I wonder if the 'Canadian-values questionnaire will ask about one's beliefs pertaining to a woman's right to have an abortion?

why would it?

Given how crazy Leitch's proposal of a 'Canadian-values' test is from the get go, why wouldn't it? I can only immagine what kind of questions the questionnaire could ask and what the answer would be supposed to be.

Yes, it appears you are very good at imagining all kinds of bullshyte that is not likely to happen or that you have no real knowledge in or of.

So you tell me, what would a 'Canadian-values' test look like?

All I can think of is obey the law or pay the consequences? beyond that, we're talking brainwashing.

Old habits are hard to shake.....

Conservative leadership candidate Kellie Leitch wants to know what her supporters think about vetting would-be immigrants and refugees for "anti-Canadian values."

Leitch does not spell out what is meant by "anti-Canadian values," nor otherwise declare where Leitch herself stands on the issue.

Neither did her campaign manager Nick Kouvalis, who said Thursday he would not comment.

Should we screen immigrants for 'anti-Canadian values?' Kellie Leitch's campaign wants to know - Politics - CBC News


I've heard that term several times, "old stock Canadian". Now, what the fuk does that mean?

I have no idea, and since I don't, I'm not about to start spouting bullshyte, supposition, or innuendo. I'll leave that to the single brain cell individuals.

I don't know. The B&B Commission report defines 'two founding races' as 'Canadians of British and French origin.' I've always taken old-stock Canadian to just be a more recent term to replace 'two founding races,' the term used in the 1960's. But I could be wrong.

You don't know, but you have no problem answering the question.


Here's the answer from the guy that originally said it.


Stephen Harper explains 'old-stock Canadians' comment - Politics - CBC News

Conservative Leader Stephen Harper has elaborated on what he meant when he alluded to "old-stock Canadians" during last night's leaders' debate, saying it refers to "Canadians who have been the descendants of immigrants for one or more generations."

So in other words, if you're not an immigrant, you're an old-stock Canadian.



Still having comprehension problems? He is quite clear in his explanation. It's definitely NOT the bullshyte answer you came up with.

He said anyone who is a Canadian for one generation or more. To be so for at leat one generation, the parents would have to be immigrants and him born in Canada. Ergo, a non-immigrant.
