Statistics Canada has gone woke and it’s affecting its data

Statistics Canada is tasked with collecting, collating and publishing accurate information about the Canadian experience. Things it shouldn’t do: hide information from the public and randomly distribute the data it collects. A recent Statistics Canada report does both.

In October, Statistics Canada released the results of a survey of the drinking habits of Canadians. “A snapshot of alcohol consumption levels in Canada” asked Canadians how much they had drunk in the previous seven days. According to the topline figure, not much.

Mark D’Souza: Ensuring TMU medical school doesn’t sink on her maiden voyage

With a year to go before its proposed launch, the shadow of the soft bigotry of TMU’s social justice-based medical school already hangs over us. A former specialist colleague reached out to tell me her patient just got a new family doctor who is Black, and he was worried if this doctor was competent or an affirmative action hire. She told him all current doctors have gone through the most stringent of examinations. But will her answer change in a few years? It feels like TMU’s medical school is the Titanic in harbour about to sail on its doomed maiden voyage.

‘Sorry I can’t understand your accent’ could be racial discrimination

Telling someone with a foreign accent you can’t understand them could be racial harassment, a senior tribunal judge has said.

Commenting on or criticising the way someone from another country or ethnic group speaks could breach employment law, Judge James Tayler said.

The senior circuit judge of the Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) made the ruling following a case about a university worker who sued when she received criticism over her “strong” Brazilian accent.

Jamie Sarkonak: Parks Canada celebrates a settler scalper, but slanders Sir John A.

The reason Joseph Broussard dit Beausoleil (1702-65) wasn’t commemorated with a Parks Canada plaque until last week might have something to do with his history of raiding and scalping British colonists.

Beausoleil, an Acadian born into the dying days of Acadia, didn’t take too kindly to British rule. The Brits took much of the territory in 1713, snapping up New Brunswick and Nova Scotia in the resolution of the War of the Spanish Succession. So, in adult life, Beausoleil did what he could to terrorize the new owners of the land.

Pronoun-Wielding Jaguar Boss Goes On Damage Control After Cringeworthy Woke Ad

Jaguar Managing Director Rawdon Glover is on damage control to end the week, appearing in an interview with the Financial Times after the iconic British sports car manufacturer decided to nuke its 90-year legacy with a cringe-worthy 30-second ad published on X.

Glover said the ad’s “intended message” had been lost in “a blaze of intolerance” on social media platforms and rejected the notion that the video was a “woke” statement.

“If we play in the same way that everybody else does, we’ll just get drowned out. So we shouldn’t turn up like an auto brand,” Glover said.

He should be out of a Job yesterday.

Navy to replace official Heart of Oak march with ‘more inclusive’ music

The Royal Canadian Navy plans to replace its official march with a new composition after deciding the lyrics, which celebrate British military victories in the colonial era and sing of men but not women, are disrespectful and outdated.

Heart of Oak, which is inherited from Britain and dates back to 1759, before Canada’s Confederation, is played at Royal Canadian Navy parades and mess dinners.

I’m going to practice my Chinese.

Bud Light’s Shane Gillis ad shows the progressive revolution is over

There’s something perfectly fitting about Shane Gillis appearing in Bud Light’s latest commercial. Here’s a football player-turned-comedian, cancelled by Saturday Night Live in 2019, now helping America’s most cancelled beer find its way back to cultural relevance. The ad isn’t just damage control for a brand still reeling from its disastrous, boycott-inducing partnership with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney — it’s corporate America’s way of declaring that the progressive revolution is officially over.

Jaguar teases ‘polarising’ new electric car amid rebrand backlash

Jaguar Air Conditioner

Jaguar has offered a glimpse of its “polarising” new electric car after attracting ridicule for its controversial rebrand.

The British carmaker has published a partial photo of the new model, which will be unveiled at Miami Art Week next month.

This looks to mirror the Bud Light fiasco, silly bubble women far removed from real life promoted above their skill set.

One wag commented – Nobody wants a car with Tranny issues.

John Robson: Woke, out-of-touch elite institutions need to cut the nonsense

Yet again we find ourselves scratching our heads, or C.S. Lewis’, over what they teach in schools. Like calling Remembrance Day a lousy time to wear a Canadian Forces uniform but a grand chance to celebrate Hamas, then stammering nonsense when criticized because they had no idea anyone might disagree with the sweeping decolonization of so-called Canada.

The real reason AOC purged her pronouns

She instinctively knows that working-class America detests the religion of woke.

RIP AOC’s pronouns. Yes, just like that, the kween of the bourgeois left, the doyenne of macchiato Marxism, has binned ‘she / her’ from her bio on X. Now people will just have to figure out for themselves that this person who was born a girl and who is widely celebrated as the youngest woman ever elected to Congress and who speaks frequently about her ‘self-worth as a woman’ is a she, not a he. Good luck, everyone.
