If it wasn't for our rotten "middle eastern" governments, we wouldn't have gone to Canada or any other western nation. I am proud to be Lebanese...But I am also proud and privileged to hold the Canadian passport, and to have lived there for 7 years.

Those you refer to, only say they are Canadian because people in the gulf area simply view them as slave workers...But when they have that western document, they get a little bit of the respect they truly deserve.

So you see, these people deserve your respect, regardless of their passport. And if everyone treated them with respect, they wouldn't resort to having to say "I am Canadian."
