Hon. Prime Minister and Parliamentarians: I was born, raised and partially educated in 'Youngson Abad, Scotland Pakistan. I chose not to make Pakistan my country due to its religious differences. I don't think anyone should object to my choice I made. To all those who accept it, I thank and those who have problem - hum, I am sorry, I cannot help you. If I ever have to come to that part of the continent, I will come as a leader of a nation neglected by its current rulers. By the way, these rulers got what is now their Bread & Butter - was secured by Mr. S. P. Singha, a Christian who happens to be a Speaker of the Punjab Parliament and his 4 Christian MPs who voted to divide than Punjab of India in 1947 after the British government bribed them to vote in favor of Muslim League which was for Pakistan. In early sixties to mid-sixties Mr. Samuel Burke from Martin Pur #371 - who was an Ambassador of Pakistan to Canada negotiated purchase of Nuclear Reactors from Canada to Pakistan resulting in giving Pakistan a status as a Nuclear Power on the world stage. In nutshell, Pakistan should give members of the Christian Nation their due right to be an equal partner which is long overdue. When it came to me to make a choice I voted myself to come to Canada due to my Scottish roots. Neither Canadian Govt. nor Pakistani government spent a single penny on my education. I on the other hand served the people and Govt. of Canada as an officer for almost 30 years which I am very proud of and now loving every moment of my retirement. I continue to serve by volunteering my time for many organizations when needed which I call a blessing. Our 3 Canadian born children are doing fine and we enjoy their company along with 6 grandchildren all located in Ontario. I believe that my coming to Canada was for a reason - which I yet have to find out. Raymond Durrani Political Strategist (Power and Influence in Canadian Politics)
