In the news was a near riot to tear down a statue of Canada's first Prime Minister Sir John A. Macdonald in Kingston, Ontario, his adopted home town. There is a statue of Sir John A. in Hamilton, and it too has been threatened with destruction. The Spectator editorialized that Canada accempt more immigrants soon as a means of stimulating the economy. And, of course, there was the racist rant by Kojo Damptey.
The arrogance, ignorance, and hypocrisy of the radical-progressive left is truly amazing. We’re seeing demonstrations that threaten to tear down statues of Sir John A. Macdonald because he was a racist colonizer. Practically every one of the demonstrators is white. So, why don’t these demonstrators demonstrate their personal commitment to the cause of decolonialization and emigrate to Europe?
If Canada is the product of colonization and we inhabit lands that belonged to aboriginal people, as the Spectator endorses, why did we see an editorial that called for increased immigration as a means of stimulating the economy? Doesn’t more immigration exacerbate the colonialization problem? And since the prevalence of racism increases as more racial mixing occurs, doesn’t increased immigration from poor countries exacerbate the racism problem in Canada?
If black people also reject the colonial product that Canada is, why don’t they return to their country of origin, or else move to Africa?
If recent immigrants from Muslim countries deplore Canada’s racism and Islamophobia, why did they come here? Why didn’t they return to the Islamic paradise?
The answer is that none of these people are subject to the ramifications of their own ideology. Other people are. The “issue” is never the issue, the issue is power. The object of exerting their power is to humiliate the Canadian middle class. When Justin Trudeau says that Canada is systemically racist, he is expressing his contempt for middle and working class Canadians.
It’s about power and humiliation.
