It is time for Canadians to demand that immigration rules be tightened

We, as Canadians, come from great stock. 

We were and are the farmers and the soldiers. The labourers and the professionals. We are the teachers and the journalists and the enforcers of law.

We care about those less fortunate than ourselves, but we care about our history and liberty even more. These ideas are the very foundation of our great country. They should be never be sacrificed in the name of “social tolerance," to the detriment of our Constitution.

We risk doing just that when we allow individuals into our country who have no desire to respect our customs or our laws.

Yes, practise your cultural traditions with your family if you feel they are worth preserving, and pray in the establishment of your choice.

However, if your customs are in violation of basic human rights, than abandon them. Those types of ideas have no place in Canada.

A great country has given you health care and some form of pension, and an education. Do not abuse it. Pay it back when the opportunity arises, through charitable works or kindness to others in need.

We need only look back to the early 1900s to see the kinds of people the Liberals once welcomed into our country. Even though these Liberals were more progressive than the Conservatives, they still believed in the basic fundamental ideas that made this country great.

Let us look at what Clifford Sifton, Minister of the Interior at the time, said regarding new immigrants:

“When I speak of quality I have in mind, I think, something that is quite different from what is in the mind of the average writer or speaker upon the question of Immigration. I think a stalwart peasant in a sheep-skin coat, born on the soil, whose forefathers have been farmers for ten generations, with a stout wife and a half-dozen children, is good quality. A Trades Union artisan who will not work more than eight hours a day and will not work that long if he can help it, will not work on a farm at all and has to be fed by the public when his work is slack is, in my judgement, quantity and very bad quantity. I am indifferent as to whether or not he is British-born. It matters not what his nationality is;such men are not wanted in Canada, and the more of them we get the more trouble we shall have.”

Now in all fairness, Clifford Sifton’s policy was not perfect and it gradually evolved into something more inclusive. He was rightfully criticized for not including Asians, blacks and people of the Jewish faith.

Despite these flaws, the people who came to Canada under Sifton's guidelines, and their offspring, nevertheless became some of the finest Canadians to live in this country. They served in two major world wars to preserve freedom for all of us. They paid for and built our infrastructure and our places of worship. They set the moral standard for us as Canadians.

When I look about me and I see our country governed by politically correct socialists who somehow justify despotism and politically correct speech, just so the new immigrant feels they have special status, it makes me feel sick and ashamed. 

Clearly, these leaders are spoiled and complacent in their appointed security, so much so they feel they can do anything they like and tax us so they can have great pensions -- and bring in cheap labor and votes.

It is time we as Canadians stand up and call our politicians to task and demand that the rules regarding immigration be tightened. 

It is time we demand that our government think of the national security of this country. 

It is time we demand they start to honour their fathers -- the ones who that gave them such a good life -- and stop cheating the people who have been born here, worked here, paid taxes here, and in many cases fought to preserve the very freedom our politicians are taking from us.
