When will we ever see an Heritage Day for white British/Europeans.

equally strange is people who self flagellate for being white

white guilt is just as strange as white supremacy

and they are interelated

in that, if deep down they didn't think that they were supreme, then what are they feeling guilty about ?

It is bizaare to feel guilty over the actions of those in the past. My direct ancestors as far as I can tell never had slaves. They were peasants who mostly lived in upstate NY and then later on Missouri. 

What is illogical as well is that when you ask someone if slavery was immoral... their reply is that africans sold fellow africans into slavery. That was not the point. We are talking about the actions of white American land owners who bought slaves and had slaves.

WTF. Victoria Day is celebrating a past queens birthday. That day does not promote a white heritage or history day week or month, lefty. 

That's exactly what it does. A white Empress of the largest empire the world has seen and who was our Queen when we became an independent country. What is  that if it isn't white heritage and history.

it was the white American Abolitionists who went to war against slavery

the story of America is free all the slaves everywhere,  or die trying

Being proud of being white is just so hollow. You have no control over this and so being proud of something that you have no control over is just strange. Being proud of your decisions and accomplishments.. legit. However, you have control over those. 

Your liberal brain has become hollow. Being proud of ones own skin color does not make them racist. Why should white people not feel and be proud of all of the accomplishments, achievements, creations and artistry and so much more and not be happy about it? The white people have done so much to make humanity great. 

If white people are so bad, and oh so racist, than why do so many non-white races of people want to immigrate to a white country by the millions every year? I do not see millions of white people immigrating to non-white countries every year. Obviously, white people have something to offer these non-white people that other non-white countries do not. White countries offer peace and stability where many non-white countries do not. 

White lives matter. ?

Victoria Hanover would deny that British heritage is "white"

she would say all her subjects were British

to include all the Indians, Africans & Chinese

the Empress was not a white supremacist

Victoria & Albert were liberal reformers and slavery Abolitionists

Stupidest claim ever advanced. Celebrating the birthday of the icon of British colonialism is not "white" enough for you?

Stupidest reply ever advanced. Look stunned, celebrating Victoria Day is not celebrating a white British/European heritage or history week or month. Gawd, you cannot be that stunned? Do you really have a problem with reading or understanding English? Celebrating Victoria Day has nothing to do with being white. Are you getting it now, lefty? ?

Why are you so insecure that you need a White Day as well as all our other European origination holidays?

There are  no white germans? or french? no while ausrians? What colour are the russians again?

Like - could we have a nelson mandella day and ignore all blacks who aren't from that part of the world?

Would you say that to a black person?  "Why are you so insecure that you need a 'black day' or 'black history month' as well as emancipation day?

For someone like you I will repeat it again. When will we ever see the day when we can finally be able to celebrate and have a white British/European week or month day In Canada? Those white British/European people should be recognized as people who have also contributed much to this country called Canada. We always have to recognize all of the contributions of other non-white people who have contributed to the buildup of Canada.

When will it be old whitey's turn?  Got it now? ?

How does wanting to celebrate and have a white British/European Day declared is somehow showing signs of insecurity? We have black history month. We have Sikh history month. We have Asian heritage month. We have Native history month. Even gays get a month for themselves. So, why not have and celebrate a white British/European week or month? 

We do not celebrate any week or month like others are able to do and have in Canada today. As far as I am concerned, this is an act of racism towards an identifiable group in Canada. White British/European people are now getting the shaft in Canada today. ?

Because that's racist.

Perhaps if you were of a group that endured hundreds of years being shamed, you'd demand to 'celebrate' (which to them simply means not be ashamed) too.

You are mixed up.  Protestants were deemed heretics for centuries by Romanism.  They were put through the Holy Roman Inquisition, tortured, imprisoned, or burned at the stake.   

Why do you think exposing false religion is "hate"?  You obviously want to silence anyone who questions your false religion.  How about providing some evidence Romanism is true Christianity?  You can't because it has no legitimate basis.  The Bible completely debunks it.  Truth is not hate.

  Try opening your mind to other views for a change.  You might learn something.

Answer me one question... I am white. what control did I have over this? Can you answer this in short, succinct fashion?

A man visited his doctor and the doctor said "I have bad news - you have a brain tumor".

But don't worry, continued the doc, we do have 2 brains in hand right now that we can transplant. One's a conservative brain and the other is a liberal one.

How much does that cost? Asked the man.

It's 2000 dollars for the conservative brain, and 25,000 for the liberal one.

Geez doc, why so much for the liberal one?

Well it's completely unused.

You can question the need for some of the other days but to maintain we need a day to celebrate whiteness is ludicrous.

Maybe a day where white people don't have to feel guilty about being white...or a white history month...or a week like shark week....

Ok  - why? why shouldn't white people celebrate their heritage the same way blacks and first nations and others do?

Just now, Aristides said:

We do at Christmas, Easter, Victoria Day, Halloween and Canada Day etc.

No we don't. Christmas is about jesus - and i'm sure you're aware there's a lot of non white christians

Easter - well same issue really,

Halloween is a celebration of candy, not whiteness.

Canada day is a celebration about canada - which I'm told some canadians aren't even white if you could believe it :)

so no white celebration at all.

Or at least a european heritage day or week or month. Europeans have done some utterly amazing things and we can be proud of our heritage.

Most modern medicines, most of our modern tech, the contributions to physics and science, the act of building ships big enough to travel the worlds oceans in relative safety in the 1500's, even the wars and struggles were amazing.  The great kings and queens of europe, the struggle towards a more civilized society,the impact the romans had even today, etc etc.

They are holidays of our white colonial heritage. Canada was 99% white on July 1 1867 and we became a dominion under a white Monarch and Westminster Parliament. All those holidays are a product of our white European history.

No they are not. They are holidays of the christians, candy and the country where we ALL live.

Swing and a miss. It's actually a little racist. It's like suggesting that we don't have to have black history month because there are watermellon festivals. Not really cool.
