You'll often see Canadian identity described in relation to America.
00:00:09.840
While none of these are sufficient descriptions of what it means to be Canadian,
00:00:14.400
Canada was established in large part in reaction to America.
00:00:17.440
We are the people that rejected the American experiment of radical liberalism and republicanism.
00:00:22.000
We maintain collectivist, communitarian values.
00:00:24.560
We believe in peace, order, and good governance,
00:00:26.800
rather than life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
00:00:29.200
We believe that the common good must be prioritized over individual liberty,
00:00:32.960
and that a strong central government is necessary to preserve this good.
00:00:36.480
Many Canadian nationalists and right-wingers reflexively reject our communitarian tendencies,
00:00:41.120
and instead advocate for embracing American liberalism. And I understand why. In recent
00:00:45.280
history, these communitarian tendencies have been weaponized against us. Censorship laws,
00:00:49.840
firearms restrictions, COVID mandates, all of these are restrictions on individual
00:00:53.360
rights to preserve the common good. But we will never succeed by going against
00:00:57.040
the anti-American instincts of the Canadian. On the contrary, nationalism will only succeed
00:01:01.880
through embracing our communitarian tendencies. It's becoming more and more obvious that mass
00:01:06.200
immigration has been catastrophic for the common good of Canadian society. It has unleashed chaos
00:01:11.220
and disorder. Our country is becoming unrecognizable. The only way to protect the common good,
00:01:15.820
to restore peace, order, and good governance in Canada, is remigration.
