Chapter 1: The Stage is Set




                              Freedom of expression is essential to every human
                        right. Both declarations proclaim that,



                                     “Everyone has the right to freedom
                              of  opinion  and  expression;  this  right
                              includes freedom to hold opinions without
                              interference  and  to  seek,  receive  and
                              impart  information  through  any  media
                              and regardless of frontiers.”



                              Despite these provisions, the European Union has
                        declared war on free speech when opinions are contrary
                        to cultural relativism. Cultural relativists believe that all
                        cultures are worthy in their own right and are of equal
                        value. Diversity of cultures, even those with conflicting
                        moral beliefs, is not to be considered in terms of right
                        and  wrong  or  good  and  bad.  Globalism  in  Western
                        Europe has led to a loss of national purpose and identity
                        in most countries. Europe is on its cultural deathbed,
                        and  Canada’s  multicultural  policies  that  promote
                        diversity are pushing it down the same path.

                              The Canadian legislature changed the country’s
                        1908 national anthem by replacing the words “in all thy
                        sons command” to “in all of us command” to make the
                        song more gender neutral. The offending words refer-
                        enced men who lost their lives in World War I. Canada
                        is an example of a country moving toward a system of
                        values as opposed to national identity because there has
                        been an erasure of culture, of ethnicity, of European
                        heritage, imposed on society from the top down.
