keh ild Wednesday, November 3, 1993 ~ North Shore News ~ 7 ON THE OTHEA HAND AS FAR as I know, no col- umnist in the country has written an honest word about race and ‘‘racism."’ I therefore offer myself for sacrifice. Nothing breeds greater humbug than race, But for the first time in nearly 50 years the genic was Ict out of the bottle in the recent election. That happened because the Reform party came out for reducing our disastrous immigra- tion intake and wiping out official multiculturalism; also because it ‘has dawned on ail but the dim- mest wiis thal we are destroying traditional Canada. “Racism”’ is the taboo through which it is being done. No bone-in-the-nose savages were ever more eager to bow down be- ‘fore their idols than our liberals are to grovel before the taboo of > “racism,"* .”. All the parties condesnned it, ; and Preston Manning was busy casting out the unclean so that his critics wouldn’t have him for breakfast. But immigration, and therefore race, was a big undcr- ground issue, as even the media had to admit. Thousands voted Reform because they knew that the party’s platform might be a start-toward saving Canada, despite Manning's ‘politically correct pretensions. The same sort of thing was true of the other parties, but in reverse. Chinese and East Indians , were bused in to Liberal nomina- tion meetings in key ridings in the Lower Mainland —. with predict- able results in Richmond and South Vancquver, where those &é No other country has brainwashed itself on the race question as much as Canada. 99 races are strong. Wasn't that racism? It would have been denounced as such from one end of the country lo the other if whites had done it. For proof, look no further than the infamous Ku Klux Klan car- toon on the Reform party carried by the Vancouver Sun. No other country has brain- washed itself on the race question as much as Canada. The word “white’’ is suspect and federal and provincial grants are devoted to furthering the interests of non- whites, So it made me laugh wien Defence Minister Tom Siddon was voted out by the Chinese his gov- ernment had brought in. Toa great extent, “human rights’ are all about racism. And those who say we should preserve our own heritage can end up in front of kangaroo courts. Uniess they're Quebecers preserving French Canada, that is. The outcome is that there are now 3,000,000 minority ethnics in Canada. And more multitudes are on the way. Seven years from now that number will have doubled. By the middle of the next cen- tury your grandchildren will be living in a northern Brazil. The same rotten politics has brought racial and social ruin to California, Florida and many other parts of the U.S. Politicians and bureaucrats look after their own interests first, you see, and as long as people cower under the lash of ‘‘racism’’ they’re happy. They care even less if floods of phoney refugees from Somalia steal millions in welfare money in order to send it back home for guns. That’s a matter for the police, they shrug. Nor do they worry if im- migrants from Somalia have two wives and 14 kids all living from the public pot. * Reform party candidate Herb Grube! spoke the truth when he said that immigrants of the past 15 years have been a ‘‘net burden.” The Sun and other media folk did their vsual dance of indigna- tion. But Grube! was elected any- Hearing Tests Set For Senior Citizens North Vancouver — Hearing tests will be given at the Beltone Hearing Aid Centre in North Vancouver on Monday to Thursday from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Anyone who has trouble hearing is welcome to have the test.

Net burdens are inevitable when the password (o getting into this country is “refugee’’; or ‘family reunification’; or when new- comers are illiterate even in their own languages. Does race matter? Read the papers or watch the news. From Armenia to Africa, from fsrael to America, and from Colombo to Canada, the subject dominates, But oaly in the white world is any attention paid to the multicult taboo. The Japanese make no bones about preferring their own kind, No Somalis for them. No whites, either. And their prosperity proves that immigration is not necessary for economic well-being, Race? Ask your liberal friends whether it would matter to them if they woke up one day to find they were the only whites left ina neighborhood stuffed with blacks from Detroit, Race? What do you think sent Canadians to fight in 1939? Would they have gone to China to fight for the Chinese? “The mother country called and the race answered,” said Winston Churchill, and old ‘‘racist’’ from way back.
