A REPORT FROM QUEBEC'S FRONT LINES

by Rémi Tremblay

The Reds had launched a challenge:

Citizens who refuse to accept the uncontrolled flow of mass immigration imposed by the system would not be able to express themselves openly in the streets of Quebec City on November 25th.

The Far Left would physically "defend" governmental policies against the rising tide of popular discontent—a superficially surprising position as the antifas usually claim to be against the government.

LIBERAL CORRUPTION

by Rémi Tremblay

Six years ago, Maclean’s (Canada’s national weekly current affairs and news magazine) labeled Quebec “the most corrupt province” of Canada. At that time, the Liberal government led by Jean Charest also launched an inquiry to investigate corruption in the judge nomination process. A year later, the same government had to set up another committee, this time dealing with the construction business. The corruption proved to be widespread, both at the city and provincial levels, with contracts being given according to the donations received by the party. And the mob got its share as well, to reward it for playing the role of middleman between crooked politicians and greedy entrepreneurs.

TRUDEAU THE SECOND

A Liberal in action: notice how it voraciously sucks up all the signalling power from this small, frightened Sub-Saharan child.

It took ten years for Canadians to have enough of Stephen Harper. His successor managed to do that in only a month. Justin Trudeau, son of the father of modern Canada, has been in power for less than two months and already he has angered the majority of Canadians. There will be no honeymoon for Vogue’s new star.

Unlike his father, who was a left wing thinker associated with Cité Libre, Justin is thought to be a shallow man, more interested in being photographed and gaining popularity than furthering an agenda. Most of his opponents, although they may deny it, thought that once ensconced in his luxurious mansion of Sussex Drive, he would not do much harm, and would be more inclined to live a socialite life rather than take actual decisions. If only they had been right!

THINKING OF VOTING, EH?

by Rémi Tremblay

On August 2nd, Canadian Prime minister Stephen Harper launched the longest and therefore most expensive electoral campaign in Canadian history, one that will culminate on October 19th with Canucks voting for their MPs.

Canada lives under a parliamentary monarchy, a system imported from Great Britain. But unlike in Old Albion, the political parties running in the federal elections differ from those running for provincial or city elections. While non-mainstream parties can do well at local elections if they campaign on local issues, they find it almost impossible to make a breakthrough at the federal level because of the constituency-based electoral system. Because of this, we have no nationalist party like France's Front National or even the BNP. Although we are not trapped in a two-party system, like our Southern neighbours, only a few mainstream parties can hope to have MPs elected.

THOUGHTS ON DUGIN'S "EURASIAN MISSION"

Ivan Grozny: part of the Eurasian tradition.

by Rémi Tremblay

Count Nikolai Trubetzkoy first established the theory of Eurasianism, and is thus considered the founder of the movement. He was also a friend of Claude Lévi-Strauss, the famous French anthropologist, from whom Eurasianism drew its idea of a pluralistic world. This is the first and most important position of the Eurasian philosophy, which can also be formulated negatively as the rejection of Western universalism.

This universalism also had French roots, growing out of 18th-century Enlightenment thought, the effective imperialism that emerged through the military and technological dominance of the European powers, and the resulting Eurocentrism.

In addition to rejecting these aspects of the West, Eurasianism also rejects the hypocrisy of modern democracy, the ideology of "human rights," and consumerist materialism. To counter Western universalism, Eurasianism proposes a multipolar world that is modulated by a sense of social responsibility and traditionalism.

The ideas of Eurasianism have evolved into what Alexander Dugin terms Neo-Eurasianism and the Fourth Political Theory, the latter also the name of Dugin's best known book in English. Recently published by Arktos, Eurasian Mission is Dugin's most recent summation and update of his theories to appear in English. This allows us to consider his theories and outlook in some detail.
