When even Prime Minister Justin Trudeau thinks your Pride event is too aggressively weird and disruptive, it’s probably time to reconsider. Instead, Ottawa’s Capital Pride doubled down on its berserk anti-Israeli views, because ideas have consequences and bad ideas have terrible ones.
It’s a win for Trudeau IMHO.
He gets to pretend he supports Israel but in fact he’s really appeasing the Muslims he covets who don’t approve of him prancing about at Pride Parades.
Engaging with minorities through group ‘leaders’ has perverted policing. Let’s not make that error again
On holiday during the recent riots, I got the over-lurid impression one tends to collect of events at home when abroad. Britain was burning, it seemed. The “far-Right” was taking over. Elon Musk said that civil war was “inevitable”.
Now I am back, it does not feel like that. It is true the trouble was widespread. Some of it – especially the attempt to set fire to an asylum hotel and the many assaults on police officers – was truly nasty.
Concerns are mounting over contractors falsely claiming indigenous status to secure federal contracts, a practice Ethics Commissioner Konrad von Finckenstein described as “of great concern” during testimony before the Commons public accounts committee.
Blacklock’s Reporter says the issue, which involves businesses misrepresenting their Indigenous identity to benefit from a federal set-aside program, is under scrutiny, though it falls outside von Finckenstein’s jurisdiction.
Canada is putting too many Black Canadians behind bars. Here is what we can do about it
With Black Americans making up only 12.2 per cent of the population, but 32 per cent of the prison population (2021-2022 figures), the high incarceration rates and racial disparities in the U.S. criminal justice system have drawn significant global attention, especially after the police murder of George Floyd.
Less known is the racial disparity in Canada, where Black Canadians account for only 3.5 per cent of the general population but represent 9.2 per cent of the prison population. This means Black Americans are incarcerated approximately 2.62 times their population representation and Black Canadians nearly identical at 2.63 times.
Blacks are incapable of making sound life choices according to this article so must be treated leniently when they commit a criminal act.
And you’re a racist of course.
Take a wander through r/Torontology for a slice of life.
Landmark report on ‘Canada’s Black Justice Strategy’ calls for major reforms, end to mandatory minimums
Pouring more resources into jobs, housing, health and education, eliminating mandatory minimum sentences and creating a national coordinating agency for Black people are among the major overhauls called for in a landmark report on Canada’s “Black Justice Strategy.”
If implemented, the report concludes, these measures and more could shrink the over-representation of Black and Indigenous people in jail — and create a “justice system that is truly just” for all.
This is just another identity politics scam in advance of the election.
It will be a quick release bonanza for career criminals who have been taught to have zero respect for the white man and his laws.
The following are essential components of a racially fair Canada according to a pair of federally appointed brainstormers: dedicated Black courts and federal departments, racial “decarceration” targets … and, possibly, reparations for slavery.
These measures, numbering 114 in total, were recommended to the federal government by a steering group at the end of June to shape the Liberal government’s forthcoming Black Justice Strategy. It’s an initiative that will be sure to promote disorder and advance the well-being of a select few, if the guiding material is any indication.
A national historic site reopens with a new look at John A. Macdonald’s legacy
“The hard truths are hard to avoid now at Bellevue House.
… In the aftermath of the confirmation, in 2021, of hundreds of unmarked graves discovered on the grounds of Canada’s residential schools, the city of Kingston was forced to reckon with how to present its once favourite son. “We needed to address the elephant in the room,” Hugh Ostrun, Superintendent of National Historic Sites in Eastern and Central Ontario, says. Concerned Parks Canada staff realized it was time to do more than just fix the roof and wiring. The pandemic gave them time to take stock.”
Our heritage is reduced to Marxist libels.
A city-backed plan to build a recreation centre for Toronto’s Somali community is facing an uncertain future, after fierce backlash from residents who have enlisted Premier Doug Ford in their fight to stop the project coming to their neighbourhood.
The group behind the proposal to construct a Somali Centre for Culture and Recreation (SCCR) in Etobicoke’s Buttonwood Park says it would be the culmination of a decades-long effort to carve out space for a Black community that has endured discrimination and lacks access to public amenities.
Nothing says identity politics ghetto like a tax payer funded Mohammedan centre.
Pickering city officials steeled themselves. They watched as a line of people filed into council chambers to support Lisa Robinson.
Since her election in October 2022, the rookie councillor has opposed Pride events and denounced Black History Month. But when councillors try to speak out against her, and rein in what they feel is a growing distraction, Robinson’s defenders get louder.
The mayor received an email from a resident, who suggested he could face a public hanging. Two councillors say they were followed home after meetings by people they believe are Robinson supporters.
An Ontario Conservative MP says the new Black Justice Strategy unveiled by the Liberals will make life worse for blacks and everyone else.
In a thread on Twitter (“X”), Durham MP Jamil Jivani urged Liberals to reject their party’s “troubling recommendations”, predicting such “radical policies…will lead to more crime, drugs and chaos.”
Sajjan instructed special forces to rescue Afghan Sikhs during fall of Kabul
Then-defence minister Harjit Sajjan instructed Canadian special forces to rescue about 225 Afghan Sikhs after the Taliban takeover in August, 2021, in an operation that three military sources say took resources away from getting Canadian citizens and Afghans linked to Canada on final evacuation flights out of Kabul.
Mr. Sajjan also relayed location information and other details about the Sikhs to the military as special operation forces worked to meet up with the group. The information was passed to him from a Canadian Sikh group that was in contact with these Afghan Sikhs.
Noah Noah says he has no positive memories of Karima Manji, the woman who used his mother, Kitty Noah, to obtain Inuit identities for her twin daughters so she could gain access to funds only available to Inuit beneficiaries.
“She was really awful,” Noah said of Manji during a CBC News interview in 2023 at his Iqaluit home.
A truly awful family who do not deserve to be in Canada.
For years, researchers, activists, community leaders have shown how Indigenous, Black and other racialized groups have been disproportionately affected by polluting industries.
Now, a new law will require the federal government to better track this injustice, and aim to correct it.
Bill C-226, sponsored by Green leader Elizabeth May, became law Thursday evening, nearly four years after similar legislation was first proposed in Parliament. The law will require the federal government to develop a national strategy on environmental racism within two years.
White people are never affected by pollution.
‘People are voting based on their social identity. It’s become them versus us,’ says Greg Lyle, a pollster and former Conservative party activist in the 1990s.
The quickest way to get a start in politics in Canada is to appeal to members of an affiliated ethnic or religious group to take over a nomination battle or leadership convention, specialists say.
It’s not a new political strategy, but more and more it’s becoming the technique for scrambling to the top in Canadian politics.
I am genuinely sorry for the Jewish kids subjected to such hate. However White kids have been smeared as racists in our schools for years simply for having White skin. Anti-white hate is institutionalized in Ontario thanks to our gutless identity politics playing politicians. https://t.co/041XHVBohb
