With šxwmə0kwəy’ Əmasəm, moral preening overrides safety

Vancouver city council voted to change the name for Trutch Street to Street, condemning 100 or so residents to a lifetime of addressarial grief, Jamie Sarkonak says.

The City of Vancouver describes its new name for Trutch Street, “šxwmə0kwəyəmasəm ’

Street,” as a gift, but it’s more like a curse.

On Tuesday, city council unanimously voted for the change, condemning 100 or so residents to a lifetime of addressarial grief. Joining them in suffering will be countless drivers who make their way down the route, delivering, visiting and otherwise trying to get from A to B.

The new name means “Musqueamview” in Musqueam, but the city itself admits that nobody is likely to be able to read it in its letter-salad form: “With no fluent speakers left, this street name is a landmark moment for hən’q’əmin’əm’ revitalization,” notes a web page about the change. (That word beginning in “h” refers to the Musqueam’s traditional language.) It will replace the name of Joseph Trutch (1826-1904), B.C.’S first lieutenant-governor who, among other things, reduced the sizes of Indigenous reserves and denied the existence of some earlier treaties.

That remark by the city contained an important admission: the purpose of changing the name of pronounceable Trutch Street into something indecipherable at 40 km/h is political. The goal is to involve the local population in a moral exercise at the cost of their comfort and safety. Indeed, not even the Musqueam (who insisted on this visual obstacle course, according to Deputy City Manager Armin Amrolia) are going to be capable of reading it. Beyond signalling solidarity against colonialism, impeding the passage of Vancouverites and offending the local Squamish Nation, it’s a functionally useless sign.

Emergency services have already expressed their concerns that the new name will get in the way of saving lives, largely because 911 callers might not be able to pronounce the name. Most people haven’t learned linguistics to the point where they can pronounce Indigenous mainstays like the theta symbol, the tiny W, the 7 and the triangle. “Help, I’m at Sixwomkeymasem Street” is the most we can reasonably expect from people.

To address these concerns, the city has suggested a second set of unofficial signs that read “Musqueamview St.” (though it’s unclear whether that solution has been finalized). Emergency mapping systems will use the unofficial English name, but it won’t appear in the bylaw, which will use the official name instead. Licenses will have to be redone, as will insurance and registration slips. Then, there are land titles, bank addresses, credit cards, etc.

Anyone sending or receiving mail by Canada Post is asked to write both official and unofficial street names if possible, but to use English if only one line is available (work is being done to accept these new letters, but “most non-english lettering is not currently recognized” our letter service told me in an email this week). Other internal and external address and map systems — such as transit or B.C.’S insurance corporation — might be unable to digest these characters.

“To move forward, the project team recommended that these systems use the name ‘šxwmə0k

St” wherever possible, and those that cannot will use the name “Musqueamview St” with a footnote wherever possible stating “Musqueamview St is a translated name available for use while colonial systems work to accept multilingual characters,’” reads the direction from city staff.

The Canada Revenue Agency, meanwhile, can only accept Latin characters, numerals and basic punctuation. “In this case, since Canada Post will be supplying the English version of the street name, that is the format that will appear in CRA records,” said media officer Khameron Sikoulavong in an email Tuesday. This won’t have any impact on tax filing, he assures me, but I’d still feel queasy not using my legal address if I were a resident.

It’s no small matter to expand the letters that a system can use: even for this newspaper, our designer advises me, this article will be a headache to print due to the digital acrobatics involved.

EASY COMMUNICATION IS NO LONGER THE PRIORITY.

Perhaps Vancouver believes it can force decolonization on others by using this script of what is functionally a dead language. But that hope would be far-fetched: most entities that need to keep legal addresses on file won’t get the memo that there are about 100 potential new system-incompatible entries, and many won’t have the capacity to incorporate upside-down Es into their vocabulary.

On the readers’ side, all sorts of barriers keep these words from being useful in wayfinding: drivers with minor reading disabilities, eyesight problems and second-language capabilities in English can get around fine with numbers and words like “Forest Way” — but with a jumble of letters with foreign marks upwards of 20 letters long? I think not. Indigenous words aren’t out of the question, either; indeed, it’s a tradition we should keep. Many excellent Canadian place names came to us this way, such as “Canada,” “Kitsilano,” “Ottawa,” “Toronto,” “Winnipeg” and “Saskatchewan.” These, however, have been appropriately anglicized, which no longer satisfies the new generation of decolonial busybodies.

It’s clear that easy communication is no longer the priority. This street in Vancouver is being transformed into a “learning opportunity” to force upon commuters, similar to a Grade 1 classroom with labelled staplers and doors, as part of a wider trend. Toronto decided to rename its Woodsy Park to “Ethennonnhawahstihnen’ Park” in 2019, resulting in a very awkwardly named library branch. Edmonton in 2020 switched its wards over from numbers to Indigenous words like “Ipiihkoohkanipiaohtsi,” which I imagine very few residents can spell or pronounce without seeing the word in front of them. Vancouver has elementary schools named “Xpey’ ” and “wək’ əan’ əstə syaqwəm,” a guaranteed recipe for confusion.

So, now that our wayfinding system has been hijacked by ideologues who see getting around as a secondary, perhaps tertiary purpose, we must look to provincial ministers to help, because only they have the power to do what’s right.

Municipalities are not entities that are set out in the Canadian Constitution; they only exist because provincial legislatures say so. And by the same power, provincial legislatures can limit what these cities can do. The same goes for school boards.

If names are getting out of hand, provincial ministers can limit the changing of historic names; they can put character limits on new street, neighbourhood and school titles to keep them to a reader-friendly length; and they can ban the use of special, non-english and non-french characters to keep a city’s addresses readable by humans and databases alike.

More than a cultural issue, it’s an accessibility issue. Canada has official languages to prevent its people from suffering Tower-of-babel incidents. If city officials have forgotten all this, it’s time for the provinces to put them in their place.

Catholic and Protestant

The Anglican Church is both Catholic and Protestant, although the liberalism that has become far too prevalent in the Church in both England and North America is neither Catholic nor Protestant nor, for that matter, Christian, but is rather a revisionist theology that borrows Christian terms and redefines them to fit the ideas of the post-Christian secularism that “Western Civilization” adapted after ceasing to be Christendom.  While orthodox Anglicans of both high and low varieties are usually okay with the expression “Reformed Catholic” some Anglo-Catholics are as allergic to the term Protestant as some evangelical Anglicans, those who share some traits of what I call Hyper-Protestantism, are of the term Catholic.

I maintain that we ought to embrace both words, albeit with the caveat that they are properly defined.

“Protestant” requires the most definition. It has become a rather vague term, designating any ecclesiastical group not in fellowship with the Roman See except those who parted ways with Rome prior to the sixteenth century like the Eastern and Oriental Orthodox or whose breech with Rome was based on new innovations Rome introduced after the Council of Trent like the Old Catholics.  Used this way, it conveys little to nothing in the way of positive information about what these groups believe.  For the term to be meaningful rather than useless it needs to be defined in a way that identifies beliefs that all Protestant groups hold in common.  This requires that it be less inclusive than is the current norm.

The words that we would most naturally use as substitutes for “Protestant” come with their own sets of difficulties, however.  “Reformed,” while it sounds better to the ear than “Protestant” and taken literally is a precise statement of what we mean when we say the Anglican Church is Protestant, that is, that is has undergone a “Reformation”, comes with a problem that is the opposite of that attached to “Protestant.”  It is too precise.  Especially when it is spelled with a capital R, it identifies a specific ecclesiastical tradition, that which emerged from the Reformation in Switzerland and as a theological term it indicates the system associated with the Reformed Church, and in particular the interpretation of predestination adapted at the Synod of Dort.  While a sort of Calvinism was probably the predominant theology among Anglican clergy of the last half of the sixteenth century and there was an attempt to enshrine this in the official theology of the Church by appending the Lambeth Articles to the Articles of Religion this attempt ultimately failed because it went against the overall spirit of the first Elizabethan era which was to avoid committing the Church to either side in the disputes between the mainstream traditions of the continental Reformation.  This meant that the slight slant towards the Swiss Reformed tradition that had been introduced late in the reforms under Edward VI was removed by the reforms under Elizabeth I. Examples of this can be seen in the revision of the Articles of Religion into the current Thirty-Nine from the Edwardian Forty-Two and the dropping of the black rubric from the Elizabethan editions of the Book of Common Prayer.

In the sixteenth century “Protestant” was largely a term of abuse used by the Roman See and its adherents for the Reformers and their followers.  Their own preferred self-designation was “evangelical” but as with the term “Reformed” little would be gained by substituting this for “Protestant.”  By the twentieth century, especially in North America, this term had come to have a rather different set of connotations than in the sixteenth century.  It has connotations of pietism, puritanism, revivalism and an approach to religion centred on personal experience of the type that the sixteenth century Magisterial Reformers would most likely have denounced as the enthusiasm and extremism associated with those they dubbed Schwärmerei.  Alternately it can suggest a revised version of fundamentalism that is less separatist (good) but also far more willing to compromise on the infallible authority of Scripture (bad). 

There is also the problem that the self-application of this term by the sixteenth century Reformers and their followers was based on the mistaken idea that they had recovered a Gospel that the Church had lost.  The Gospel is clearly identified in the New Testament as the message that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures, that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures and the testimony of eyewitnesses.  It is at the heart of the faith confessed in both the Apostles’ and Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creeds as well as the Athanasian Symbol, along with the basic truths that identify the Christ proclaimed in the Gospel (that there is one God, Who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that the Son, while remaining fully God, became truly Man, by taking unto Himself a whole human nature through His miraculous conception by the Holy Ghost and birth of the Virgin Mary).  It was never lost by the Church.  If the Reformers recovered anything it was the Pauline doctrine of justification, but this is not the Gospel.  The Pauline doctrine of justification – that it is by faith and not by works, or as the Reformers put it, by faith alone – is a doctrine about the Gospel, but it is not the Gospel itself.  The Gospel is Christocentric – it is about Jesus Christ. Justification by faith and not works is anthropocentric – it is about us, and how we receive the benefit of what the Gospel proclaims.  To claim that justification by faith alone is itself the Gospel is to place us rather than Jesus Christ at the centre of the Gospel.

Rather than abandon it for these alternatives, it makes more sense to retain “Protestant” with a proper definition.  The definition need include no more than two positive affirmations of belief.  The first is that the Bible as God’s written Word is the authoritative standard of truth to which the Church’s doctrine and tradition must conform.  The second is that the salvation which Jesus Christ accomplished for us in the events proclaimed in the Gospel is in all of its aspects given to us freely as a gift which we receive by faith rather than by our works.  

“Catholic”, as stated, requires less definition.  This is the ancient term – the first recorded use of it is in the writings of St. Ignatius of Antioch who was martyred early in the second century – that designated the whole Church as distinguished from the Church in a specific location (the Church in Rome, the Church in Galatia, and so forth).  It is the Greek word for whole – which is also the root from which the English word whole is derived – with the prefix kata attached as an intensifier.  In addition to designating the whole Church, the early Christians used it to distinguish the true faith from heresy.  This is how the term is used in the Athanasian Symbol, in, for example, its first statement “Whosoever would be saved needeth before all things to hold fast the Catholic Faith.”  Used this way, it is basically synonymous with orthodox, but note that the usage of Catholic as orthodox is derived from the meaning of Catholic as whole.  The Catholic faith, the orthodox faith, does not include doctrines that are particular to one place or one time, but is the faith confessed by the whole Church of Christ.  As. St. Vincent of Lerins famously put it is the faith confessed “everywhere, in all times, and by all.”

“Protestant” and “Catholic”, so defined, should not be thought to be at odds with each other.  A Catholicism that is defined by what is believed and practiced by the whole Church, in all times and places, rather than what may be particular in one place and time, will not include such things as mandatory celibacy for clergy, restricting Communion to one kind for the laity, an intermediate state for the faithful prior to the Final Judgement that resembles hell except in that it is temporary, supererogatory works and a treasury of merit, indulgences and dispensations, that are innovations of the Roman Church from after when she and the Churches of the four ancient Patriarchs of the East broke fellowship with each other at the end of the first Christian millennium.  These things have never been part of the faith and practice of the Eastern Churches.  The Protestantism that rejects these on the grounds of their being unscriptural is not rejecting anything that can truly be said to be Catholic.  That having been said, there are ideas commonly thought to be “Protestant” that are at odds with Catholicism properly defined.  Examples of these include a) the idea that the true “Church” is not an organized community/society but an aggregate term for speaking of all people who considered as individuals are Christian believers, b) the idea that ecclesiastical government (episcopal, Presbyterian, congregational) is adiopha rather than of Apostolic provenance, c) the idea that when Holy Communion is said to be an anamnesis or memorial of the Lord’s death this means a depiction in the present of an event in the past rather than the means given to us by grace whereby we partake in time of the Lord’s sacrifice which has been taken out of time and into eternity by His offering of Himself in the Tabernacle built not with hands in Heaven, d) the idea that baptism, the sacrament of entry under the New Covenant corresponding with circumcision under the Old, unlike the New Covenant itself is less inclusive rather than more and should therefore be withheld from the infants of Christian parents, and e) that when the Son of God “was made flesh and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only-begotten of the Father)” so that He could say to St. Philip “he that hath seen me hath seen the Father” this did not effect a fundamental change from when God said to Israel through Moses under the Old Covenant “ye saw no manner of similitude on the day that the LORD spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire.”  Just as none of the beliefs and practices that Rome introduced after the Schism and which Protestantism rejected is truly Catholic, so none of these ideas that conflict with what is truly Catholic should be considered essential to what is truly Protestant.  That all of them are wrong is demonstrable from the Scriptures.[1]

Rather than picking “Protestant” or “Catholic” to describe our Church, orthodox Anglicans should embrace both terms, defining “Protestant” so as to include the supreme authority of Scripture and the freeness of the gift of Christ’s salvation received by faith[2] but to exclude ideas that conflict with what is truly Catholic in that it belongs to the faith and practice of the whole Church since the earliest times and defining “Catholic” so as to include what belongs to the faith and practice of the whole Church from the earliest times but to exclude those distinctly Roman errors rightly excised from our English Church in the Reformation.


[1] That a) is wrong is evident from both the Greek word for Church, ekklesia, which denotes a group that has met or assembled, and from how the New Testament uses the word – it is always a visible community of Christian believers, never just a convenient way of speaking of X, Y, and Z Christians, regardless of whether they have ever met.   With regards to b), the episcopal polity is clearly of Apostolic provenance in the New Testament – the Apostles themselves, along with those invited to share in their governance such as SS Timothy and Titus, are the bishops in the sense of the governors of the Church, presiding as the top tier of a ministry which like that of the Old Testament Church has three tiers, the middle being that of the presbyters and the lower tier the deacons.  That the Apostles were the governors and the New Testament was written while they were still alive is the reason the word bishop had not yet become the official designation of the governors and is sometimes used of presbyters.  This is a seer/prophet matter and does not negate the New Testament’s clear testimony to the Apostolic provenance of the ecclesiastical government found in all ancient Churches prior to the sixteenth century.  With regards to c), look up every occurrence of anamnesis in the Bible, LXX Old Testament and New Testament.   In none of these does it mean something intended to call something from the past to our mental recollection.  That Christ died in time, but took His sacrifice out of time and into eternity by offering it in the Heavenly Tabernacle is a key theme of the epistle to the Hebrews.  With regards to d), that baptism takes the place of circumcision can be demonstrated from Colossians 2:11-13 and that the New Covenant is more inclusive than the Old is rather the point of Christ’s commission to take His Gospel and baptize all nations, as well as of St. Paul’s frequent comments about the Old Testament Law, which distinguished Israel from other nations, being removed as a “wall of partition” between them.  That infants, circumcised on the eight day under the Old Covenant, would not be excluded from baptism under the New, is the only reasonable inference from this and is basically explicitly stated by the Lord when He rebuked His disciples from not allowing the infants to be brought to Him.  The words quoted from St. John’s Gospel in e) ought to be sufficient to rebut it.  Obviously the Incarnation changed everything.  The arguments that St. John of Damascus and St. Theodore the Studite advanced against the iconoclasts and which won out in the seventh ecumenical council were built firmly upon the foundation of the Incarnation.  While Christians who adopt iconoclasm like to think they are walking in the footsteps of King Josiah and that Christians who reject their iconoclasm are tainted with pagan idolatry, in reality the iconoclasts have adopted a position typical of monotheistic religions that reject the Incarnation.

[2] When Dr. Luther said that justification is by “faith alone”, by “alone” he excluded only what St. Paul had already excluded in Romans and Galatians, our own works, and for the very reason St. Paul gives for excluding these in Romans 4, that if it were by works it would be a wage paid to us rather than a gift freely given.  Faith is the hand by which we receives the freely given grace of God and in this function it is indeed alone in that nothing else we do can either do this instead of faith or alongside faith.  This does not exclude the sacraments as means of grace, as ought to be evident from what Dr. Luther, Calvin, and our own Anglican formularies have to say about them.  In the giving of a gift, two hands are always involved, the hand of the recipient and the hand of the giver.  The sacraments are the hand of the Giver working through the means of His Church.  Nor does it say anything about any other function of faith, such as its being one of the three elements of basic Christian character alongside hope and Christian love.  Nor is it some sort of ontological statement.  This adequately answers any reasonable objection someone might try to make to it on the grounds of theology that is actually Catholic.  When Rome anathematized it in the Council of Trent, and the Eastern Church rejected it as found in the Confession of Cyril I Lucaris, what they rejected was the idea that someone can gain acceptance before God by getting all of his intellectual ducks lined up properly while living however he pleases. This, however, is not what Dr. Luther meant but is rather a form of salvation by works in which visible outward works have been replaced by invisible inner works.  The Protestant doctrine can only be properly understood as speaking of faith as the hand that receives the gift of salvation.  That salvation is a gift we receive rather than something we earn or achieve for ourselves is a Catholic truth that both the Roman and Eastern Churches traditionally affirm, a fact one needs only look at the early history of the struggles against the rigorist schismatics the Donatists and Novatians and against the heresy of Pelagius to discover, but it had become badly obscured, especially at the popular level, in the Roman Church by the end of the fifteenth century.– Gerry T.

Carney Says Moslem Values Are Canadian Values: NO, They’re Not!

Carney Says Moslem Values Are Canadian Values: NO, They’re Not!

BARCLAY: No Mr. Carney, not all ‘Muslim values’ are ‘Canadian values’

‘Orthodox Islam inherently contradicts and rejects quintessential liberal values, and the democratic beliefs on which Canada’s system of government is built.’

Prime Minister Mark Carney celebrates Eid al-Adha in Ottawa

On June 6, not six weeks after winning the 2025 Canadian general election, newly-elected Prime Minister Mark Carney joined the Muslim community to celebrate Eid al-Adha, where he proudly declared that “Muslim values are Canadian values.”

However, despite Mr. Carney’s attempt to encompass all of Canada under a loving embrace of Sharia law and Mohammedan tenets, Canada’s foundational values are utterly antithetical to the fundamental ideology of the Quran.

In fact, orthodox Islamic ideology inherently contradicts and rejects various quintessential liberal values, along with the democratic beliefs on which Canada’s system of government is built.

First, orthodox Islamic ideology overwhelmingly rejects the premise that every person has an inalienable right to free speech, and proactively seeks to execute anyone who criticizes Islam or Muhammad. It also violently rejects any separation of church and state, demanding instead that all political states reflect Sharia law.

Further, orthodox Islamic ideology eschews personal equality and disavows any notion that all people deserve identical human rights regardless of differences such as religion or gender. It also repudiates the idea that individual liberty and self-determination are sacrosanct or inviolable.

In addition, orthodox Islamic ideology openly rejects religious freedom and says in the Quran of non-Muslims, “Those who disbelieve…will be in the Fire of Hell, to stay there forever. They are the worst of  ‘all’ beings.” It explicitly exhorts righteous Muslims to “Kill them wherever you come upon them… that is the reward of the disbelievers.”

More importantly, as orthodox Islamic ideology rejects liberal democratic foundations and calls on its followers to take immediate, violent action against unbelievers and profane societies, it is impossible for orthodox Islam and its fundamentalist cohorts to coexist peacefully within a democratic society.

In truth, several European Union EU states have become fraught with insecurity and subjected to repeated terrorist attacks precisely because they have attempted to integrate orthodox Islamic ideology. As a result, they have unfortunately become subject to Islamic fundamentalism’s constant violent struggle against liberal ideology and democratic political thought throughout the modern era.

For example, from 2013–2024, Germany endured 19 major Islamic terrorist attacks, with innocent people murdered annually. France suffered 53 attacks during the same period, with nearly 30 people killed each year. Incredibly, from 2013–2024, France experienced more terrorist attacks than Iran, and more terrorist-related deaths than Algeria, Uganda, and Tanzania combined.

Even Canada has seen a rise in Islamic terrorism, as a result of the Liberal government’s flirtations with Islamic fundamentalism and its craven desire to secure Muslim votes. Since Oct. 7, 2023, “nearly a dozen terrorism-related incidents [have occurred] in Canada or abroad involving Canadians.” According to RCMP data, “The number of terrorism charges laid in Canada jumped 488% last year,” and “Canadian police have foiled six terrorist plots in the last 12 months alone.” Canada’s Integrated Terrorism Assessment Centre (ITAC) has recently warned the government that the country may “experience a lone-wolf terror attack soon.”

Despite Prime Minister Carney’s effort to recast Canadian society as an offshoot of Islamic values, the liberal-democratic values that define Canada are diametrically opposed to Islam’s foundational precepts.

Orthodox Islamic ideology inherently contradicts liberal values, as well as the democratic ideology that underpins the Canadian constitution. In fact, the contradiction is so stark that in the long term, orthodox Islamic ideology and democratic systems cannot coexist.

More importantly, if the Liberal government continues to instill Islamic values into the foundation of the Canadian state, Canada will ultimately be forced to mirror that ideology — and abandon the liberal-democratic principles that have underpinned and enabled the nation’s success since its founding.(Western Standard, June 18, 2025)

EXCLUSIVE: School board trains staff that the term ‘family’ is harmful, racist

Waterloo Region District School Board staff are being trained that the word “family” is a harmful concept rooted in white supremacy.

Waterloo Region District School Board staff are being trained that the word “family” is a harmful concept rooted in white supremacy.

True North obtained internal training materials delivered to the staff at Waterloo-Oxford District Secondary School by the Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation which assert that terms like “objectivity,” “perfectionism,” and “worship of the written word” are hallmarks of “Whiteness” and upholding white supremacy.

AI-generated content may be incorrect.

Quoting from Culturally Relevant Pedagogy by Laura Mae Lindo, one slide states that “biases are the socialized teachings of the white culture,” and “we use key words and phrases to promote the dominant culture.” One of the offensive words in question is “family,” which is said to be harmful to racialized students because it implies male authority, demands obedience without question, and erodes personal boundaries by “prioritizing the family’s needs.”

Another slide asserts that asking for evidence for claims of racism or acknowledging racism toward white people is a “characteristic of whiteness” that must be dismantled.

“The pain and hurt and discomfort are not ancillary to antiracism work, they are the guts of it” it says. “Without them, change simply does not happen,” quoting from White Women: Everything You Already Know About Your Own Racism and How to Do Better. The WRDSB’s 2024 workforce census reports that 90% of staff are white and 79% are women.

A source within the board who provided the materials and asked to remain anonymous questioned whether the messaging truly reflects the views of most staff. “Teachers just want to get on with their job of teaching,” the source said. “Ideology—if you will—is just something many teachers acknowledge as being present. They just want to get on with their jobs.”

Within staff circles, caution has become routine as the source was advised to “be careful” when sharing information with outsiders. They pointed to the case of Ontario teacher Chanel Pfahl, who the Ontario College of Teachers investigated after publicly criticizing anti-racism education.

“Whether [anyone within the administration] believes it or not is anyone’s guess,” the source said.

Another slide promotes the use of “BIPOC affinity groups,” described as exclusive, invitation-only spaces for non-white staff or students. These groups are deliberately kept confidential, justified by the claim that school culture is inhospitable to racial minorities. Despite their private nature, the groups are cited in WRDSB board meeting minutes and equity reports as markers of institutional progress.

Despite denials, Ontario’s Ministry of Education endorses culturally relevant and responsive pedagogy, which serves as the applied form of critical race theory. It is not a standalone course but a political framework that filters classroom instruction through the lens of identity, power, and systemic oppression. The Ministry’s Equity Action Plan requires that culturally relevant and responsive pedagogy should be integrated across all subjects.

According to Stephen Reich, a PhD student in educational leadership and policy at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, the concept of “whiteness” is directly borrowed from critical race theory. Reich, who studies the politicization of education, told True North that there is no experimental evidence showing that anti-racist approaches reduce discrimination. In fact, he argues these methods often “create bias where none previously existed.”

Reich noted that there is “no evidence that anti-oppression education narrows learning gaps” adding that limited studies attempting to measure any benefits have found that such programs “make students more fluent in anti-oppression language—nothing more.”

The WRDSB previously denied that critical race theory is part of its programming. In June 2022, trustee Cindy Watson introduced a motion requesting a report on the use of critical race theory in lesson plans.

“There is much confusion from parents and staff around CRT and white privilege, the confusion is breeding concerns, sharing concerns leads to fear of being judged or being labelled a racist and judgment will ultimately always bring division,” Watson said during the board meeting. WRDSB staff responded that critical race theory was not part of the curriculum, and the motion was voted down.

True North reached out to the WRDSB for comment but did not receive a response.

Anti-racist hiring practices have followed similar lines. On March 23, WRDSB hosted a job fair specifically for “Indigenous, Black & racialized individuals.” The stated rationale was to ensure that students “see themselves reflected in the education system.”

The board does not currently have a formal anti-racism policy although one is currently under consultation, with a target completion date in Fall 2025.

Jamil Jivani Launches Petition to End Temporary Foreign Worker Programme: Let’s Hope The Whole Tory Caucus Gets Behind It!

Jamil Jivani launches petition to end temporary foreign worker program

OTTAWA — Conservative MP Jamil Jivani has launched a petition to end the temporary foreign worker program.

The petition says the temporary foreign worker program is a “large contributor” to an unsustainable level of immigration and claims the program is taking jobs away from Canadians and suppressing wages.

In a social media video about the petition, Jivani links immigration to doctor shortages, crowded hospitals, the housing crisis and a challenging job market.

“There’s a pretty clear consensus, even across people with different political views, that immigration levels are just unsustainably high,” Jivani said.

“Anyone who goes to a hospital can see there’s not enough beds. Anyone who goes to look for a family doctor can’t find one. You go to buy a house, there’s not enough of those. You go to find a job, there might not be one of those for you either.”

The Ontario MP said it’s reached a point in Parliament where you “can’t have a sensible conversation” about the issue.

Jivani said his petition does not include temporary workers in the agricultural sector. He suggested that seasonal agricultural workers should be under a separate program.

The Ontario MP said that youth unemployment is one reason why he’s brought forward this petition.

The unemployment rate for people aged 15 to 24 reached 14 per cent in April, according to Statistics Canada’s May jobs report.

Last year, the government announced plans to reduce the number of temporary foreign workers being admitted to Canada. This measure includes refusing to process applications in metropolitan areas with more than six per cent unemployment.

The government plans to admit 82,000 workers annually under the temporary foreign worker program from 2025 to 2027, according to its immigration levels plan.

In an emailed statement, Employment Minister Patty Hajdu needled Jivani over not being named one of the Conservative caucus critics in the House of Commons.

“I know MP Jivani wasn’t included in Andrew Scheer’s shadow cabinet,” she wrote, referring to the Conservative MP who is leading the Official Opposition in the House of Commons, “but he may want to ask that the party resume briefing him, because if they had, he’d know that in the last year alone, we considerably scaled back the TFW program to reflect local labour needs.”

Hajdu added the government is consulting with labour and industry groups about future changes to the program and said it “in no way” replaces Canadian talent.

The minister said the program is “vital” to the agricultural sector and tourism industry.

Jivani appears to be acting alone with his petition, since he does not hold one of the Conservative critic positions.

Alberta MPs Michelle Rempel Garner and Garnett Genuis are the immigration and employment critics, respectively.

The Conservatives did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

This week I was researching the history of the modern African economy as well as the financial effects of “colonialism”, largely in an effort to discern if Africa is actually better off with or without western influence. One can of course argue that racial divisions like Apartheid in South Africa or segregation in Rhodesia have their own oppressive social effects beyond the financial. There’s also the argument that only “white colonists” ever benefited from the infrastructure they built (which is actually untrue, wherever white colonists were established, everything from water access to roads to medical care improved for everyone).

However, I think it’s fair to ask if these nations were experiencing growth and prosperity under white governance, or if things were relatively the same. We’re not supposed to talk about it – We’re only supposed to say “colonialism bad”. I don’t care about that, I just want to know what the realities are.

In the process I came across an interesting video featuring a black South African man who presented the race issue and the South Africa issue in a way that was simple but it brought impressive clarity. In summary he said:

Africans are forever chasing the white man.”

What he means is, African culture, some elements of black culture, the third world in general, all of them are constantly trying to co-opt what white western culture builds. He argues that wherever the white population in Africa shrinks or migrates away, the country “becomes a shithole”. So, Africans chase white people.

When white people in Africa relocate to Australia, or Canada, or the US or Europe, the Africans try to follow. Instead of building up their own communities and nations they use and then eventually tear down the infrastructure that whites already built. They never replace it with anything else. Then they immigrate overseas to where the white people are because their own countries are in disarray. Eventually, they start tearing down those countries.

Leftists will call this a “racist” argument rooted in “white supremacy”, but this is a black South African making the point. It’s not racist, it’s just an observation of concrete fact. When Rhodesia became Zimbabwe and the whites were ethnically cleansed, the country collapsed and the black people starved to death.

South Africa systematically oppresses (or kills) the white citizenry because they want the land the whites own (they chase the white men). The Afrikaners are 7% of the population but make up around 70% of all agriculture and food production. Instead of seeing the white populace as a valuable asset to the country, they treat them as a foreign enemy. And so, the country falls deeper into economic despair and they are now on the verge of their own collapse.

When Matamela Ramaphosa, President of South Africa, sauntered into the White House with his big grin and his large entourage, he was there to get money. He wasn’t there to explain how he was going to improve conditions in his country. And, he certainly wasn’t there to debate the finer details of the ethnic cleansing of whites in his country or the government confiscation of their land. No, he was a black African leader petitioning a white US President for handouts.

In this case he believes his country is entitled to that money, so it doesn’t come off as begging so much as it comes off as arrogant conceit. If his country could build on its own, it would. If they had the ability to construct and innovate and maintain on their own, they would. Instead, they travel halfway across the world to the US. They chase the white man.

They’ve had over 30 years to get their system to work, and instead everything is broken. They can’t even keep their electrical grid and water functioning. And it’s not just South Africa, this is true for much of the third world. In Europe the populace is far more familiar with Africans chasing them, but we see a similar trend with Central and South Americans chasing whites in the US.

Wherever the west builds and creates and improves, the third world demands a piece. They arrive in vast caravans that stretch for miles. They arrive in boats on beaches in the night. They slip across borders and enter illegally like invaders because they see the west as something to be pillaged. They do not want to build their own thing. They don’t even know where to begin. They simply see what we have and they want to take it. They chase us wherever we go because they can’t emulate, they can only confiscate.

In progressive literature white people overall are elevated to the status of ultimate villains – The great oppressors that enslave and destroy. Yet, if this was true, why is it that the third world chases after us so much? You would think they would stay as far away from whites as possible, but they INSIST on immigrating to the west. Or they bitch and moan about our capitalist ways, but they never leave.

By extension, leftists will claim that white people are the “real invaders” that exploit and steal from the third world. In other words, we are “chasing the brown man”. But, if this was the case, then why aren’t white people rushing to migrate to Africa? Why is the western industrial presence in Africa in steep decline? Even black Africans leave Africa in droves when they get the chance to do so. No one is chasing the brown man. This is not a thing. No one covets what a beggar society has.

Now, I see this not as a race issue but as a cultural issue (I’m sure there are people who will debate that sentiment). If you look at countries like Japan or South Korea, they don’t chase white people. They build their own societies and fuel their own progress for the most part. They don’t need white culture or western culture to feed off of (China does, but that’s a whole separate article).

There are societies in the Middle East that remain relatively self sufficient, while others in the Middle East view the west as a target for conquest. The difference is in the culture, not the skin color. And what do most third world cultures have in common? This first thing is an oversupply of AK-47s, the second thing is they tend to be socialist or communist. These are beggar cultures with a beggar mentality.

In the US we can see this same mentality bleeding into parts of our own society. Every time leftist black American’s demand reparations or special privileges in employment and schooling or handouts through DEI programs, they are, in essence, chasing the white man. They want what the white man has and they’re not really shy about saying it. They didn’t build it or earn it but they want it, and if they can’t have it they will just as happily tear it all down.

The phrase “black fatigue” comes to mind, but again, it’s far more about culture than skin color. It’s something that white people like me aren’t supposed discuss.

Frankly, I find race divisions to be a distraction from the bigger problem, which is elitism and the sabotage of the west from within by wealthy oligarchs so that they can replace it with an authoritarian socialist “Utopia”. That said, I cannot ignore the fact that certain minorities in the US tend to lean majority far left, or that most third world migrants hold socialist ideals.

To be sure, there are millions of white woke liberals helping to fuel this fire, but again, most of the black community is happy to be used. These people become the enemy because they have allowed themselves to be weaponized in the hopes of getting a piece of the western pie before whole thing is ransacked. They don’t want to build for themselves, so, they voluntarily become the barbarians at the gate.

My advice to these people is to stop. Stop chasing the white man. Stop trying to feed off the western world. Put in the effort to construct your own great societies with your own accomplishments. No one is stopping you except yourselves. You are being duped into acting as a battering ram for globalism and multiculturalism; you are a tool for deconstructing the west.

By extension, stop coveting what white people have built within your own communities and start seeing such people as valuable allies in creating something better.

If you try to take from them they will eventually retaliate and it will not be a pretty sight. But, the interesting thing about white people (at least the conservative types) is that they will often help you if you ask nicely. Instead of threatening them, maybe try learning from them? Most white people I know love to improve their communities in any way they can, and they enjoy helping people who want to help themselves.

Instead of seeing white people as the enemy because of historic “crimes” which every single ethnic group has been guilty of, why not look to the future? Of course, this would require people in the third world to abandon their socialist leanings. Far left ideology is a poison that makes nations and cultures weak. It makes them perpetual beggars. To improve one’s future, one must aspire to create, not steal.

Why not stop chasing the white man and work with him instead?

In Ireland, Germany, And Japan Locals Fight Back Against Immigrant Crime

In Ireland, Germany, And Japan Locals Fight Back Against Immigrant Crime

Print Friendly and PDF

Ireland, and Europe generally, are suffering an outrageous and preventable wave of murder, rapine, and robbery by immigrants, legal and illegal. Sadly, there are those, including the current Japanese Prime Minister, who want to do to Japan what is happening in Europe and the United States.

The Irish, the Germans, and the Japanese are being forced the invasion of criminal aliens to fight immigration and immigrant-led crime through vigilantism, as if it were San Francisco in 1851 overrun by crime.

Sadly, Japan is going to be experiencing a crime wave similar to what is happening in Europe, led by Muslim and black criminals, because a small minority of the Japanese elite want to remake Japan. This includes the current Prime Minister, Kishida Fumio, below, of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), but the invasion started under the liberal Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ).

The Lying Press in Japan is cheerleading, minimizing the costs of immigration, only telling the story of the joys of diversity. Their lies are so flagrant that now the Lügenpresse is telling the Japanese and the world that Japan is a nation of immigrants. A nation that is now 97.3 percent Japanese, sadly down from 98 percent just a year ago.

Attacks on Kurds rose prominently in spring 2023, with the spread of social media posts demanding they “get out” and calling them “fake refugees.” This coincided with discussions in the Diet on amendments to Japan’s immigration law aimed at thoroughly enforcing the deportation of undocumented foreigners. Meanwhile, many Kurds who had not won recognition as refugees were being given temporary release from immigration detention centers.

Spurred by disputes among Kurds, the bashing intensified, and soon members of the Kurdish community were being bombarded with abusive phone calls and facing xenophobia-fueled demonstrations. However, discrimination remains unjustifiable, regardless of the pretext.

And the cost of these unruly immigrants, legal and illegal, are to be borne by the Japanese, with the gaijin taking no responsibility to acculturate.

The Oizumi town government has put real effort into smoothing the way for foreigners in the community, such as hiring multilingual staff, publishing newsletters in Portuguese and other languages, providing Japanese language classes in all public primary and junior high schools, and supporting local private Japanese language schools. Moreover, the town has set up “cultural interpretation” programs aiming to introduce Japanese culture and manners, and encouraging participants to pass on the lessons to their family and friends.

One would think that the Kurds would have the courtesy to leave their conflict with Turks and among their own clans at home, but the Mountain Turks bring their conflicts with them.

What was once a harmonious and functioning society is slowly being destroyed by the traitor Kishida. Compare the rioting Kurds with what amounts to crime committed by the Japanese.

Apparently a theme train, a unique Japanese cultural expression, had some Detective Conan, a famous anime series, headrest covers stolen.

Chizu Express has announced its intention to file a police report concerning the theft of pillow covers from the ‘Detective Conan Super Hakuto’.

The company has stated that those who return the stolen pillow covers will not be targeted in the report and has requested for the items to be returned via mail.

The ‘Detective Conan Super Hakuto’ is an express train connecting the Keihanshin area and Kurayoshi in approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes. It commenced operations on December 3, 2023. The train is themed after ‘Detective Conan’, whose creator, Gosho Aoyama, hails from Tottori Prefecture. As such, streets, stations, and airports named after ‘Detective Conan’ elements have been established.

You can bet that some of the thieves, more likely otakus than Kurds, will turn themselves in out of shame and embarrassment. Though, thinking about it, I can see an organized group of Kurds stealing these headrest covers deliberately to sell more than I see this many Japanese stealing so many of anything.

This has never happened before on any other themed train, so I will blame the Mountain Turks until I see evidence otherwise. Or perhaps it was other gaijin than Kurds; they as a group are not into anime. Could be blacks like Johnny Somali or other annoying gaijin.

But the stereotype is true: foreigners like Kurds, are only a problem and cost to the Japanese. They have so little self-awareness, they must be trained and disciplined at great cost by the Japanese taxpayer.

But the war is on against homogeneous societies, whether it be Ireland or Japan. The Kurds seem to think that it is the Japanese that must adjust to those who are doing the Great Replacement Japan.

Some Japanese are waking up though. The fight is on!

A couple of years ago, Ayako Lawrence had absolutely no interest in politics. But this month she stood in the election for the upper house of Japan’s Diet as the candidate for Sanseito, a new and rapidly expanding political party that shocked analysts by grabbing a remarkable 1.76 million votes and its first seat in parliament.

Those same observers were particularly taken aback that Sanseito’s policy platforms—extremely conservative, anti-globalist, anti-immigration, in favour  of a complete rewrite of the constitution and sharply increased defence spending—found such a firm following with the electorate, especially younger voters.

The party’s policies have drawn parallels with those of the “America First” campaign laid out by Donald Trump in the run-up to the 2016 US elections.
