The Canadian Patriots Network was founded back in September, 1994 as a voice for Euro-Canadians who feel they are being directly and systematically discriminated against by the government. Basically C.P.N. is an awareness group and an advocacy association. The best way to fight our opposition is with our minds, so information campaigns will be one of our keys to success. If we could reach even 5% of all Canadians we definitely could achieve positive social change. C.P.N. was built on the idea that "everyone has the right to be heard". It was designed as a grassroots organization where the ideas and direction of the group can come from any level, and any person. This makes sure that the C.P.N. is staying on track and always working in the best interest of it's supporters.
The Canadian Patriots Network was formed because we felt that if we all banned together under one name and one banner we could get our individual messages out to a larger amount of people. In September when our old organization the Euro-Canadian Alliance changed it's name to the Canadian Patriots Network and we joined with several other groups in Toronto and across Canada. Our joint success is very far reaching. All the way from our hotline to our Internet mailing list. As of June, 1995 we can reach approximately 50 million people through the Internet and computer networks, almost unlimited amount of people with our hotline. Our Internet and regular mailing service can reach up to 3000 people in only a couple of days. To understand where we want to go you should first see our progress. Here is a chronology starting from our old organization the Euro-Canadian Alliance.
Some of the people highlighted were;
-Henry H. Stevens. Conservative MP
for Vancouver Center (1911)
He HATES telling the TRUTH
Just remember next time you read one of Dunphy's articles..... take it with a grain of salt. He's lied once already who's to say he's not always lying.
In the future, we plan to start up a publication. If you would like to contribute any articles, please don't hesitate to do so. Your articles may be on anything you feel appropriate and feel like writing about. However we cannot guarantee we'll publish it because of Canada's so called "hate" laws. Also in the future we would like to have public meetings and debates. We have always found the "Town hall" type meeting a great place to exchange ideas and meet like-minded people. Another great reason for these meetings is that as new things happen and things change we can discuss them and decide the best course of action to take. This keeps the organization very progressive. At the present time we would like to keep the group simple and focused. We will attack and work towards only a few selected topics. There are so many topics we would like the organization to touch upon, such as declining moral values in Canada, our educational system, free enterprise and the destruction of our long standing institutions like the Royal Canadian Legion. The list goes on and on, but unfortunately we have only limited time and ofcourse limited resources to work with. The hotline will cover and touch upon these areas as well as the areas specialised by the C.P.N. We feel the best way to beat our opposition is by beating them intellectually, not physically.
We feel that employment equity has nothing to do with equality at all, but it is rather reverse and systematic discrimination directed against whites by the government. Employment Equity was built on the preposterous notion that because of all the systematic and intentional racism that exists in Canadian society that racial minorities, people with disabilities, women, and native people can't find jobs and are therefore underrepresented in the workforce. This is totally false! If there really was "systematic racism", why do they need a law that prohibits it? Why don't they just get rid of it, if it's systematic (created by the 'System')? And if there really is an abundance of intentional racism do you think that by forcing an employer to hire someone because of their ethnic background or simply because they are a woman would fix the problem? Of course not, it just pushes the problem aside and creates more racism. How do you think you would feel if you applied for a job, you were properly qualified for it, the best person for the job and the next day received a call from the prospective employer saying that he can't hire you because the company had to fill up their yearly quota and hire someone from the "designated group"? Wouldn't that make a person feel pretty discriminated against? It might even drive some people to become racist!
Provincial Employment Equity became law on December 14, 1993 and was the brainchild of the Minister of Citizenship Elaine Ziemba. Her Employment Equity Bill, (Government Bill 79) was an echo of a similar bill, proposed by who else, Bob Rae. The name of it is Private Members Bill 172, which came around in mid 1990. It passed two readings and was forgotten about because of a provincial election which swooped Bob Rae and his New Democrats into power.
Today's Employment Equity, Bill 79, is the most discriminatory piece of legislation which ever came out of Queens Park! Bill 79 virtually tells employers who to hire and if they don't like it then they can face stiff fines up to $50,000 dollars (Bill 79 Sec. 43). It also sets up a new tier of provincial government called the Employment Equity Commission (Bill 79 Sec. 45-53). It sets up a new justice system called the Employment Equity Tribunal which doesn't have to answer to anyone and has exclusive jurisdiction over these types of cases (Bill 79 Sec. 38). It forces employers take surveys to see how many people of the "designated groups" are employed there (Bill 79 Sec. 10). It also makes employers file an "Employment Equity Plan" to the Employment Equity Commission (Bill 79 Sec. 12), which forces employers actually seek and hire people of these "designated groups" this is called "positive measures". The Employment Equity Plan also makes employers promote people of the "designated groups" to match quotas gathered from these surveys. It also makes employers implement measures to accommodate members of the "designated groups" (Bill 79 Sec. 12 Par.. b) The government has no right telling employers that they have to change how things are done to accommodate a member of the "designated groups".
Bill 79 is so flawed and so discriminatory that it should be repealed immediately, before any real damage is done. What I got into right before this is only the tip of the iceberg at what Bill 79 actually sets up. To receive more information on Bill 79 turn to the last page and order the Bill 79 package. It's well worth it and it enables the reader to properly understand "our" government.
Did you know that in 1990 Canada spent $2,850,000,000 on foreign aid and in 1991 Canada spent $3,021,000,000 on foreign aid (C.I.D.A. Annual Report 1992). The Canadian government since the 1950's has been constantly wasting your tax dollars. Since 1968, Canada's foreign aid policy has been focusing on self-sufficiency rather than it's 1950's goal of rapid industrial development. From that dreadful day in 1968 Canada's foreign aid expenditures have been steadily going up and Canada has barely anything to show for it. Since 1968 to 1991 Canada has wasted $33,196,000,000. If Canada kept spending the 1991 figure for just 20 years it would cost $60,420,000,000. that's 60 Billion down the tubes! Just imagine what 60 Billion dollars could do to our sluggish economy.
Lower taxes! (right)
The first thing the government should do is to change the actual system that administers foreign aid. The system just isn't working and it needs a change.
The second thing the government should do, is go to the people. We feel that since it's our money being spent on foreign aid, we should have a say in how and how much we want to spend on it. The government should go to the people and ask us, how much of our tax dollars do we want to put towards foreign aid. The government should also ask us, what criteria should be used to pick the countries who get our help. Whatever the people say, the government should be forced to act on.
In the past 100 years people have lost sight of what a government was originally set up for. Originally governments were set up "to create and protect a climate in which the system can flourish with justice", unfortunately this idea has been trampled over and governments have become bigger and bigger, more oppressive and self-serving. In a society that is based on freedom, the government should only have limited control over its population. It doesn't have any business to put its nose in areas like (in Canada) how society thinks, what people say, massive regulation on business, funding special interest groups, forcing other countries to do and act how they want (by sanctions and boycotts), and the list goes on and on. The government should only have powers when it comes to criminal law and making of the law, by how the majority wants it. The government should also be in charge of maintenance which is paid for by minimal taxation (roads, highways, public places, ect) and control in keeping Canada's future in place (controls on immigration, funding schools, ect)
The government should take part in the United Nations but should actively oppose any sort of a "one world government". A one world government would only serve the people who run it, not the people it's being supposedly run for. Every time the one world government passed some bill it would benefit one country and hurt another. Plus all the big countries like the United States would probably have control of the government, so they could oppress little countries with little or no resistance from the one world government.
The Government must immediately rescind the "Not withstanding clause" on the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. With the clause the Charter of Rights isn't even worth the paper it's written on. If the "Not withstanding clause" was removed, draconian pieces of legislation like Employment Equity would not be passed. Also section 319 of the Criminal Code (The "Hate" Law) would be unconstitutional because according to section 2b of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms we have the right to say anything we want.
As each day passes George Orwell's "1984" looks more and more like a factual book. In 1984, Orwell spoke of the government changing words and taking words out. It was called "Newspeak". The purpose of "Newspeak" was to make the population on a whole unable to communicate. If you couldn't or didn't know how to say "Revolution" how could you gather a resistance to then take back control of your government? Also the government could control your thoughts, by limiting your vocabulary thereby limiting your access to alternative information. Just think, all you would know is what the government is telling you, true or not. Sadly enough Canada has it own version of "Newspeak". Words are changed to new politically correct, gender-less terms like "Manhole" has been changed to the new politically correct term "Maintenance cover" and "Gingerbreadman" has been changed to "Gingerbreadperson", "Policeman" to "Police Person" and the list just goes on and on. Well, the way the government is going, Orwell only missed it by 20 years he should of instead called his book 2004!
The Canadian Human Rights Act, which created the Human Rights Commission, was set up to extend the laws in Canada to cover the notion "....That every individual should have an equal opportunity with other individuals to make for himself or herself the life that he or she is able and wishes to have, consistent with his or her duties and obligations as a member of society, without being hindered in or prevented from doing so by discriminatory practices based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, age, sex, marital status, family status, disability or conviction for an offence for which a pardon has not been granted." (Section 2 of C.H.R.A.)
Well since you can't discriminate against someone based on race, colour, ethnic origin or sex, the government shouldn't be able to pass the "Employment Equity legislation", right? WRONG! The government weaselled it's way out of that one in section 16 where it states "It is not a discriminatory practice for a person to adopt or carry out a special program, plan or arrangement designed to prevent disadvantages that are likely to be suffered by, or to eliminate or reduce disadvantages that are suffered by, any group of individuals when those disadvantages would be or are based on or related to the race, national or ethnic origin...... ect". All this sounds nice but unfortunately the government seems to think that only Whites do all the discriminating (But if you look at places like China Town, Little India and Little Israel, each respective ethnic group almost always hire people of their own ethnicity. RACISM?)
The Canadian Human Rights Commission has the power to search premises, with a search warrant, initiate a complaint against you on it's own accord, even if both parties agree to a settlement over a dispute the Commission can reject it. The commission also has to maintain close liaison with similar bodies, review and give it's opinion on any regulations, rules, orders, by-laws and any other instruments made pursuant to an Act of Parliament and the Commission shall, as it sees fit, endeavour by persuasion, publicity or any other means it feels appropriate to discourage and reduce discriminatory practice mentioned earlier. Well to sum all this "B.S." up if you are found guilty, you are liable on a summary conviction and could face up to a $5,000, and if you were an employer you could face fines up to a $50,000.
In closing, I think that the Canadian Human Rights Act has too many flaws in it to work efficiently. Too many times in the act the government is stepping too far into places where they have no business. Places like Employment, who the hell are they to say you're discriminating, it's your business and you should be free to do what you feel is appropriate, within reasonable limits. They shouldn't make laws to enforce that! It should be more of socially accepted norms. Also, in section 13 where they talk about "hate messages", I think that is covered in section 2b of the Charter Of Rights and Freedoms, where we have free speech guaranteed to us, so why are these people trying to take it away?
WHAT YOU CAN DO
There are many things you can do to get your voice heard. Here is a short list of things that you can do;
-Write letters
One of the best ways to get a politicians attention is to send him a whole bunch of letters. Be sure to include things like your address, what your problem is, how he can fix it, when you want to hear back from him by (Make a date), always remind him that you have a lot of friends that agree with you and that they can all write letters too, and mention that he is a civil servant and therefore works for all of us.
-Fax letters
Instead of waiting for Canada Post, why not fax them your message. Be sure to include the ideas expressed in writing letters.
-Boycott
If there are companies that seem to be taking the idea of Employment Equity a bit too far and are not hiring Euro-Canadians, why should you give them your business? Just go somewhere else. Make sure you send a few letters to explain to the businesses why you will no longer frequent their establishment. Also, get all your friends that agree with you to write letters to the business too. Remember, the best place to hit a business is in the pocketbook!
-Protest
Probably the best way to express your anger towards a business is by protesting outside their offices. This is both effective and intimidating. They would certainly think twice about doing whatever they did again. Business owners just hate losing business.... even 1 customer could make them re-think their position. Don't forget, before you go and protest, make sure you have alerted the local media and researched your position very thoroughly. You must make up flyers about the protest and your positions on it and hand them out to passerbys and customers.
-Phone
The easiest way to make your point be known is to phone in your complaints. Just imagine, if you and 20 of your friends called the same place in the same day and registered your complaints, something just might be done about it. The phone is one of the best weapons we have in our arsenal of change, so use it and use it frequently!
Radio talk shows are usually on 24 hours a day. The hosts often like to talk about very central issues. Monitor these talk shows as much as possible. If they have shows that you would like to become a participant in or just register your opinion then call in and be heard. These call in shows usually have a good listenership so your opinions will be spread over a wide audience. In Toronto there is one 24 hour talk radio station. This station is CFRB 1010-AM. This station can also be heard on shortwave radio at 6070 KHZ on the 49 meter band. The call in number for CFRB is;
Toronto area (416) 872-1010, Cellular number is *TALK and the out of town number is 1-800-561-CFRB
Many times on t.v. there are live call in shows. Just as in the section above, call and get involved. Rogers / Maclean Hunter cable 10 and CITY T.V. have a lot of call in shows.
A great way to get your ideas across is by writing "Letters to the editor". You can get your opinions across to sometimes over 2 million people. Keep these things in mind when writing the letters:
Be humble....Act nice, Don't swear, don't use slang words to describe people (ie Homo, loser, ect)
Be straight foward-Usually the letters they publish are very small so you have to get the message across with very little space
Be quick and concise
Add your name and address-Some papers won't publish your
letter unless you provide your name and address
Show lots of proof-When you blow them away with pure proof it usually leave your opposition speechless
For more addresses see the section entitled "MEDIA ADDRESSES"
The best way to initiate a conversation is to ask the other person his opinion on a certain topic (ie. What do you think about Employment Equity?) If the person agrees with you then you've got him talking and can slowly introduce him to some of your other ideas. If the person disagrees, then try to ask him why, with out telling him your opinion. If you feel comfortable enough then you can argue your point with him. When you find someone with similar
beliefs encourage him to read information like this handbook. Tell the person to start getting involved and start making his voice heard.
Flyering is a great way to get the word out. There are two methods
to flyering.
MAKING PASTE - The easiest way to make paste is to buy wall paper glue from a local hardware store. Read the instructions on the box on how to make it . It should turn out like slightly thick pancake batter. The other way is to mix flour and water together. You mix the flour and the water till the mixture becomes just like slightly thick pancake mix. If the mixture is too watery it will take a long time to stick to poles, if it is not watery enough it will be hard to use. The best way is to experiment with a small amount of paste and see what proportions are the best. Usually 1 part water to 2 parts flour.
PUTTING UP THE FLYERS - Put the paste in some kind of a bucket. Bring a stick with you to keep stirring the mixture. The next thing you need is a paint brush, the wider the better. First you dip the brush in the paste and cover an area on the pole that will be big enough to put the flyer on. Then you stick the flyer to the wet surface. Next you dip the brush again in the paste and cover the whole flyer. Be sure not to miss any of the corners, if you do it is easy to take the flyers off.
EASIEST WAY - The best way to go flyering is to pick a certain area and do it. Stick to poles and public property. GOOD LUCK!
Having you own hotline is quite a challenge but it is also quite rewarding. If you need an outlet to express your opinions then a hotline might be a good idea. A hotline can reach an enormous amount of people. It can technically reach anyone in the world who has a phone and feels like dialing your 7 or 9 digit number. If they don't like it they can hang up and never call back again. Their are several types of hotlines you can start. One way is to put a phone line in your house and hook an answering machine up to it and put a recorded message on it. This way is out dated and people can get your address from you phone number. It is also more expensive than other ways and can only answer one call at a time. The next way is to set up a voice mail box. Their are several companies in Toronto which can handle this, just look in the Yellow Pages. This way no one can find out where you live and the line can usually answer multiple callers. It is also cheaper in the $20 a month range. When you start up a hotline make sure to keep accurate records of what messages you put on and the dates they were put on. It also helps to keep a audio tape with your messages on it. Make sure that in the opening lines of your message you state that these are your opinions and no one elses. The Charter of Rights and Freedoms protects an individual's right to have his own opinions. For more information on this subject leave your name and number on the hotline or send a self address stamped envelope for an information package on starting up you own hotline.
One way of spreading your opinions is by using a personal computer. There are a lot of Bulletin Board Systems (BBS) in the Toronto area that have access to networks which span the world. These networks link computers together and exchange messages back and forth. So your 1 message could actually reach millions of computer terminals across the world. On these nets there are almost always conferences called politics or debates. You can post your messages there and people can write back and answer you. Some of the bigger networks include Nanet, Fidonet, Accnet, Icenet and Rimenet.
INTERNET - Many BBS's are now offering free Internet e-mail service. If you have the money it is better to join a BBS that has full Internet access. In Toronto there are quite a lot of Internet providers, for example Canada Remote Systems (CRS) is the biggest in Canada and is based in Toronto. You can get the numbers for Internet providers from any computer magazine. On the Internet you can explore literally millions of different conferences on everything you can imagine from Revisionism to Bart Simpson. You can also chat live with people from around the world. Their is a lot to explore on the Internet and it's worth paying the joining costs (usually $100+) For Internet addresses or questions on computing please feel free to leave us a message on the hotline, write us or E-mail us. We will return your call or write you back promptly.
Always keep up on all the current events. You can do this by reading the paper, going to the library, talking to others and of course listening to the various hotlines. One of the best places to find an assortment of information is from the library. The Metro Toronto Reference Library, located at Yonge and Bloor is the best source in Toronto for information. At the reference library they have a government section on the 3rd floor which has copies of the provincial and federal governments Hansard. The Hansard is every word spoken in the house transcribed on to paper so you can read everything they say. In the government section there also is a copy of every bill before the house with all the dates of when they were passed. They also have a multitude of computer databases where you can find information on a certain company, research newspaper articles, and find books from any library in Toronto. Another good way to stay informed is to read information from other groups. Many times other groups publish newsletters and produce videos. In the future we would like to start producing a newsletter and would like your input on it. Just call the hotline or write an article and send it in to our address. (See the section on contacting us)
For all information listed above—-Check with local by-laws and any other law agencies to see if it is allowed in your area.
