About Canada…

Just weeks after National Intelligence chair nominee Chas Freeman stepped down from the post, citing the "barrage of libellous distortions" of the Israeli Lobby, it appears the lobbies influence is flexing it's muscle in Canada, by issuing threats to Canadian peace groups and activists who assist British MP George Galloway.

Canada's security officials recently deemed British MP George Galloway as a potential security risk due to his anti-war views. The officials also cited his contribution of humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza as an illegal act. Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney has the authority to override the decision made by Citizenship and Immigration Canada, but he said Friday that he won't intervene.

What prompted Minister Kenney's decision to now allow Galloway in to Canada, it appears, was due to an open letter by the Jewish Defence League of Canada (JDL). JDL Canada National Director Meir Weinstein, in his letter to Minister Kenney, described Galloway as a "proxie of Iran", made references to neo-nazis, and asked that Canada ensure it does everything to "keep this hater out of Canada", and also included a number of out-of-context video clips.

Canada presents a land of opportunities for millions of immigrants in this vast country. Indeed, when it comes to Canada, the word 'immigration' immediately crops up, like another name for the country! This is because historically, the native Canadians inhabiting this huge country were too few to optimally exploit the resources and development potential of the country. The government thus, opted for the next best alternative of opening up its doors for immigrants from all over the world to work towards building a better, prosperous and vibrant nation. And the result is for all of us to see! Canada is today, a cherished destination for skilled professionals, semi-skilled individuals, unskilled workers, and real estate investors.
