“Diversity”

How the police lost control of London

The Met is ill-suited to a divided society

Even in supposedly secular and tolerant London, the safety of Jews has recently come to seem an unnervingly fragile thing. Last week, a London police officer was filmed threatening to arrest a man for being “openly Jewish”, and there have been calls for the Met chief Mark Rowley to resign following his force’s litany of failures on this front.

But is it fair to castigate the police? A closer look at the Met’s history reveals that the officer in question was less displaying prejudice, than applying principles the force has upheld since its formation in 1829. The decisions taken by the Met officer in the controversial clip appear, in this context, less evidence of Met bias or leadership failure, than the logical consequences of shifts in the capital for which the Met bears no responsibility, and the way these changes mesh with the Met’s longstanding model of policing.

Peel police chief met Sri Lankan officer a court says ‘participated’ in torture

The head of one of Canada’s largest police forces met with a Sri Lankan inspector general of police who two weeks earlier had been found by the South Asian country’s highest court to have “participated in the torture” of an arrested man.

Photos published by Sri Lankan media, including the Ceylon Today, an English-language daily newspaper, show Peel Regional Police Chief Nishan Duraiappah in uniform posing alongside senior Sri Lankan officers on Dec. 29, 2023 at police headquarters in the capital Colombo – a visit a Peel police spokesperson says Global Affairs Canada and the RCMP had been made aware of ahead of time.

Jamie Sarkonak: Liberals, again, use federal budget to advance demographic favoritism

Public spending should support the general public. But in Budget 2024, released Tuesday, the Liberals continued to opt for identity-based programs narrowly targeted to demographics of preference.

On affirmative action, the budget heralded the expansion of the Employment Equity Act, which currently sets employment “targets” for women, visible minorities, Indigenous people and the disabled in the federal public sector. In the fall, Labour Minister Seamus O’Regan announced that Black people and LGBT people will each get their own target (quota), so this isn’t new, but we can still expect it coming down the pipeline.

No evidence diverse management teams boost profits, says study … McKinsey studies based on data that cannot be replicated

Hiring more ethnically diverse management teams does not boost profits, new research has claimed, casting counts on previous studies.

A study in Econ Journal Watch says that previous studies by the consultancy firm McKinsey claiming that racial diversity “is a business imperative that drives real business results” are based on data that cannot be replicated.

It noted that four McKinsey reports between 2015 and 2023 claimed to find statistically significant relationships between the diversity of senior staff in major listed companies and earnings.

Diversity, Not Multiculturalism, Is the Problem

In the aftermath of the atrocities of October 7, the resulting war between Israel and Hamas, and the volatile fallout across Western countries with supposedly enriching immigrant populations, there has been a nervous re-evaluation of ‘multiculturalism’ as a state-sponsored article of faith.

Is this the best we can do? Angela Merkel and David Cameron, hardly darlings of the dissident Right, were admitting the failures of multiculturalism as long ago as the early to mid-2010s. Are we supposed to be impressed that politicians like Suella Braverman have managed to twig that this still holds true? There is plenty of room, as well as every warrant, for Braverman to go further, particularly given the widespread contempt in which she is already held by race communists and other loons who will jeer if the woman so much as brushes her teeth in the morning.

Diversity Alert: Playing the Race Card For Real Estate Gain

Couple fights to rid Toronto home of heritage status

A couple in an affluent midtown Toronto neighbourhood is asking the city to remove the heritage designation from their century home because they say the original owner was racist.

The two-and-a-half storey, 9,000-square foot house in the Yonge and St. Clair area, was built in 1906 for Stapleton Pitt Caldecott, a former Toronto Board of Trade president who was opposed to immigration, a University of Toronto historian says.

… This $5-million house on Woodlawn Avenue West, in the Yonge and St. Clair area, was commissioned by Stapleton Caldecott in 1906, a man who some believe held anti-immigrant views. He died there the following year.

OMG he was opposed to immigration… “Some believe”. Next.

The couple says they were unaware of the home’s heritage designation. That seems highly unlikely.

No connection to Canada obviously. Ungrateful or what?

You Can’t Fire Only the White Guys

Now showing more anti white bullshit

Illegal discrimination is still illegal discrimination even if a corporate HR department wraps it in the language of equity and inclusion. As a reminder of this legal reality, the C-Suite might want to review a recent opinion by a federal appeals court, upholding a jury verdict for a hospital executive who says he was fired merely for being a white male amid a workforce diversity push.

‘Like a cartel:’ Shootings point to turf war over rights to screen South Indian films

MISSISSAUGA, Ont. – The day Thomas Sajan was expecting to see a South Indian action epic at a theatre in British Columbia, a spate of shootings thousands of kilometres away disrupted his plans.

Sajan, a self-described South Indian film fanatic, said he had been waiting months to see Malaikottai Vaaliban, a blockbuster Malayalam-language film about an aging warrior who reigns over a vast desert.

Hours before the scheduled showtimein late January, Cineplex sent a message saying the screening had been cancelled and the company would be issuing a refund “due to circumstances outside our control.”

Mob of 300 children rampage through shopping centre

Hundreds of schoolchildren charged through a shopping centre with some tussling with security guards, before police issued a dispersal order.

The mob of youngsters, involved in what police called “an incident of anti-social behaviour” in Milton Keynes on Thursday afternoon, was caught in video footage shared online.

A security guard can be seen grabbing a boy’s backpack and pulling him to the ground in a clip shared widely on social media.

Canadian Jews are once again in the crosshairs of cancel culture

Like other western countries, Canada isn’t immune to “cancel culture,” a disturbing sign of the times. The term itself may be contemporary but cancel culture’s unholy mix of defamation, intimidation and threats is anything but new. Variations on this practice date back millennia, with Jews often the prime target.

Amid rampant antisemitism and the current tyranny of cancel culture run amok, the anti-Israel camp is leading the charge in trying to silence the voices of Jews. Sadly, they’re succeeding far too often as organizations and institutions capitulate to pressure from those seeking to cancel Jews.

Some kinds of hate are less worthy than others in Canada. Our schools, governments and even human rights commissions openly abuse Whites,  both children and adults. Only rarely does it merit attention from the media as the Bilkszto case did. Typically there are no repercussions for discriminating against Whites, the DEI huckster in the Bilkszto case is still in business.

How the ‘Diversity’ Myth Is Consuming the Canadian Literary Scene

Comedy fans of a certain age may recall the “Monty Python’s Flying Circus” sketch about the legendary highwayman Dennis Moore, a deranged Robin Hood who steals so much from the rich to the give to the poor that he ends up stealing from the poor to give to the rich. “Blimey,” Dennis declares upon realizing the conundrum, “this redistribution of wealth is trickier than I thought.”

The Canadian literary world—long ago the domain of Robertson Davies, Pierre Berton, and Mordecai Richler—may be reaching its own Dennis Moore point, as indicated by a never-ending parade of awards, scholarships, mentorships, festivals, and publishing opportunities directed at writers who are black, indigenous, or people of colour (BIPOC), all intended to help “under-represented” or “marginalized” writers.

Barbara Kay: Is TikTok responsible for Gen Z’s hostility toward Israel and Jews?

Last week, with bipartisan support, the United States House of Representatives voted to force the sale of TikTok, the video-sharing platform owned by ByteDance, a company under the influence of the Chinese Communist Party, to non-Chinese owners, or face a ban in the U.S.

The loss of TikTok would have little to no impact on the lives of most mature Americans. But TikTok users are overwhelmingly young, and many are addicted to the platform for a spectrum of reasons — including, for many influencers and small businesses, their own financial benefit.

It is widely acknowledged that TikTok is a powerful force in shaping adolescent users’ self-perceptions and beliefs. The platform’s influence has been plausibly linked to devastating consequences for individuals, but also to the “ mass formation ” of unhealthy cultural trends.

Under the guise of “anti-racism” we have made the hatred of White children normal in our schools.

If applied to any other race or religious group the usual suspects would howl with righteous indignation.

Our school boards, governments, teacher’s unions, the corporate class and even our human rights commissions have deemed the hatred of White people to be publicly acceptable. 

To fight back serves only to affirm our racism and so hating White people has been institutionalized in Canada.

That same hate has been weaponized against Zionist Jews who have been declared “White” by the left.

Tik Tok certainly plays a role as all social media does but Gen Z is more likely acting out a Stockholm Syndrome scenario thanks to being subjected to “anti-racist” struggle sessions from elementary school through university.

For Muslim children the hatred of Israel, Jews and western civilization is bred in the bone and they need no help from Tik Tok or the left.

Welcome to Trudeau’s Canada.

The Case for Mass Immigration is Dead

‘Diversity’ and ‘multiculturalism’ have never been in such low water.

On Monday night, it became clear to a sizeable Westminster audience that the case for mass immigration is dead. The venue was the Emmanuel Centre, the occasion a public debate put on by Touchpoint Politics: “Is Immigration Good for Britain?” Moderated by The Spectator’s Katy Balls, anyone willing to cough up £20 or so was entitled to watch the comedian Konstantin Kisin and the political scientist Matthew Goodwin, both opposing the motion, go up against co-founder of Novara Media Aaron Bastani and Polly Toynbee of the Guardian.

Neither side said anything new, ground-breaking, or particularly radioactive. But while this created no hiccups so far as Kisin and Goodwin were concerned, for Bastani and Toynbee the lack of novelty was quite fatal.
