The Secularists' Fraudulent Revolution (Or The Revival Of French Canada Alert)
Worldnetdaily.com ^ | 11/10/2007 | Ted Byfield

The latest disclosure came when Radio Canada announced the "Felix" awards for Quebec-generated popular music. A folk-song group calling itself "Mes Aieux" (My Ancestors) had produced what was voted the most popular song in Quebec. It's called "Dégénérations" which (when spoken) could mean either "degeneration," an apt description of what has been happening in Quebec, or perhaps just "generations," a wistful observance of changing times.

The words of the song leave no doubt, however, about its message. They recall and extol the old Quebecois, who courageously broke the land and founded French Canada. The song likewise deplores their descendants who gave it all away and became bureaucrats. Where your great-great-grandmother had 14 children, says the song, "your mom didn't want any, you were an accident." Much of it chronicles the woes of women who have abortions.

The current Taylor-Bouchard commission, for instance, which is investigating how Quebec should accommodate religious minorities, has seen a procession of witnesses, many of them young people, bewail the passing of Catholic Quebec. Others view the commission's hearings quite differently. "The hearings have been a train wreck," snorts McGill University political scientist Jacob T. Levy. "They've provided a juicy opportunity for the most bigoted elements in Quebec society to get a live televised audience for their views."

Jacob Levy, his ideas, and all of the people who share his philosophy, can best serve Quebec (not only Quebec, but the entire world) by dying, the sooner the better. They will never admit that they have foisted upon a credulous public totally disastrous cultural, educational, and social policies, that everything they do, say, and believe is wrong from first axiom to last.

It's wonderful to hear that there is a resurgence of cultural identity among the younger Quebecois. It leaves room for hope that sanity may return to the world. We must demolish the poisonous belief that 'multiculturalism' and 'diversity' are wonderful values, but championing one's own cultural traditions, if one is European, Canadian, or American, is somehow "bigoted."

Exactly. Elite opinion looks down on faith, family and traditional values as outdated and needing to be junked. Most people are still attached to them despite the ridicule from society's "enlightened." That's a good thing.

Took our vacation this year in Quebec City. Could not believe the beauty of the architecture, the St. Lawrence Seaway, the amazing french cooking and the warmth of the people. We got into the history of Quebec City in a big way and toured the country side. The French culture is inviting and they are very tolerant of those of us who stumble our way through their language.

Once again, the baby boomers are going to get punked by their children.

I visited Quebec in 1995, I loved the place. The people seemed nice. Make a nice place to retire if you like cold weather. Beautiful place. Could speak a little french, could speak a lot more if I tried hard enough.

An interesting factoid about Quebec City. It is roughly equivalent in population to Bakersfield, CA or Baton Rouge, LA. There hasn't been a single homocide in Quebec City in a year.

And yes, the restaurant food is excellent.

Thanks for posting this. Americans get the same distorted impressions of Quebec from its liberal media and politicians that the world gets of America.

Montreal and Quebec City are leftist bastions. The countryside and small towns are conservative.

Bien dit, mon vieux, bien dit!

I, too, agree with the sentiments expressed in this song. (In memory of those ancestors of mine who happened to be Louisiana French Acadians (Cajuns) AKA “Coonasses”.

Canada should have broken up into little nations long ago. They could have joined us in 1776. They would have been better off.

That is incredible! Why is this so? Maybe we can try what they’re doing.
