The Diplomad writes us off as a nation, unfortunately, but that’s what you get, I suppose, when governed by Liberals. You thought liberals (the likes of Carolyn Parrish) only embarrassed us on Canadian television, didn’t you? But actually no—they also embarrass us all over the world—in an official diplomatic capacity—when cameras aren’t pointed at them.
In Canada Cracks-Up: Good-Bye Ol’ Friend, and Thank God for the Aussies, an American attends an official Canada Day celebration function abroad—and writes about it. It’s not flattering. It’s real. Liberals ought to be able to take it since they’ve dished it out so much but I have to tell you I find it disconcerting when I find myself caught in the same net as the liberals I so want to defeat.
I’d say he’s read all my posts, but you’d be wrong again—the impression out there in the world is that the LIBERALS’ CANADA is in fact the real Canada, and the only Canada. The likes of us on the right don’t exist in that picture.
I’m quoting way too much of his post here, but it’s so relevant to our little forum, the very name of which I sometime have to liken to “The Little Engine That Could”.
[…] It was a standard evening dip reception, to wit, carved ice swan, gummy canapes, warm drinks, and lots of inane banter among several hundred milling guests. Canadians are generally gracious hosts and traditionally hard to distinguish from their southern neighbors—until they say “out” or “house,” that is. But of late, and certainly at this event, they seem determined to ensure that there is no confusion, that the definition of Canada is “We’re not the USA.”
[…] The Diplomad has watched Canada slip and slide away on the international scene. A country once known for considerable military prowess … and for having a tough SOB military, is now virtually defenseless. The NRA could muster considerably more firepower than Canada’s “military.” Hell, most Boy Scout Troops could. Whatever the flaws in US immigration policy (we know, we know) we have an iron wall compared to the (suicidal?) immigration policy of Canada, in particular its—never better said—insane asylum policy. Canada once had a foreign policy of realism and staunch support for the pro-West alliance (e.g., anti-Fascist, anti-Communist) but has let it evolve into a squishy, feminized (“girlie-man”?) series of attitudes, i.e., the search for the politically correct pose of the moment, in short, Canada is now the Mother Teresa of nations—a chunk of Sweden that has drifted away (or is Sweden a chunk of Canada?)
Canadian diplomats will bore you to tears with tales of how some UN agency or NGO has declared Canada the “best country on earth.” The same diplomats cannot explain why Canada’s best and brightest (remember the slide show?) head off for the barbarian south. They will point to the Clintons’ praise for the Canadian health system, but can’t explain the steady exodus of Canadian patients and doctors south (Note—Clinton did not have his by-pass in Toronto.)
On one thing, however, the Canadian diplomats are “manly-girl” rock solid: detesting the United States. And while Hollywood considers Canada a cheap backlot copy of the USA—and a place where the likes of Martin Sheen get a respectful hearing—Canada is not at all like the USA, to Canada’s detriment.
Canada has become for all intents and purposes a Third World country: Egypt with snow. It whines; it cries; it takes the UN seriously; it hopes that the terrorists will leave them alone, in other words that Moloch will eat them last. All symptoms of a country torn apart by insecurity and not really sure that 10-15 years from now Canada will still exist.
So what do our “friends” in the North do as they confront their national crisis? They build a
monument to honor/honour American draft dodgers. They implement Sharia Law . Yes, indeed. All those poor Muslim women who fled to Canada to get away from Sharia, now, in the name of multi-culturalism, get to “enjoy” it in their new home.[…]
