Immigration As Seen By Wilfrid Laurier 1907

Click Picture To Enlarge.   Makes Sense To Me.
Wilfrid Laurier ideas on Immigrants and being a Canadian in 1907.

‘In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith

becomes a Canadian and assimilates himself to us,
he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else,
for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed,
or birthplace, or origin..
But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet a Canadian, and nothing but a Canadian…
There can be no divided allegiance here.
Any man who says he is a Canadian, but something else also, isn’t a Canadian at all.
We have room for but one flag, the Canadian flag…
And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the Canadian people.’
Wilfrid Laurier 1907

Humor For Friday, November 25 2011

If you have ever had to deal with  government inspectors you will enjoy this. 

The Montana Department of Employment, Division of Labour Standards claimed a small rancher was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to investigate him.

GOVT AGENT: I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them.

RANCHER: Well, there’s my hired hand who’s been with me for 3 years. I pay him $200 a week plus free room and board. Then there’s the mentally challenged guy. He works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around here.  He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also sleeps with my wife occasionally. 

GOVT AGENT: That’s the guy I want to talk to – the mentally challenged one.

RANCHER: That would be me.

Hunters Showing Off

Thought I would let you see a few hunters that got their prey for the year. Strange lookin’ folks driving that truck, but over the years I have come to the conclusion not to question what I see. Click Picture To Enlarge for better viewing.

Humour For A Monday Morning

Bit of humour for a Monday Morning

After being married for 40 years, I took a careful look at my wife one day and said ……. “Forty years ago we had a cheap house, a junk car, slept on a sofa bed and watched a 10-inch black and white TV, but I got to sleep every night with a hot 23-year-old girl.  Now … I have a $500,000.00 home , a $35,000.00 car, a nice big bed and a large screen TV, but I’m sleeping with a 63-year-old woman.  It seems to me that you’re not holding up your side of things.”

 

My wife is a very reasonable woman.  She told me to go out and find a hot 23-year-old girl and she would make sure that I would once again be living in a cheap house, driving a junk car, sleeping on a sofa bed and watching a 10-inch black and white TV.

Aren’t older women great? They really know how to solve an old guy’s problems.
