Robin DiAngelo, the best-selling author of White Fragility, is a big believer in citing minorities.
In an “accountability” statement on her website, which makes repeated reference to her Ph.D., DiAngelo, 67, tells “fellow white people” that they should “always cite and give credit to the work of BIPOC people who have informed your thinking.”
Under our woke moral order, one can easily predict when agents of the regime will behave like anarchists and when they will behave like tyrants.
In 2020, the Left was flirting with the abolition of police and prisons. Today, they pose as the champions of both these things, despite their very recent status as irredeemable hotbeds of systemic racism. It is mightily impressive what singling out the white working classes can do for an institution’s reputation—with the elites, if not with the people.
Given how dismal most of world history is, many people understandably romanticize their ancestors while governments peddle insolent propaganda. But why would Canada, so blessed by history and geography, have grafted onto a past as discouraging, as it is false?
The single-most animating phenomenon of the modern left in Canada and across the English speaking world is not class, it is racial resentment. Entire grassroots and intellectual movements are dedicated to what is essentially ethnic cleansing of people and artwork, as well as keeping old world blood feuds alive.
The top one per cent of Canadians pay only 23.6 per cent of their income in taxes, enjoying the lowest tax burden of all of us. Strangely, the anti-tax voices that have come running to defend the wallets of the middle class in recent months have failed to mention this fact.
In this time of rising living costs, Canadians are feeling the affordability pinch. Some powerful voices are quickly stepping up to say taxes are to blame, decrying the government’s supposed overreach into our pockets. But the real conversation we should be having is how Canada’s tax burden is distributed, and whether everyone is paying their fair share.
HALIFAX – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is rejecting the suggestion that the Liberals could benefit from a change at the top after the Democratic party saw a bump in the polls following U.S. President Joe Biden’s exit from the presidential race last month.
Trudeau is in Halifax for a three-day cabinet retreat preparing for the upcoming fall sitting of Parliament, and the time for him to woo voters is becoming increasingly narrow.

The review below of what is happening to free speech and Western culture in England may be a preview of what is going to happen in Canada. Perhaps Canadians should leave while they still can.
Something has gone awry in Great Britain. White indigenous people are now evil. They are racist. In Northern Ireland Minister for Justice Naomi Long said the violence and racist attacks in recent days were “not reflective” of the people of Northern Ireland.
“We need to call it for what it is. It is racism, it is Islamophobia, it is xenophobia. “If we’re going to deal with it, we need to name it for what it is, and we need to challenge it.″
Seems that British people of no colour are called out as racists when they march proudly with the British flag. Patriotism to ones’ heritage is now called out as racism. It isn’t about racism or religion. It is about CULTURE and acculturation.
Trump is a lot closer than he appears in the mirror.
Since Vice President Kamala Harris was installed at the top of the Democratic presidential ticket, the corporate media have been at pains to portray her modest lead in the national polls as a shift of momentum in the presidential race. Last week, for example, Politico insisted, “Kamala Harris stole Donald Trump’s Republican convention bounce.” If this was meant to reassure nervous Democrats that simply dumping Biden and rebranding Harris is enough to defeat former President Trump, it’s cold comfort indeed. She got through her party’s “joyful” convention with the aid of her trusty teleprompter, but her national and swing state polls are underwhelming.
Can you tell the difference between an extreme misogynist and a moderate misogynist? Hating women has always seemed, to me anyway, a rather extreme position on its own. The label ‘extreme misogynist’ is surely repetitive. A moderate misogynist is an oxymoron.
But then the Home Office announced this week that ‘extreme misogyny’ could be added to the list of ideologies the government monitors to tackle terrorism. I’ve been racking my brain, trying to figure out how the police would tell the extremists from the moderates. Does the extreme misogynist hold women in contempt all week long, while the moderate reserves his disdain for weekends? Does a mild misogynist simply begrudge us having the right to vote, rather than campaign to take it away?
When someone finds it necessary to repeatedly declare that he’s not an antisemite, he’s probably an antisemite.
When someone finds it necessary to repeatedly declare that his endless loathing for the state of Israel isn’t antisemitic, he’s probably an antisemite.
On August 23, China’s foreign ministry said that the country had taken “countermeasures” against two Philippine military aircraft near Subi Reef in the South China Sea.
Four days earlier, Chinese Coast Guard vessels, without justification, rammed two Philippine boats near Sabina Shoal as they tried to resupply forces stationed at Flat and Nanshan Islands.
