Helena D'Orville 33237 Report post Posted June 18, 2015 While Canada is a country built on immigration - just like the north american continent has been - our government has decided that immigrants or individuals who became Canadian Citizens - even when they were born here - can be considered just second class citizens when they do not fit in the picture anymore: https://bccla.org/2015/06/its-official-second-class-citizenship-goes-into-effect/ Asked in a very simplistic way: is this right or wrong? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest s******ecan**** Report post Posted June 18, 2015 Wrong and unconstitutional. Worst government ever. I urge everyone to vote for the local candidate most likely to defeat your local PC candidate. This may mean voting for a party you do not generally support but it will ensure the defeat of Stephen Harper. Make no mistake, Harper's only chance at re-election is if vote splitting of NDP and Liberal votes allows them to sneak through the middle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest *Ste***cque** Report post Posted June 18, 2015 Why the need? And who exiles citizens anymore? We seem to be regressing or at least becoming more polarized as a society, thanks to the conservatives pandering to what seems a frightened, moralizing base. I wish there was a decent alternative to my vote this fall. I won't vote NDP on principal so it's up to Justin Trudeau to show he's ready. I don't think my conscience will allow me to vote conservative. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phaedrus 209521 Report post Posted June 18, 2015 This looks like a very good way to get rid of people who inconvenience or embarrass the government. And another 9-0 SCC ruling in the works. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldblueeyez 15475 Report post Posted June 19, 2015 Something's going down in Chinatown (and Little Russia too). This isn't about ISIS, this is about WW3. The anti-Russia/anti-China rhetoric in the mainstream media has notched into high gear. The recession of 2008 isn't over; we're in the middle of the Next Great Depression (I'd say we're in a depressionary era when Greece seriously considers defaulting on its debts). What came after the last Great Depression? WW2. AmeriKa/NATO is pushing for global war, perhaps a diversion from how bad things are going to get. This is about deporting anyone with a Chinese/Russian passport when the time comes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
