Built Better for Whom?
Prior to Justin’s step father, Pierre Elliot Trudeau (PET) immigrants to Canada quickly assimilated and became Canadian. Canada was a melting pot. PET did not like that and he began to aggressively pursue multiculturalism. New Canadians were encouraged to hold on to their culture and not assimilate because assimilation and getting along with others was now somehow bad.
Public Schools were enlisted to teach that the United States was a melting pot and Canada was multicultural. I was of course taught that the Canadian approach was superior to the American though I could see no obvious advantages to multiculturalism. It never made sense to me why someone would immigrate to Canada if they did not want to be Canadian.
Now that I am older multiculturalism makes sense. I still have not found any inherent value in multiculturalism but I have come to understand the motivation behind it. Politicians use multiculturalism as a weapon.
Western governments are also using multiculturalism to destroy our societies. Prior to COVID multiculturalism was the most effective weapons governments wielded. This is not about race it is about culture. You can have a multi-racial society you just cannot have a multicultural society. Culture is many things. One of them is a common set of ideals and morals. There is mutual agreement about what is right and what is wrong.
The political elite want to fundamentally change our societies but you can’t build something new before destroying the old. History is very clear on how this can be done. The best way to destroy a society that has persevered for centuries is to adopt multiculturalism.
The incentives for individuals to integrate themselves as Romans were also clear. A Gaul or a Spaniard did not get ahead by being a Gaul or a Spaniard but by becoming Roman.
So why did Rome finally “fall?” In Der Fall Roms, Alexander Demandt famously provides 210 reasons. We will only consider one of the key reasons here: Rome’s shift from a “melting pot” to a “multicultural” system of managing its ethnic diversity.
In a melting pot individuals get ahead by contributing to society. In multiculturalism groups get ahead by taking from society. Once each group claims their piece the society is gone; fragmented in to various ethnic and cultural enclaves.
PET may have acted sooner than most but Canada is certainly not alone on this destructive path. Every multicultural society is seeing the destructive nature of multiculturalism. Different Ethnic groups are carving out their enclaves with violence and fraud. The balkanization of western society at this point likely cannot be stopped.

Multiculturalism, COVID and Climate Change are all part of the same plan. The elite are tearing down societies that took centuries to build in order to build back better for their own interests. They are not just fiddling while Rome burns. They lit the fire and every day they pour fuel on it.
