Jamil Jivani: Clarence Thomas asks a question too many Canadians are afraid to
Justice Clarence Thomas is not known for being vocal when the U.S. Supreme Court hears oral arguments. He is typically reserved and quiet. But, during Monday’s arguments on the merits of affirmative action, Justice Thomas asked one of the most important questions facing Americans and Canadians alike.
What does “diversity” really mean?
ACCORDING to Fraser Nelson, Spectator editor and Telegraph columnist, we should celebrate Britain’s climb to the summit of the world’s melting pots. We have a Hindu Prime Minister, a Muslim Mayor of London and a Buddhist Home Secretary. Our Chancellor has a Chinese wife and Mohammed (and variants) is number one in the boys’ baby name league table, a position it has held for over a decade.
In some respects, he’s right. Britain is unquestionably a tolerant and welcoming country. It’s also nice to see Fraser Nelson challenge the myth that we’re a nation of racists and xenophobes. We have indeed greeted newcomers with warmth and cordiality. Furthermore, many arrivals have embraced our hospitality with enthusiasm and gratitude, as well as, through hard work and talent, contributing to the economic and cultural health of the nation.
A federal court in New York has charged seven Chinese nationals for harassing and coercing a U.S. resident to return to China as part of Beijing’s international extralegal repatriation campaign known as Operation Fox Hunt.
The indictment, recently unsealed by a Brooklyn, N.Y. court, shows that similar operations were carried out on Canadian soil.
I’m beginning to suspect that our armed forces recruiting failure is due to Canada no longer being viewed as a nation, let alone one worth defending. Thanks Liberals.
… The referendum — unofficial and binding on no one — has stirred up passions that are fuelling a spate of anti-Hindu hate incidents here in Canada, charges Manish, India’s acting high commissioner, who goes by just one name.
Attention has focused on the recent defacing of a Hindu temple in Toronto and a nearby statue of Mahatma Gandhi with pro-independence graffiti.
“They’re using Canadian territory for activities which could jeopardize India’s security and interests,” Manish said in an interview. “If the (Canadian) government can do something about (the referendum) and try to prevent it, that would be useful because it only creates a bad atmosphere and incites violence against India and Indians.”
Nothing says Multiculturalism like imported ethnic conflicts and race wars!
The latest release of 2021 census data shows immigrants make up nearly a quarter of all people in Canada, and are projected to represent a third of people in the country by 2041.
Immigrants now make up the largest portion of the population since Confederation, with more than 8.3 million people in the country who were, or had ever been, a landed immigrant or permanent resident.
Statistics Canada says immigration is the main driver of population growth, in part because of the aging population and low fertility rates in the country.

Canadian protesters against oppression in Iran were nearly car-rammed in Toronto on Sunday by an activist who had recently achieved notoriety for dressing as an orthodox Jew and harassing a Holocaust survivor about her position on the Israel-Palestinian conflict.
Garbage from what appears to be used fireworks litters the ground where the stand-off took place. One group can be seen waving Indian flags, while the other held banners supporting the Khalistan referendum movement.

Boy the media is being awfully quiet about this…
Two Mississauga Arabic-Language Newspaper Editors Praise Dead Palestinian Terrorist
On the evening of October 8, 2022, Noa Lazar was overseeing an Israeli security checkpoint in eastern Jerusalem when a vehicle sped towards her. Out of the car jumped Uday Tamimi, a 22-year-old Palestinian man, who shot Lazar to death before fleeing the scene. A 30-year-old security guard was also critically injured in the attack, but survived.
Lazar was only 18-years-old when she was murdered by Tamimi. Immediately afterwards, Israeli forces began a manhunt to identify and track down Tamimi. For more than 10 days, they searched for him, until he re-appeared on October 19, when he committed another attack, this time shooting at security guards near the Israeli town of Maaleh Adumim.

“What America looks like”
A curious statistic from the survey of broadcasting representation.
Broadcast network programs had higher percentages of black female (28%) and Latina (7%) characters in major roles than programs on streaming services (21% and 3%, respectively). Streaming programs included a higher percentage of Asian and Asian American females than those on the broadcast networks (15% vs. 10%).
White people make up 57% of the country, Latinos 18.7%, black people 12% and Asians 6%.
As the Nury Martinez tape shows, many aren’t seeking a post-racial mecca
A secret hour-long recording of an October 2021 meeting of Los Angeles city politicos surfaced last week, as California’s midterm election ballots arrived in the mail. Taking the city and nation by storm, the leaked audio exposed the cutthroat racial politics and deceit of elected officials who pretend to be tribunes of diversity.
The Prime Minister’s Office knew about an anti-racism consultant’s derogatory tweets about “Jewish white supremacists” a month before the government cancelled a $133,000 contract in which he played a key role.
The consultant, Laith Marouf, is an expert for the Community Media Advocacy Centre (CMAC), a non-profit that was awarded the contract earlier this year. Mr. Marouf’s tweets also derided francophones and Black and Indigenous public figures.
Last month, two men went to the movies. Dressed in black hoodies and face masks, they entered a Landmark Cinemas theatre in Kitchener, Ont., and walked into an empty auditorium. One of them slashed the movie screen and sprayed a noxious substance into the air before fleeing. The theatre had been slated to play Palthu Janwar, a Malayalam-language film.
Like America, Canada is a nation comprised of people from around the world. And like America—perhaps even more than America—Canada is wearing racial blindfolds that make the government incapable of seeing that, just as “people of color” represent many different races, lands, and cultures, the same is true for “pale faced” people. This blindness erases Canada’s rich ethnic history.
As an anthropologist who spent 17 years living and working in Sub-Saharan Africa, where Black lives really matter and where everyone belongs to a tribe with which they identify, it pains me that I must explain to fellow Canadians (and Americans) that pale-faced people are not all the same. Are they just one thing — that is, one ethnic group in contrast to the myriad of “others”? No.
OTTAWA — Global Affairs Canada committed “gross mismanagement” when it not only failed to punish an executive it knew was mistreating and humiliating employees, but eventually promoted her despite her continued abuse, according to a new watchdog report.
We pay for this.
