Canada MP Maxime Bernier questions Trudeau's 'diversity' slogan

Ottawa, Aug 13 (IBNS): Canada's Conservative MP Maxime Bernier has questioned Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's 'diversity' slogan, saying it will lead to destruction of the country.

In a series of tweets, Bernier torn apart Trudeau.

In the first tweet, Bernier said: "Trudeau continues to promote its slogan "Diversity is Our strength". Yes, Canada is a huge and diverse country. This diversity defines us and must be celebrated. But where do we draw the line?"

1/ Trudeau continue de promouvoir son slogan «la diversité est notre force». Oui, le Canada est un pays immense et divers. Cette diversité nous définit et doit être célébrée. Mais où trace-t-on la ligne?

Diversity is what makes Canada strong: Trudeau https://t.co/dZmCffRBFY

Upholding Canada as a country where freedom of speech is prevalent, Bernier said: "ethnic, religious and linguistic minorities have been suppressed in the past. We have done a long way to rectify these inequities and give equal rights to all. Canada is now one of the countries where you can most freely express your identity."

2/ Des minorités ethniques, religieuses, linguistiques ont été réprimées dans le passé. Nous avons fait bcp de chemin pour redresser ces injustices et donner des droits égaux à tous. Le Canada est aujourd’hui l’un des pays où l’on peut le plus librement exprimer son identité.

"But why promote ever more diversity? If anything is Canadian, what does it mean to be Canadian? Why not focus on our cultural traditions, what we have in common that differentiates us from other cultures and societies?"

3/ Mais pourquoi promouvoir toujours plus de diversité? Si tout et n’importe quoi est canadien, que signifie être Canadien? Pourquoi ne pas mettre l’accent sur nos traditions culturelles, ce que nous avons en commun qui nous différencie des autres cultures et sociétés?

In the fourth tweet, Bernier tweeted, "Welcoming people who reject the fundamental values of the west of freedom, equality, tolerance and openness does not make us stronger. Those who refuse to integrate and want to live in their ghettos do not make our society stronger."

4/ Accueillir des gens qui rejettent les valeurs fondamentales de l’Occident que sont la liberté, l’égalité, la tolérance et l’ouverture ne nous rend pas plus forts. Ceux qui refusent de s’intégrer et veulent vivre dans leur ghetto ne rendent pas notre société plus forte.

The Conservative MP, in the fifth tweet, said Trudeau's diversity will divide the country into pieces. "The extreme multiculturalism and Trudeau's diversity cult will divide us into small tribes that are less and less in common, apart from their dependence on the government. Political clientele that we buy with taxpayers ' dollars and privileges."

5/ Le multiculturalisme extrême et le culte de la diversité de Trudeau vont nous diviser en petites tribus qui ont de moins en moins en commun, à part leur dépendance envers le gouvernement. Des clientèles politiques qu’on achète avec de l’$ des contribuables et des privilèges.

He added, "cultural Balkanization brings distrust, social conflict and potentially violence as seen everywhere. It is time to reverse this trend before the situation worsens. More diversity won't make us stronger, it will destroy our country."

6/ La balkanisation culturelle amène la méfiance, les conflits sociaux et potentiellement la violence comme on le voit partout. Il est temps de renverser cette tendance avant que la situation n’empire. Plus de diversité ne nous rendra pas plus fort, cela détruira notre pays.
