Perhaps you should review recent scholarly studies which refute these
claims from the Immigration Industry.
The information you are using was based on post-war/pre 1980's
immigration streams and not on what has been going on in
recent years.
And why is it exactly "they know what life is like elsewhere" ?
Why are those countries they come from such a mess ?
Perhaps it has something to do with the people who live there.

Just don't apply to a "new canadian" business in Vancouver, they
only hire "their own".
Just don't apply to many mainstream firms in Vancouver for
sales and marketing positions, they are only seeking those
who are "bilingual" ( i.e. speak Mandarin or Cantonese).
And don't bother visiting any of these new ethnic shopping
ghettoes in Vancouver if you are "Canadian" you won't

I am not bitching about who will be my new neighbour. You don't like it then
move somewhere else. That is essentially why immigrants move to a new country,
to try to better their own lives.

Maybe you should look at the stats from Immigration Canada. According to those
stats the total refugees from 1987 to 1998 is 2,519,241. The highest year for
immigrants was in 1993-256,757 immigrants were admitted to Canada.

Usually the government that they are being dictated by puts their country in a
mess. Are you responsible for the GST, or is the Brian Mulroney govt
responsible for the GST? How can you blame immigrants for their country's
economic plights?

Everytime in the past when there was a numerous number of immigrants coming from
a specific country (ie Ukraine, Germany), there have always been the practice of
people that set up shops and business that hire their own. Any person that has
been of the Jewish faith has also been accused of this. Why is there always the
hysteria, that a particular culture or language will take over our own.
According to Immigration Canada, the largest number of immigrants came to Canada
in 1913, there was 400,870. The 3 previous years were a buildup to this number.
These immigrants were mainly from the Ukraine, and I don't here too many people
speaking Ukrainian on the streets.

The "OLD" citizens don't all vote LIBERAL, while most of the new one's do.
THAT, and only that, is the reason that the Cretin government is so gaga
with immigration. Look at those Chinese "refugees" recently captured off
the coast of Vancouver Island. Instead of being immediately deported the
Hell back to China, most of them were turned loose, simply having to
promise to report to immigration officials within 28 days. Yeah, right. If
you think ANY of them will report in, well I have some beach front land
in Florida to sell you. Genuine refugee are immigrants fleeing for their
lives. These people do NOT meet this important criterion.

I presume from this philosophy that if high levels of immigration continue,
you'll eventually be the "loser" and that'll be a-ok with you since brute
force wins all, right? If you can't hang onto the land then c'ya later? Some

It's partially the same argument ("we were here first") they use to
justify their anti-immigration and assimilation stance.

And in order to be consistent, you would apply that same principle
to the Indian population and immediately call for the end to all
" institutional protections " and " isolationism " for them, right ?

Assuming you're talking about American Indians, and that by
'isolationism' you're referring to the reserves - then yes.
>Assuming you're talking about American Indians, and that by
>'isolationism' you're referring to the reserves - then yes.
No I was referring to areas of land ceded by the crown whereby
Indians would be free to " isolate " themselves through location,
laws, and race. [ ie a certain treaty pending in BC ].
If the answer to the above is still yes, then how do you reconcile
your earlier comment that any culture which can only survive
through intervention and isolationism isn't worth saving ?

Very soon. It is known as Bill C-63. The Minister, within 5 years of
citizenship being granted, may revoke it. This sounds like a damn good
weapon to use on undesirables who "forgot" to include certain data on
their application, or, for whom, the truth has taken a little longer than
usual to come to light. Canadian citizenship should be made a LOT harder
to obtain. Also, when a person is born on Canadian soil to NON-Citizens,
citizenship should NOT be automatic..it should be tied to the status of
the infant's mother.

It would make more sence to make becomeing a citizen more difficult
rather than undermine the idea of citizenship by making it revokable.

Correct me if I am wrong but doesn't the government policy say that you only
have to be a canadian citizen to run for office? If this is the case then
when our government is made up of all one group (asian, chinese, french
whatever) who do you think they are going to support and who they are going

How much more of your paycheck can you afford to give away to support
someone else instead of your own children and family? Where do you suppose
the money comes from? The Kosovonians will be living on our money for the
next 2 years because the government says they can. In other words "welfare"
for them nothing for our own.

Well, maybe they just get tired of outrunning tanks, ducking bullets, being held
hostage in their own country. You know the old saying, "you can't fight City

This is a *really* bad example. Canada as a nation was bombing the area, these
refugees were fleeing terrorists. If we can afford to drop the bombs, fire the
bullets, we should take responsibility for our actions (isn't this also what you
are saying that parents should teach their children-take responsibility for
their actions?)

Well Irina, according to your paraniod thoughts, all these immigrants have high

Well sometimes a country's tyranny is stronger than the common citizen's will.
Why did your Mommy and Daddy run from Poland Irina?? Were potatoes hard to come
by? Did they get tired of the scenery? Did it not offer prayer in school? Do
you blame your Ma & Pa for not facing their govt's injustice to their people?
Were they scared and wanted a better life? Sheesh, think about it.

Irina, if you a small business starting up, you can too get the govt to help
you. Are you jealous because someone, who might happen to be an immigrant, gets
a successful business going? I would rather help someone out at the start,
rather than keep carrying them for the rest of their life. You know the old
moral tale about giving someone a fish, or teaching them to fish.

To mention Quebec at this point is very funny. You and others afraid of
immigration, language, etc is what the Parti Quebecois was bitching about in the
last referendum. Imagine the people of Quebec and the people of Alberta whining
about the same thing.
Does it really matter how many Asians, Orientals are in the world compared to
white people? What kind of a question is that? Your pointy hat is very
becoming, go sit in the corner with the other dunces.

Think about what the population was back then. The population of Canada
increased 34% due to the massive immigration during this time. (1901-1911)
Every immigrant that I have met in the past years, who have children, learn the
English language. The initial immigrant, usually has a longer time learning,
but their children do know the English language and usually the language of
their ethnic parents. Tell me Irina, did your parents know English when they
came here, did you learn English, how much Polish do your children speak?
Here is a good education link about immigration-

You don't REALLY want to know that answer!!! <vbg> Stick them on a plane

Plane takes off. Customs officials refuse person entry. TOO LATE..plane

allow people off plane at Canadian airports, until PRE-cleared while still
on the plane. Exceptions would be granted to airlines who PRECLEARED

Bullshit. The serbs under Slob MIlosevic brought the bombing onto
themselves. Blame them. We are NOT responsible for the repercussions of
Serbian terrorism. Stop your bloody wussy liberal uneducated politically

It's more like you see your neighbour beating the shit out of his wife
so you trash their house. The perpetrator and the victim no longer
a suitable home to live in.

Thanks, Nevins !
It's good to talk to a .... a.... well, whatever it is that you are.
Say, we're having a get-together next Sunday. We're going to have a
little outdoor Church service, followed by a BBQ.

I would guess that I would end up tar and feathered or possibly meet
with a Bar-T branding iron. Your form of tolerance seems to resentful
and spiteful. I'll pass but thanx anyways.
I invite you to a blissful country outing, and you call me resentful and
spiteful?
Nevins, when is the last time you had sex ? <With another person present, I

You seem to be lacking that little something that we call "humanity".
This NG is your ONLY form of uninhibited expression, isn't it. You might
do well to get out and meet some people.
There I go being resentful and spiteful again.

Jenn was living the way they were in fear better than what we were able to
offer them? Do you not believe that had canada not stepped in they all would
have eventually been killed? And now that things are better some of them are
returning to their homeland while others will continue to live here on my
tax money (and yours and all other "canadians")

Why do you say they are paranoid thoughts when you have no idea who actually
works in government jobs? Are you employed by the federal government? Have
you had any experience in the public sector? I have and I also see what is
going on around me while others don't give a damn as long as it doesn't
affect them. Not yet anyway but wait eventually someone will be running our
government and it may not be a "canadian" and how our laws and rights will
change then. As for believing what your links say personally, I don't
believe any of the governments stats. Look at what is happening with the
soldiers that had their medical records altered. Doesn't that show you
something?

As someone was tired of paying for your parents long long ago.

Did you not say once that your parents were refugees from WWII?
So. According to your view, do Canadians entitled to get CPP turn it down
(or ask that it be reduced), knowing that they did not pay enough to cover
its cost, or do they take the same kind of handouts you note that immigrants
get (disguised as CPP), and continue bitching about immigration?
I'd sure hate to find out you plan on having the younger generation support
YOU in your old age. It'd take all the wind out of the sails of your
"immigrants get too many handouts" yammering.

Are you a racist, Irina?
Just because you came here and lived off of the people of canada until you
could get on your feet which you hate does not mean that you can continue to
give incorrect information. My parents came over after the war. My mother
was sponsored over and had to work for this individual for 5 years before
she was free unlike you who probably got everything free for the first 2
years. And, I might add, she did not get free health care, free medical
anything, free food or anything else. Get it she had to work, work, work
unlike you.

No I never said that and no they weren't. Why is it that you are always
wrong and yet have so much to say?

Interesting conjecture. Yeah, I admit it, I was a leech when I
immigrated to Canada. But it was hard to find work other than
my paper route when I was twelve.
>No I never said that and no they weren't. Why is it that you are always
>wrong and yet have so much to say?
I was wrong because I don't remember exactly when you said you and
your parents arrived. But after the war was close. What year did they
arrive? Did they emigrate as a direct result of the war?
> The only true canadians are those that are born here. End of story.
This is obviously incorrect. Are there any Canadian laws that
distinguish between those who were born Canadian citizens, and those
who acquired Canadian citizenship? (hint: the answer is no.)
Of course, does this make the natives "truer canadians"?

This was evident when she figured she didn't get her job at the
university. All immigrants were to blame after that (even though
most ethnic chinese in Edmonton have been here since the
nineteenth century).
There are people who have paid into CPP for 25 years and are entitled to it
but what about elderly immigrants? Do they not get CPP? Who paid for it?

When are you going to learn to read. I did not say that I was against
immigration I said I was against giving them freebies ie, medical, welfare
etc. Years ago people didn't have this luxury and they made it so can those
who come here today. Get it?

Actually Bucky ole boy, I, unlike many of the younger generation, have
already put aside money for my retirement. I have saved and saved and
invested for years. What is really sad about this whole thing is that I am
going to be penalized for saving instead of spending it all and having one
hell of a good time like you when I am old enough to collect old age
pension. Hmmm, really now that I think about it what is the sense of saving
when the government will look after you better when you get old and have no
money. Gee, now what was I thinking about?

My father 1949 my mother 1950. I don't think it was so much the direct
result of the war as you think it might be. I think the reason that they
came to canada was to forget the horrors that they had lived and seen. My
father was a commando under Lord Mountbatten and served during many, many
campaigns. He saw lots and lots of death, children, women and his own
compatriots. He was terribly close to getting caught a number of times but
just managed to get away. When the brits came over they were given prime
farm land and mainly settled in Stettler. My father, who was not a brit by
birth, was given nothing.
My mother was taken from her family at 14 years of age by who she thinks
were the french (she speaks german, russian, slavik languages, etc. but no
french and she said it was a language she did not understand) and taken to a
munitions factory where she was forced to put black powder into bullets. She
became very, very sick and was sent to a hospital until she was better then
she was forced to become a launderess. Her so called "employer" said he
would put away the money that he owed her for her work into a safe place and
he would give it to her when she was able to return to school. She never saw
a penny of it. Probably sitting in some Swedish bank under her former
employers name.

I wouldn't exactly say that I am a racist but I do believe in people looking
out for themselves. Do you like it when you work 8 hours a day, 5-7 days a
week, have 2 weeks holiday while an immigrant can come over and live off the
money that you have slaved so hard to earn? Awww, but then you may have been
an immigrant once so I guess you would label me racist. Guess what I have
received free from the canadian government and I was born here. Nothing,
absolutely nothing financially (read handouts).
Do you think it is fair to the canadian people that the people from Kosovo
will be able to live in canada without having to work or paying for medical
for the next 2 years? Do you honestly think that they could not find a job
here in the next week or so? Where do you suppose all the money is coming
from seeing that we just went through mass job cuts, pay cuts etc. because
we were so much in debt?

Most ethnic Chinese who came here in the 19th century are long since dead,

What questions?

Yeah yeah, you know what I meant.
"Entitled" to FAR more than they ever paid. Welfare. Charity.
> but what about elderly immigrants? Do they not get CPP? Who paid for it?
I paid for it, and I do pay for it, just like I'm paying for EVERYONE who
collects it. I wish them well, immigrants and all, especially if it bothers
someone like you.
The sad thing is that by reading this post, most people would think I don't
want to support CPP, when in fact I have little objection to doing so.
However, you attempt to justify your anti-immigrant bent with spurious
arguments about "handouts" and so on. Your argument rings hollow, and I
raise the example of CPP to remind you that a whole generation of born
Canadians is effectively going to be depending on the good will of the
younger generation.

I applaud your foresight. Anything in Asia?

Penalized how, exactly? By not having access to CPP that won't be there
anyway? By having something in the bank so you don't have to work until
you're old and bitter? Make that "until you're old".

Like me? Detail my spending and saving habits so that you can justify your
remark, please. You apparently know something about them that I don't.

The government will look after no one when I'm that old, baby. Let's dispel
those rumors right now. Despite the fact that I've paid CPP since I was old
enough to hold a job, I have no chance of ever seeing any benefit from it.
It's fine, I guess, and one of the prices I am resigned to pay for living in
a socialist state.
> Gee, now what was I thinking about?
Something hateful, most likely. Think hard. You'll regain that train of
thought in no time.
: And I am tired of paying for someone else instead of for my own family.
Well, I'm tired of hearing the whines of the greedy.
