Diversity is not a strength, it's a weakness. And why are the Laurentian Elites fixated on DEI?

Economic inequality has increased because there's too many people working overtime to keep the world safe for capitalists.

Economic inequality has increased in Canada because they've flooded our cities with migrants, which started driving up housing prices, and then many of the people here with money started driving up bids on homes even further to own investment properties and completely screwing over younger generations (and migrants) while all levels of government have done almost nothing to throttle this speculation because it helps the markets, property tax revenues, their banking buddies, and their own investment property portfolios.  These are all your capitalists.  Then COVID happened.

Canada has the most expensive housing market in the western world yet have the lowest population density LOL.

TD reported that about 30% of home sales in Canada are to investors.   That's 1/3.   One in every 3 homes sold on your street and in your condo building are going to speculators.

Every spare drop of people's incomes is going to bank mortgages now, and their parents' retirement savings are getting sucked away.  No wealth is created when inflation happens.  We're totally effed until it crashes, and then we're really effed.

Capitalism has proven to be the best system in the world.  All you have to do is look at which countries are the richest in the world, and they are all capitalist countries.  Socialism has failed where it has been tried.  When you take the money away from those who are the best at making money and give it to the rest of population, you kill incentive and destroy investment and innovation.  You destroy development and progress.

98% of job postings at Canadian universities are clearly discriminatory and promote reverse racism.

All 10 universities sampled—and 477 of the 489 job advertisements reviewed—employed some form of DEI requirement or strategy in filling academic vacancies. In other words, 98 percent of the academic postings directly or indirectly discriminated against candidates and/or threatened academic freedom.

It's really got to stop. The liberals have a weird idea that doing what they claim to be fighting will solve what they are fighting 

The solution to ending racism is to be racist.  The solution to excluding people is to exclude people.  The solution to the public perception that certain groups shouldn't be hired on their merits is to claim they can't be hired unless the law forced employers to do so.

It's absolutely nuts.

But then Star Trek is sick wokeness commie leftist universingly marxist propaganda. They had to make the honourable Ferengi into chickenshits to seem better than them.

BTW I made Pork Vindaloo over rotini. It was good, both my native and East Indian friends loved it. Fusion. Neither assimilation nor cultural appropriation.

As I've said before, much data is available from other Western nations that Canada never bothers to keep, and if it did would never let us see.

Why is it that when I travel to Western countries, I'm told not to bring in any nuts, seeds, fruits, vegetables, meat or mud on my shoes, because any foreign organism could upset the delicate balance of the ecosystem and introduce pests, diseases or predators.

But when it comes to human migration, our leaders want to bring in millions of unvetted, unmonitored men from areas where meningitis, tuberculosis, Ebola, and various other diseases are rife?

The same governments that say a ham sandwich could damage a country say that mass immigration can only be a good thing; and the violent, mediaeval, misogynistic, homophobic, sectarian cultures that these men bring with them are much needed "diversity"?

Even when we can all see the issues with alien cultures of grooming gangs, female genital mutilation, cousin marriage, acid attacks, terrorism and honour killings?

If diversity truly is a strength, then bullfrogs, tsetse flies and man-eating tigers will be an incredible boon to any city they're unleashed in.   - Comedian Leo Kearse

Good thing Canada has lots of secular lefties who know how to stand up to this nonsense.

...not only does the arrogance of it worry me,  it drives home the idea that potential hazards along a trail "aren't not there" simply because you don't see them or refuse to acknowledge their presence.  

Like the first year on a motorcycle (or those first 7 patrols) you don't even know what you need to be mindful (meaning afraid) of yet. The muscle memory required just isn't there. It only comes with exposure and a few close calls... in other words a bit of experience.

"Listening" to opinionated people (of any stripe) isn't "experience" even when you put the words in the same sentence and sprinkling them with sarcasm. It might be time to go see things for yourself.

The treadmill is getting you nowhere, and there's a reason for that, this isn't a left/right issue.

If you insist on seeing it in that context though the picture you posted (in ridicule) actually does become your destination by default.... hopefully it isn't the same place you started 50 years ago.

I should have said arguing I guess along with organizing, resisting and acting against.

You're the one on the run wheel, not me. You actually don't get that?

The left and right clearly have their issues but your right, the real struggle is on the other axis between governed and governments. The left right thing is way way more of a distraction from that.

I do, that's why I said: "the picture you posted in ridicule." 

Directed insults, ridicule and name calling usually don't require amplification or explanation.... most of us get the idea. These things have a curious way of being circular though, even when not intended to be.
