France and the Elections<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n

This will be a short but\u00a0bitter\u00a0rant. As a Canadian residing between Paris, France and Canada, I have always been puzzled by what the French often dabble in Politically. After being brutally occupied by the Nazi regime for over four years from 1940 till 1944, one might think that the last things they would consider would be to vote for what for all intent and purpose is another NAZI regime dressed up in sheep clothing.<\/p>\n

Well, I am afraid not. A very high percentage of the French\u00a0populous\u00a0are again considering voting extreme right in the next up and coming presidential\u00a0elections. Our dubious extreme right wing friend, Marine Le Pen again is showing her true colors after attending the extreme right wing, white supremest anti-Semitic Austrian politicians FP\u00d6\u00a0Ball in Vienna Austria, where she was applauded uproariously by those attending.<\/p>\n

If an election was held today, Marine Le Pen would come in third or perhaps second after Hollande the Socialist candidate. That again shines a very bad light on the French\u00a0psyche\u00a0at large and is a major disappointment to this Canadian residing in France. I am sure that those on the extreme right of the fence might be thinking, “…If you don’t like it, go back to Canada…” Well as time passes, I am seriously considering the possibility. I can now understand why over the last \u00a0few \u00a0years over 50,000 French Nationals immigrated to Canada and in the same time frame little more \u00a0than 1000 Canadians\u00a0immigrated\u00a0to France. Hmmm, that does speak loudly indeed. It is reminiscent of the huge influx of\u00a0immigrants\u00a0flooding in to the USA, Canada and other less hostile countries prior to and during the Nazi regimes reign of terror.<\/p>\n

I am afraid the writing may already be on the Wall… Am I Disappointed?\u00a0No… I am ANGRY!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
