Three Cheers For The Red Ensign!
More ‘news’ from Canada today, with a report on how our glorious Red Ensign has got a pack of pinko creeps fretting.
Some agitprop outfit calling itself ‘Anti-Racist Canada’ is in a tizzy because of the growing popularity of the Red Ensign among extremist groups…

One of their creepy spokespersons reckons this is down to the fact that they view the flag that flies in Canada today as an abomination representing multiculturalism and diversity.

Well, if the cap fits…
I treat the current flag with respect because Canadians have fought and died beneath it.

But I could never love it, because I can never forget nor forgive that Canadians were no more consulted on the replacement of their flag than they were on the imposition of the grotesque ideology of multiculturalism.

Pearson

I was in Canada during the flag debate and the prime minister of the time, Lester Pearson, refused point-blank to put the fate of the Red Ensign to a referendum.
J. Waldo Monteith MP was our local representative during that furious parliamentary battle – I was just a youngster then but was familiar with the great man because our families were related by marriage.
Mr. Monteith looked like a serious politician – SO unlike Pretty Boy Turdo
===
He certainly spoke for the great majority of his Perth County ( Ontario) constituents with his blunt retort when Pearson arrogantly called on the Opposition to knuckle under and abandon the campaign to keep Canada’s beloved Red Ensign flying.
‘You must be nuts!’ .
My old Red Ensign T-shirt had gotten somewhat threadbare over the years, so for Canada’s 150th birthday celebration last week, I had a new one made at a little shop in Jakarta’s below Blok M Terminal.

Notice it’s for Dominion Day, which was what the national holiday was called until 1982, another change perpetrated purely out of cultural spite against Canada’s origins. .
Nobody looked askance as I mingled in friendly fashion with the other guests, though I had to explain it to my young Indonesian companions. Perhaps many of the younger Canadians too didn’t recognise the good old banner either.
But one guy in his thirties, a Vancouver fellow of Chinese ethnic origin who arrived with his family at the same time we did, at once smiled and approached to offer his congratulations.
Which anecdotally makes the point which rational people already understand.
The Red Ensign does not denote ‘racism’ – it simply stands for the Dominion of Canada, which was united in loyalty to the Crown and the democratic heritage, the independence, bestown by the British North America Act.
That heritage was irreparably damaged by Turdo Senior with his damnable Charter…

Canada was a happier, safer and all around better place when the Red Ensign flew above us.

I remember how angry all my family, and friends and were when they hauled down the ensign. I never heard my grandmother curse before that day.
They all hated Pierre Trudeau too, but not as much as I hate his son, after what has happened with the Khadr pay-off.
I hope Khadr gets cancer and i would say the same for Trudeau but Ithink AIDS is more his style.

The Ensign is a much more beautiful and interesting flag but it has been over fifty years since it was removed and l so whole generations have grown up who just don’t know anything about it.
It’s a pity, but there you are.
In the short term, people who love Canada should unite in rage against Trudeau’s award of that 10.5 million bounty to the terrorist Khadr.
I see you are on board so keep up the good work.

The Ontario red ensign and the Manitoba red ensign were adopted soon after the change of the Canadian flag as a reaction against it and as a way of continuing the red ensign at the provincial level.
