LOS ANGELES—A California woman sobbed as she learned that her friend’s 19-year-old son was kidnapped by the Hamas terrorist group in Israel.
The next day, on Oct. 12, as news of pro-Palestinian “Day of Resistance” rallies spread across the United States, the woman, who’s of Jewish heritage and asked not to be identified for fear of reprisal, broke the tragic news: Her friend’s son had been killed by the terrorists.
Canada has become a nation of diasporas. Rather than wrapping ourselves in a common flag, we huddle in our enclaves: Muslim, Sikh, Hindu, Jewish, Chinese, Black and the list goes on. Faith, color and country of origin divide the nation. Everyone is the “other,” and increasingly, the enemy. Violence and acts of hatred are multiplying in our streets.
When I used to write stuff like that I was a “Racist”
“We got a response from the Girl Guides that Girl Guides of Canada does not allow them to be part of a Christmas parade,” he told CTV News Ottawa.
It’s part of Girl Guides of Canada’s (GGC) wider diversity, equity and inclusion policy.
The doctrine of ‘anti-racism,’ now mandatory across the federal civil service, holds that Jews have “become white” to benefit from white supremacy
Hamas terrorists were still in the process of pulling Israeli civilians from their homes and executing them when McMaster University associate professor Ameil Joseph wrote on X.com that “postcolonial, anticolonial, and decolonial are not just words you heard in your DEI workshop.”
DEI refers to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, an ideology touting anti-racism and decolonization that has come to define massive swaths of Canadian academia in recent years. And Joseph was far from the only Canadian academic to excuse the mass-murder of more than 1,000 people using words from a DEI glossary.
The blatant antisemitism on college campuses has shocked millions of Americans over the past week and a half.
But not me.
I saw antisemitism on a weekly basis in my two years as a faculty “diversity, equity and inclusion” director.
In fact, I can safely say that toxic DEI ideology deliberately stokes hatred toward Israel and the Jewish people.
Toronto Police have all eyes on any hate directed toward the Jewish community right now but did not expect that would include people from within their own ranks.
The police service has been forced to investigate two of its own officers for potential hate material spread on social media.
DEI in action!
Three pretty unnerving things have happened within the past week: Target cited crime and safety as reasons for closing another nine locations, a congressman was carjacked at gunpoint, and a Philadelphia-based journalist was murdered in his home.
Welcome to the United States of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. We hope you enjoy your stay!
At Humber College, they actually have an employee program designed to help people with the “unlearning” of their “white skin privilege” and “white supremacy.”
You read it right. Their last meeting was on Thursday.
A leading researcher has found that ‘DEI’ training actually encourages racial resentment.
Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) training simply doesn’t work. This is the startling verdict recently reached not by opponents of diversity training, but by Mahzarin Banaji, a world-renowned pioneer of research into so-called implicit bias. Writing in the Wall Street Journal, Banaji argues that ‘the typical DEI training doesn’t educate people about bias and may even do harm’.
Senior officer pleads guilty in Toronto police promotion cheating scandal
“Thursday’s agreed statement of fact also revealed that, while examining the content of Clarke’s cellphones, investigators came across messages she’d sent to an unnamed civilian member of the service and an unnamed employee of the Toronto police board.
Those messages were “inconsistent with the service’s commitment to anti-racism,” according to the document. No further description of the messages was provided.”
She was racist on account she was fighting racism.
“Promoted in 2020, Clarke is the first Black female superintendent in Toronto police history and has talked about the importance of diversifying police ranks. Her supporters — who’ve regularly tuned in to watch the case online, a group attending in person Thursday — have questioned whether Clarke was unfairly targeted for actions possibly taken to address systemic equity issues; among the officers she provided the answers to were fellow racialized cops.
“We have been saying that, while the allegations may be true, we felt that there was more to it, and we should look at the circumstances that may have contributed to the actions,” said David Betty, president of the Jamaican Canadian Association, who watched Clarke’s plea.
I posted on this last night but Neocon pointed the way to the Star’s version of events which proved much worse.
The Very Hungry Caterpillar is now banned from the libraries belonging to one Ontario school board. It joins Anne Frank’s Diary of a Young Girl, the Hunger Games and Harry Potter books on the banned list.
‘Empty shelves with absolutely no books’: Students, parents question school board’s library weeding process
… “This year, I came into my school library and there are rows and rows of empty shelves with absolutely no books,” said Takata, who started Grade 10 last week.
She estimates more than 50 per cent of her school’s library books are gone.
In the spring, Takata says students were told by staff that “if the shelves look emptier right now it’s because we have to remove all books [published] prior to 2008.”
Where it all leads …
A “welcome back” party is where all are welcome — except those of one particular race. That appears to be the case at an iconic college.

Canada’s progressive movement has embraced an extreme and regressive form of racial “justice”—an unhealthy fixation on race that has prompted controversial, race-based hiring on university campuses. While “anti-racist” activists have been gaining ideological ground in Canada for some time now, the summer 2020 killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota, was a turning point, reflecting a tremendous surge in their influence.
In the wake of American protests that crossed the northern border, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau dropped a stink bomb into Canadian political discourse, declaring Canada to be a systemically racist country.
Ontario’s Progressive Conservative government has published a new anti-racism strategic plan that doubles down on “diversity, equity and inclusion” (DEI) initiatives and funding for left-wing organizations.
The plan, published on the Government of Ontario’s website on Aug. 24, commits millions of dollars towards anti-racist initiatives and highlights several recent anti-racist policies implemented by Ford’s PCs.
