Open Letter to Justin Trudeau [via Vancouver Sun]




Thanks go to Edmonton Alberta's Jay O'Neill who made a comment sharing an unknown author's open letter to Justin Trudeau at the comments section of a Vancouver Sun article entitled "Canada replacing its population a case of wilful ignorance, greed, excess political correctness" June 4, 2017... here is the original article 

"An Open Letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
So many letter writers have explained how this land is made up of immigrants. Maybe we should turn to our history books and point out to people why today’s Canadian is not willing to accept this new kind of immigrant any longer.
Back in 1900 when there was a rush from all areas of Europe to come to Canada, people had to get off a ship and stand in a long line in Halifax or Vancouver and be documented. Some would even get down on their hands and knees and kiss the ground. They made a pledge to uphold the laws and support 
their new country in both good and bad times.
They made learning English a primary rule in their new Canadian households and some even changed their names to blend in with their new home. They had waved good bye to their birthplace to give their children a new and better life and did everything in their power to help their children assimilate into one culture.
Nothing was handed to them. No free lunches, no welfare, no labour laws to
protect them. Perhaps some were fortunate enough - like my great grandfather - to be given 160 acres of prairie grassland. All they had were the skills, craftsmanship and desire they had brought with them to trade for a future of prosperity.
It wasn't easy.
Most of their children came of age when World War II broke out. Canadians - like my Dad - fought alongside men whose parents had come straight over from Germany, Italy, France, Japan, China, Czechoslovakia, Russia, Sweden, Poland and so many other places. None of these first generation Canadians ever gave any thought about what country their parents had come
from. They were Canadians fighting Hitler, Mussolini and the Emperor of Japan. They were defending the Freedom as one people.
When we liberated France & the Netherlands no one in those villages was looking for the Ukrainian-Canadian, Scottish-Canadian, German-Canadian or the Irish-Canadian.
The people of Paris and Amsterdam saw only Canadians. And they carried one flag that represented Our Country.
Not one of those immigrant sons would have thought about picking up another country’s flag and waving it to represent who they were. It would have been a disgrace to their parents who had sacrificed so much to be here.
These immigrants truly knew what it meant to be a Canadian. They stirred the melting pot into one red and white bowl.
And here we are in 2017 with a new kind of immigrant who wants the same rights and privileges, only they want to achieve it by playing with a different set of rules - one that includes a Canadian passport and a guarantee of being faithful to their mother country.
I'm sorry, that's not what being a Canadian is all about. Canadians have been very open-hearted and open-minded regarding immigrants, whether they were fleeing poverty, dictatorship, persecution, or whatever else makes us think of those aforementioned immigrants who truly did ADOPT our country, our flag, our morals and our customs, and left their wars, hatred, and divisions behind. I believe that the immigrants who landed in Canada in the early 1900s deserve better than that for the toil, hard work and sacrifice of those legally searching for a better life.
I think they would be appalled that they are being used as an example by those waving foreign country flags, fighting foreign battles on our soil, making Canadians change to suit their religions and cultures, and wanting to change our countries fabric by claiming discrimination when we do not give in to
their demands.
It's about time we get real and stand up for our forefathers rights. We are CANADIAN!
I am a Native of this Country and proud of it!
NO MORE POLITICAL CORRECTNESS!
And while we're on the subject - allow CHRISTMAS back in stores and our schools!
I want back the country of my birth.
P.S. -- Please pass this on to everyone you know!!!
KEEP THIS LETTER MOVING!!
Hope this letter is read by millions of people all across Canada! We are letting people live here that hate our way of life! WHY? I'm asking YOU why???????"
