Banned From Canada

I posted yesterday about Dr. Srdja Trifkovic’s planned speech at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. A Bosniak pressure group had written a letter to President Stephen Toope of UBC protesting Dr. Trifkovic’s appearance, but as of yesterday he was still scheduled to speak.

If President Toope was hesitant about suppressing free speech at UBC, the Canadian government was more forthright: it denied Dr. Trifkovic entry at the border. Our Serbian correspondent Gray Falcon quoted the following explanation from the Canadian government:

Inadmissible on grounds of violating human or international rights for being a prescribed senior official in the service of a government that, in the opinion of the minister, engages or has engaged in terrorism, systematic or gross human rights violations, or genocide, a war crime or a crime against humanity within the meaning of subsections 6 (3) to (5) of the Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes Act.

Remember: this is Canada we’re talking about, a country that admits (and often celebrates) representatives of Islamic theocracies, terrorist front groups, and Hamas-lovers like George Galloway. Not to mention being a long-time fan of Fidel Castro.

Srdja Trifkovic, in contrast, represents no state and no political organization. He speaks for no one but himself. His only offense is to question the dominant narrative about what happened in Bosnia in the 1990s.

Welcome to Modern Multicultural Canada.

Many thanks to Kitman for alerting us to this news video from Canadian television about what happened yesterday:

Irony reigns supreme -
Some of the bravest and best troops in the 'Stan or Iraq are Canadian; at least one Canadian KIA is known as a hero in all the coalition countries.
Yet the general populace of Canada has sat quietly on its collective hands as their society has been flushed down the toilet, one swoosh at a time, by ungodly hate groups
( islam), gutless perverts
( government) and an air of apathy such as has seldom been seen since the slow-motion murder of Katherine "Kitty" Genovese.
Pathetic to think that a once proud people will bow their necks and ask the muslim satan-worshippers to be merciful to them as they willingly slip on the chains of slavery.

ParaPacem,

"[...] at least one Canadian KIA is known as a hero in all the coalition countries."

Who?

That would be Erin Doyle - and it is not to show any less respect for every other red-blooded Canadian who served with honor and bravery - it's just that by and large, many of Canada's sons and daughters who gave their all for freedom, are known mostly among their own countrymen. Erin Doyle's name is known and honored in Canada, the USA, many parts of the UK around the world. A giant and a fierce warrior, yet with a heart that overflowed with love for his mates and his wife. Think of a huge, tattooed, Irish Viking and you've got it.

Wrong, I'm afraid, Trifkovic didn't speak only for himself. He was the spokesperson for the Bosnian Serb Presidency who spent the period of the Srebrenica executions with Karadzic, Koljevic and their advisers discussing presentation to the Western press. That's why he's considered a prescribed senior official.
