Diplomatic officials said they’re flooded with applications from well-heeled Saudi men with one or more wives and have asked Ottawa for guidelines on whether the spouses should be given visas for Canada.

About Kate
Why this blog?
Until this moment
I have been forced
to listen while media
and politicians alike
have told me
"what Canadians think".
In all that time they
never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."

Accepting 30,000 of these people into Canada would be a total disaster. They are hard core Islamists.
I don't want to believe that our government would be this stupid, under Harper and Kenney, and yet history has proven otherwise time and again.
I wonder if they sense that they have worn out their welcome in Britain, and are looking for a new country to burden with their ideology.
I think it's fantastic as long as they're all moved into left wing metro neighborhoods.
I've come into contact with a good number of trainees from middle east countries. The best, by far, are the Iranians. Polite, grateful to be here, and not religiously fanatic for the most part.
The worst are the Saudis - rude, demanding, and they want their 5 prayers a day no matter where they are.
Others - Qatari, Kuwaiti, other UAE, are somewhere in between.
But 30,000 a year is a huge number. Add in their families.... they will have impact. And none of it will be to the benefit of the Canada we currently value.
Come on. Really? It doesn't matter how much these people bring to the coffers, they are not worth it. Why are we even entertaining immigration of these sorts. They will not mix, they don't want to.
Oh no worry, the hard-core feminists in Canada will shout the loudest that this is a good thing and that "judging" them is wrong.
They'll all be here within 2 years and receiving free life-long government assistance immediately upon arrival.
Let them all in. Unless there is solid evidence of security threat. Actually wait no let them in especially if they fund terrorism. A bird in the hand is safest.
Encourage them to buy homes in Caledonia.
I'm for it if they all settle in Ontario, and then McGuinty's inadequate electric grid goes down again, and again, in January and February.
Yeah, I've heard Saudis are good with winter.
No! No more terrorist funders or supporters. We have more than enough here already.
Seems to be an indication the elite of Saudia Arabia recognize the Arab Spring is coming their way.
I also wonder if the potential change for one of the five TransCanada Pipelines presently used for natural gas being changed to Alberta oil coming to Eastern Canada is an incentive for the Saudi "bug out".
The National Post has a report which says this one pipeline will be able to carry one million Barrels a day, far exceeding the 700,000 barrels being inported from the Middle East.
Let some other nation fund the terrorists by purchasing the Middle East oil. If we have to have a Muslim polygamy sect in the East to match the polygamists in Bountiful B.C. so what! Cheers:
Does this mean we are somehow obligated to accept their applications?
Stamp them REFUSED and move on to the next group of undesirables.
I saw a Saudi teenager making fun of an oriental in a high school hall one day, and I wonder what life will be like for the non-whites, let alone those of us with white skin.
gellen >
Pacific Islanders and South Asians are the domestic slaves of the Saudis, they don't see it as an issue to berate and mock them at will.
Of course neither does the Liberal left, providing its little brown people bullying others.
Let's do the math. $2.3-billion comes in and $2.8-billion dollars goes out. So if we stand by our laws and values and the Saudis don't like it we're ahead by $0.5-billion.
1 is too many.
Let's look on the bright side, think of the boom in Canada's halal businesses
We don't have to let them in.
LAS, who is the biggest sponsor of terrorism today? Oh yeah! The Saudis!
Knight 99:
I've never forgotten that scene and the arrogant bas!ard, nor the smaller Oriental sitting on the floor with his back against the wall looking as if he couldn't wait for him to pass by.
Osumashi Kinyobe >
"LAS, who is the biggest sponsor of terrorism today? Oh yeah!"
Oh yeah! People like LAS!
The Saudi state to be accurate. We're not letting the Saudi state in, we're letting in people trying to get away from that state.
LAS, how many of the September 11th hijackers were Saudis? Fifteen. What religion do they espouse at the expense and denial of others? Islam. Who allows slavery, polygamy and Jew and black hatred? Saudis. What is the purpose of this thread? The consequences of letting Saudi polygamists.
We have enough problems. Do we really need to let these people in? Are there no Europeans or Asians with skills and zero hang-ups?
If even the Iranians find a problem with them, we should probably do so, too.
Knight99 "Of course neither does the Liberal left, providing its little brown people bullying others."
The progressives don't care who the servants are as long as there's someone to pour the water at their social science conferences. Remember, who invented the phrase "white trash"? Rich liberals.
LAS >
“....we're letting in people trying to get away from that state.”
LOL. Yes all those “well healed” oil rich Saudis with 4 wives are just running away from the evil state and their domestic slaves to live a humble life in Canada.
You need to get out of moms basement and see the world a little LAS, you and your ilk are the #1 terrorist threat to the western world.
The only people trying to get out of the Kingdom of Saud are the slaves from India, Bangladesh, and SEA who were lured there with the promise of real work and easy visa’s. Your either totally daft, or a terrorist sympathiser to sell it otherwise.
You see, there is this matter of cold hard cash.
Politicians could not care less as long as the money is coming in.
Canadians lose, the islamists and the politicians win.
There are no ethics involved, strictly business.
End of story.
Lev
bang, you got it
it ain't leftist pols, it ain't rightist pols, it's "politicians"
Collectivism and hysterical scaremongering: not just for the left!
so,
Islam is Ishmael's jealousy acted out. The promise made to Abraham passed onto Isaac, not Ishmael. Ishamel was the son of a slave and never inherited the covenant promise. Islam misrepresents and therefore dishonours Jesus. Becuase of Jesus, all people can be a part of the true covenant, but only through Him. Jew and Gentile need have no hostility because of Christ. Likewise, no one needs a the false-covenant of Islam, which is based upon a lie.
You're all raaaacist!
I say we grant visas to as many of these women who come forward as they want... on the presentation of a valid Saudi driver's licence, with photo.
I say we grant visas to as many of these women who come forward as they want... on the presentation of a valid Saudi driver's licence, with photo.
And the photo should not be of a burkha!Oh wait.Women can drive in Saudi?
30,000?
We will have to build a northern wall.
Let them into Canada, then bust them for bigamy. They'll head back to Saudi on the next available flight.
Striking to the core of the issue, multiculturalism is an assertion that your own beliefs and traditions mean -nothing-, and others can spit on them with impunity.
I present so/new/I/whatever and LAS as examples of that.
I have always supported immigration for people who are going to work for what they get and not be pains in the @ss for the rest of us. This is a FREE country.
But if the immigrant intends to bring their culture here to Canada and impose it on me... Well that's different isn't it? Now he's not immigrating, he's invading with ill intent.
I still maintain these Saudi weenies have no idea who we are. If they did this is the last place they'd come.
Stop Islamic Colonization.Everywhere these people go nothing but Murder with domination of others follows.
They delight in the dominion others. Hating Women. They despise our culture & education.The whole planet is filled with their violence. IN fact some calculate 80% of all conflicts is Islam fueled violence. They do not mix with anyone. while trying to force their own lifestyle on everyone. Glorify death, even of children while persecuting their own people by a demonic system OF blasphemy laws/Are cowards in war hiding behind Women & children. Lies are good because the infidel is nothing but dirt between their toes.
I can't wait for the day LAS with his fellow leftist travelers wake up to a knife in the back from their alliance of Hate towards democracy for socialism.
LAS's pants will be yellow when they revel their true face to them as they squirm, than beg for their lives. I suspect even Muslim loath traitors.
But if the immigrant intends to bring their culture here to Canada and impose it on me... Well that's different isn't it?
This isn't happening and won't happen. The Great Islamic Takeover is a fantasy. The AGW of the right.
So/ok/i, I can't respond to you because I don't know what you said.
LAS, have you read a newspaper in the last ten years? I think there are some things you missed, like accommodation, blasphemy laws, riots, honour killings and hijabs.
