Canadian Immigration Report and the Quebec Education System: Well, THIS Is Interesting

We didn't have a great deal of time earlier today to discuss the story regarding the group Canadian Immigration Report (CIR) and their invitation, since withdrawn, to be witnesses at the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration. As far as we can tell the story was first made public by the NDP and was later picked up by the msm and bloggers.

We had come across the CIR some time ago but we started significant attention once they interviewed Kyle McKee who was speaking for Blood & Honour in Calgary (we'll post the screen shots of the interview on the CIR website at the bottom of the page). The agenda of the CIR is clear as day if one simply spends three minutes examining the website, however our concern is that they have attempted to surreptitiously influence the education system of Quebec in a small way.

You see, one of the CIR members who was invited by the Conservatives to act as witnesses is also an author:

Canadian Immigration Report Called By Conservatives to Testify

This writer has to be off to work and isn't sure if the other members are aware of this yet, but we're sure you could read more about this at some of our friend's blogs. We will note that in addition to buddying up to Paul Fromm and writing about the virtues of the Nazi Party, Canadian Immigration Report also did a softball interview with Calgary's own Blood & Honour gang's leader Kyle McKee who is currently in jail awaiting trial on assault and weapons charges.

We'll get back to this when one of us is available to do so.

Sometimes we like to revisit some older stories, some of which are so old they predate this blog by close to four decades.

For example, here's a name we haven't heard about in years:

Well, it's not entirely true that you were the provincial Socred leader, is it Paulie?
