Glad to see Hugh mention how Ellen Fairclough deracialized our immigration system in the Diefenbaker government. Something most Conservatives today don't seem to know as they rail about Pierre Trudeau.

Next they can learn their history and realize how it was Conservatives (particularly from the Ukrainian-Canadian community like Conservative Senator Paul Yuzyk ) who were a political force instrumental in the development of multiculturalism as official government policy. Indeed, the late senator is often referred to as the 'father of multiculturalism'.  Albeit, the charge was led against Diefenbaker's preferences.
