Q: How to avoid suspicious looks when you are in the Western side of the world

MeNoTalkBeing an Arab with Arabian looks, after September 11 things have changed dramatically when Arabs or people with similar looks (Indians, Pakistanis, Turkish, Kurdish, Iranians...etc) go to the west side of the world (Europe and North America). Some people just keep giving you 'that look' and I am...

"What's in your opinion the best way to avoid this?"
Sounds opinion based @MeNoTalk ;)

@MeNoTalk wait, he accepts bribes? NOW we find out!
I thought it was funny, if such a question was asked today with the word 'opinion' it'd get closed on the spot
@MeNoTalk there's a couple of tube/train lines and buses in Toronto
I spent 4(?) days there, even got out to Niagara falls on a bus tour, just walked or used public transport everywhere
re the question, I'd edit it, I think it's a great question as shown by the traffic it's garnered, but at some point some newbie who gets their one closed is going to point at it and go 'but, but but!'

@MeNoTalk I was in Toronto two weeks ago
where exactly do you want to go?
everything in downtown is within walking distance actually
only used metro to go to the airport actually
they have some metro lines (4 of them), but in reality there are really only 2
one east west, and one north-south-north, with U-turn in the downtown area
I don't know about busses
