and whose belligerence has turned Nebraska, Minnesota, and Colorado into unlikely cauldrons of racial unrest and resentment?

Edmonton’s Somalis, if the Journal is to be believed, don’t sound like a people who didn’t have a standard alphabet until 1972 or had “never seen a two-story building” before moving to North America.

Regardless, they still cost us money…
