European Canadian Rights

European Canadian Rights refers to practices, traditions and customs that distinguish the unique culture of each White people in Canada that was practiced prior to 21st century non-White immigration. These are rights that European peoples of Canada hold as a result of long-standing ancestral use and occupancy of the land.

Reguarding the longstanding history of European Canadians, the Council of European Canadians had this to say:

The Québecois were a people created in the soil along the edges of the St. Lawrence in the 1600s. It is normal today to meet Québecois who can trace their North American lineage back more than 20 generations [...]

New France was a traditional, Christian, and authentically Canadien colony until the Cultural Revolution in the 1960s. The habitants, tenant farmers labouring for the seigneurs, enjoyed considerably more rights than their peasant counterparts in France, and had a good standard of living. They worked hard in the fields but had a varied diet consisting of cabbage, carrots, celery, beans, lettuce, and fresh bread and meat. Most houses owned their own oven for baking bread, cows which provided milk and butter, chickens for meat and eggs, and pigs. The nearby forests abounded in wild berries to harvest and wild animals to hunt. Some of the sons of the habitants felt the mysterious forests on the edge of their homesteads beckoning to them, and became the voyageurs, enterprising and risk-taking fur traders. Pierre Gaultier de Varennes, known as La Vérendrye, explored the interior of the continent, becoming the first European to reach the upper Missouri River. Two of his sons were the first Europeans to see the majestic Rocky Mountains [...]

The Acadians are another Euro-Canadian people born of the soil, founding the province Nova Scotia through their love of big families. Settling in Nova Scotia in the mid-1600s, then the maritime part of New France, they tended to marry in their early twenties and have about ten or eleven children. In 1686, the Acadians numbered about 800. By 1710, this had grown to 2000. Without any more French immigration, their population multiplied nearly 30 times between 1611 and 1755. In 1755, they had grown to 13,000 inhabitants! During the French and Indian War, the Acadians resolutely refused to give a pledge of loyalty to the British rulers who had conquered Acadia. From 1755-1762, most Acadians were expelled. In 1764, some 3,000 were allowed back to Nova Scotia, where they grew to 4,000 by 1800 through their high birth rates. In New Brunswick, a territory carved out of Nova Scotia in 1884, there was a population of 4,000 Acadians in the 1880s, a result of high birth rates rather than the return of more exiles.

The original Acadian settlers were not immigrants, but rather a people born in the soil of of Acadia with unique customs and significantly different speech patterns than the Québecois. They settled in a harsh environment, having to harvest salt from the salt marshes, clear forests, and build dykes to reclaim land from the Bay of Fundy’s tides. Despite all of this, they had a higher standard of living than the large majority of French peasants and a noble, independent spirit. Having survived the Acadian expulsion, their descendants number more than 11,000 in Nova Scotia and 25,000 in New Brunswick. The Acadians are alive and well, concentrated in the northeastern shore of New Brunswick (known as the Acadian Peninsula), Edmunston (NB), Clare County (Nova Scotia), Chéticamp in Cape Breton, the Evangeline region of Prince Edward Island and Îles de la Madeleine in Quebec. Many homes in Acadian communities are decorated with the red, white and blue Acadian flag [...]

Today’s historians project the modern diversity ideology into the past. Standard Canadian history textbooks read by university students today claim that the founders of Ontario and the Maritimes came from “many different ethnic backgrounds” and that the Loyalists were “quite a disparate group”. In reality, the Loyalists were thoroughly British in ethnicity and culture, and are better characterized as “internal migrants” since they moved from British colonies to territories claimed by Britain: Ontario, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Cape Breton and Prince Edward Island. They moved between regions within the British Empire rather than between countries. The Loyalists were long established British settlers born in the British Empire’s American colonies, not immigrants.
