Canadian Free Speech Newsletter: Gay Pride In; European Heritage Week Out!

Bludgeoned by the Ontario Human Rights Commission's $10,000 fine of Mayor Dianne Haskett for not proclaiming Gay Pride Week, the London, Ontario city council quickly reversed themselves. Gay Pride is in. Along came a group asking the city council to declare October European Heritage Week. The council obliged. "The white supremacist National Party has effectively duped municipal governments across Canada into declaring a special week to their cause. It has also duped the Queen into thinking the group was supporting a worthy cause: the celebrations of Europeans in Canada.

It had to quickly scramble to undo the proclamation when religious groups alerted council officials to the organizers' racist connections.

'The whole point is to get the imprimatur of council, 'said Mark Weintraub of the Canadian Jewish Congress, which is most often the whistle-blower alerting municipalities about the group's background. 'They are attempting to fain legitimacy by these means.'" (Ottawa Citizen, October 15, 1998)

The obscure Nationalist Party may or may not have "racist" connections. Surely, the point is that European Heritage Week celebrates the vital contributions of Canada's founders, not the Nationalist Party. If a group with "racist" connections is reprehensible, how much more so a celebration of a lifestyle that revels in sexual practices that have led to disease and death and which are repugnant to traditional Christians, Moslems, and Jews. A sign of the times! The Canadian Jewish Congress has tailed the Nationalist Party's requesst for declaration of European Heritage Week from Canadian city to city putting the kaibosh on it wherever possible.
