Multiculturalism Is a Failure

German Chancellor Angela Merkel has declared multiculturalism a failure in Germany. She has reemphasized the importance of immigrants learning German. There is also, in her speech, a sense that Germany should seek immigrants who bring special skills to Germany.

You can see a Reuters article reporting her comments here. It is refreshing when national leaders tell the truth about sensitive issues like this. I wonder when the Canadians will figure out that multiculturalism doesn't work; they've been so proud of it in Canada.
