The Verdict Is In: Non-Merit Based Hiring Has Diminished Quality at Canadian Universities

The Times Higher Education, widely regarded as among the world’s leading journals for reporting on higher education in the UK and worldwide, has released its yearly university rankings. Alarmingly, Canadian universities are experiencing a significant decline in their rankings. Over 40 percent of Canadian universities have dropped from their previous year’s positions, a trend that should urgently concern us all.

Phil Baty, the Times Higher Education chief global affairs officer, noted: “Canada has some of the world’s very best universities, with three in the top 50 and eight in the top 200. However, the continued fall of a significant number of Canadian universities is a cause for concern.”

Is Steve Sailer re-entering the conservative mainstream?

A few blocks from the US Capitol, Union Station has for years been a hotspot for homeless encampments. The contrast between the enormous Beaux-Arts train station and the men sleeping beneath its awnings has been the punchline of many a joke about elite hypocrisy. The men and women whose policy decisions are blamed for such public disorder consider it unkind, even gauche, to discuss the problem.

It’s here that one of America’s most controversial writers, Steve Sailer, spoke Thursday evening, the latest stop on his long journey back toward the conservative mainstream.

Self-Flagellants Of The Political & Chattering Class Express Horror At A White Lives Matter Sign In Ontario!

Mayor ‘denounces hate’ as debate around white lives matter sign intensifies

A controversial sign(opens in a new tab) has temporarily moved to a neighbour’s lawn just outside of Goderich, but the message on it, ‘White Lives Matter,’ remains the same.

“Well, it’s not a nice sign to see. It is not in the town, but it’s still in the neighboring municipality, so people are either leaving town or coming to the cottage, and that’s something that they’re seeing on Highway 21. And, you know, it shouldn’t be a reflection of our town, but unfortunately, it’s being perceived as a reflection of our town,” said Goderich Mayor Trevor Bazinet.


The sign is not hateful and is controversial only to preening self flagellants and DEI Grifters.

The real crime here is the numb acceptance and propagation of anti-white racism by the media and political class. You really don’t hate them enough.

Science magazine promotes faulty race discrimination claim

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) is on the ropes these days, and it’s a big problem for institutions that have invested deeply in this belief system. One way to rescue the enterprise is to tout new scientific results which buttress the claim that minorities and women are discriminated against in academia. Ergo the need for affirmative action.


In the same vein …

Toyota Ditches Woke Corporate Policies

Toyota announced Thursday it will no longer sponsor LGBTQ parades and events and will no longer make efforts to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).

Toyota told employees it will no longer participate in the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index and other corporate surveys. Instead, it will “narrow our community activities to align with STEM education and workforce readiness,” the automaker explained in a memo to its 50,000 employees and 1,500 dealers.

If your company promotes DEI you are saying you hate me. That’s Fine I have a long memory.

Jordan Peterson: my message to the Jews

Beware your liberal values — those you see as allies are the vultures waiting for your demise, says author Jordan Peterson

… Wake up, my liberal Jewish friends. You simply cannot have your cake and eat it, too. Those you thought were your allies are the very vultures waiting hungrily for your carcasses to appear dead in the street — and we are perilously close to that, as I am sure you have become aware. If your community insists upon allying itself with the ideology that tears down success itself — that casts that success as exploitation, oppression and victimization — you will definitely be the first heads on the chopping block. As you have been forever in the past, and are once again becoming now.


A longwinded way of saying “What the hell are you doing embracing DEI ?”

Evil has gained power from the weaponization of “anti-racism” and “social justice” it will if not stopped drive the innocent of the resistance, the naive and complicit onto the DEI train and to a familiar final stop.

Interesting comments on Twitter.

America’s Young Men Are Falling Even Further Behind

Men in their 20s and early 30s are much more likely than female peers to live with their parents, and many say they feel aimless and isolated

In Spanish, parents call it encaminado: making sure your children are on the path to an independent adulthood.

Out of Dan and Joana Moreno’s four grown kids, only their daughter is encaminada. She recently graduated from business school and got engaged. The Morenos’ three adult sons are still sleeping in their Miami childhood bedrooms. The younger two dropped out of college, and the oldest never went. All three are single. Their only work experience is with the family business.

“Something has gone amiss here,” says their father, Dan, who owns the repair chain Flamingo Appliance Service. “We love them, we love having them around, but that’s not how you build a life.”
The life trajectories of America’s sons and daughters are diverging.

Presented with a more-equal playing field, young women are seizing the opportunities in front of them, while young men are floundering. The phenomenon has developed over the past decade, but was supercharged by the pandemic, which derailed careers, schooling and isolated friends and families. The result has big implications for the economy.

It’s a mystery!

What do you see here?


I see the hands of foreign interference at work.

I also see the inevitable result of identity politics and a deliberately destructive immigration policy.

Canada is being reduced to warring factions within a balkanized society where foreign tribes have been encouraged to import their ethnic and religious conflicts.

Multiculturalism and diversity has taught them to reject integration with Canadian society.

Each tribe is provided official government victim status and encouraged to commit violence to assert that claim.

One tribe is never allowed to speak out though.

Canada and Canadians be damned is the motto of our ruling class.

Jamie Sarkonak: Ontario’s education curriculum is infected with Marxist nonsense

In a province that’s added a generous share of race communism and guilt politics to its classrooms and teacher training materials in the past decade, it shouldn’t be a surprise that some teachers are taking kids to protests.

Ontario’s curriculum includes teachings that promote Marxism, Critical Race Theory and the identification and shaming of “dominant” groups in society, all while denigrating colonialism — and white people, by proxy — as a simplistic force of evil.

Always the oppressor never the oppressed!

“Antisemitism is a form of colonial oppression historically used to marginalize and oppress Jewish people.” AND “Antisemitism continues to impact Jewish communities as a legacy of colonialism.”

Someone needs to ask B’nai Brith who they consider to be the Apex Oppressors in Canada given they have now declared themselves part of the DEI victimhood fellowship. It can’t be the Muslims they’re fellowship brethren. Maybe the Islamists have internalized the racism and antisemitism of the oppressor class! Yea that’s the ticket!

American conservative activist says defeating wokeism about following model

Rufo said what motivates politicians to act is a sense of urgency often emanating from media rooted in facts. To get politicians to act, he said he has generated media narratives.

By doing his investigations, he said he has been able to work news cycles. There is an adage in local television newsrooms that if it bleeds, it leads.

‘Anti-racism’ is tearing Britain apart

A failure to teach anti-racism in schools helped to cause the UK’s summer riots. That’s the opinion of Funmilola Stewart, a diversity and inclusion specialist, and one of 12 individuals recently appointed by Labour education secretary Bridget Phillipson to advise on a review of the English school curriculum.
