Re: RE: Who Cares, we hate Canada
There is nothing I abhor in this world more than a Libertarian except perhaps socialists/communists and social liberals.

That said, I have a real problem with the multicultural ideal.......NO!
These people do NOT want to come here so they can live in exactly the same way they did in the old country. If they did, why would they come?
Immigrants MUST assimilate. The MUST learn English or French. They MUST fully accept the secular nature of our society. They MUST respect the rule of law, and our system of government. And, above all, they MUST leave their factionalism, their wars, their hatreds behind them.
If not, out you go.
And I don't give a damn if we send you back to a nation that has a firing squad waiting on the airport tarmac just for you.
Nor do I give a damn if you have jumped through the hoops to become a Canadian citizen on paper.
I kind of agree with Colphy on this one however I think "assimilate" is a hard word to use. I think many of his points make sence, like learning french or english and accepting most of the laws of our seculer society. However I do believe we should respect there traditions as long as it doesn't interfear with our own.
With people who are anti-immigration, or accepting refugees, just think about it, if Canada every persecuted you on your beliefs and you were looking at death for just believng in something Canada didn't agree with. Would you not be hopeful in a country take you in.
Anyhow do I think Canada is too "politically correct". In some sences we have become too extreme with doing the right thing. to the point of doing the wrong thing. We fought for a seculer nation and we find that the same forces which have given us this great nation are allowing none-seculer beliefs to out wt our seculer beliefs, just as long as they come from another nation or tradition.
I believe like any Libertarian that as long as your belief does not harm others, go pray to the goat god or whatever. But there's a point when it does and endangourse others. This is when our seculer nation is supposed to step in and say NO, and that you must follow OUR norms. Such as not bringing Swords or knifes, daggers or what not to school. This is a seculer belief not a christian one which we as Canadians have accepted as a norm.
