If you want diversity, come to Toronto. It's the most diverse city in the world.

And none of that "more immigrants in vancouver" crap. Vancouver's immigrants are from the same two countries. Immigrants to Toronto are from every country in the world; the proportion of our immigrants from the non-popular immigrant origin countries is what makes us so diverse.


Other than Israel, Australia has more overseas-born citizens than any other nation, and almost half of all our people have at least one parent born overseas.

ANYWAY, I hope Pauline does get in, for four reasons:

1. It'll remind the electorate that she's useless at actually doing anything, and that her views and policies are nuts.

2. It keeps her off crappy reality TV shows for 8 years.

3. It is fitting that Australia's only-ever (more or less) political prisoner ends up in parliament, even if I find her views disgusting.

4. It keeps her out of federal politics.

Yes, she's a national disgrace, but she does represent a nationally disgraceful segment of the electorate. Sure, the coalition covers most of the same ground, but they're not as overtly racist about it.
