Personally, I'm thinking of rousing the rabble against anyone who insists on having a colour in their last name. Here was all are trying to be beige and here you are insisting on being 'Whiteley'. You have 10 days to change your name to "Beigeley". You will be assimilated.

Kidding aside, I'm not sure I'm all that happy about everyone going beige. I realise that in the long run, it's probably inevitable, but I'm going to miss the diversity, frankly. I mean, who wants to go to an authentic Bavarian restaurant for a burger? And I want the kick of the unexpected when I'm in a Chinese restaurant in Quebec and a very Chinese looking guy comes over to my table and asks if I need a menu, in French.

When I go to the Kensington Market here in Toronto, I don't want everything to be the same. I like that every second stall and store is a different nationality, and a different smell, and a different style.
