An editorial comment from MPP Peter Shurman on immigration and conservative values.

In Southern Ontario where politics often appear to demonstrate an inverse relationship to the rest of the country, it?s easy to get caught up in the mythology perpetuated by both Liberals and liberals suggesting that they alone turned on the tap that created the rush of immigrants to Canada; that they are the sole arbiters of all that is good and right about our land and its ability to absorb newcomers to these shores; and that they are the people whose philosophy best guarantees that all who come will be welcomed, treated equally, respected, and encouraged to retain every custom packed away in memory and travel trunk alike.
