Born in Canada Requires No Obligations for the Inherent Rights of Citizenship! Perhaps it should?

For all of us who were born in Canada, it is taken for granted by our government and legal system, that at birth without any obligations or question one automatically is entitled to all rights of the country (Canada) where we were born.  

With today’s globalization and ease of air, sea or rail travel should we as a country perhaps start to at least question this automatic citizenship with its legal rights?

I put this topic forward because of today, especially with the ease of international air travel, individuals who themselves might already be Canadian citizens, not by birth, have planned to have a child or two or three here in Canada and then within a month or two of giving birth hightail it back to their original countries of birth so that their children will be homed and live outside of Canada for most of their young life’s?

How at birth can one recognize, accept, understand and later abide by the fact that Canada is founded upon the principles that recognize the supremacy of God and rule of law? 

Is this right? You the taxpayers and citizens should debate and decide this obvious flaw within our present born in Canada automatic citizenship handout policy!

Canada citizenship's for those immigrating or becoming a permanent resident of Canada do require a number of year’s of actual residency requirements and other obligations.

Should Canada perhaps not have at least a minimum of say 10 years of actual residence of a newborn before our government and the legal system automatically hands out citizenship to babies birthed in Canada?       

If we had had such a policy then we might not have been politically blindfolded and saddled with the Omar Khadr child warrior catastrophe?  

For all Canadians, these questions shall, unfortunately, remain until such time as citizens and our government no longer will have to question if born in Canada babies and child warriors honestly, transparently and legally full-filled such a commitment of a residency obligation for those inherent rights of a valued Canadian citizenship document.     

It’s our decision Canada!

Khadr’s Home in Fact and Reality was Not Canada.

Khadr born in Canada, Homed and Lived in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Born in 1986 and that same year moved to Pakistan to live.

After 10 years in Pakistan or elsewhere he returned to Canada in 1996, until his father was released thanks to media and political pressure.

Then Khadr, after homing in Pakistan for the first ten years of his life since birth, once again, after less than one year left Canada that same year of his arrival in 1986 with his father and others to live in Afghanistan at the home Osama bin Laden’s Taliban compound.

Thus for myself and perhaps millions of Canadians, in fact, and reality, his home was never truly Canada even though he was physically born in Canada.

Sept. 29, 2012: A U.S. military airplane brings Khadr back to Canada. He is transferred to the Millhaven Institution near Kingston, Ont.

Now within less than a day, the mainstream media is calling for the release of this convicted killer from our Canadian prisons!

The question remains, did he honestly and transparently actually full-fill his obligations if any and rights to Canadian citizenship when he never truly lived or was permanently homed in Canada, even though he was born here?

Your decision!

Are Toronto Gays So Gay that they Have Become HETEROPHOBIC Individuals?

Would it be fair to say, that Toronto’s mainstream media has become over zealous, in their never ending goal in attempting to force the ideals and beliefs of gays, lesbians and bisexual on all Torontonians, through their efforts to create a society that must conform to only one viewpoint?

As when individuals do not conform to this rigid view of acceptance the media backed by these special interest groups rush to a personal judgment and immediately label those Torontonians or others as being homophobic?

For example the actual Latin South American translation of “Tu ere Maricon” is You are Gay", nothing more, nothing less!

Torontonians or others who refer to gays as being gay are definitely NOT uttering a homophobic slur as the media and these special interest groups would like us all to believe based on their own bias and rush to judgment.

Such hasty critical analysis and personal judgments made against those Torontonians or other peoples from around the world is itself a form of bullying and creates a reverse method of discrimination.

Therefore why is it that the media seems to cast people as purely statistics or a deck of cards, when we are not?

All Torontonians as individuals have lives, relationships, families, reject or accept social trends and have that right and freedom to make choices without being bullied, coerced or intimidated by either side of an issue?  

Perhaps if gays seek do not wish to be publicly identified as gays then they themselves are HETERO PHOBIC individuals! 

Or if a heterosexual can be so easily labelled as a homophobic for his beliefs and ideals of wanting to keep marriage solely between a man and a woman, then obviously a gay or lesbian individual should be as easily labelled a heterophobe for their ideas and demands for changing marriage laws around the globe to legalize heterophobia within society as a special interest group?

P.S.   

NO HETERO PHOBIA

No Canadian Flag in Quebec Legislature then No Federal Equalization Payments for Quebec Separatist Government

In 1994 to 2003 while snubbing our country’s flag and its citizens from the rest of Canada, Quebec separatists, as now,  had their hands out to Canadians from other provinces and received over $27 BILLION dollars from Canadian taxpayers.

Now today in 2012 once again like in 1994 to 2003 this separatist PQ government has removed the Canadian flag from the provincial legislature and yet remains in line to annually receive some $7.391 BILLION dollars in further equalization payments while they are in office in addition to the  BILLIONS they received last time they were elected to office.

This separatists ritual of removing the Canadian flag from the provinces legislature is an insult to the history of our nation and especially the people of Canada who continually contribute BILLIONS of their hard earned tax dollars to the government of Quebec be it a separatist government or not.

The 4,126,654 MILLION Quebecers who did not cast a single vote for Pauline Marois and her separatist Quebecois party deserve real leadership and NOT childish tantrums involving political rituals.

Pauline Marious and her fellow elected separatist representatives of a minority group 1,394,765 Million Quebecers from a total 5,919775 eligible voters would be well advised not to pretend that they somehow think they can speak for the majority of Quebecers while attempting to mooch of the rest of Canada.

Time for Canadians across Canada to demand that our elected federal government representatives of Canadians from all parties get real backbones and advice the minority PQ separatists’ government in Quebec that while the Canadian flag remains absent from the Quebec legislature and its offices all equalization payments shall cease.

Moderate Muslims all have their Heads in the Sand along with those at the White House.

Is Susan Rice, the Obama’s administration appointed ambassador to the United Nations, a complete imbecile or is it that she and the administration are not capable of mentally grasping the fact that radical Muslims and their silent followers despise all non Muslims and further do not accept the freedoms of religion, speech, equal rights for women etc as guaranteed within the Constitution of the USA and other civilized democracies? 

Radical Muslim Imams and their Islamic Extremists Followers are showing their hatred for all non Muslims and all civilians of other religions around the World.

Such groups including Al-Qaeda continue to show the world population of non Muslims their intolerance and disrespect for all humans who hold or practice different faiths than that of their own warped interpretation of Islam.  

They continually declare an open ended war of religion against all infidels, non Muslims, until all infidels are forcefully converted to their interpretation of Islam or institutionalized through their totalitarian regimes by means of discrimination, murder or slavery.

They are using Muslims and the religion of Islam as a guise for their own political ideology while the other religions of the world standby watching in disbelief and fail to react with words until after the fact of each and well planned out attacks on non Muslim citizens from around the world. 

It seems that any moderate Muslims are only to be found within the Obama administration, as all the other so called MODERATE Muslims seem to assimilate the past behaviour of citizens within Germany and around the world during the second world war who saw nothing, heard nothing, or new nothing about the killings and inhumane treatment of various religious groups and persons during the totalitarian reign of the third Reich in Germany. 

While the US administration and its United Nations ambassador Susan Rice  have there respective heads in the sand, the new Libyan President Mohammed Magarief insists that the attacks were definitely planned by foreigners from Mali and Algeria who entered Libya a few months ago and had been planning criminal acts since their arrival in Libya.

Will the Obama administration ever wake up to the obvious fact that the people of Middle East must solve there own problems as the American taxpayers can no longer afford to send money to these Muslim Brotherhood governments that continue arising from the ashes of the American backed Arab spring uprisings around that region? 

 

                                                                                                             

The natural resources of Canada belong to all Canadians

With world oil and natural gas prices rising once again Canada urgently needs to promote oil self-sufficiency for Canada and maintain the oil supply from the oil sands first for Canadians.

As such we must promote Canadian ownership of the energy industry by investments from all provinces and the federal government into the exploration for oil in Canada especially the oil sands.

In 1975 when Atlantic Richfield pulled out from the then pioneering oil sands consortium had it had not been for the province of Ontario’s investment of 5% along with Alberta’s 10% and the federal governments 15% which ensured future oil sands developments would continue, today there would be no  potential investors in Canada’s oil sands. 

Working together the federal government along with all provinces and territories must, promote cost effective alternative energy sources by means of a revised Canadian National Energy Program and Board comprised of the federal government and all provinces and territories. 

The natural resources of Canada belong to all Canadians from coast to coasts and NOT solely any one province or territory where our natural resources presently exist or are subsequently discovered.

Fatherless Families, Lack of Education, Dropping Out of School are the Individual's Greatest Causes of Poverty that Leads to Guns, Gangs and Violence.

From the outset after acts of violence involving guns, knives, drugs and gangs the media, societies, usually special
 interest groups and those involved, including the perpetrators, ALL attempt first to lay the blame on the police officers and society as a whole BUT  never on those who directly caused the rioting, looting or shootings, beatings, rapes or drug deals? It seems everyone is reluctant to lay out the facts about crime by race, colour or ethnic background. 

What are the reasons for this?  One obvious reason is the fact that "According to 72.2 % of the U.S. population, fatherlessness is the most significant family or social problem facing America.

Along with facts that academia's new norm of Political correctness!

Social justice for all and a revised new world order introduced by bureaucrats so politicians and society, in general, would no longer have to tell it like it is or acknowledge the facts that some humans are failures and lack ambition in life. You see special interest groups along with unelected bureaucrats and technocrats' agenda for a never-ending push for their socialistic collectivization policy that winning is not important and failure is not permitted to exist any longer? This philosophy is total BS.

Let’s keep those thoughts for another day as we know and have known for the past 75 years that individuals who fail to obtain a high school degree are more than twice as likely to fall into poverty along with the fact that a majority of these kids today have no fathers in their daily lives.

We also have the stats confirming that for the past 30 years or more poverty rates throughout North America are highest amongst Blacks, be they African American or African Canadian, aboriginals, Hispanics and Immigrants having English as a Second Language and Students in rural communities.    

For example, in Canada alone, over 40,000 students consisting of mainly Blacks, Aboriginals and (ESL) students continue to drop out of high school annually. Yet our career politicians with their respective political parties and their supportive self-serving special interest groups have to keep asking themselves what are the immensely complex issues that are causing actions of the criminal behaviour of shooing, gangs, violence and drugs?

At least for the last century, the very first cause of poverty, prosperity and inequality relates back to the individuals' lack of basic education, parental guidance and family supervision.

Our children do not learn when we continue down the path of lowering educational standards so no one fails as a feel-good political policy and they shall continue to drop out of school and the cycle of more problems continue as they will not be in a position to be gainfully employable due to their lack of education. 

And thus the disparity of incomes in society between dropouts and professionals or those with a basic educational foundation of a high school diploma or trade shall remain very high, which goes to show the importance of education in eradicating poverty.

Throughout North America, only 41% of Black men graduate from high school and 69% of black children cannot read at grade level in the 4Th grade, compared with 29% among white children.

85% of the government’s welfare spending and 80% of inmates in federal jails,  the majority of them being inner-city black kids, aboriginals, immigrants, (ESL) students along with students in rural communities is spent on these groups within society.

Yet we shy away from these facts because of fears that someone might label us as racists, bigoted for acknowledging the truth! 

Well so be it, because the unprecedented amount of tax dollars being spent on social programs for social justice over the past fifty years has NOT solved an individual’s prosperity, inequality or poverty. 

Because the facts keep telling us that what has always been needed was for one to take full responsibility for one’s own life by first getting elementary and secondary education that has been free to all groups within society.

By dropping out of school both the parents and kids obviously do not understand or accept the fact that to achieve as high social status as possible and to avoid self-inflicted shame and humiliation they must at least finish high school and get a diploma.  

Hopefully today within society more and more people are taking notice of the fact that simply food provision, health care programs and monetary welfare handouts in no way are helping in the eradication of poverty.

Just the opposite as it prolongs one's existence and reliance on such handouts.  

With close to 50,000 kids in Canada annually dropping out of school coupled with the existing 3,500,000 MILLION plus individuals between the ages of 18 to 35 who lack a high school education and are the leading burden on Canada’s welfare, health care, and prison systems you think these kids, society and the career politicians with their respective political parties would get the picture.

Education itself is not a complicated issue and as a society, we do not need any new models that will improve the educational outcomes for individual students. 

What is urgently needed is a far greater personal effort and commitment by black students themselves and their parents or parent to finish high school and get their individual diplomas or trade as their personal investment within society. 

We must demand that our youth be required to remain in school classrooms, trades school or apprenticeship programs that continually demand excellence in reading, writing, math and sciences until the age of 21 if they have not graduated.   

Society cannot do it for them! They must want to get an education for themselves as no amount of money will ever change that simple fact.

PS. 

“Without a high school education or trade, the individual person will not have the basic and necessary essential tools required throughout life for successfully pursuing a logical deliberate purpose in achieving as high a social status as possible and to avoid self-inflicted shame and humiliation as a human being,” Peter Clarke.
