A Moral Dilemma for Conservative Voters

Over the last five years the Conservative Party of Canada’s government under the leadership of Prime Minister Stephen Harper has proven be the only party that could possibly have governed as successfully as they have, particularly given their minority status in parliament. It has proven to be fiscally responsible in a time of world-wide financial crisis. The opposition parties clearly showed that they would have imitated Obama’s USA policies had they been in office and spent billions more than necessary.

Prime Minister Harper has also calmly handled the many false charges of arrogance, secretiveness and his supposed contempt of parliament. The opposition may have persuaded some citizens that PM Harper is the devil incarnate but I don’t think the public was fooled. The transparent falsehood of Mr. Ignatieff’s last statement following the dissolution of parliament that a “guilty verdict” had been rendered on PM Harper’s supposed contempt of parliament was clearly intended to divert the public’s attention away from his decision to force an election nobody wanted. Prime Minister Harper also cleverly handled the opposition’s false and one-sided many months of trying to criminalize the Canadian government and our brave fighting soldiers over the Afghan detainee problem. Their almost traitorous activity may have had dire consequences for the Afghan detainees, our combat troops and those working to monitor the Afghan prison system had it not been for Mr. Harper and his Minister’s efforts to counter the damage. Mr. Harper also cleverly outwitted the opposition’s attempts to form a coalition government and their disgraceful try do so by making a deal with the Bloc Quebecois, the self-declared enemy of English speaking Canada. I have to chuckle when I think of the opposition and mass media view that PM Harper is secretive and a bad communicator. The PM was very wise in carefully controlling the discussion of proposed policies. The opposition and media had been accustomed to demanding to “know” the policies and plans of any party at every stage prior to their final draft. The PM stopped the childish “Gottcha!” scrums where off-the-cuff or overheard misstatements could easily be made during the media ruckus. Such miscues may make great headlines but are always blown out of all proportion. In my humble opinion, Stephen Harper is probably the best communicator for clarity and openness we have ever had as a Prime Minister of Canada.

The Moral Dilemma

It would be easy to write pages on the misdemeanors and outright vindictive distortions of the opposition and the leftist mass media’s disgraceful behaviour. It would also be easy to laud many other aspects of PM Harper and the CPC’s achievements but too many of our CPC members and supporters, including this writer are very disturbed by a number of upsetting policy changes made by PM Harper and the Party. I therefore cut to the chase and try to explain what I believe is a serious moral dilemma faced by many of us when trying to decide whether or not to contribute, work for, or even vote for the CPC. That moral dilemma arises from several major policy shifts that are now strongly endorsed by PM Harper and the Canadian Conservative Party (our Party). Our fierce belief is that these policies, if continued, will lead to the total collapse of the Party and eventually Canada, if not a posssible civil war. To be blunt these changes are:

1. The Party’s deliberate support of the Liberal and Quebecois inspired obliteration of our former British liberties (freedoms) now so clearly pushed by PM Harper.
2. The Party’s forced promotion of the French language to replace the English language as the first language of Canada.
3. The continued funding and repetitive appeasement of the “Nation of Quebec.”.
4. The PM’s repetitive glorifying and distortion of the history of the French settlement of this country and its importance to Canadians. This revisionist tale is designed to make new Canadians believe we are a predominately French country and therefoe must all speak French and dismiss all that English-speaking heritage Canadians know sustained our once-treasured liberties. It is an insult to all English-speaking Canadians and the truth.
5. The Party’s deliberate pushing of the policy of forced Official Bilingualism. Once again we push a Liberal inspired law that is now creating two classes of Canadians:
   1. a “Superior Class” of just 17 % of the population (mostly Francophones) who happen to be bilingual and who are the only people considered worthy to participate in the civil service, the leadership of the military, Crown corporations, the RCMP.etc. and
   2. an “Inferior Class” of Canadians (83% of our population) deemed totally unworthy of participating in running the affairs of their own county.
6. The constant failure of the CPC to rid our country of our infamous kangaroo courts of the euphemistically named “Human Rights” establishment.

Note that none of the mass media or any political party is apparently intelligent enough or honest enough or courageous enough to put these liberty-wrecking laws and policies front and center during any election, provincial or national.

Are we Canadians being lied to by our political leaders and internal enemies?

Read the following quotes and you decide: “Thus Trudeau put his language law beyond the reach of parliament by incorporating it in a Charter of Rights and Freedoms in the French mode of legislated rights and entitlements as the Supreme Law of Canada. Thus has the English Canadian majority been brought to a condition wherein its treasured thousand-year heritage of inherent freedoms and responsibility under laws that moved with the times has been changed 180 degrees without its consent or subsequent approval. It was done by political schemers from the regional minority to cement that minority’s power over the whole country.” Quote by: Kenneth McDonald author; The Monstrous Trick “Everything we undertake and everything we are doing to make Canada a French state is part of the venture I have shared with a number of people.” Quote by: Serge Joyal, Minister of State for Canada 1982.” “It is the French dimension of our national personality that constitutes the soul of Canada.” Former Prime Minister, Brian Mulroney (interview with Le Figaro, 1989).

What to do?

Our moral dilemma as Conservatives is that we must go against every grain in our body and soul to vote for a Party and government that is working to supplant our English language, rewrite our history and change Canada into a Quebecois and French language dominated country. The Quebecois being the very people who have told us in a thousand ways they are the bitter enemies of our British-derived laws and liberties and our English language. The only alternative we now have is to abstain from voting at all and that is an immoral choice in regard to our democratic duty to vote. Personally, I will vote for the CPC because there is no other choice given the opposition’s destructive history of breaching every fundamental law and principle that this country ever enjoyed beginning with the Pearson/Trudeau regime. God only knows what new abominations the Liberals and NDP would come up with if elected. Our only hope is that should Prime Minister Harper obtain a majority he will rethink his present destructive pro-French Quebecois policies before he totally loses his basic CPC voter support. If PM Harper and the CPC fail to meet our expectations then we will have to recreate a new cross-Canada “Canadian Reform Party;” This time it should be much easier given the much larger Conservative base we will have to draw from. If we then fail, it will mean the end of Canada as a nation and perhaps the end of Canada entirely. Yet, there is hope because Mr. Harper did not always believe in forced French everything. Perhaps he really has a so called “hidden agenda” but in our favour. Here is where Mr. Harper originally stood before we chose him as our Prime Minister: “After all, enforced national bilingualism in this country isn’t mere policy. It has attained the status of a religion. It’s a dogma which one is supposed to accept without question.” Quote: Stephen Harper “As a religion, bilingualism is the god that failed. It has led to no fairness, produced no unity, and cost Canadian taxpayers untold millions.” Quote: Stephen Harper Let us vote and make sure the Prime Minister and the CPC does reform itself.
