How to endorse a political party while maintaining plausible deniability

The old cliché “The Anglican Church is the Conservative Party at prayer” has devolved into “The Anglican Church is the Communist Party at a smudging session”.

The Anglican Church of Canada doesn’t want to appear to endorse any particular party in the forthcoming election since it doesn’t want to be exposed for what it is: an impotent purveyor of socialist agitprop.

Thus, the inevitable “letter from Anglican, Lutheran leaders about the 2021 federal election” doesn’t mention any political party by name. Instead, it provides links to sites promoting causes beloved by the outer fringes of the lunatic left.

So as a faithful Anglican, the ACoC won’t tell you who to vote for, but you’ll know anyway. Nudge nudge, wink wink.

A letter from Anglican, Lutheran leaders about the 2021 federal election

BY GENERAL SYNOD COMMUNICATIONS ON SEPTEMBER 7, 2021

On September 20, Canadians will vote in a federal election, electing Members of Parliament who will help shape the life of our country for the next four years. We give thanks for each candidate and their willingness to offer their vision, gifts and service for consideration for leadership in public life.

Over the last two years, many events have pushed for deeper reflection on the kind of Canada we desire.

Finding the remains of more than 1,300 Indigenous children who were buried in unmarked graves at the sites of several former residential schools is traumatic, heart-wrenching and profound. Many more sites have yet to be investigated. The call for healing, reconciliation and renewed relationships among Indigenous and non-Indigenous Peoples is a fundamental element of work for social and ecological justice in the Canadian context today.

The murder of George Floyd in particular, along with many other incidents in Canada and beyond, have called attention to anti-Black racism and other expressions of systemic racism. In March 2020, the Anglican Church of Canada’s Council of General Synod and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada’s National Church Council participated together in a session of anti-racism training. This was one step on a multi-faceted journey of working to dismantle racism and to promote diversity, equity and inclusion in all areas of life.

The recent report of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)  highlights the need to address the climate crisis. This election takes place during the Season of Creation, when we are invited to reflect on our relationships with Creation and our impact on our shared home. Indigenous wisdom and relationships with the land need to inform individual, community and societal choices for healthy relationship with the Earth.

  1. Plausible deniability was most operative on that most implausible of 2020 weekends which in The United States of America on Friday the 13th was declared an enemy inspired National Emergency; invoking Sunday, March 15 a Day of National Prayer to combat it; while in open-borders Canada, but for one Party in particular, the Nation’s democratic Chamber was to be suspended for two years, duly countered on Monday, March 16; then lawlessly Prorogued in August 2020; then its lawful supremacy challenged in June, 2021, by filing vs. its Speaker in Federal Court
    :that pending outcome to be overruled by a third Mandate!
    Such lawless implausibility finds its tacit complicity with the incumbent Federal Government in those Denominations now opting for the anti-WORD, anti-Canon law “local option” as “a Word for the Church”: not The WORD for The Church
    – include the schismatic PCC in that joint exercise.
    Be it State or Church, John Milton has the rights of it as set out in his ‘Reason of Church Government’:
    “he who holds himself in reverence and due esteem for the dignity of GOD’s image upon him, accounts himself both a fit person to do the noblest and godliest deeds, and much better worth than to deject and defile, with such debasement and pollution as Sin is, himself so highly +ransomed and ennobled to a new friendship and filial relationship with GOD.”

    • In his studied absence as Prime Minister from the October 1, 2019 Federal leaders’ Munk Debates on foreign policy, none other offered, the Debate Commission has designated the Federal leaders’ debate on foreign policy for the September 8, 2021, to be in French only;
      this ought to be debated in both official languages…one of which is not Mandarin.

      • ‘Rebel News’ upheld in Federal Court today granted freedom to attend the Federal Debates; counter to the Liberal hand-picked Debates Commission’s opposition to them – also in 2019.

        • ‘Rebel News’ all along, and better late than never ‘The National Post’ today, has belled the foreign policy PLA/CCP cat: Canada exempted from AUKUS because its treasonous PM countered Canada’s Military high command re. Wuhan Games of October 2019 with PLA on Canadian soil twice under Trudeau’s perfidious watch.
          Hence his Regimes full on assault vs. Canada’s Military:Norman, Vance, MacDonald, Fortin….
          Past time for a changing of The PM’s Red Guard for a patriotic, trustworthy, Canada first PM.

          • Conservative Leader Erin OToole disclosed on Saturday, September 19, 2021 CSIS warned Trudeau NOT to ship viruses from Winnipeg lab with CCP Scientist to Wuhan Lab:
            Trudeau ignored this National security waning; hence his taking the Speaker of The House of Commons to Court to cover this up in collusion with Public Health Canada..

              Prayers of thanks unto The LORD that the former Incumbent Regime did not secure the majority they sought in order to wield absolute power:
              yet, in the history of our Nation, this is the first time that another Nation made public its threat that the PM be returned to Office, or else;;
              reference here is not to Hillary Clinton,, Barack Obama, or Bernie Sanders with their Globalist-Marxist ideology and practice, as meddling and offensive as that was.
              The Globalist-Marxist Red 905 duly delivered on the threat because with them “the enemy is us”.

              • “As long ago as 1928 the Jerusalem Conference of International Missionary Council concluded that the greatest obstacle to the Christian Mission in the world was the growing Secularism. It is in this soil that Communism has flourished:
                it is to be understood as part of the Socialism of our time. Religion, according to Marx, Lenin and Stalin is “the opiate of the people.”
                The Church of Scotland’s 1950 Report, ‘The Challenge of Communism’..
                In this vein of continued truth unfolding as it ought (or not),’National Post’ Rex Murhphy’s assessment of the Election as “pointless” is way wide of the mark:
                the very mark the PM identified as
                the “most pivotal” Election “since 1945”:1949.

                • Nor does N’P Fr. Raymond de Souza’s
                  S.J., improve upon it;
                  ‘OToole Sacrifices ethinic and religious minorities in Quebec’: this, from the S.J. Pontificate which aligned its political fortunes with CCP on September 22, 2018; and our SJ trained PM just as aligned with them re. the House of Commons vote February 2021 re. human rights violations in PRC:MIA; as well as on Bills 96 n 21 in Quebec.
                  The Conservative Party was not aligned; nor will be..

                • The Report also observes “Communism also provides an authoritarian system of belief and action..free speech…decided by the hierarchy…Communists who become Catholics…where “spiritual democracy” (ie of Protestantism) is historically weak. There is no record of ANY Country adopting a Communist government as a result of a free vote…they have seized power by one means or other…seizure of power from a reactionary government denying the normal democratic method of peaceful change, ie China …or overturning of a constitutional regime, allowing free expression of the people’s will, ie Czechoslovakia” p,47
                  With the SJ-Vatican/PRC aligned RC President of the USA and a SJ-Vatican/PRC PM in Canada, hard choices await both Nations;
                  and any true Christians among them..

      “Never giving up til we have found everyone…”
      Son of one of the + First Responders, New York

      This is the Judaeo-Christian ethic set down in its Holy Scripture, most applicable for our troubled, tragic times in
      + Isaiah 56 Yad VaShem
      “Thus saith The LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice:for My Salvation is near to come, and My Righteousness to be revealed…
      Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it…
      Even unto them will I give in Mine House and within My walls a place and a name…an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.” Amen.
