Idk how many Canadians we have on this forum, or people who are interested in Canadian politics, but I found this letter to the editor that was sent to a newspaper from here. The story was supposedly found to be the truth, otherwise the newspaper would never have published it.
Tell me what you guys think. Is this potentially dangerous for Canadians?
(I know the letter says "we Quebecois", I'm not in Quebec myself the letter was just published there.)
Stephen Harper and his friends
Members of Parliament for the Conservative Party of Canada (CPC), including Stephen Harper himself, the President of The Treasury Board Vic Toews, the Minister of International Trade Stockwell Day, MP Gary Breitkreuz and MP David Sweet, past president of the Promise Keepers Canada, have links to U.S. Christian right-wing organizations - these are fundamentalists who want government rule based on religion (a theocracy which is a dictatorshp). The Christian Right is growing in power and influence in Canada especally since the CPC came to power.
Focus on the Family Canada is a subsidiary of its U.S. counterpart and provided campaign support to Harper's Conservative Party. The Promise Keepers Canada, influenced by its counterpart in the U.S., encouraged its members to provide grass roots support and financial assistance to the CPC. Isn't that the same as having a U.S. Christian Right Wing organization influencing who gets elected in Canada? Does that mean that Harper and his men want Canada to be controlled by sthe U.S. Christian yahoos? It certainly looks that way.
The Promise Keepers have ties with the Watchmen for the Nations. That's an interesting and frightening assembly of Christian Right oppressors, monitoring those deemed by their hierarchy of being a threat to their God agenda. It is an army ready and willing to fight for "God" when the leadership upon them to do so.
We Quebecois, remember the Maurice Duplessis era and the strong hold the Church had on the provincial government who chose to ignore the rule of law and illegally punished those who went against the Duplessis government agenda (see Roncarelli v Duplessis). And a further note, Duplessis founded the Union National which led to the rise of separatism in Quebec, a revolutionary group bent on a dictatorship, also using religion as a promotional tool for their cause.
Catholics and the Jews had better take note for they are being used to further the non-mainstream Christian Right agenda, but they will not share in the religious rule of any government the Christian Right establishes. Catholics and the Jews had better learn what history has to say about dictators.
For those who have a reverence for the Bible, St. Mathew quotes Jesus as having said, 'Render unto Caesar, therefore, what is Caesar's and to God the things that are God's'. Interpretation: do not mix religion with politics.
Canadians, let us protect our liberty!
