Wow. I guess that essay was too close to the truth.

Am I missing some allusion in that essay that makes it so very objectionable? I admit that I know little of Our Little Brothers in the Great White North, but I can't see the problem.

First of all, the essay hints that some
barbaric customs of the Indian culture may
be "barbaric".

It also, implies that for Indians conversion to
or at least contact with Christianity is a good
thing.

Finally, it points out the obvious that the
traditional liberal notion (and Christian notion)
of "universalism" (not the sect) is fundamentally
incompatible with multiculturalism. The theme (well summarized in this article) could serve as
a nice piece of amunition against multiculturalism
in the public sphere.

Gee that's a blow. Warren, in my view, is right up there with the best of them. If not, the best...

Perhaps it's because multiculturalism is a sacred cow and beyond attack, or more likely, because he likened Canada's multiculturalism policy to the destructive, paternalistic practices of the British Empire, with the warning starkly implicit.
Canada, paternalistic? Canada, colonialist? Doesn't wash well at all, I wouldn't think.

All speculative, but such a warning coming close on the heels on the experimentation with Shari'a courts has perhaps touched a nerve.

Or it might be personal, or a distinct policy change, as Steyn too, was let go about six months back.

Why mourn every Canadian conservative who loses a job? We all know where they end up.

Come South, Mr. Warren! You may simply be an American who was born in the wrong place.

"Come South, Mr. Warren!"

Why?So he can see the same thing happening here?

David Warren and Mark Steyn can form the Free Canadian Punditocracy in Exile, supporting the Resistance with essays and guerilla e-mails until that happy day when unstoppable conservative armies march north ("Operation Beauty, Eh?") to overthrow Trudeaupia and liberate Canada from itself.

You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.

Actually, I don't think it was that essay alone, or even very much. I noticed about a month ago that the Ottawa Citizen had removed David Warren's column archive from its web site (so my link no longer worked) -- I figured then that this was coming.

David Warren is a treasure and I hope that like Mark Steyn he can find a place. His home is western civilization itself, not Canada.

I would add, side projects / splinter groups), the results are rarely as satisfying, whether ambien or not you (as the listener) are expecting pharmalogies the same music. I find that to be true. Another celebrex thing that seems related to me: when the focus propecia of a band is several different songwriters soma writing their own material and alternately paxil using the rest of the band as back-up or as vioxx session musicians (and even more noticeably cialis when a band has initially been more of the tramadol collabourative, holistic bent), the music zyrtec

Glad you revealed the truth.

hmm..
