The fact you people even capitalize the word now speaks volumes about how desperate you are to change the channel back to where it was. That's conservatism for you....driving with your gaze fixed wistfully on the rear view mirror. Trump's arrival when Trudeau is leaving is changing everything. PP's floundering in the face of the swiftly moving circumstances attending this says a lot about the most important skill set he's not bringing to the job he's applying for...thinking on the fly...adapting to things in the certain confident manner the circumstances call for. Mind you it shouldn't take a genius to put Trump in his place. Is PP still flogging the carbon tax horse that died under him? Listen to carney? He started it again.lol Quote Toronto, like a roach motel in the middle of a pretty living room.

And what you hear in your own head is the numerous voices whom I've told you are not your friends. A simple glance around the world can see that everybody's fed up with the woke. In fact speaking of trump the only reason that the US has trump in power right now is because people are sick of the woke. People have had enough. The sick of people like you demanding that we have free drugs that are turned over to the criminals to sell to our children all will you demand that anyone who doesn't agree with you is a terrible person. The work is broke. And now you're just a joke. Quote

But keep asking questions like this to detract you from the fact that most people are fed up with it. You probably think you are being a good debater, haha. Yes, I know it means being aware of systemic injustices. Why are you fed up with people being aware of systemic injustice? Isn’t that their right in a free society? Quote

Army Guy Posted February 8 Report Posted February 8 18 hours ago, eyeball said: But you say it's from the liberal parties.. So like which parties and how many are you talking about? Or do you mean liberals partying? It seems you're just connecting a bunch of disparate partisan feelings and impressions of your own into something cogent. You think examples like this is what PP means when he talks about what's woke? You figure this is the winning formula will sway Canadians into remaining or going back to being comatose? Good luck with it. Hey, big falla, you asked for a picture of what they/ them looks like....i gave you one....And conservatives don't buy into the whole they/ them, ze/ zur what ever thats a liberal thing....This is what liberalism looks like...i did not invent it you guys created it and now we all have to live with it. 1 Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful.

So that's it - the image you provided is the gist of what PP will be basing his campaign on? When people ask what he means by woke this video is what people will be given? Good luck.

Instead, the strong implication is "I'm on the side of woke and I will fight to the death to ensure merit has no place in hiring, promotion, appointments, grants or anything else in this country!"

But that's not what it sounded like to me at all. It sounded like a stolid insistence on maintaining the Left side's fight in the culture wars. 1 Quote

Big problems need deep thinking, and collaboration with the public as well as experts. Slogans don't solve big problems. No, but they help win elections.

Why are you fed up with people being aware of systemic injustice? Isn’t that their right in a free society? In the context of the government, it means pretending every governmental institution is 'systemically racist', despite there being no evidence of this. It means tilting the playing field in favor of every group other than straight white males - tilting it more depending on how high on the hierarchy of victimhood various identity groups are, and allocating resources to them ahead of others, including hiring, promotions, awards and grants. As well as requiring all people and organizations bow to the same social justice view or face governmental punishment. It means giving preference in applications, be it for awards, grants, jobs, or university admission to people whose skin color is not white to somehow or other recognize this 'racism' even though the great majority of them were either not born in Canada, or are children of first-generation immigrants. This was and is a moronic policy in the US but at least they could claim they were trying to make it up to blacks for slavery, segregation, etc. There is no excuse here but the Left simply lifted the whole social justice framework from their progressive American counterparts and plunked it down here.

I am Groot Posted February 8 Report Posted February 8 (edited) On 2/5/2025 at 7:11 PM, Aristides said: Of course he never said any such thing. He said that while Americans engage in a war on woke, Canadians will continue to value the truth. Anyone got a problem with that? That is not what he said. He said "There is a fever gripping America. And while it rages, Canadians will continue to remain true to our values. While America engages in a war on woke, Canadians will continue to value inclusiveness. In other words, Canadian values involve 'inclusiveness'. And the problem with that word is that it is inextricably bound up in DEI and has become a statement in itself that means "We're going to go well out of our way to hire/promote/enroll/give grants and recognition to anyone other than straight white people. Screw merit. We make all decisions based on identity group membership." That is NOT a Canadian value. It is left LIBERAL value. It is an NDP value. It is also, btw, a sneer at Trump and his party. Is that really wise? If he intends being prime minister, is it a good idea to start by publicly sneering at a central part of their ideology? For what reason? Just to virtue signal?

You're believing propaganda. I don't think we can talk about this anymore. I work in corporate and I see a great benefit in the utter death of the old boys club. Managers that I work for in the 1980s would not be able to work in our environment today.

Ever. Sure, in the context of inciting class warfare. Remember that one of his main promises was to take more money from 'the rich' and give it to the middle class. Of course, he didn't actually take money from the rich but from the upper middle class. Quote
