Tfw your country’s culture and identity was snuffed out in its infancy before it even had a chance to develop

Fuck all you Brampton niggers

I was reading about this Elliot trudeau guy and I misread his birth and service date. He was the prime minister in the 1960's so like 70 years ago.

>Uniformity is neither desirable nor possible in a country the size of Canada. We should not even be able to agree upon the kind of Canadian to choose as a model, let alone persuade most people to emulate it. There are few policies potentially more disastrous for Canada than to tell all Canadians that they must be alike. There is no such thing as a model or ideal Canadian. What could be more absurd than the concept of an “all-Canadian” boy or girl? A society which emphasizes uniformity is one which creates intolerance and hate. A society which eulogizes the average citizen is one which breeds mediocrity. What the world should be seeking, and what in Canada we must continue to cherish, are not concepts of uniformity but human values: compassion, love, and understanding

>anglo cultural influence...was reduced

Anglo-Canadians are the large majority of Canadians and have been since before Confederation. It is a statement of fact that Canada's history and culture is weakened without our shared connections with Great Britain and the rest of the Commonwealth, and therefore that attempts to diminish this connection are malicious and anti-Canadian.

>if that is a legitimate threat to our culture then our culture and identity was hilariously fragile in the first place

That's a fallacious argument. Any national culture would be injured by orchestrated attempts to constrain it, especially through means that the people of that culture would not immediately identify as a threat. The abolition of Dominion Day is only one example among many. Axing the Red Ensign is another, and neither of those are the worst culprit, just big, obvious attacks.

Canadian is a term invented by the French.

At least some people got to keep their culture...

>Anglo-Canadians are the large majority of Canadians and have been since before Confederation.
possibly pre-confederation, but not now, no
even among the white population (76% or something like that), we have over 7 million french canadians, 600k russian diaspora, 1 million polish diaspora, 1.3 million ukrainian diaspora, 300k hungarian diaspora, which equals just under a third of our entire country's population, nevermind germans, scandis, balts, italians, greeks, etc

you wish to save our own Canadian culture and identity as its own thing, and yet you seem to really want to import culture to just make the identity of Canada an extension of british culture
this just sounds like a britboo

>British Colony
>British Dominion
>Commonwealth Nation

do you want a canada to have its own culture and identity or a british culture and identity? you can only pick one m8

Those statistics are from Stats Canada, which allows multiple ethnic origins in its surveys. German Canadians and English Canadians are not mutually exclusive, just like Irish Canadians and French Canadians are not mutually exclusive. Someone living in Quebec City who was raised speaking French and had a mother with half-Irish ancestry and a father on his Dad's side from la baie des Chaleurs might well list his ancestry as Canadien and also Irish and also Acadian. It's the same for Anglo-Canadians. I consider myself an Anglo-Canadian and have English and Irish ancestry (and an Irish surname), but I'm also one of those 1.35 million Ukrainians in Canada.

I say it again: Anglo-Canadians are the large majority of Canadians.

British influenced culture is not the same as British culture moron

This is nonsense. Quebecois culture is not "an extension of French culture", and yet I am sure a Quebecois would consider it an attack on their culture for the French language to be diminished, the fleur-de-lis to be removed from the flag or for history textbooks to ignore the feats of Samuel Champlain.

It’s alright frens, we may live in a zombie-nation that lacks any sort of meaningful sovereignty (both de facto and de jure ironically enough), but we’ll always have Trailer Park Boys, Golden-Era Canadian television, Rush, undeniably beautiful landscapes, and the best weed in the world.

When you feel sad just look on the bright side, we’re all in this together :)

>in the interest of placating the french
God anglos are fucking retarded

The funny thing is that he didn't placate the French at all

I know that was my point. The most rage inducing thing about it is that his push towards multiculturalism was made specifically to weaken french-canadian influence yet retarded anglos today have brainwashed themselves to think that we’re the ones who asked for it. Québec is probably the only place in Canada where it’s controversial to say that you support multiculturalism because we have never wanted it

French Canada is a hell of a drug

Canadian culture is literally just:
Teehee im not american eh

You speak the truth. He set us on the path towards eventual Americanization

That's very rude.

It wasn't like that before Nigel

>trusting a guy called Pierre to run an Anglo country

Didn't he also shit up the economy for decades?

>Everything he could to damage Canada's historical and cultural connection to the Commonwealth, in the interest of placating the French.
