IN 1967 Ottawa abandoned ‘selective immigration and threw this country open to . * the world, with results that .are now apparent. We were assured it wouldn't

make much difference. Oh, we . - might get a few more immigrants

‘. from Asia and the Caribbean, but

~ the ethnic makeup of Canada

‘would remain much the same because only the skilled would be admitted.

That turned out to be so much puffery. Almost immediately we were accepting anybody and his dog.

- Two years previously the same

scenario had been acted out in the “U.S. The American elite decided

“racism’’ was a bad thing. So selec-

tive immigration from Europe was

»For both Canada and the US. those decisions have been disasters.

_» Alien Nation is a clever title. it means that if present immigration trends continue, the traditional American will become an alien in his own land. ; i That is almost the case already in California; where the ethnic bal- ance will tip five years from now. The same will apply in the rest of: the U.S. in the next’50 years. Brimelow states boldly that in American politics, race is destiny. But the book is nota racist tirade. Its sub-title is Connon Sense About America’s fnunigration Disaster, and the book is well researched. It has also received wide publicity. Immigration is now NEWS. : itshould have an inspact in Canada because the American story is our story. Where immigration calamities are concemed no coun- ‘try takes second place to our litle old True North... > The U.S. is pulling in about a nition a j immigrants a year.

But to equal the Canadian intake it would have to take more than twice that number. In addition, however, it gets between two to three million illegals. Why? Because Washington lacks the will to stop to them. (So does Ottawa.) :

All qualify for the benefits of

the welfare state. The vast majority

hail from the Third World, and native-born white Americans often have to take second place to them. Hence the revolt in California with regard to affirmative action.

Brimelow claims there.is no precedent in history for what has happened since the 1965

, Immigration Act was passed in the

U.S. think he is wrong there and that the threat to Canada is every bit as great. However, it is clear that the old American nation is being dissolved as a matter of pub- lic policy. \tis being “snuffed out like a candle in a gale.” as he puts it. .

The people have never been asked whether they want that, Theirs is not to reason why! They have, however. been the victims of deception,

1965 was Senator Edward Kennedy, who said: “First, our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants .

‘annually. Under the proposed bill

the present level of irsmigration remains substantially the same .... “Secondly, the ethnic mix of this country will not be upset ...”. He couldn't have been more wrong. Small wonder that he “had no time” to give answers to writen questions Brimelow wished to put to him. ~ His brother, Robert Kennedy, was also wrong. He said Asian immigration in the U.S. would be’ no more than 5,000 a year, whereas

the actual total between 1968, when the Bill took effect, and 1991, was 5,648,420.

Brimelow states that the silence of the elite with regard to the changing ethnic make-up of America is a species of treason with ominous political and social consequences, Read this book to find out what they are.
