Really. The liberal-leftist Opposition parties in Canada have ganged up on the government to torpedo a plan to extend human rights protections to Aboriginals in Canada.
Story here.
Incredibly, the hard-left Opposition (the Liberals, the New Democrats and the separatist Bloc Quebecois) actually have the bizarre gall to denounce the Conservatives' effort to speed up the extension of human rights laws to "First Nations" communities which will guarantee that ordinary, vulnerable Aboriginals will have their human rights protected from being violated and taken away by their politicians and others... as a mere "political stunt".
How can the leftists call giving human rights to people who don't have them a "political stunt"?!
Is human rights a "political stunt"? (Oh, wait... leftists are always using the phrase, "human rights", to conduct political stunts, so I guess it's a political stunt as far as leftists are concerned, not something they really consider a real thing at all, so apparently leftists don't really believe in human rights, except as a powerful, verbal political weapon to get what they want).
They also claim that extending human rights protections to Aboriginals constitutes something they call "assimilation". Well, the left is always trying to assimilate all kinds of folks, forcing us to think and speak and do as they want us to. They impose their ideological dogmae and lies on our children in public schools against our wishes and increasingly without advising us.
"Assimilation" is a false argument. Look at Quebec. Her residents have full human rights protections, but they don't claim that they feel "assimilated". They have maintained their, what they call, "distinctiveness", ie. culture, heritage, language, etc. So there's no danger of "assimilation" happening, particularly to a group whom the left doesn't want to force to acquiesce to their dogmae and lies, unlike the way the left acts towards, say, Christians, Jews, Falun Gong, Scientologists, conservatives, etc.!
Look at the Muslims. They clearly haven't been "assimilated", either. Look at all kinds of communities. Show me "assimilation". I don't see any. If anything, "assimilation" is purely voluntary (unless you happen to be some kind of non-leftist/someone the left hates).
These groups outside the Aboriginal communities and groups have full human rights protections but they haven't been "assimilated".
So it's a false fear, this "assimilation" nonsense. It's just a leftwing tactic to intimidate the government from granting full human rights protections to a group whom the left doesn't want to have such equality!
I note that money also comes into the argument. Well, I also note that there's already nine billion dollars each year, every year, being spent to help Aboriginals. Suppose we double that? Will it make a difference? Can anyone prove/guarantee legally that it will? Prove now that nine billion dollars cannot be somehow used differently to actually help the vulnerable Aboriginal folks. I don't believe that it's not enough. I believe that something else is happening to the money. After all, there's not a lot of accountability with respect to exactly where the money goes.
So claiming they need more money before human rights can be legally, constitutionally guaranteed to Aboriginals... come on! How can one ethically, morally justify delaying/denying human rights protections to anyone... simply by claiming that one cannot afford it? So they're saying they cannot afford human rights?
Bullshit. Human rights comes first. Worry about money later. Human rights are more important than money, aren't they?
I'm amazed at how easy it is to shoot these excuses full of holes. So transparent are the attempts to excuse denying an identifiable group their human rights!
But that's the nature of the liberal-left!
If the leftists truly believed in human rights for Aboriginals, then why didn't they extend such legal protection to them when they were in power for so long (the Liberals had three consecutive majority governments and ruled like dictators and fascists, so they could've given this constitutional, legal protection to Aboriginals, but chose not to do so, plus the NDP and the BQ didn't make a big, loud call for it, either).
And why didn't the Liberals allocate more monies to housing and whatnot so that the arguments against human rights could be crushed and so that Aboriginals today could have equally-guaranteed human rights, which they clearly don't, thanks to the liberal-left? I guess the Liberals, then, are too cheap to let anyone else have human rights protection, then? Or is the money argument invalid? What's what? I just don't believe the claims of the left and the Aboriginal politicians and activists, for I don't see any regular Aboriginal folks being allowed to stand up and say, "Human rights for us NOW!" Why not ask the regular Aboriginal folks, rather than just the politicians and activists? After all, it's supposed to be about regular people who currently don't enjoy human rights, thanks to the liberal-left and the Aboriginal politicians and activists. (Prove me wrong; allow the government to extend human rights protections NOW!)
Please note that the article mentions that ordinary, regular Aboriginal folks are poised to launch complaints against their political leaders. Currently they cannot, as they don't yet enjoy the same human rights as do non-Aboriginals. And not a lot of coverage is being given to them; they're more or less being silenced, ignored. By the liberal-left, the Aboriginal politicians/activists and the MSM. At least the MSM makes a tiny little mention of their readiness to sue for their rights.
This is what the politicians fear: the courts affirming human rights for Aboriginals and enforcing them, forcing politicians to respect their human rights (and shell out money they might want for other stuff that doesn't do anything to help the regular, vulnerable folks, probably).
Are the leftists really racists? And what about Aboriginal politicians who don't want to have to be subject to the inconvenience of human rights laws when dealing with ordinary Aboriginal folks? This is a question that needs to be discussed. Do Aboriginal politicians not really believe in human rights, despite the fact that they've actually spoken of them?
I just believe that all people must have equal rights and be equally protected by their constitutions and laws from having them violated.
Clearly, people are, despite being born equal, not being treated equally by states. And certainly not by leftist politicians.
I find this deplorable, a monstrosity. Shame on the liberal-left for its refusal to believe in human rights and equality under the law for all, regardless of race, sex, age, ancestral heritage, religion, nationality, etc., etc...!
The liberal-left talks an impressive game, but its actions don't match their warm and fuzzy, falsely reassuring words.
Can't believe the liberal-left; can't trust them. Can't vote for them, either, unless you, like these mean-spirited, hateful folks, happen to also not believe that all are created equal and must therefore be treated equally, no matter our differences.
Ironically, I may get called "ignorant", "prejudiced", "hateful", "racist", etc., by the liberal-left, just because I demand human rights for Aboriginals.
Sure, wanting everyone to have equal human rights protections is ignorant, prejudiced, hateful, racist and so on. Suuuure. Is that it?
Well, I guess that's the true ideology of the liberal-left and of those who claim, hypocritically, to stand up for Aboriginals. You know who you are; I've encountered you before. And I've seen through your false arguments and libels.
Hi, "Balbulican". I know you're reading this. And I know you're going to post some bullcrap at StageLeft to expose me to more liberal-leftwing hatred and defamation. But that is what you folks do.
I doubt that the liberal-left and the wealthy "Aboriginal" politicians and activists want human rights to be guaranteed to regular Aboriginal folks, because I'm convinced that they don't care about them at all.
I expect them to keep trying to delay/prevent them from having equal human rights. Why? I don't know why; I can't read their minds. But that's what I think.
And the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees me the right to express my thoughts and beliefs.
And I have clearly expressed my thoughts and beliefs herein, that regular Aboriginal people need their equal human rights protections NOW, and that no excuses for delaying their human rights can be valid, for there is never a valid excuse for denying anyone their human rights, right?
