Here is the problem with Canadian politics.
Both major Canadian political parties possess positives and negatives, but I feel the negatives outdo the positives.
The Liberals rot this country from the inside by its pedantic sellout to the cult of multiculturalism---the effect.....Canada becomes too politically correct and any search for an all-encompassing, bicultural Canadian identity becomes tossed into the wind. You'd think history would be on the side for the legitimate cultural and national quest, but this is replaced by politcal sentiment, all of it appealing to the base sentiments of electioneering. At the worst, you become condemed for mearly speaking your mind in public and get labelled a racist. This is ridiculous. :angryfire:
The Conservatives sell this country out to the American's. They are a party concerned primarily with economics, and as such, possess a utilitarian view of how trade and economic barriers between Canada and the US should be erased. What they call ''harmony'' is actually a policy of self-imposed assimilation into the American empire....
When the economic levers go, so does the cultural will to remain distinct. They are ''Tories'' only in a joking sense. Toryism in Canada is certainly not welcome in the New Conservative Party.:angryfire:
Many Canadians take pride in not bothering to identify Canadian culture and identity. I simply cannot believe these people. They think that a void of nothing actually fills an empty space with concrete.
How ridiculous!
I bet they dont want to embark on a quest of national fulfullment and identity because they feel that by doing so, we become like American's: assimilationist
There is nothing negative with propping up and supporting the country that gave you birth and gives you hope and prosperity! That's not assimilationist, that's actually taking constructive steps to make sure the thing you love continues to survive. And for who? Your children and grandchildren!
Its time we start taking concrete steps to define and unite Canada's biculural and historical identity.
Come on Canada, lets get some balls!
You too ladies..
