IT’S TIME to say a word about newspapers that don’t carry
the news, reporters who don’t report, and columnists who
should go back to knitting. I refer to our local dailies and to

Nicole Parton.

Parton has been having lunch
with Aziz Khaki, the East Indian
from Uganda, Tanzania, or some
place like that. Khaki is head of
the new Kill Collins Movement,
Parton is Parton, and neither is
any wiser for their having met.

Our story begins with Khaki tell-
ing advertisers to stop using the
North Shore News until 1 am
removed from its pages. (See my
piece for Jan. 11.)

Enter the weeping fem from the
Vancouver Sun, a white
multiculter who will hold a party
the day we go Third World. She is
also in favor of Khaki and his
mis-named Committee for Racial
Justice getting the $40,000 that Ot-
tawa gave him last year so he can
organize boycotts and teach us
democracy.

This pair had lunch to discuss
the sad state of affairs in which |
am allowed to peddie my rotten
opinions. Not that she mentions
my name. I am ‘‘a North Shore
newspaper columnist.’’ (Could she
be referring to Miss Manners? |
don’t think so.)

The outcome of the parley was a
sermonette in the Sun in which she
expounded on ‘‘racism’’ — which
to her and her newspaper means
any objection to turning this coun-
try into a suburb of Zanzibar, etc.

I figured in her treatise because |
am one of two or three in the Ca-
nadian media who raise their
voices about what is going on. It
was also sinful that I had ridiculed
her pet Zanzibarite.

So far, so good. I am all for
lively discussion. I lust indeed to
meet Parton, Khaki and any of
their friends who might like to
engage me in debate. It is astoun-

ding, though, that Pazton manag-
ed to write a piece aboui the Col-
lins/Khaki square-off without
mentioning what set it off.

She was indignant because I said
that Khaki wanted te introduce
*multi-cult style democracy"’ to
B.C. Well, that referred to his little
anti-free speech and boycott cam-
paign. But she ignored that. It
would have spoiled her story, in
which the Zanzibarite is portrayed
as a victim.

There’s something else that is
typical of Vancouver's daily press.

Former mayor Jack Volrich and
a few others have formed a group
called the British/European Im-
migration Aid Foundation, which
wants to get more Europeans into
this country, they being a dying
import.

The group held a meeting
recently to state its case. But the
case never got into the papers,
unless you call a couple of
miniscule quotes getting into the
papers. Why? Because to the Sun
and to the Partons anything such
people have to say is bad news and
“racist.”

The main speaker at the meeting
was West Van's Charles Campbell,
a former vice-chairman of the
Immigration Appeal Board who
knows what he is talking about.

In the Sun’s ‘‘coverage,”’ his
40-minute specch was reduced to
one paragraph, which is par for
the course. In its news column the
murning paper gave him nothing at
all, But a male Parton, one Bruce
McLean, did a number on the
meeting in which he too raved
about “‘racism,"’ his big thing be-
ing that a Scottish member of the
audience complained about the

kind of immigrants coming into
this country. (The Scot was right.
Are those so-called ‘‘refugees’’ the
salt of the earth?)

Parton won't be sobbing about
that invasion, though. Not until
she grows up. She may then also
notice that B.C. has become a
headquarters for Sikh terrorism
and Asiatic gangs, and that one
day we shall be a Miami or a
Detroit. A bonfire of the vanities,
as author Tom Wolfe has put it.

Parton, McLean and most other
white multiculters know nothing
about immigration. She stated, for
example, that the U.K. ranks third
in the list of countries sending
immigrants to Canada, so what's
the beef?

In fact, over 4 five-year period,
immigration from the U.K. has
tun a poor fourth to that from
Hong Kong, India and Vietnam. It
is usually between four and five
per cent of the total. And thanks
to Ottawa's policies, European
immigration as a whole has long
been overtaken by the Asiatic sort.
This year, too, we can expect that
80 per cent of immigrants will be
non-white. More cause for cheer-
ng
