Immigration

Right now, as the federal government tries to outdo itself in idiocy, there are far too many Catholics, of immigrant origin, hollering for strict controls of the border.

Bosh. I say. Modernist silliness at best, anti-Catholic bigotry embraced by folks who should know better at worst.

Now, I never denied that I am a bigot, and it is based on this bigotry that I demand a heavily fortified border surrounding Canada (with gates to allow raiding parties in to help themselves to natural resources, which, if left to the Canadians, will just end up as part of some experiment in allowing the Indians to worship trees and rocks and all of the hockum that should have been exorcised out years ago). However it would be absurd to claim that my desire for a fortified border with Canada is a matter of "just wanting to see laws enforced." It is about a deep seated Anglophobia and a mistrust of anyone who thinks that Moosehead should count as beer, eh? Oot with you then.

Please note that I exempt Oscar Peterson and Diana Krall from my anti-Canadian vitriol. There are probably others, but I can't think of them now. Certainly not Margaret Atwood. Yuck.

Get rid of the "illegal" immigrants and you know what will happen? Our economy will crumble. Do you like to eat? Live in buildings? Not have to take out the garbage?

The problem is that we are working with unworkable notions of citizenship. What we need is a policy of exile in which any Mohammedan, regardless of ethnicity, place of birth, family name, income, etc., is immediately deported to Arabia (or Mormons to Utah, or Puritans to Massachussetts, I could get behind any of those initiatives). This will do more for the security of the West than keeping out the hard-working Catholics who are willing to pick strawberries for pennies, to live ten to a shack, sacrificing to save money for their families.
