The decline of loyalty

In a new “diversity study” released today by the Centre for Multicultural Worship, 58% of Canadians believe that a strong immigrant attachment to country of origin hurts loyalty to Her Majesty’s Most Loyal Dominion. The good news is that a majority still demand and believe that loyalty to country matters. The bad news is that only 58% now believe this. That this number is not even remotely close to the 95% one would expect, is clear evidence the multicultural mob has made serious inroads.

Even more disturbing is the other number. In the very same breath, an even bigger majority (68%) believe that “a multicultural society guards against extremism”. What are we all smoking up here, anyways? When in our collective history did we ever exhibit or foster a level of extremism that needed to be guarded against? How has our free society ever been a threat to immigrants who freely chose to come here, and who did so because they were escaping the very extremism that was prevalent elsewhere? Presumably if we were a threat to immigrants, they would have never come. Many came to our shores because, like our American and Commonwealth partners, we were the beacon of freedom and prosperity they eagerly sought, because we fought against tyranny and liberated populations from the extremism that were the hallmark of other societies.

What doesn’t guard against extremism is multiculturalism, the kind of suicidal self-immolation that threatens to destroy our heritage and birthright in the name of national tolerance. Policies that promote a lack of integration into the larger society create the very conditions that extremist cultures and religious elements need to exist and thrive. Lack of cohesion creates divided loyalties. Divided loyalties in turn destroy pride of belonging, a sense of community and common purpose. Divided loyalties often mean divided values. Divided loyalties create political and multicultural correct paralysis that will ultimately turn the country into a fragmented, international free zone. It is a sarcoma that threatens to submerge us all.
