It's all in how you say it, Joe.

You say asylum claimants should follow legal processes, that's fine.  You say they're the first wave of a movement to undermine our culture, that's kind of suspect.  I think most of us are well opposed to the radical tenets of Islam, but if you say that all Moslems follow those, well, that's kind of suspect again.

Believing in free speech that doesn't have the reasonable limits of avoiding hate speech, that's not knowing our laws.  Opposed to M-103 (or, again, seeing it as the thin edge of undermining our culture), that's kind of not knowing what a Parliamentary motion can do (hint: not much).

Thinking Catherine McKenna isn't good at her job; sure.  Calling her Climate Change Barbie -- yes, that's offensively misogynistic.

And you know, by definition, if you have inherent biases and prejudices based on race, that's racism.  Doesn't matter if "but all my friends are x" (or even, "my former girlfriend was x") -- still racism.
