Liberals continue their undying push to smash the traditioinal Canadian family (you know, the ones that built this nation) with, among other things, their ridiculous socialist national universal daycare program which they’re currently trying to push onto our society. They promise (promise!) to model it after our health care system. They say it like it’s a positive. A selling point. Which shows you how absurd and really just out-of-touch they are—and how little they think of you.
The fact that so many Canadians buy this liberal-left tripe alarms me daily. That’s why I do all this.
Columnist John Derringer of the Toronto Sun writes an excellent column about it called “Politics of national daycare”. As I see it, it speaks to the quintessential liberalism that has taken over this country and must be stopped.
I’ve robbed the last three paragraphs but please read the whole thing.
[…] From a social, rather than economic standpoint, I certainly don’t buy the assertion that staying home with children somehow “invalidates” women. My wife stays at home to raise our 14-month-old daughter. No job, no career, no calling she might possibly accept could make me respect or love her more than I do. It’s as simple as what she’ll do today: Spend her day teaching, nurturing and loving our daughter the way no daycare professional ever could. If she was going to Sunnybrook to perform heart surgery, I wouldn’t find her any more impressive than I do for what she does for Madison. I firmly believe that what she’s doing today will pay off in our daughter’s future.
Getting back to the lugubrious Ken Dryden, his response to Ambrose was as nonsensical as his legislation. When confronted with a poll by the Vanier Institute of the Family that indicated that close to 100% of Canadian parents would raise their toddlers at home if they could afford it, Dryden suggested that Canadians responded that way “out of guilt,” and not because that was what they really felt. How a guy like Ken Dryden, who has led a life of privilege since his days as a star goalie at Cornell, could profess to speak for the average Canadian parent is way beyond me.
A wealthy “old white man” trying desperately to push forth “progressive” legislation that is both poorly constructed and basically flawed, is not an anomaly—it’s the past 30 years of Canadian political history.
