‘Pierre Trudeau on Legal Equality’

It’s too bad that Trudeau Junior didn’t bother to read what his father wrote:

“It is no small matter to know whether we are going to live in a society in which personal rights, individual rights, take precedence over collective rights. It is no minor question of secondary importance to know whether we are going to live in a society in which all citizens are equal before the law and before the State itself…

“When each citizen is not equal to all other citizens in the state, we are faced with a dictatorship which arranges citizens in a hierarchy according to their beliefs…

“When collective rights take precedence over individual freedoms — as we see in countries where ideology shapes the collectivity; where race, ethnic origin, language and religion shape the collectivity — we see what can happen to the people who claim they live freely in such societies.”

–Pierre Trudeau

TRUDEAU AND GOSNELL’:

“We can go on treating the Indians as having a special status. We can go on adding bricks of discrimination around the ghetto in which they live and at the same time, perhaps, helping them preserve certain cultural traits and certain ancestral rights. Or we can say you’re at a crossroad — the time is now to decide whether the Indians will be a race apart in Canada or whether it will be Canadians of full status.”
