Canadians put on the back burner

Re: Hate is not going to spread in Niagara, Oct. 2

Canada has always been a country which opened its doors for immigrants.

After the Second World War immigrants came here with nothing. There was no social assistance and life was tough. With hard work and adapting to their new country many immigrants built good lives for their families.

They built Canada into a prosperous nation based on Christian principles. It was ruled by law and order.

Now Prime Minister Justin Trudeau with his left-wing agenda is throwing everything out of the window, falsely calling it a human rights issue. His open border policy is of great concern for safety and security.

Illegals among which there are criminal elements are abusing and overwhelmi­ng our health services, our social services, our affordable housing services, etc. Many Canadian pensioners and low-income citizens, have been put on the back burner. That is shameful.

Trudeau is favouring Islam above all other religions and with Motion-103 he wants to shut down free speech. Criticizin­g is not hate speech. Left-wing organizati­ons aggressive­ly attack and shut down anyone who has a different opinion, as we saw in Niagara Falls. Anyone who doesn’t agree with them is a racist and a discrimina­tor, while they themselves are the worst. The left is against democracy and freedoms and the media is part of them.
