We Must Take Our Country Back

We have a real conundrum on our hands with the "so called Tamil migrant  refugees" docking on our shores.  First of all they are no migrants they are que-jumpers with possible ties to the terrorist group, the Tamil Tigers, LTTE. 

First of all, let's drop the "migrant" bunkum. It's meaningless left-wing political claptrap.
Call the 490 Tamil "migrants," now being processed in British Columbia because of our over-accommodating and therefore outdated refugee policies, something more reflective of what they truly are.
Like queue-jumpers, scam artists, back-door home invaders, plus a terrorist or two.

It's clearly obvious they are trying to take advantage of us because we are suckers.  We are really soft on immigration and asylum seekers.
Many Canadians would have preferred that we intercept their ship and send them back from whence they came but according to some we can't because of international law.  OK, but then we have a certain supreme court ruling that has said we must give migrants like these charter rights but according to Ezra Levant, that rule does not hold water. 

A tie vote at the Supreme Court 25 years ago doomed us to accept the ship of 490 Tamils that arrived in Victoria last week.
In a 1985 case called Singh v. Minister of Employment and Immigration, the court ruled that our Charter of Rights applied to foreigners, not just Canadian citizens.
Foreigners overseas could now use the Charter to enforce their “rights” against our country.
The six judges hearing that case were split on the subject, three against three. But a tie is broken by the Chief Justice. So one, unelected man changed Canada’s immigration system, granting foreigners the right to sue their way into our country, from wherever they might be in the world.

Some suggest that the PM  should use the not withstanding clause within the Charter in this case.  Maybe, but something has to be done in any case.  This cannot go on.  I think the PM should recall parliament immediately to get this headache dealt with. Introduce a bill that would prevent this from happening again. Make it a confidence measure and if need be take it to the people and let us decide.  This would be an issue to take into an election. Our country is at stake. We must not allow those who are not citizens to dictate to us.  
I am so sick and tired of being taken advantage of and scammed.  We must be careful who we allow into our house. We cannot be the dumping ground of the world. We must bombard our MPs,Senators the PM, the Minister of Immigration,  the Minister of Public Safety and the opposition leaders to let them know of our displeasure and demand something be done like yesterday.  Something with teeth that would not allow this kind of thing to happen again.

BTW. Forgive me for not posting the last couple days, I injured my right hand. The lid of the BBQ suddenly came slamming down on my hand the other day while I was checking on the fish that my husband had started BBQing.  It was swollen a bit and sore for awhile but it's better now nothing broken, just bruised a bit and a little tender.  I mustn't have lifted the lid the way I guess.

Other Provinces Consider Rolling the Dice

Alberta and Saskatchewan are considering online gaming after BC and Ontario recently started their online gambling sites.  BC had to immediately shut down theirs do to technical problems.

Online gambling would surely be a cash cow for cash strapped provinces but what about people who have gambling problems?  Gambling addiction has ruined careers, families, and lives.  Are our provincial governments so money hungry they are willing for gamblers risk all that is really important in life?   Then you and I have to pay to look after those addicts.

Yeah, yeah it will be controlled yada, yada, yada  but it just  doesn't sit well with  me. How about you?

Majority of Canadians Against Affirmative Action

It seems like the Libs and Dippers are on the wrong side of  public opinion on affirmative action.  A Leger poll that came out today states that a majority of Canadians are against hiring quotas.    When the government announced a few weeks ago they would be reviewing hiring practices in the civil service, the Libs and Dippers were bellyaching.

All this came about when fellow blogger, Sara Landriault  tried to apply online for a job in the Dept. of Immigration and was blocked because she was white. 

It looks like the public is behind Sara.   We wouldn't have been made aware of this if she hadn't brought it to our attention. I would like to thank her for that. Canadians agree that a job candidate should be hired on merit not race or gender.

OTTAWA - A healthy majority of Canadians say a person's race, gender or ethnic background shouldn't give anyone an inside track on a government job, a new poll provided exclusively to QMI Agency concludes.
Leger Marketing finds 59% of those surveyed in an online poll earlier this month say that only the "absolute best candidate" should be hired for any public service job, regardless of race, gender or ethnicity.
Leger also found 20% thought targeted hiring was fine so long as the successful candidate meets all the job requirements.
"That tells me that 75% of Canadians think, that what we should do, is the best person should be put into that position regardless of other issues," said David Scholz, Leger Marketing's vice-president.

  The government's review process though needs to be done as quickly as possible though so action can be  taken to change this travesty.  The coalition of the losers need to get with the program, seems like their out of step again with the public.

End the Public Subsidy for Party Financing

I very rarely agree with Libluvin' Jeffery Simpson but this I agree on, to scrap the public funding of political parties. 

 It would  hurt the Liberals and the Bloc the most, because they are not very good at fundraising. They haven't really had to. The Liberals in the past has relied on large corporate donations and that is not allowed anymore under  the Accountability Act which was implemented after the Conservatives took office in 2006.  The Bloc are just lazy, it's just more money they suck out of ROC.  The Conservatives and NDP have better fundraising skills so it wouldn't them as badly.

The Conservative government tried to put an end of that public funding in 2008 when the opposition got into a hissy fit. Then you had the attempt of the coalition of losers  trying to overthrow a duly elected government that was just weeks old.  I believe the Conservatives used the proposal  to smoke the losers out.

Why should you or I be forced give money to parties whose ideologies and policies I don't agree with?  Because that's what it is, it's forced donations. It's nothing but distribution of wealth. It doesn't make sense.
End the thing, increase the personal limit from $1100 to I would say maybe $3500 a year.  Then if you like a particular party then support it with your wallet not mine.

I say to PM Harper and Minister Jim Flaherty, bring it back.  Include it in the next budget and let the chips fall where they may. If the opposition vote the government down on that, so be it.   I'm sure the Conservatives would love to campaign on that issue.  The opposition I think would have trouble knocking on doors explaining away why the taxpayer should be forced to fund parties they don't agree with.

Omar Khadr, Don't Weep for Him, He's No Little Angel

Ezra Levant says we shouldn't cry for Omar Khadr and stop seeing him as a sweet innocent little lamb who could do no harm  who is being railroaded for something he couldn't possibly have anything to do with. Oh no, poor poor baby, after all he's was just a "child soldier" you know.  He had no clue about what he was getting into so how could he possibly be responsible for killing an evil American soldier?   You know those Americans, they just want to be the world's policeman anyway.

On the other hand could it be that little Omar is not such a little angel that the bleeding heart far left portray him to be?
Child soldier? OK he was 15yrs. old when he allegedly threw that grenade that killed an American medic and  wasn't part of a uniformed organized army. Heck, the same bleeding heart lefties cried when the age of consent was raised from 14 to 16 yrs of age.  So in other words they think it's OK for a kid of 14 to get a learners permit and have sex but at the same time at  age 15, you can be classified as a "child soldier."  Go figure! Some 15yr. old's can even be tried as adults for some serious crimes, especially in the US.   Most kids today, at 15, in this information age are mature and worldly enough to know what they are doing most of the time.

So yeah, I agree with Ezra.  Don't cry for Omar Khadr!  He is no angel!
