The United Kingdom is at a civilizational inflection point. Thanks to a massive disconnect between multiculturalist elites and an indigenous citizenry whose outrage is boiling over, the UK has become a tinderbox over the issue of mass immigration and attendant issues such as skyrocketing knife crime and rapes, as well as freedom of speech threatened by the imminent adoption of Islamic blasphemy laws. And now a new poll reveals, albeit not surprisingly, that UK youth lack the patriotism to fight for their homeland.
Elon Musk made a surprise ap pearance during Germany’s AfD (Alternative fuer Deutschland) election campaign event in Halle in eastern Germany on Saturday, speaking publicly in support of the far-right party for the second time in as many weeks.
Addressing a hall of 4,500 people alongside party leader Alice Weidel, Musk spoke live via video link about preserving German culture and protecting the German people.
“It’s good to be proud of German culture, German values, and not to lose that in some sort of multiculturalism that dilutes everything,” Musk said.
Whether President-elect Donald Trump’s campaign for Canada to join the United States is a negotiation strategy, a passing fancy, or reflects a genuine belief, it has provoked a defiant and fiery “Never!” from Canadian politicians and public figures across the spectrum.
But the backlash against the idea of becoming the 51st U.S. state exposes a deep contradiction in a country where in recent years there’s been a systematic effort to erase the Canadian identity and founding history.
How diverse is your neighbourhood? A new website shows how immigration to Canada has transformed our cities
Have you ever wondered how your local community stacks up when it comes to diversity in ethnicities, income levels, language spoken or education attainments?
Residents of Canada’s six largest metropolitan areas can now check that out through a website launched on Monday that tracks the transformation of the country by immigration down to the neighbourhood level.
Coined “Superdiversity,” the project crunches immigration and census data into interactive graphics and maps that showcase Canada’s changing landscapes and how socioeconomic indicators such as wealth, income, employment status and education play out across ethnic groups, generations of newcomers and neighbourhoods.
Diversity is code for anti-white racism in Canada and has turned a once great nation into a balkanized low trust society of 5th column imported sectarian hatreds. The Star hates you.
In Justin Trudeau's own words, being born in Canada, makes you less of a Canadian than people who show up here. He says being born here means you "defaulted in".
He speaks & acts as if Canadians don't deserve Canada.
Support for Canadian multiculturalism is not a free-flowing fountain of unlimited harmony and goodwill. It has limits, and they have been breached for all to see.
On Friday, Liberal MP Chandra Arya reported that he was threatened by fellow Liberal Sukh Dhaliwal and aggressively accosted by another unnamed MP in the hallways of Parliament. In response to these events, Arya complained that he “should be able to express (his) opinion, (his) views, freely in the House and (he) should not (feel) threatened by any words or actions of (his) fellow members.”
The Welsh Government has pledged to change the “beliefs and behaviour of the white majority” in Wales.
Labour’s devolved administration vowed to eradicate racism by 2030, and set out an anti-racist action plan which insists that all aspects of public life are made “inclusive”.
To meet the demands of the plan, public bodies have launched policies which include potentially destroying statues of “old white men” that have been deemed offensive, and official reports have advised creating “dog free areas” to boost inclusion.
To counter antisemitism, Canadians must first be able to recognize it
By now, many Canadians are aware of the epidemic of antisemitism spreading across our country, and indeed, around the world. The violent antisemitic pogrom in Amsterdam last week – echoing the Kristallnacht pogrom that preceded the Holocaust – is merely the latest terrifying iteration of the explosion of global antisemitism.
Even before the Oct. 7 atrocities unleashed this global tsunami of anti-Jewish hate, here in Canada antisemitism was at the highest levels in recent history.
In the words of the late prime minister Brian Mulroney, “In the wake of the Holocaust … firewalls were thrown up, and the bonfires of antisemitism were for a time reduced to flickering embers. But those firewalls, weakened by the passage of time and willful neglect, have been breached. Cloaked in the armour of free speech, fuelled by hate and stoked by the oxygen of the internet and social media, those fires now burn out of control.”
The elites who brazenly insist we Yobs need to learn how to recognize our antisemitism are really attempting to shift blame for the current sorry state of affairs off their shoulders onto ours.
In Canada’s dingy corridors of power the Zionists trod the same rugs as the anti-Zionists. They belong to the same political parties and the same faculties, work for the same bureaucracies. Whether in government or the academy the worst purveyors of antisemitism are members of their community not ours. It’s their imported Muslim storm troopers who hijack our streets not Mom & Pop Canadian. The only time they pretend to be equals is well never really but occasionally a rubber stamp is required and some pantomime consultation is offered up as democracy. Otherwise we just take up space in their world and they don’t like us at all.
Deborah Lyons was hired as Antisemitism Tsarina by a Liberal party better suited to governing Gaza. That same Liberal Party has spent the last decade calling us racists and Islamophobes for pointing out the madness of their tolerance of a death cult.
Our “thought-leaders” wielded diversity and multiculturalism like clubs to silence dissent as they imported millions from incompatible cultures forever altering Canada’s demographic and not for the better.
I doubt the shiny new replacement Canadians they foisted on us will be very receptive to a lecture on antisemitism given they don’t give a whit for our heritage, culture and values.
But our Grand Poobah’s weren’t through hating us.
They decided it necessary to demonize the white working class with the application of their racist DEI programs. Our children are taught they are racist oppressors because their skin is white. Fine people from all sides of the Israeli-Arab divide have embraced DEI.
Now they have the nerve to offer us a teachable moment about our “antisemitism”.
As two-thirds of Canadians have indicated that there are “too many” immigrants in the country, a new national survey highlights another aspect of the immigration issue: concerns about newcomers’ integration in Canada.
Conducted by Leger for the Association for Canadian Studies (ACS), the poll found that one-fourth of Canadians believe immigrants should give up their customs and traditions, a sentiment shared by one-third of Canadians over the age of 55. In Quebec, one-in-three respondents feel that immigrants should give up their cultural practices.
A recent job posting from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) explicitly states the agency is hiring summer co-op students based on diversity.
CSIS told the Western Standard the DEI policy is in place because the intelligence agency believes it appropriately represents Canada’s population.
A key advisor in the Labour mission to make Wales “anti-racist” has claimed that racism is when “white people hold negative views” of other ethnicities.
The devolved government has pledged to make Wales anti-racist by 2030, and museums are now obliged to present the “right historic narrative” in their displays.
Taxpayer’s money will fund work which ensures the mandated narrative, and cash has gone to the “Re:Collections” project, which takes a leading role in this work by instructing Welsh museums on how to become “anti-racist organisations”.
There are several good reasons why medical schools would want to graduate physicians who reflect the diversity of Canada’s population. Studies show that patients tend to feel most comfortable with physicians who look or sound like them, who can communicate in their native languages, and/or who understand their cultural norms or religious practices. We know that institutional bias still exists in our medical system, and that Black, Indigenous and other racialized Canadians experience poorer health outcomes as a result. At worst, this bias manifests in extreme cases of medical neglect, such as that of Indigenous woman Joyce Echaquan, who was taunted by Quebec hospital staff as she writhed in pain, dying of pulmonary edema.
Canada’s newest medical school is slated to be one of the most discriminatory programs of its kind when it opens in 2025. Straight, white, “privileged” men won’t be warmly welcomed as MD candidates at Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson), as only a quarter of seats will be open to their kind.
By failing to learn the lessons of history — that hatred against Jews never stops with the Jews — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Liberals have destroyed the credibility of their claim that diversity is Canada’s strength.
… It soon became apparent that these demonstrations — though some within them were motivated by genuine concern for Palestinian suffering at least at the beginning— were in fact being driven by organizers who consider the terrorists of Hamas to be heroes.
Who hate Canada, hate our flag, and hate our way of life even though they were born here or chose to live here.
Men in their 20s and early 30s are much more likely than female peers to live with their parents, and many say they feel aimless and isolated
In Spanish, parents call it encaminado: making sure your children are on the path to an independent adulthood.
Out of Dan and Joana Moreno’s four grown kids, only their daughter is encaminada. She recently graduated from business school and got engaged. The Morenos’ three adult sons are still sleeping in their Miami childhood bedrooms. The younger two dropped out of college, and the oldest never went. All three are single. Their only work experience is with the family business.
“Something has gone amiss here,” says their father, Dan, who owns the repair chain Flamingo Appliance Service. “We love them, we love having them around, but that’s not how you build a life.”
The life trajectories of America’s sons and daughters are diverging.
Presented with a more-equal playing field, young women are seizing the opportunities in front of them, while young men are floundering. The phenomenon has developed over the past decade, but was supercharged by the pandemic, which derailed careers, schooling and isolated friends and families. The result has big implications for the economy.
The homily “Many a truth is said in jest” may apply to the opening paragraph of Joel Stein’s quasi-review of the comedic anti-DEI documentary Am I Racist? by anti-woke activist and satirist Matt Walsh, in The Hollywood Reporter.
