Canada’s military should fix white supremacy problem before it starts: analyst
An Alberta-based analyst asked by the military to study white supremacy in its ranks says if it doesn’t want the problem to take root, it should take action against a culture that gives it room to grow.
Political scientist Andy Knight says his research suggests current attitudes within the Armed Forces favour white, male and Christian cultures and put groups like women, people of colour, newcomers and the 2SLGBTQ+ community at a disadvantage.
… He said the research became all the more intriguing after it was revealed that some military members were involved in the 2022 “Freedom Convoy” protests against COVID-19 rules that shut down much of downtown Ottawa for weeks.
The horror! CAF is favouring “White” people over the government’s preferred perma-victims!
And the CAF wonders why its primary recruiting pool – white males – have given up on the armed forces as a viable career.
