"In Germany, the Nazis first came for the communists, and I did not speak up, because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak up, because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak up, because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I did not speak up, because I was not a Catholic. Then they came for me... and by that time, there was no one to speak up for anyone."

Od course I agree with your quote. However, if the hope was to paint Canadians as a pacifistic, it won't wash. We did speak up when the Nazis began invading in 1939 and we stayed til the end of the war in 1945. Blacks fled here during the period of slavery in the US. We took in as many boat people as we could.

We may not be an homonginzed society but our salad mix is pretty darn good. Would you mind explaining why you think of Canada as a third world nation?? It seems to me, we came through the last melt down pretty darn good.

How Intelligent Are Canadians?


How intelligent are Canadians?
Don’t be offended, it’s just a simple question.
This question is not being asked to the vast number of immigrants which our government has
permitted to enter Canada over the past few decades, it’s being directed to those of you who are
descendants of Canada’s European founding settlers, the people who built this country. When the
Lester Pearson government stopped all moderate immigration from Europe back in the sixties, and
turn to excessive immigration from the third world, “did you or your parents say or do anything”?
When the Trudeau and Mulroney governments continued with this mission to turn Canada into a third
world country, “did you or your parents voice any concerns”?
How many phone calls or letters did you and your family send to government to express your
concerns? The fact is that well over 95% of all European founding settlers and their families did
absolutely nothing to inform government that they didn’t want Canada to be flooded with third world
immigrants. How much intelligence did Canadians show by being so negligent?
Maybe some of us were too young back in the 1960s to realize what government was doing to destroy
Canada “but what about today”? We sit back and watch Harper spend billions of dollars on jet
fighters, and billions more each year to feed, house, and educate immigrants. Harper is raising the
immigrant intake to “one million people per year” for the next ten years, even though our national
unemployment rate is over 8%. Harper can find money for jet fighters and immigrants, and then he
announces that his government cannot afford to provide old age pensions to the people who built the
country, and is forcing them to work until the age of sixty-seven. The question is;
“Are we not intelligent enough to fight back against this corruption and mismanagement of Canada”?
Are we going to sit back like our parents did and allow our quality of life to continue to deteriorate?
If immigrants get pissed off they get off their asses and block a highway, like the Tamil’s did in
Toronto. When Anglo Saxon white people of European decent get pissed off they complain to their
co-workers and family, and then wander back to the fridge for another beer.
The fact that governments across Canada have recently announced their intensions to turn our
country into a police state, is absolute proof that they see us as wimps who will tolerate anything they
impose on us, whether it’s tax increases, controlling our basic right to free speech and expression, and
even what we say while using the Internet. Consider this; If your children end up living their lives
under police state regulations, jobless, and have their lives dictated by a fully Muslim government,
“it will be because people like you and I stood by and did nothing to squash the introduction of a
police state society, or try to stop the excessive immigration”. You can now show a little intelligence
and file a formal complaint to government about your concerns, or you can be a typical Canadian and
“get another beer”, “sit on the couch”, and moan to family all day long about our corrupt and
negligent government, and how excessive immigration has negatively affected your life.
Remember; You owe it to your children and grandchildren to at least make an effort to keep Canada
from turning into a police state, and being turned into a third world country.

In the early 1900's the same words were voiced by the English who were disturbed by the Polish and Ukrainians immigrants showing up by the boatload.

Where would Canada be today without the expertise they brought with them?

Those that hate like China does have been around since time began. Yes it happened in Canada. How many of those freaks do you see in the Country today.

The worst of immigrants are the ones who come to loot the streets paved in gold then leave when they realize they can't - but use that newly-won citizenship as a shield from behind which they can create trouble abroad and/or mean-mouth the shield

But a smaller percentage than 100 years ago.
To be honest, I wouldn't say so. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Streets paved in gold?

My street has lost it's grade and the catch basins don't work but the city still charges for storm water drainage.

Would it be Anti-Canadian to charge them for storage for the water that sits in puddles in front of my house?

If you can drive through it, it's a navigable waterway - thus Federal. Does the town have proper permits for the dam?

It all depends on how deep the ruts are during spring thaw. I'd have to check with SaskWater the Crown Corp who deals with such things now that they are fully in charge these days.

What about the fish that live in there. You may have to bridge over it

Fish? The green fish that are painted on the sidewalk next to the catch basin that doesn't work? I've dropped a line down through the grating I don't know how many times but I've never caught any green fish, just aspen leaves. Any recommendations for bait or lures? Maybe jigging isn't the right technique?
