What is the meaning of Christmas? Webster's New World Dictionary
Third Edition, defines Christmas as: [Christ & Mass] 1. A holiday
on December 25, celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.
For the 22 million Christians in Canada, this is a very sacred
and glorious time of the year. It has been such since the found-
ing of Canada in 1867. Immigrants need to know this. Canada is a
Christian country.
For the nine per cent pagans in Canada, the mention of Jesus Christ
sends them into paroxysms of rage, as it reminds them every December
25, that their attempts to abolish Christianity in Canada have been
a complete failure.
Have a Happy and Blessed Christmas all you devout Christians. Canad-
ians of other religious beliefs are also welcome to take part in the
Christian festival.
Pagans can withdraw into their rhinoceros skins and curse the day
Jesus Christ was born.
