Warren Kinsella, a self-admitted long-time Liberal shill, seems to
have finally had his fill of multi-culturalism in this article
written in response to a demonstration in Toronto today that was
interrupted to announce that Iranian bombs and missiles were landing
on Israel. The crowd responded with *CHEERS*. (Video included in the
article.)https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/kinsella-is-this-at-long-last-the-result-of-multiculturalism
He's exactly right about the history: multiculturalism was pitched
for many years as a good thing and any opponents were demonized as
racists. Look where that's gotten us!
The American melting pot concept wasn't a government program.
Many
immigrants were both trying not to stand out and they were highly
motivated to integrate into society because they were forced out of
their shithole countries in Europe. They were fleeing persecution and
war after war after war. If you were on losing side, society had
essentially collapsed. On the winning side, you were going to be
forced to fight a war you didn't support in a country you didn't want
to go to.
But there are plenty of prominent examples in America contrary to the
"melting pot" concept. Certain Protestants throughout the 19th century
and much of the 20th century accused Catholics -- especially Irish
ethnics and immigrants -- of being Papists and therefore disloyal.
This was absurd given that the Irish had always been here in large
numbers since the colonial period. To counter that, municipal
government patronage was organized "tribally" before civil service
laws. The new administration fired everybody hired by the previous
administration to put in his own clan.
That and certain very publicItaly itself wasn't unified into its modern form until the 1860s; prior
celebrations in America, like parades for Saint Patrick's Day, are
about drinking (as if the Irish needed another excuse) and honoring
the clan. It's not exactly celebrating a tradition in the old world
as they don't have four major parades like Chicago. Columbus Day, as
a federal government and state government public holiday (but not in
the private sector) is to honor Italian ethnics. I don't believe
Columbus leaving for the New World is celebrated in Spain (there's no
reason to celebrate it in Italy which didn't have colonies in the
Americas).

Not everything melted. But what everybody found in America, at leastI think this was largely true in Canada too, but with some exceptions.
after the first generation which may have organized gangs for, er,
community protection, was that everybody got along because they never
gave a shit about European national rivalries to begin with (except
for soccer). Norwegians and Swedes get along. Pakistani and Indians
get along. We managed to find new rivalries but artificial attempts to
preserve old world culture couldn't possibly counteract that.
Yes.He's even right about the solution: it's time to find a way to shed
ourselves of the people who don't want to live here in peace with us.
He offers no specific program but I think some kind of policy that
involves deporting non-citizens who run afoul of major laws would be
a good start.
Of course I agree.
A further enhancement would be to establish a list of
offenses that, if committed, would justify stripping the person of
any naturalized Canadian citizenship they may have acquired and then
deporting them too.
Conviction of a felony, lying on immigration papers about having
committed felonies in the old country (for crimes that would have been
crimes in the new world, not just laws oppressing citizens), the usual
reasons.
There would obviously need to be very serious
discussions to figure out the details and establish safeguards to
prevent misuse but I think the handwriting is on the wall and we need
to start to move on this.
Aren't these laws already on the books?
