PTBC J-Log

A conservative OPINION blog --with bite. OPINION by Joel Johannesen.

One in six Canadians a visible minority…

Written by Joel Johannesen on Wednesday April 02 2008 at 06:53 AM

... and 9.9 in 10 “Canadians” (or hyphenated pseudo-Canadians, or refugees, or Guantanamo prisoners hoping to immigrate to Canada to join his family post-Afghanistan training, or folks living in Lebanon who are “Canadians”...) now more than ever before wonder what in tarnation “Canadian” means, aside from nothing—or anything—whatsoever.  This, despite the liberals’ CBC and the state bureaucrats creating and mandating that “Canadian Culture” for us with all those countless hundreds of billions of our taxpayer dollars, and all those Iranian-style “Canadian content” laws and such… 

One in six Canadians a visible minority

The face of Canada is rapidly changing as Canada’s visible minority population continues to soar, increasing at five times the growth in the population as a whole. ...  “If current immigration trends continue, Canada’s visible minority population will continue to grow much more quickly than the non-visible minority population” ...

 

This should help.



UPDATE (9:24 AM PDT):

I liked this knee-jerk attempt by the Liberal Frenchman Stephane Dion to cast Prime Minister Harper as some sort of racist or anti-immigrant blighter:

Dion uses Reform document to criticize Harper

CTV.ca News Staff

Using a 20-year-old Reform Party document authored by Stephen Harper, the Liberals tried to paint the prime minister as anti-immigrant Tuesday.

Liberal Leader Stephane Dion quoted the document in the House of Commons, which said immigration should not “radically or suddenly alter the ethnic makeup of Canada.”

“(This) may look like an attempt to deliver promises made by the Reform party 20 years ago,’’ Dion said, saying the old report was the inspiration for the Conservative’s [SIC] new immigration bill.

[...]

“Immigration should not be based on race or creed, as it has in the past; nor should it be explicitly designed to radically or suddenly alter the ethnic makeup of Canada, as it increasingly seems to be,” the report reads.

If you actually read the highlights of the report, the Reform policies I read make perfect sense to me and most Canadians, I think.  But as in this case of Dion and other knee-jerks and their intellectually dishonest effort to tarnish Harper, I have also instantly seemingly been charged with being a white supremacist or racist in the blog comments by someone calling himself “salvage”, pretty much for posting this blog entry with the news about the latest stats. 

Apparently, once again, if I and all of us don’t march in goose step to their liberal-left ideological drummer, then I’m a racist or a white supremacist and all those who wish to comment on it or discuss it are too.  Vote liberal.

(Naturally this reminds me of how it is and what I’m called when I don’t actively endorse and support and in fact encourage the homosexual lifestyle in every way;  and the Darwinian theory of evolution;  and the theory of “man-made global warming”;  and gay ‘marriage’; and “‘reproductive’ choice”; and more). 



UPDATE 2—10:19 AM PDT:

Interesting stat cited at the state owned CBC.ca web site in their story:

In total, 32 per cent of Canadians called themselves Canadian, a decrease from the last census, when 39 per cent listed themselves as Canadian.

It’s working, liberals!
