No, what's killing the country is peeps like you walking around talking US politic slogans like wokeness and complaining that immigrants don't have the same colour of skin as us white folk.  Maybe as you age you'll realize that people are people regardless of colour or religion...?

I would happily refer this forum to anyone who claims there is little discrimination or prejudice among Canadians as proof otherwise.

Between the anti-native sentiment and the oft expressed complaints that anything that attempts to correct historical wrongs is discrimination against white people, to obscuring the same thing as being against 'tradition' makes that pretty damn clear.

It would be nice to have opinions from actual conservatives once in a while, rather than only those on it's extreme fringes.

All of the Left's social polices are products of the US culture war. All its equity and diversification policies. All it's trans nonsense and drag queen weirdness, the BLM bullshit, the incredibly patronizing preferences shown to blacks, the racist sentencing, weak law enforcement, and easy bail, the wide open immigration, the wallowing in guilt and snivelling, teary-eyed apologies over the alleged misdeeds of people long dead, all of it is red, white, and blue Yankee origin.

All of this that the Liberal Party has embraced. It's all American. It's all about importing the American culture wars into Canada.

And then people like you snivel if conservatives complain and accuse them of embracing US political slogans.

Are you really this hypocritical, or are you just this stunningly ignorant?

Almost all of which has been deliberately created by the Liberal Party and its leftist allies with their paternalistic treatment of natives, their lavish spending on them, their insistence in every word, sentence, and deed that they are the legitimate owners of all of Canada, and everyone else is merely an illegal 'settler' on stolen land, their insispid, virtue signalling land acknowledgements seeking to drum into unwilling audiences that natives are the true owners of the land, it all insights people to think "Fine, let's fight over it. And this time, all survivors on the losing side get expelled to wherever will take them."

That's quite the rant.  I don't recall much talk at all around BLM or patronizing to blacks as of late so other than your bigotry, not sure where that comes from within this thread.  And of course you need to reference trans because that's the US style politics you've been influenced to spout. I don't snivel about that at all. I just find it odd and more so disappointing that we have a faction in this country that has digressed to the narratives that Trump has perpetuated and Poilievre try's to emulate.  Enjoy that, just not for me...

But he's correct! Our own MiniMe is making judicial revenge, mistaking his rival as someone no longer there, bringing up every divisive issue from trans, DEI, immigration and crime as his Orange Overlord.
Hoping Canadians will not notice that not a single constructive alternative is being offered, only years of more total negativity and obstructionism.

Copied the entire playbook of US electioneering. Look for gerrymandering next.

Didn't European white man bring an educated, cultured, and civilized way of life to an uncivilized, barbaric people? 

Or must we stick with the lying liberal, woke narrative that aboriginal culture is superior and we are the uncivilized invaders?

Be honest now.  Do you prefer lies to truth?

Do you think all residential schools were really as bad as many red power people claim?  Or did they help teach aboriginal children the more civilized ways of the settlers?  

Certainly the res schools taught how to speak and write in English.  That must be a basic requirement to get many jobs in the new world.   What future was there for aboriginal children on reserves?  Off reserves, what future was there without giving them an education?

And we are still waiting for all of those residential schools to produce one Indian grave. The lie about so many Indian graves found of Indian children was just another Indian anti-white lie. The white people brought the Indians into the modern world and look what we get for doing so. More Indian lies and bullshit and of course more Indian anti-white racism. Lieberals here do not want to learn the truth. The Indians only live on emotion rather than with common sense. ☹️

While America gets better every day with Trump in office, Canada gets worse with Carnage in office. Again lefty, what has Carnage the destroyer done so far to make Canada great? There must be something you as a lieberal can give me, eh? 

I know that Carnage wants to take freedom of speech away and create more censorship laws. Wow, what a hero. 🤮

You wouldn't pay any attention. You consider DEI and special programs for Blacks to be only right and proper and only get indignant if anyone suggests they should be treated like everyone else. Because in your heart, you consider blacks uncivilized people incapable of acting like whites.

No, because the entire trans issue has been lifted wholesale from the US. Your views are identical fo whatever it is the Amerian Left feels at any given time.  You aren't capable of independent thought. Whatever your American heros think, that's what you will think.

it has become a fairly common practice in the past few years in B.C. to rename anything possible with aboriginal names that cannot be spelled with the normal alphabet and definitely cannot be pronounced by ordinary Canadians. 

One example is a public school which has been renamed C̓uumaʕas Tsuma-as Elementary School.

Loon Lake renamed ʕaʔuk ʔaama k̓anis

For example, the town of Greenville became known again as Laxgalts’ap,

The name Stawamus is the anglicized version of St’á7mes, which refers to a village site at the base of the mountain. The mountain’s names known as Siy̓ám Smanít to the Squamish, meaning Highly Respected Mountain or Smánit tl’a St’á7mes (Mountain of St’á7mes).

These changes seem to be totally blind to the real world.  Who can even begin to pronounce these bizarre spellings?  They don't meet any kind of rule of grammar or rational thinking.  They are useless because nobody can pronounce them.  It is extremely doubtful there is any aboriginal who could even pronounce such a name.

They seem to add strange shaped symbols to the spelling which are not even a part of the alphabet.  They do not meet any rules of grammar or pronunciation.  

So what is the reason for all these changes in place names?

Perhaps it is all part of the pushback against the colonials for being here.  Perhaps part of an effort to claim vast areas of land that never even occupied to begin with and demand endless compensation from non-natives for even being here.  

Welcome to your new Canada where native Indian genocide towards white folk has now become a way of life here in BC. BC cannot do anything anymore without the blessing of the Indian feather along with their tom-tom and war dance music. The native Indians in BC now own the white folk and pretty much all of BC. I suspect that very soon there will be another tax created by the NDP communists to be able to give more of our white tax dollars to the native Indians. Or maybe we are already paying an Indian tax and is hidden somewhere? Hey, we never know, eh? 

There use to be an island called the Queen Charlotte Islands off the BC mainland coast. Now that islands name has been changed to an Indian name called Haida Gwaii. What is next? Change the name of Vancouver Island to some other Indian name. In BC we never know with the NDP in power. The NDP despises all things with a colonial British name. Just saying.

Everything that is going on bad is always due to the Orange mans fault in Canada. It is not Trump that has made Canada broke and pretty much bankrupt, it is the that lieberal Marxist globalist buffoon in Ottawa that is the problem in Canada. 

I was surprised the other day to see that there were not so many leftwing Marxist Canadians demonstrating in Toronto against a No Kings day and that Trump is a dictator. America has no king, and if Trump were a dictator, there would be no demonstrations allowed in America any longer. Those demonstrators are totally clueless and out to lunch. They speak before they think. 

But yet, does not Canada have a Monarchy and that Canada does have a king? The longer this country exists, the crazier it will get. Half of the people in Canada are phkn insane. Just my opinion.

FYI, you are the resident Marxist Antifa anti white troll here and you cannot stop trying to drown out anyone here that is conservative and who says things that makes common sense. Some people in the world have no problem with having a pro white group around fighting for old whitey. Unlike you, you appear to cannot wait and you keep on fighting until your communist revolution takes over Canada and Canada ends up looking like a 3rd world communist multicultural hell hole. 

Go live in Cuba if you want to live in a communist hell hole country, comrade. We will do just fine without you darling hanging around Canada and trying to destroy Canada with your Marxist lies and bullshit. I doubt that there are that many here who will take you serious. I certainly do not take a Marxist like you very serious at all. To me you are just another one of those Marxist trolls here who just wants to spread more commie useless lies and bullshit. Live with it, comrade. LOL.

Indeed, the Native Indians should show a little more respect to the white folk that brought them out of the bush ND into the modern world and gave them all that they have today instead of constantly mocking and attacking old whitey all the time. It was the white man that stopped the Indians from killing each other. If it were not for old whitey, they would no doubt be still living in the bush and killing each other. If they do not like old whitey, then why don't they stop taking white mans money and save me some tax dollars. How hard can that be for them to do? Show a little respect. Works for me, comrade. 😂

The way things are going on in Canada these days, we all may just have to learn to speak Punjabi one day. 

The Eats Indians here in Canada do not have to learn to speak English at all. The government caters to them in their own Punjabi language and they are told by our government that they now live in a multicultural country and do not have to become a part of Canadian culture.

The East Indians have their own TV and radio stations, their own newspapers, their own schools, their own churches, their own community halls, their own gas stations and their own fast food joints and they pretty much run and own everything else here in BC. No fooling. There should be a big fight coming up one of these days between the Native Indians and the East Indians for the control and takeover of Canada. I wonder as to who i should put my bets on to win? 🤣🤣🤣

You and your fellow minions have to follow the trans narrative because that's one of the pressing social issues you've been told to rail about. Sorry to disappoint but I have no hero's and certainly none in US politics and am more than capable of forming my own opinions. Try it some time...

 

[Nefarious Banana]

The sad fact is that many generations of native Indians have not had or held jobs and do not know the joys and sorrows of being responsible for themselves.  To be wards of the government and not know any better is tragic.  

With the present Federal and Provincial governments there will be no change, no questions asked, and no accountability . . . for both sides.

I can wear both moccasins and cowboy boots . . . both fit, both are comfortable.

The Left insists on DEI because it thinks all non-whites are inferior and can't compete with Whites. And of all the inferior ones, none are as inferior as Blacks. That is definitely the way you guys think. Anyone trying to hold them to the same standards or make them compete with whites is being mean and nasty because that's just not fair.

It's the liberal bigotry of low expectations at play. And you're not capable of thinking anything different.

Do you even know as to what you are talking about? So, are you trying to say and portray here that Native Indians and black people are more superior to white people? Who built up the world and invented and created all the great things that the world all enjoys today? It is for sure that it was not those two. Those two only knew as to how to fight and kill each other and it was the white people that put an end to those fighting's and killings that went on for centuries.

That is fact and not fiction. Those two should be thankful that old whitey came along and gave them what they have and enjoy today. A little bit of respect is what is needed here for old whitey. Not this continuation and condemnation of attacking and mocking old whitey. Just my opinion of course until your dear comrade leader in Ottawa says that i may not be allowed to have my own opinion at all anymore.

It's already happening in the UK where many British citizen's on and using social media have been arrested and charged for giving an opinion that the communist government in Britain does not like to hear or read. Wake up, you dumb azz lieberal, if that is even possible for the likes of you to be able to do so. Hello?
