Excerpt:
Forty years ago, in October 1971, Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau introduced multiculturalism as an official policy for Canada.
Seventeen years later, Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and the Progressive Conservatives turned Trudeau's policy into the Multiculturalism Act of 1988.
In other words, it was not merely Trudeau but Canada's political elite, supported by the intellectual and media elites of the country, who adopted without much questioning a policy that was, at best, dubious and deeply flawed as the law of the land.
