This is particularly interesting to me here - the issue of trust. I wonder if people even trust anyone here. I was at an info session of CES at YWCA one day and I was completely shocked by the statement one of the trainers made. She said, and I am quoting her here: 'Most of you come from the countries where no one trusts each other. Here, in Canada you will learn how to trust. Canadian trust you easily'. I almost choked with laughter. Never heard such nonsense before. Here? Trust? Hmmm...
All those background checks, police checks, child abuse checks, child welfare checks, alcohol test, drug test that one has to go through before one starts work here is incredible. I am not even mentioning the reference checks they do when they ask for references and actually contact them.
If this happens in C-A-N-A-D-A where people TRUST, I don't want to imagine what we would have to go through if there was no trust in the country.
No one actually ever asked me for references before; most of those checks that exist here do not exist in most countries.
Yet, with all these checks and rechecks and trust you come across pedophiles and sickos who rape kids and are abusers. Not that pedophiles do not exist back home but the thing is back home and in many countries they face a much severe punishment than in Canada and US. I heard that back home pedophiles are locked for a long term and pedophilia and rape are the most severely punished crimes in prisons. Since the punishment is harsh people are afraid of committing these crimes. Whereas here commit a crime, get a good lawyer and you get a light sentence or conditional sentence or just walk away a free man. Here is the justice system for you.
