Really, Natural Selection? Wouldn’t such a view include the canadian chidren? The people on the street? Should old people have pension? Should people have Home Care Services? Should there even be hospitals? In other countries than Canada, they lack the social services that you enjoy. Without support from society in Canada many people would suffer, die and more children would in the end be up for adoption. I don’t think you wan’t the society to be run by Natural Selection. That’s is not how we do things. That’s not how we strive for a utopian society.
I don’t see that the children of the people in africa are responsible for their own situation, neither are most of their biological parents. The sitation for people in the 70’s Chile, Sudanes south and Darfur, Falun Gong followers, parents who die of AIDS, the little girls and boys kidnapped and sold into sex slave trafficking. The list is long from A-Z. They are all to be written off, as natural selection you say, due to ethnicity and nationality.
These things are not an aspect of survival of the fittest. They are victims of arrogance, violence and neglect. Your nationalist approach of every man for himself is not very attractive. Do you think that people should only be allowed to adopt foreign children if there are no natural born Canadian available, or should it be banned all together? I think there are more important issues to adress in the world than restricting giving certain orphanes a home with loving parents, with preference to others. Infants don’t have a nationality, religion or a set of beliefs. They are helpless and innocent.
