Welcome to Canada

In keeping with my guest-poster status here at/on the BMEWS, I’ve dredged up one of my old blog entries to post tonight.

I don’t know why I picked this one, but it’s just as relevant a year later. Maybe it’s because it flies in the face of the “retain your culture, it’s probably better than ours” dogma that’s been Canadian Government policy for most of the past 40 years. A good indication of that can be found in Mark Steyn’s excellent column entitled “Windsor Hassle” at The Western Standard Website.

But I digress.

Canada, like a lot of other places, is a nation of immigrants. My maternal grandparents came from the Ukraine in the 1910s, and on the paternal side, my ancestors started filtering in 1837 from England and Ireland.

But enough background. Here’s my original post:

Welcome to Canada. We’re glad you’re here. For some of you, we can’t even begin to imagine the kind of life you had where you came from. So be a part of us.

Before you get settled in, though, here’s a couple of rules to follow:

1. Leave any hatred and mistrust of the police where you came from. The hard-working police in Canada are dedicated men and women who maintain the rule of law in this country. That means if you see someone breaking the law, call 911 and tell them. Don’t automatically assume that all cops are “on the take”, because they aren’t.

2. Leave any hatred and mistrust of other ethnic groups where you came from. We have enough problems of our own. While those problems may pale in comparison to what you’ve been through, they’re our problems none the less.

3. Your culture is yours. Share it with us. Let us know why you’re you, and we’ll let you know why we’re us. Don’t think for a minute, though, that being of a different culture means that you’re immune to criticism either as an individual or a group. Because you’re not, and here, none of us is. If you do find yourself criticized, crying “racist” doesn’t help.

4. Here’s a list of our friends: The United States, The United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, the Caribbean countries, Israel, most of Europe, hell - most of the world. Here’s a list of countries and groups we’re not overly fond of: Hezbollah, al Qaeda, Islamic Jihad, and any other terrorist organization including the warlords running parts of Africa, and the governments of Iran and North Korea. If you’re here to support the bad guys, turn around, ‘cause we don’t want you.

5. Strive for success. Start a business. Be part of the community - not just “yours”, but “ours”. Teach your children right from wrong without using another ethnic group or culture as (bad) examples.

6. Women have rights in this country. If your culture deems women as “second-class”, or that it can be justified to beat or kill them, then it’s best to stay where you are.

7. Drop the hyphen. We don’t need to know that you’re a “this"-Canadian or a “that"-Canadian. Simply “Canadian” is fine, thank-you.

Anyone else like to add to the list, perhaps as a guide to those coming to their country?

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
