Century Initiative in Canada.

Some more good reading.


[h=1]The Absurd Demographic Claims of Century Initiative[/h]
by Ricardo Duchesne



Let us continue dissecting and exposing the poorly researched, deceptive arguments, and faulty statistics employed by Century Initiative (CI) to manipulate "ordinary" Canadians into believing that their nation was never good enough and will decline irreversibly if 450,000 Africans, Muslims, and Asians are not granted citizenship every single year until the end of this century.

The mission statement of CI is to
CI has a definite target: to raise Canada's population to 100 million by the end of this century. CI experts warn us that Canada is "on track for a 53% decline in annual real GDP growth" unless our annual immigration intake is swelled to 450,000.

The same ideologues who continually scold nationalists for instilling fear about actual rape epidemics and massive welfare costs brought on by uncontrolled Muslim immigration have no qualms speaking about current "worrisome trends:"
You may wonder why leading businessmen are suddenly concerned about our health care and ecosystem. Because the supreme ideology of the Western world, and only the Western world, is globalism, which has brought together the left and the right, with the left realizing that the pro-growth arguments of corporations in favour of immigration serve their "humanistic" diversity promoting aims, and the right realizing that leftist arguments about a "caring" society with a healthy environment add a wonderfully humanizing face to corporate profiteering.

One would think that the corporate right and the media/academic left working together would make a better showing in explaining the mission statement of CI. The whole thing is a pile of unsubstantiated fear mongering claims, contradictory goals, and borderline retarded observations. You can already notice this in the just cited passage, which tries to justify a massive increase in Canada's population on the grounds that not taking any action will "ravage" "our delicate ecosystem!"

It can only be described as irony that CI would cut its environmentally friendly platitudes with subservience to an immigration-friendly corporate agenda lusting for cheap immigrant labour and growth for its own sake. After all, massive populations can be seen as the biggest threat to the environment. Paul Ehrlich and John Holdren created the IPAT Equation, which was the foundational formula of the environmental movement as it emerged in the 1970s. The equation, I = P x A x T, expresses the idea that environmental impact (I) is the product of three factors:

1. population (P)
2. affluence (A)
3. technology (T)

Population is a key factor in this equation. More people require expansion of living areas, clearing of more land for real estate, use of more resources, such as water and fuel, which involve an increase in greenhouse gas emissions, which threaten "our delicate ecosystem."

As if the fake environmentalism of CI was not enough, and perhaps even more absurd, is the claim that without a massive increase in immigration, "Canada's population base is currently forecast to be 53 million in the year 2100," which will place Canada "outside of the top 45 countries, behind Madagascar and Burkina Faso." They mean "outside of the top 45 nations in population size." A low ranking in population size "will discourage business growth on all fronts — resulting in falling housing starts, diminished relevance to our trading partners, and a smaller domestic market for retail sales."

Honestly, could not the rich globalists who organized this initiative have done some basic research on the current top countries in population size? They are China, India, United States, Indonesia, Brazil, Pakistan, Nigeria, Bangladesh, Russia and Mexico. Why should Canadians make it their supreme goal to belong in this list?!

I will get into more details in future articles challenging the CI website that economic prosperity necessitates a large population. Suffice it to remind the poorly educated experts at CI that the top 10 countries in the world with the highest human development index, which is a composite statistic of life expectancy, education, and per capita income indicators, have a relatively low population: Norway, Australia, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Singapore, Netherlands, Ireland, Iceland, Canada.


One can only be very suspicious about a group that insists that Canada needs to have a third world demographic profile in order to sustain its prosperity, protect the environment, and educated the nation.

There is indeed something very sinister about the fact that mass immigration is now being pushed not just in Canada but in all European created nations by a similar coalition of leftists and corporate heads, with the same talking points about how prosperity, a good environment, and high levels of education necessitate a continuously high level of Muslim and African migrants with not even a high school education.

I will demonstrate in future articles that none of the individuals, from left to right, associated with Century Initiative can be trusted. The only reason the absurd arguments of the globalists (not to be confused with the healthy pro-globalization arguments of the Japanese) have managed to gain any credibility is through the use of coercive totalitarian controls against hard working Canadians.

[h=1]Convergence of the Globalist Right and the Muslim/Left in Century Initiative[/h]
by Ricardo Duchesne



We have seen the dubious claims the two key founders of Century Initiative, Dominic Barton and Goldy Heir, make about why Canada needs to be swamped by 450,000 immigrants per year. Century Initiative is packed with bogus arguments and clonish characters. Below I identify the other founders, some members of the "Advisory Board" and a few "Contributors." This identification will illustrate beyond a shadow of a doubt that leftists and conservatives in Canada are members of the same globalist ideology.

[h=3]Three More Corporate Founders[/h]
The other three founders wittingly pushing for the marginalization of Eurocanadians are Tom Milroy, Managing Director, Generation Capital Limited, Andrew Pickersgill, Senior Partner at McKinsey & Company, and Mark D. Wiseman, Global Head of Active Equities for Black Rock.

Nothing in particular stands out about these consultants. The administrative machine of the cultural Marxist rationalized corporation can only do what it was designed to do. Personnel classification and role-taking require interchangeability of parts; therefore, individual appointments and dismissals are not intended to make much difference to the overall structure and functioning of the corporation. Some personnel are more energetic than others, and a few, deep down, sense something is amiss about bringing hordes of immigrants every year into our congested cites, but even those in high office find it very difficult to challenge the already institutionalized pro-diversity objectives of Western corporations.

It is not an oxymoron to conjoin the terms capitalist corporation and cultural Marxism. What the intellectually lazy academic world has yet to realize is that leftist ideas lend themselves marvellously well to corporate agendas. Listen to these three founders:

Tom Milroy:
Andrew Pickersgill:
Mark D. Wiseman:
I have been hearing similar expressions for the last 20 years in the academic world. Every politician, journalist, administrator, businessman, in unison with every 12 year old across the West, is expected to utter similarly conjoined words as part of their "community engagement." Have you ever heard Justin say anything different?

The claim that Canada is and should be a model to the world is a claim our establishment has been making for decades ever since Trudeau said so in the 1960s. Don't these founders know that today Australia, the United States, New Zealand, Britain, France, and Sweden, Germany, Norway, Italy, Spain...have embraced immigrant multicultural as the one characteristic that makes them uniquely a model?

Don't they know that Sweden has already cornered the market as the "humanitarian superpower" in its willingness to welcome millions of Muslims and Africans while suppressing any research attempting to "estimate the causal effect of immigration on sexual assault or homicide rates" after it was revealed in the last official report in 2005 that immigrants "were four times more likely to be suspects in homicide cases than those with Swedish origin, and 4.5 times more likely to be suspects in rape cases, for the years 1997 to 2001. The rape statistics, all the signs show, have worsened since, with the entrance of millions of migrants during 2015 and 2016, but the Swedish government says it is racist to report Muslim rapes.


Perhaps these founders of CI mean to say that Canada will truly become a model once its population reaches 100 million. But this would be just as ridiculously ignorant since the pluralistic United States is a nation with 321 million, open to millions of immigrants annually, the "exceptional nation," and yet it only managed to achieve an average annual GDP growth of 1.48% during Obama's two terms, with worse race relations than ever.

We will see in future articles how fundamentally erroneous is the CI supposition that population growth is the key driver of economic prosperity. Population growth will certainly increase the coffers of consultants, immigration lawyers, the ethnic vote, real estate speculation and profiteering, but not the well being, wages, human development index of average Canadians, AND it will destroy forever the ethno-cultural identity of Canada.

[h=3]Leftists in the Advisory Board[/h]

Globalism is an ideology that has brought the left and the right together with both sides realizing that they need each to create the image of "healthy debate" complementing each other within a rigid synthesis that excludes dissenting views.

Of the 17 names in the Advisory Board, seven can be said to be media types, academics, and activists.

The business types play up the easy slogans academics handed to them. There is a guy named Francesco Aquilini, managing director of Vancouver-based Aquilini Investment Group, which owns the Vancouver Canucks and Rogers Arena, identified by Wiki as a "philanthropist." Perhaps he is best described as a flipper of 'Megamansions.'

There is another guy named "Richard Li" that Wiki also identifies as a "philanthropist" and as one of the "richest Hong Kong businessmen." Li inhabits the Asian world as chief executive of the Pacific Century Group while treating Canada like a hotel doormat, or so Wiki seems to imply in stating that he obtained Canadian citizenship in order to make bids for PCCW, which is a Hong Kong based communications company: "to purchase stakes in companies such as Air Canada and Bell Canada Enterprises without running afoul of restrictions on foreign ownership."

Li is certainly not shy about what Canada should be:
What should China been known for, Mr Li? That China's human rights violations have grown increasingly severe in recent years? That child slave labour is pervasive? That China systematically represses minorities?

That defenseless dogs are boiled alive?

Don't worry, if these corporate types can't meet leftist expectations, quite a few bona fide leftists have been brought in to bring a human face to Century Initiative. The advisory board member Naomi Alboim may just be an "Adjunct Professor" at Queens University, but she is a recipient of Queen Elizabeth II's Gold and Diamond Jubilee Medals and a member of the Order of Ontario — for her efforts to increase the proportion of refugees represented in Canada's immigration flow and for her overall philosophy that Canada will be respected in the world only when it open its borders to massive immigration from such human rights-oriented countries as Pakistan and China.

We already met the adviser Howard Duncan as the executive head of Metropolis Project. He has a PhD in Philosophy, and after lifetime of reflection he came to the conclusion that Toronto was a "boring" place before third world immigrants brought their vibrancy. Ask Duncan if he can answer this dialectical question: why did millions of vibrant people migrated out of their vibrant lands through the 1970s and 1990s for boring Toronto? Here is Toronto just a few decades ago when it was almost totally Eurocanadian:


Duncan says Canada can only become a true "arts and culture hub of the world" with the arrival of 100 million third worlders. Ask him if he can explain why diversity is a precondition for cultural creativity. He has a PhD, don't give him an easy pass, ask him why the racially homogeneous ancient Greeks produced one of the most creative cultures in human history, or why the White supremacist Scots were the backbone of the "British" enlightenment during the 1700s, or why the Teutonic Germans produced the greatest philosophers from Leibniz to Heidegger?

Then there is Aleema Jamal, identified by CI as a Harvard Law Student and the "Inaugural Executive Director" of Century Initiative. Let's see if we can find something noteworthy about her career...last summer she retweeted a Globe and Mail article by Erna Paris, "Canadians must never take multiculturalism for granted." The message of this article is that Canadians must be continually "educated" about the blessings of mass immigration so they learn never to question multiculturalism.

This article opens with the most often told lie in Canada: "In historical terms, most Canadians are immigrants." No, Erna, here is a fact about the first two centuries of Canada's history:

• From 1608 to 1760, immigration to French Canada consisted of only 10,000 settlers, and thereafter it was "almost non-existent." The French-speaking population numbered about 90,000 by 1770s, and thereafter, until the late 1800s, the population expanded rapidly with women having 5.6 surviving children on average. The increase in population in Lower Canada from 330,000 in 1815 to 890,000 in 1851 "was mainly attributable to the continuing high birth rate within the French-speaking community."

It is not clear why Natasha Saunders is a member of the "Advisory Board" other than to give CI an image of caring for sick children; she is a clinician-investigator in the Division of Pediatric Medicine at The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. Oh, wait, Natasha does have a truly original vision:
[h=3]Contributors: Coalition of Muslims and Leftists[/h]

The "Contributors" includes some of the founders and advisers we already met and some rather interesting new characters. There is Rany Ibrahim, who claims to be a Renaissance man "business professional, writer, academic, entrepreneur and community leader," truly, a "Man of Many Identities," unlike your boring average Anglo, "a cosmopolitan, Egyptian, Nova Scotian, Haligonian, academic, and secular Muslim" all in one. This incredible feat landed him a 2013 RBC Top 25 Immigrant Award Winner.

This type of claim that race mixed individuals with links to the Third World are somehow superior culturally and racially to "monolithic" Whites is now very common; it is indeed intrinsic to the whole idea that Canada needs immigrants to improve itself. It will never occur to these supremacists to ponder over the question why the Renaissance was uniquely Italian/European, one of many great epochs in Europe's history, achieved with zero immigration.

Monia Mazigh, a Muslim "who catapulted onto the public stage in 2002 when her husband Maher Arar, was deported to Syria where he was tortured, claims that if we accept 450,000 immigrants every year until 2100, Canada will be seen as a "heaven" for every single person in the world, which will then make Canada a magnet for ever more immigrants, transforming it into the greatest nation in the annals of history.

Can you believe this? Hassan Yussuff, the current President of the Canadian Labour Congress, is also also a "contributor" to CI demanding a massive increase in immigration? Historically labour leaders have been against the importation of cheap immigrant workers. But Yussuff, a Guyana-born Muslim, has taken the opposite stand. He clearly values making Canada more diverse than the wages of workers.

Finally, the last leftist pro-Muslim member of CI is none other Doug Saunders, Globe and Mail journalist well known for his feminist denial that Swedish women are being raped by Muslims, for which he took a beating from Canadian commenters, who are beginning to see through his fake journalism. The Swedish, too, are starting to see through the official suppression of rape statistics.


Remember, Doug is the author of The Myth of the Muslim Tide, in which he dismisses concern about the dangers of Islamic radicalism and every problem associated with immigration, welfare dependency, high imprisonment stats, to give a fake sense of comfort to ordinary Canadians so that he can sneakily continue his career promoting mass immigration across the West.

There you have it. This is what CI is about. The corporate founders of Century Initiative know how to play the fake humanitarian concerns of the left as an excellent moral umbrella for global capitalism. By the same token, leftists love corporate sponsorship, grants, and the ability to hang out in luxury hotels and big shopping malls.

In future articles, we will demolish every economic claim CI makes about the supposed benefits of immigration to Canada.
