    I'm from Malaysia, so I was intrigued by the Malaysian flag in the thumbnail. Then the video starts with a shot of Montreal, where I now live. :)

    A beautiful multicultural country...with politicians trying to break us apart 😔

      @Li F if you know anything about m'sia, then you'd know they are the most passive aggressive people.... especially the Malays. Aku orang melayu, but even I know some people who peddle ketuanan bs but then buckle the minute you ask them to act on it. It's all rhetoric and for show. I believe the young generation are fed up dengan orang tua punya kerja... I don't live there, but I still want to see M'sia be for all MALAYSIANS.

    3:54 - "Someone can be both Malay [ethnicity] -- a dominant group -- and Christian, a non-dominant cultural group..."
    Although this example may work elsewhere, this is a poor example in context of Malaysia, as this will almost NEVER happen /or will never be allowed to happen (politically); as the definition of being Malay [ethnicity] is explicitly defined in the highest law of the land, The Malaysian constitution 160(2) which states: "Malay" means a person who professes the religion of Islam, habitually speaks the Malay language, conforms to Malay custom..."

    3:54 "Someone can be both Malay, a dominant group, and Christian, a non-dominant group."
    Oof in theory it should work like that, but in reality religion was never a personal matter in Malaysia.

    Well articulated and explained video.
    Was surprised to see my country highlighted in the thumbnail.
    Coming from Malaysia myself, it’s upsetting and disgusting that some politicians in Malaysia hide behind religion to divide and conquer.
    Often, they equate race to be the same as religion. They even claim the Malay word of Allah to be exclusively used for Muslims only. Holy scriptures and Malay Christian bibles were banned because politicians took claim to language. It’s utterly disgusting.
    Xenophobia is a cancer in society that needs to be removed.
    Thanks for highlighting this.
    Much ❤️

    As a Malaysian I feel proud. Culturally we are diverse, though I do wish we can see past our differences and act together as one country.

    3:55 - Can a Malay individual have Christianity as his/her religion? Because from what I know, it is almost impossible for a Malay individual to be a Christian due to the strict Syariah law.
    Please educate me on this :)

    at minutes 3.54, Alize said "Someone can be both Malay--a dominant group -- and Christian". as far as i remember Malays cannot be Christians. Lina Joy went to court because she wanted to be identified as a Malay Christian but she lost her case...😊

    I found this very helpful. It concisely explains the idea of culture in a scholastic way yet still shows consideration for the people it uses as examples. Nice.👍

    This is refreshing to see attention brought to this.
    Maybe if more people know about this globally the Canadian government will try to help the First Nations communities rather than have symbolic holidays and false promises.

    6:55 People adopt a culture that they look up to. People make fun of a culture that they look down on. Cultural appropriation is not a negative thing. Cultural degradation is.

    We lived several years in the southern tier of New York (not far from Ithaca). We constantly drove to Toronto, Montreal, Quebec, and Manhattan to get away from the cultural desert that is most of the USA. We ate real food and sat in cafes and subways and sucked in the different skin colors and languages. It did not matter that we did not understand many of the languages and did not look like many of the people. We just needed to see some diversity. Then we went back to a pearly white place where Taco Bell is considered ethnic. We left for good 8 years ago.

    Grew up in Ithaca huh? Given its 10 square miles surrounded by realilty I'm not too surprised you had major culture shock.
    FWIW my ex- father-in-law lived in the residential "schools" near Hagersville, Ontario. He called it "The Hole." He was a tough guy but every time he talked about it, he would start to shake.
