So, is the govt's response fair? Or is the govt. of Canada being "vindictive"? Should taxpayers fork out large wads of cash to groups who don't wish to become a true part of what it is to be Canadian?
I would also agree with the actions of your government on this, it is very similar to the stance of the UK against groups that set out to promote religious hatred. I would feel the same if it were a Jewish group promoting anti Islam views, because that would also run counter to the traditions of your country in promoting the liberal values of tolerance and mutual respect.
