Possibility of Canada Being The Next Great Power?

Unfortunately, it seems to me that there are more Canadian voices calling for assimilation than American voices calling for anexation. This is much more disturbing to me.

With the class of immigrants coming into Canada? Not bloody likely! If all immigration originated from Europe, then absolutely 100%!
You.....Are a fucking moron.
What an ignorant adn racist attitude! Europe has plenty of immigrants from third world countries as well.
$1:
Alas, the majority of immigrants originate from Asia, therefore there is no way in Hell we would ever become a superpower.
Wow. Listen up you racist tard, we would never become a superpower because Canadian politicians don't ahve the balls to do so. It has nothing to do with what kind of immigrants we let into the country. How else would you explain America's dominance as a superpower? They are just as diverse(if not more so) than Canada.
$1:
By all rights, we should be one today due to our enormous cache of natural resources.
We should and we could, but we won't because of the goliath to the south. Remember what happenedwith teh Avro Arrow? What kind of immigrants we allow doesn't enter into it. Stop smoking crack...
$1:
As it is, our so-called powerful economy is strangled by socialist policies which seek to hand everything over to do-nothing immigrants who are granted full rights the very moment they set foot upon our soil (it's in our Charter of Rights you dipshits, clearly a huge mistake which we will be paying for over the decades).
Right. Considering how our economy is strong, stable, successful, getting better.
And please tell me how immigrants do nothing? What I see in the projects around my city(Ottawa) is almost nothing but white people on welfare, while the immigrants are working two jobs. Get a fucking grip.
$1:
It is only when we end all immigration from non-European countries, and put an end to the ridiculous 'rights' for all those who merely step upon our soil will we ever be able to pursue our dream of becoming a global superpower.
There is no possible way to connect the dots on this one.
Canada has a declining birthrate, and nearly all our population increase will be due to immigration. By cutting off immigration from places that you clearly deem unworthy, you cut off the majority of our immigration, effectively crushing any future chance of a Canadian superpower.
$1:
I should like to comment on the idiot who claimed our weather is one reason we are not a superpower.
He meant that it's too fucking cold here, doofus.
$1:
Hello, former Soviet Union?
And look at their national birthrate!!!
Idiot.
$1:
The idiot's stupid remark is clearly a result of socialist education policies. We are churning out morons by the minute.
You're absolutely right. You're living, breathing proof of that.

I spend a bit of time on the UNA site and notice articles that periodically come out of the TStar and Fraser institute arguing for greater unification. Of course, I'm very against this.

And look at how much they contribute to European society and culture:
Arky, I know you (like so many other people these days) are conditioned to dislike what EvilOne said, but the fact of the matter is that what he said is demonstrably true.
Look at Canada before it opened up immigration to non-Europeans and then look at it now.
Is society safer, more productive, more stable, and is Canadian culture better off?
No. It isn't.
Non-Euro immigrants represent a disproportionate number of criminals, social service clients, and sources of new tuberculosis infoection in both the US & Canada.
Hate me for saying it if you want, you already know it's true.

When it comes to Extremist Muslims, as you've decided to point out.
By saying we should only allow European immigrants, he's effectively saying we should allow into our country what you've just posted.

I'd say yes, but of course, I don't speak for all Canadians. I live the relatively peaceful city of Ottawa, where there is tonnes of culture. It's jsut that traidtional Canadian culture a lot fo people find boring; as unfortunate as that is.
Also, I suppose it is a matter of opinion and perspective.

No. It isn't.
Like I said, it is a matter of opinion and perspective.

Because our immigration system is lax and needs serious reform. People who can be successful doctors here end up working in a burger joint or head south. We need to fix this and if we can, I believe that the opinion of people to Asian/Middle-Eastern immigration would shift dramatically.

Also, like it or not Bart, Population growth in Canada DEPENDS on immigration...

If you want cheap population growth sure. If you want domestic population growth you'll have to pay for it like anything else. Somehow people are willing to buy that you have to pay CEO's through the roof to get quality management, but they're unwilling to take these same market principles to other aspects of society. You want domestic Canadian population growth? Get ready to pay for it.

Which is sad because Canada as we know it will eventually cease to exist.

It wouldn't if people in Canada would get married instead of divorcing each other along with the mentality that their job is their life and start pumping out 4 or 5 babies.

Did it ever occur to you that it is lax and in need of serious reform because some people want it to work exactly the way it is working?

I would love domestic population growth, but I'm afraid that many other Canadians don't share that mentality...

True that.

I don't think so, but then again, I'm hopeful.

Who exactly?
Oh wait, let me guess; the Liberals?
Or are you going to Conspiracy theorist on me and say that immigrants have infiltrated the highest levels of government in a secret bid to establish a pan-global immigrant empire and subdue Western Civilization as we know it?
