The following vile, disgusting, offensive, hateful, homophobic comments
are proof why the Conservative Party of Canada should not govern this
country. It's one thing to support the traditional definition of
marriage, but it's quite another to spew this sort of vile, disgusting,
offensive, hateful, homophobic rhetoric.
The Conservative Party of Canada is a hotbed of racists, sexists,
bigots, homophobes, chauvinists, and misogynists. Despite Stephen
Harper and the Conservative Party of
Canada would like to have you believe that they are a modern, centrist,
progressive conservative party who are primarily concerned with lower
taxes, less bureaucracy, clean government, and toughness on crime; the
fact remains that they have a well hidden, secret, agenda of staunch
social conservatism which is driven primarily by the right-wing,
extremist, religious fundamentalist grip on the party. Furthermore,
many people in the Conservative Party of Canada have made many
offensive comments in the past about women, visible minorities,
aboriginals, gays, lesbians, bi-sexuals, and transgendered people;
leading further credence to the notion that the Conservative Party of
Canada is largely dominated by hateful bigots, with very little room
for progressive voices. The political and social culture of the
Conservative Party of Canada is much closer to what you would find in
redneck American states like Texas or Alabama.
The vast majority of Canadians in many different public opinion polls
have shown that they strongly support the full equality of gay,
lesbian, bi-sexual, and transgendered people; and
according to very recent public opinion polls the close to 2/3 of all
Canadians fully support
the right of gay, lesbian, bi-sexual, and transgendered people to be
married if they so desire.
Stephen Harper and the Conservative Party of Canada are very out of
touch with the views of the vast majority of Canadians who are fair,
tolerant, reasonable, and socially progressive.
Stephen Harper and the Conservative Party of Canada are not
Conservatives in the Canadian tradition; they instead represent the
intolerant, bigoted, ignorant, backwards, dogmatic, unreasonable,
extremist religious fundamentalist strain of American Conservatism.
Canadians who are gay, lesbian, bi-sexual, and transgendered have made
enormous and greatly valuable contributions to the political, economic,
academic, social, and culture fabric of this great country. Stephen
Harper and the Conservative Party of Canada wish to
dehumanize gay, lesbian, bi-sexual, and transgendered Canadians.
The Conservative Party of Canada is full of backward, regressive,
Neanderthals who would love to be able to turn the social clock in
Canada back to the 1950's whereby white men controlled and dominated
virtually all functions in society from government, business, and
academia to the justice system and law enforcement. Are these sorts of
hateful, redneck, trailor trash the kinds of people who we want
dictating social policy to a modern, tolerant, progressive country like
Canada?. Think twice before you vote for these revolting fascists.
Conservative Party of Canada MPs on the topic of gay rights:
"I want the whole world to know that I do not condone homosexuals. I do
not condone their activity. I do not like what they do. I think it is
wrong. I think it is unnatural and I think it is totally immoral. I
will object to it forever whenever they attack the good, traditional
Canadian family unit that built the country."
- Conservative MP Myron Thompson.
"When you go into the issue of homosexuals and lesbians it's in the
interest of society to have the right to discriminate against that
group in areas of ... schools is one that comes to mind."
- Conservative Party Natural Resources critic Dave Chatters arguing in
favour of discrimination against gays on a radio station in Westlock,
Alberta, on April 30th 1996.
"For instance, I'm not opposed to gays, but if you bring one of those
suckers into my school and they try to push their crap on my students,
I have a problem with that. "
- MP Myron Thompson opposing education promoting understanding of gays
in the Belleville Intelligencer, April 29th 1994.
"The danger in having sexual orientation just listed, that encompasses
for example pedophiles. I believe that the caucus as a whole would like
to see it repealed."
- Conservative MP Cheryl Gallant on CTV News, June 5th 2004, attacking
proposed hate propaganda legislation that would protect homosexuals.
"That's my guess, yes, especially where you have alcohol and drugs and
mix that with very short-term changing sexual relationships... There's
a lot of jealousy... they [homosexuals] are vengeful, and their health
isn't very good. [Skinheads bashing gays] is one kind of marginalized
group doing its thing against another marginalized sub-group, which
essentially has nothing to do with human rights before the law. It's
purely one gang going against another gang."
- New Westminster-Coquitlam Conservative MP Paul Forseth opposing
legislation to protect gays from hate crimes, March 18th 1995, House of
Commons.
"You're being told this is good and normal and that you shouldn't
think that there's anything wrong with it, which is what's
happening to our young people now in our schools. So they start looking
and they start checking and they start experimenting, and this is what
I'm talking about . . . an orchestrated recruitment plan. So you back
it down to the impressionable and vulnerable and then bring it all the
way through their life, and you know, this is quite understandable how
this can happen."
- Canadian Alliance MP Larry Spencer speaking about the
"well-orchestrated" homosexual conspiracy, Vancouver Sun, November 27,
2003.
"The [homosexual] activists that organized in those days [encouraged]
people of their persuasion to enter into educational fields, and to do
this with the feeling of a mission, you know, of going out there as
pioneers in a -- quote-- human rights area, and I think they were
successful as we've seen."
- Canadian Alliance MP Larry Spencer, speaking about the
"well-orchestrated" homosexual conspiracy, Vancouver Sun, November 27,
2003.
"When it comes to people who wish to live together, whether they are
women or men, why do they have to be out here in the public always
debating that they want to call it marriage? If they are going to live
together, they can go live together and shut up about it."
- Conservative MP Elsie Wayne tells gays and lesbians to shut up.
"I do believe it was a mistake to have legalized it."
- Canadian Alliance family issues critic Larry Spencer speaking about
homosexuality, Vancouver Sun, November 27, 2003. The U.S.-born former
Baptist pastor also argued that the gay-rights movement's recent
successes in areas like same-sex marriage stem from a
"well-orchestrated" homosexual conspiracy.
"They probably should have used the notwithstanding clause as Ralph
Klein has said he will do, but they're not doing that at this time and
definitely we had hoped, the majority of the people had hoped, that
they would appeal the decision on Ontario, but they haven't done that
either."
- Conservative MP Elsie Wayne on gay marriage.
"In the 1950s, buggery was a criminal offence. Now it's a requirement
to receive benefits from the federal government."
- Yorkton-Melville Conservative MP Garry Breitkreuz commenting on same
sex benefits,
The Leader-Post, March 3, 2000.
