Yes, I agree that their refusal to ban Hezbollah and the Tamil Tigers was wrong, but they've been banned now. Posting this kind of stuff just perpetuates the old "Canada is a haven for terrorists" and so on.
Actually it is true. Canada is in fact a haven for terrorists. How many individuals have our immigration department listed as having been part of a terrorist organisation yet granted permission to stay for 'humanitarian' purposes? How many organisations in Canada have been known to funnel funds back home to their respective terrorist organisations?
The solution is simple. Ban all Muslim groups outright and deport immediately any such individual who espouses extremist views of Islam. Security of the state takes precedence over the 'rights' of such individuals.
Were it up to me I would ban Islam outright under the principles of fascism but then again this country is too weak and liberal to accept such ideals.
By the way, I love that sig of yours where you are sarcastic about Canada living under the security umbrella of US military might. There is no reason to be sarcastic about it. It is the truth. The USA has guarded our sovereignty far more than we Canadians have. It is US warships that travelled through our waters searching out Soviet submarines and surface vessels. It is US warships that caught the odd Soviet spy trawler disguised as a fishing trawler.
I would suggest you not mock the very military that has helped keep Canada a free nation. We as a nation spent nowhere near what was required to defend our own borders. Due to this, the USA took it upon themselves to do so. True they did not do it because they loved Canada so much. They did it as a means of protecting their own interests. Canada was the USA's buffer with the Soviet Union. Soviet Backfire and Bear bombers used to enter Canadian airspace constantly. They were never escorted out of our airbases by Canadian warplanes. We do not have any that far north. Those Soviet bombers were escorted out of our airspace by American F-15 Eagles and F-16 Fighting Falcons based in Alaska. Keep this in mind the next time you seek to mock the Americans and their 'shield' over Canada.
