And we are good with that ? We need to balance the numbers of certain races in all employment opportunities because why ? looks good in school photos... here is an bad idea , why do we not hire the best qualified person for the job, regardless of race , creed , or religion what happened to that concept ?....Here is another idea take those teachers who can not pass the math test and pull them from school and put them in math class to bring their math skills where they should be... I know that would be to hard...it would make more sense, "everyone gets a trophy", whats next university history professors don't need degrees in history because some races find it to hard...pilots don't need pilot training to fly, you get the point. This type of behavior needs to be called out on every occasion, it is racist, unfair, and plays into the woke play book.

? OK MH, let's force all of our football teams to consist of 5% black players, 17% asian, etc. Sound good? And then we can just squeeze people into teaching jobs even though they're unqualified. While we're at it, let's abolish the word "merit" and just use "diversity hire" in it's place from now on. On the bright side, making a resume will be easy. Q1: Identify your skin colour on the chart to the right. Q2: Identify your gender from one of the 53 options on the right, OR SELECT OTHER! Honest to god Trudeau, we didn't mean to slight you by not including your gender on this form. I was told that there were only 53 but I was like, "yeah right", but they insisted, so I only put 53 there. IMO there should be like, 60. Or 70. All of the cool ones are like, 45 and over. Q3: Identify the spots on the doll where conservatives hurt you.

"Well how can Trudeau be 'lying' if most economists agree with him? Are they lying also? " - Michael I don't think any economist worth their salt will say that inflation is a direct consequence of Covid. Obviously Covid has been a driver of inflation, but to pretend that all inflation is a direct result of Covid is absurd. We had inflation long before Covid. The task of the Bank of Canada is to keep inflation around 2%. Completely non covid related. There are numerous drivers of inflation other than Covid, e.g. gas prices, the carbon tax (which I'm not arguing against), the housing bubble, inflation targets set by the bank of Canada, printing money to finance the government's wild expenditures and poor fiscal governance, the effects of globalization on capital etc., etc.. Pretending that inflation is a direct consequence of Covid is a lie and is an insult to the public's intelligence.

What I tell my 16 year old who has a fancy for socialism. "Socialism doesn't describe how the money is made, only how to distribute it"

Nonsense statement Michael. If you can't do rudimentary math or read . . . . what do you have?

Let me correct you on that one. https://www.otffeo.on.ca/en/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/12/2021-12-16-OTCC-v-Ontario-FINAL-signed-by-all.pdf

I'm done with with all this like anyone. I'm encouraged by the early Hospitalization data with Omicron. Oh wait, you don't want to have a substantive COVID debate, you just want to call people sheeple. Gotcha!!!

Still not safe.

The key word “direct” consequence. It’s not a direct consequence, but the effect of bad choices we have all made, or been ordered to do by dunderheads like him.

Often lost in these stories is the fact that a plurality of Americans do not identify as Democrat or Republican, and far fewer have active party membership. Many Americans don't even bother to vote in elections. https://news.gallup.com/poll/15370/party-affiliation.aspx

hardly I don't demand you use any word I just call it like I see it while you indulge in wishful thinking

QOC,most, not all, complaints about academia are trumped up publicity stunts.

Because "out of the abundance of caution" and "the models may show". Your daily oracle for daily measures, restrictions and sanctions. Enjoy your new normal! (and "for as long as necessary")

Why is it even a question. Canadians are socialists hands down no argument. The 5 parties are all left of centre. Green, NDP, Bloc and the Liberals are all socialist parties.

Someone told me that Trudeau and crowd are going to allow 5 - 12 year olds to get vaccinations without parental consent.

Yup a stranger I met at the post office reminded me that these face diapers don't work, that we were told 2 weeks to flatten the curve, and now it's the end of year 2! Funny that is the same breath health officials tell us Omicron is less deadly than the cold, that we need to be running for the hills with fear.

I also wish everyone the best for the holiday season. For conservatives, the best of health and good times with family and friends, and for liberals, the best emotional support animals and conversion therapy experts possible. ❤️ That's the actual size of my heart.

There are multiple points. First off, the anti-racist/white guilt movement has gone too extreme. Even judges let go of common sense and their sense of judgement for ideology. The fact that math tests are deemed discriminatory is preposterous, they are math equations. There is no discrimination in rating a math exam. Discrepancies between groups of people are not caused in that case by racism. The verdict is simply the reflection of an ideology -wokeness- that thinks that every discrepancy between certain groups of people is proof of a privilege, or discrimination. Also, there is the fact that there is a crowd out there in English Canada who thinks badly about everything Québec does for maintaining its identity, beit from Bill 101 to 96 to the controversy about Bill 21, it seems to always have someone in Canada crying tears because muh multiculturalism wasn't respected to your extent. You know, if I think we went too far with Bill 21 with the teachers that I think should be exempted, I think Ontario goes too far in the other direction with this judgement. Lastly I think it is good that we focus on academic freedom in Québec at least. The quality of social/human sciences lay there. It is not a coincidence we have so many Prime Ministers of Canada who come from Québec. We have excellent academic institutions such as Udem, Laval, McGill among others for only 8 million inhabitants and protecting them from mobs is going to be a good bet for the future.

Branch Covidians are hilarious. How do you reason with these people?

Why should I care if government takes away your property ? If there's a good enough reason, they should be able to take it as far as I'm concerned.
