The “Pipeline” Problem That Medical Schools Don’t Want to Discuss

The “Pipeline” Problem That Medical Schools Don’t Want to Discuss

The U.S. Department of Justice’s recent finding that Yale School of Medicine discriminated on the basis of race in admissions has reignited one of the most contentious debates in higher education. According to the DOJ, black and Hispanic applicants admitted to Yale had substantially lower median MCAT scores and GPAs than white and Asian applicants across multiple admissions cycles, with the department concluding that equally qualified black applicants had dramatically higher odds of receiving interview invitations than comparable Asian applicants.

DEI-Elevated Federal Judge Tried To Free An Alleged Murderer Because She’s Incompetent At Basic Law

DEI-Elevated Federal Judge Tried To Free An Alleged Murderer Because She’s Incompetent At Basic Law

Last week, a federal judge in Rhode Island demanded that DHS take down a press release. The release was factually true: It warned citizens that Judge Melissa DuBose had ordered the release of an illegal alien wanted for murder in the Dominican Republic. Because the press release reflects legitimate debate regarding a judge’s ruling, DHS refused to take it down.

Over his four years in office, President Biden transformed large portions of the judiciary by appointing judges so radical that senators like Joe Manchin would not even support them. For sixteen months, DHS has suffered the consequences of that transformation.

Canadian Military’s Immigrant Experiment Serves as Warning to Europe

Canadian Military’s Immigrant Experiment Serves as Warning to Europe

While Western leaders push to bolster defense capabilities amid perceived rising threats, public willingness to enlist has lagged behind, forcing several countries to explore unconventional recruitment solutions.

Canada’s government last year changed its requirements for enlisting in the armed forces, accepting recruits with some medical conditions that would previously have been disqualifying, dropping aptitude test requirements, and implementing a program for immigrants with legal residency to join the country’s military.

The Equality Act institutionalised racism – against whites

The Equality Act institutionalised racism – against whites

THERE is a term for what is happening in Britain today but the establishment is terrified to say it. That term is institutional racism. For years we were told that the goal of the Equality Act was to protect discriminated against minorities. Now the mask has slipped. Racism and prejudice have not disappeared; they have simply been reworked and aimed at a new target: the British white majority.

The most damning recent evidence of this systemic rot is the ongoing scandal within the Royal Air Force. Recent disclosures have moved this from a policy failure to a full-blown crisis of integrity. Official documents and parliamentary testimony show that senior leadership allegedly lied to the Defence Secretary to hide the scale of their illegal recruitment practices.

Mark Milke: DEI has made society more racist

Mark Milke: DEI has made society more racist

If there’s a buzzword that’s captured corporate Canada, government and academia over the past decade, it’s “diversity.” When patched together with “equity” and “inclusion,” or DEI for short, it’s assumed to be excellent policy that’s anchored in fairness and equality. For its proponents, it is seen as an extension of civil rights movements that began in the 1950s in Canada and the United States.

But nice-sounding words are not enough when it comes to treating people as equal in law and policy, or building a flourishing country with equal opportunity for all.

Lollipop Ladies on Building Sites Are the Visible Sign of Out of Control DEI

The gender warriors at Australia’s public broadcaster don’t get why so few women are interested in jobs in construction. Social engineering has successfully pushed women into many other previously male dominated jobs and professions but construction has proved a tough nut to crack.

Some years ago the ABC published an article quoting academics who had done research into why this wasn’t happening. Their brilliant conclusion? A particular problem was a culture of “presenteeism”. Construction apparently isn’t keen on people who don’t show up! “There is little tolerance for those who won’t commit, and part-time, shared or flexible work doesn’t exist,” lamented the academics.

And, they said, the problem is made worse by the “push to complete projects on time”.

Jamie Sarkonak: Bird conservation — the latest field to take up race-based hiring

DEI Bird

In Quebec, government-sponsored racial discrimination is totally OK — as long as it’s directed at white people.

That’s the conclusion of the province’s human rights tribunal last week, having examined the case of a bird conservation non-profit, QuébecOiseaux, which refused to consider applications from white people for a temporary position in 2021.

Canada Built a Fair Society Based on Merit. Why Are We Abandoning It?

Canadians pride themselves on living in a fair society.

Most believe people should be judged by what they do, not by who they are. That principle is called merit. Working hard, earning your place, and contributing to the country are the foundations of Canada’s prosperity and stability.

It is also an idea that resonates deeply across political lines. Whether Canadians lean left or right, most still agree that fairness means the same rules for everyone.

Canadian Armed Forces recruitment ad featuring all-white cast sparks debate over DEI policies

CALGARY — A new recruitment advertisement from the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) featuring an all-white-male cast is drawing attention online.

While supporters are praising its tone, critics are questioning the message it’s sending after years of the military pushing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) policies.

This State Agency Rejected Her Because She’s White – Now She’s Suing

A Rhode Island English teacher who has been a vocal critic on “equity” curricula is now suing state health officials, alleging they used diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) practices to exclude her from the public health commission that advises the governor and state legislature.

This Group Thinks the Answer to Anti-Semitism Is More DEI

During the Super Bowl, New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft took heat on two fronts: one, for owning the team that lost, and two, for airing an ad that quietly infuriated a large portion of the Jewish community. The commercial depicted a scrawny Jewish teen being bullied at school and finding a “Dirty Jew” sticker on his knapsack, before a tall, black classmate steps in to save him.

The backlash from Jews was sharp and immediate. We don’t need to be cast as victims waiting for a savior, many critics offered. We need to project strength.


He speaks too kindly of the ADL. There has been no change in their efforts.

DC Water Manager Admitted Deciding Agency Had Too Many Whites – DEI Fixed That But Also Covered DC in 240 Million Gallons of Raw Sewage

Good news, Washington, D.C.

Sure, you may have your river water more, um, feces-enriched than before thanks to the failure of the Potomac Interceptor rupture. Sure, the sewage pipe’s failure is so massive that the media is calling it the “Pooptomac” disaster. (USA Today’s phraseology, not mine; I’d never be so juvenile as to say that, I’d just repeat it.) Sure, aging infrastructure is apparently to blame for the disaster, which has led to the spillage of roughly 240 million gallons of untreated sewage flowing into the Potomac River — the biggest spill in U.S. history.

Jamie Sarkonak: DEI in universities can be defeated. Just look to Alberta

On Jan. 26, the University of Alberta embarked on the process of ridding diversity, equity and inclusion from its hiring policy, at least in name. Identity is still a core part of the school’s ethos, but this is still a step in the right direction; the proposed change would have been unthinkable in 2021.

It’s little developments like these that give me hope in the future of Canada. Yes, progressive backwardisms are deeply embedded everywhere, but untrenching them is easier than you might think. It just takes having the guts to wield carrots and sticks.

MORGAN: Canada’s DEI reckoning has begun — now it’s time to finish the Job

Along with being incapable of understanding the basic principles of supply and demand, progressives have a blind spot when it comes to race-based policies. They consider themselves champions of the downtrodden and minorities, yet they support the divisive policies that cause minorities to become downtrodden in the first place. They recognize that race-based policies caused injustice and wrongs for centuries, but feel the way to reconcile those wrongs is to implement more race-based policies. Two wrongs don’t make a right.
