Only 57% of Canadian Households Own a Canadian Flag

Ipsos Reid did a survey for Canada Day with the Dominion Institute (note that Canada Day should still be called Dominion Day as it was originally, but the liberals under Trudeau changed it because of course as we know, liberals hate Canada the way it was built and must change it to suit them, provided the United Nations—and France—agrees to it).

Aside from the sad flag stat in my headline, here’s a glimpse of some trending that the liberals have established for our country and its future:

Older Canadians are more likely than younger Canadians to display the Canadian flag if they own one, with six in ten (60%) Canadians aged 55 and older indicating that their household’s flag is on display, while only four in ten (38%) Canadians aged 18 to 34 indicate that their household’s flag is on display.

Go team. 

Now apart from those rather dismal flag stats, here’s a survey question that the Liberal Frenchman Stephane (the “Green Guru”) Dion will ignore (mostly because it wasn’t in one of the daily polls commissioned by the Liberal Party (but paid for by taxpayers) to help keep them in power like in the good old days…)

Nearly 40 per cent of Canadians are against dual citizenship.  But Dion doesn’t care. Let them eat gateau, etc.

As Canada celebrates its birthday this Canada Day weekend, a new Ipsos Reid poll conducted on behalf of the Dominion Institute finds that four in ten (39%) Canadians are against the current policy regarding dual citizenship, and believe that Canadian citizens should not be allowed to simultaneously hold citizenship of a country other than Canada.

Here’s one of the parts of the report which I think helps contrast Canada’s liberal-leftist voters to traditional conservative Canadian voters (Joel’s key: libs=pinko pink; normal Canadians=angelic white):

But what is it that Canadians attribute to the success of this society, which so adeptly integrates various cultures, religions and ethnicities? Seven in ten (69%) Canadians believe that part of what makes Canada a successful society today is that Canadians share a common history, heroes and national symbols. However, three in ten (31%) Canadians are of a differing opinion, and agree that part of what makes Canada successful today is the lack of a strong national identity that individuals and groups are expected to adopt.

Only liberals could possible construct a “logic” whereby a LACK of national identity could possibly make this a better country.  But then they heart the U.N. so… 

And as if to prove my contention that Canadian academia are actually only state-funded full-on liberal-left indoctrination centers (stocked with neo-Marxist and sundry “progressive” professors):

Interestingly, the most likely to believe that Canada’s success is attributed to the lack of a strong national identity are Canadians who hold a university degree (38%).

That’s “progressive”. 

Go team. 

Here’s another part where liberals get confused:

Taking a look at some of those unifying and quintessentially Canadian symbols, most Canadians say that they feel attached to the maple leaf (87%), the beaver (74%), hockey (73%), and the “mountie” (72%).

Liberal confusion:  A beaver is a rodent.  Seriously. 

And liberals, maple leafs are essentially green, not red.  National symbols aren’t supposed to be modeled after party colors, liberals.  Our flag should obviously be blue-white-blue, with a green maple leaf in the middle.  That’s just so obviously not liberal, and so, ipso-facto,  it is red-white-red with an absurd red maple leaf in the middle.  Vote liberal.  Thank you. Oh yeah and death to America.)

Also, there’s this disheartening fact for liberals and their sacred United Nations world government and fans of the global socialist order (hi Jack!):

Just 8% of Canadians say that they most closely associate with belonging to the whole world.

Darn the luck. 

Extra tidbits:

• When asked what geographic locality Canadians most closely belong, more Canadians indicated that they belong to their country, first and foremost, than any other geographic region.

• Canadians also feel attached to the canoe (39%) (thanks to the state-run CBC’s 5-part “Trudeau is a Canoeing God” series which they re-run 80 times per year, not the Indians) and the Tim Hortons “timbit” (31%).  Please note that Tim Hortons is not a Canadian company but rather an American company.  If it were Canadian, it would naturally be subsidized and would have several o’ them Benevolent Liberal-Leftist Big Nanny-State Government Teat logos under the name on their signs, and stuffed into each donut hole, and imprinted on the coffee cup rims so as to put you in the mind of sucking the government teat when you sip your coffee (with your legalized pot).

• Re the flag thing: I bought a new flag for Canada Day because I hate it when our flag doesn’t look new.  The previous flag was purchased to commemorate the ouster of the Liberal Party as our national government.
