NO DISSIDENTS ALLOWED IN CONSERVATIVE CAUCUS<\/span><\/h1>\n

Back when he was seeking the leadership of the Conservative Party, Andrew Scheer said he’d cut federal funding to any university that did not actively promote and defend free speech on campus. Bully for him! We applauded him, We noted how tyrannical Justin Trudeau is with his caucus. No dissent on abortion is allowed. All elected Liberals must bark the pro-abortion line or be expelled from the caucus or denied a nomination. No wonder Trudeau is such an admirer, like his father before bhim, of Red China,<\/span><\/h1>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
Sadly, it didn’t take Andrew Scheer long to change his tune.\u00a0 Lynn Beyak is a feisty senator from Northern Ontario. Last year she begged to dissent from the “residential schools were racist hell holes” politically correct line. That’s part of the Indians good, Whites bad, party line where any Indian shortcomings are blamed on White people, colonialism or Jacques Cartier. She pointed out that many of the poorly paid teachers who tried to give Indian youngsters an education were well meaning and did much good. For that, she was roundly denounced and her own party kicked her off the Aboriginal Affairs Committee.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
However, Beyak received many letters from Canadians with on-the-ground experience who knew that the Ottawa White guilt narrative was largely nonsense. She did what so seldom happens: She gave Canadians a voice. She published their letters on her website.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
Andrew Scheer demanded that she take one of those letters down. She refused. And now she’s out of the caucus.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The National Post (January 4, 2018) picks up the story: “<\/span>\u00a0Sen. Lynn Beyak, who famously declared \u201csome good\u201d came out of Canada\u2019s residential schools, was removed from the Conservative Party caucus after refusing to remove a \u201cracist\u201d comment from her website, Opposition Leader Andrew Scheer said Thursday .\u00a0Scheer said in a statement that he had learned on Tuesday that Beyak had posted approximately 100 letters from Canadians in support of her position on residential schools to her Parliamentary website.\u00a0He said the vast majority of letters focused on the history of residential schools, while others contained comments about Indigenous Canadians in general.\u00a0The Conservative leader said he had asked Beyak to remove one of the letters that suggested Indigenous People want to get things for \u201cno effort\u201d and she refused, resulting in her removal from caucus.\u00a0‘Promoting this comment is offensive and unacceptable for a Conservative Parliamentarian. To suggest that Indigenous Canadians are lazy compared to other Canadians, is simply racist,’ he said.” What’s “racist” about that? The only valid question is whether it’s true or not. While there are many hardworking Indians, for whatever reason, anyone with Northern experience knows there are also many Indians with a poor work ethic. The point is: The comment is an OPINION. It’s debatable. It should not be banned..<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
One reason this country’s political elite of ALL parties is so out of touch with Canadians is there is a whole range of issues that cannot be mentioned. Suggest that the residential schools were an imperfect but well meaning attempt to bring a Stone Age people into the modern work and it’s: “You shut up!” Suggest that there may be something wrong with an immigration policy which will replace, ethnically cleanse, Canada’s European founding\/settler people by 2050, if it’s not changed quickly, and again it’s: “You shut up!”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
But Scheer was almost a moderate beside the Red Guard vehemence of NDP MP Charlie Angus who wants the Prime Minister to find a way to kick her out of the Senate. In “tolerant” Canada, some views just cannot be tolerated by the virtue signallers of political correctness: “Sen. Lynn Beyak — newly turfed from the Conservative caucus — is fundamentally unfit to represent the Canadian people, NDP MP Charlie Angus said Friday as he urged Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to use his influence to get her removed from the upper chamber once and for all.\u00a0In\u00a0a letter to Trudeau<\/a>\u00a0following Beyak’s ouster late Thursday, Angus asks the prime minister to reach out to the independent and Liberal members of the Senate, among others, to convince them to ‘use the tools of the Senate’ to finally put an end to what he calls an “egregious abuse of public office.” (CANADIAN PRESS, Januaryy 5, 2018)’ .<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
So, giving voice to a politically incorrect OPINION is “an egregious abuse of public office” and anti-democratic!<\/div>\n

Sen. Lynn Beyak booted from Conservative caucus over \u2019racist\u2019 post on website<\/h1>\n

Andrew Scheer said in a statement that he asked Beyak to remove a \u2018racist\u2019 letter from her Parliamentary website regarding Indigenous people and she refused<\/h2>\n<\/header>\n
