It has been asked of me whether I see systemic racism in Canada and I do. This will be a thread, "I see it..." #IseeIt 1/17

@LaserAud @ParksCanada Fair point. Just highlighting the core story, that the vast majority of prairie pioneers were first generation immigrants. But you’re absolutely right, some were from older central Canadian families who moved West. All of them were courageous, resourceful people.

.@ParksCanada is entrusted with preserving and celebrating Canadian history. So why do they constantly denigrate our history? The story of our Prairie pioneers is noble and inspiring: immigrants arriving with nothing but dreams and a bottomless work ethic who overcame unthinkable adversity to build communities and feed the world. It’s an exciting story worth telling and celebrating. If academic historians want to indulge their obsession with grievance studies, let them do so in obscure journals that no one reads. But please stop remaking our museums and heritage sites into woke-left political agitprop. The culture warriors at @ParksCanada should be fired and replaced by people who are actually proud of Canada, and have a sense of gratitude for those who built it.

Historical revisionists @ParksCanada come for old Saskatchewan homestead, say tribute to sodbusters must be reimagined to tell story of "inequities on the Prairies."  blacklocks.ca/old-homestead-… #cdnpoli #skpoli @PremierScottMoe

Unthinkable adversity in this case: Ignoring the colonization and genocidal practices of a government giving them “opportunities”. “Look away child…” Talk about revisionist history or the more commonly known, whitewashing of history.

@Hezbolsonaro The racist urge to question what racism is. 😂 The white saviour narrative is ingrained in the mainstream parties, in their supporters and the bots programmed to flood social media with their cognitive dissonance.

OneBC is a deeply racist and toxic party that nobody voted for, and which should and can be relegated to irrelevance. That a leadership candidate for a mainstream party wants to intentionally legitimize them and give them a path to power is nauseating.
Rob Shaw@RobShaw_BC

NEW - @yuri_fulmer announces a deal with OneBC's @Dallas_Brodie that if he wins @Conservative_BC leadership OneBC will not run candidates in 88 or 93 ridings and Conservatives will not run in 5 ridings to pave path for OneBC. Plus a confidence and supply agreement with Brodie.

Under your leadership Ravi, there is no forest sector left in BC. Completely decimated under you and the BC NDP’s leadership. Just sit this one out. You will go down as at the worst forestry minister in the history of the province. That is your legacy.
Ravi Parmar@rparmar_BC

We’ve seen Caroline Elliott’s vision for forestry. She worked for the BC Liberals, and for over 16 years they lost 45,000 direct forestry jobs and more than 100,000 indirect jobs. Now she’s bringing that same approach to the BC Cons. BC Cons would sell out forestry workers.

@gnelsonII @wyatt_claypool We don't need to understand a dated feudal system. We wouldn't put up with direct descendents of 19th century prime ministers Macdonald MacKenzie Abbott Thompson Boswell Tupper Laurier. In democracies today, leaders are elected on merit. Not because of their mommy and daddy.

Jason Kenney claiming Wab Kinew’s speech is racist while being racist in assuming an Indigenous man doesn’t understand geopolitics
Jason Kenney 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇮🇱@jkenney

I’ll be generous by assuming this line came from a speechwriter, and that the Premier didn’t know that it’s verbatim Iranian regime propaganda, widely used as an antisemitic dog whistle. But he degrades himself and his office by turning the murderous nature and genocidal intent of the Islamic Republic into a cheap political punchline. Does he think the regime’s advanced efforts to build nuclear weapons and use them to “turn the little Satan (Israel) into a ball of fire” is a joke? Does he understand the regime is detested by the overwhelming majority of the Iranian people, who desperately hope that this military campaign will accelerate the end of the Mullahs’ reign of terror? Does he have zero understanding of the decades of violence and terror spread by the regime’s proxies across the world, from the hundreds of thousands murdered by the Iranian backed Assad regime, to the decades violent Jew hatred of Hamas & Hizbollah? Does he think it is a mere distraction to stop Iran from building 100 ballistic missiles every month, some with a range that can strike Europe? I’ve had high regard for Premier Kinew, despite our political differences. I hope this was just a monetary lapse in judgement. But I fear it reflects the Canadian left’s brain dead embrace of even the worst regimes if they are opposed by Israel and the United States.

If you hear "Epstein class" and immediately think someone is talking about Jews, you are both outrageously stupid and antisemitic The phrase has recently been popularized by US Senator Jon Ossoff who is Jewish
Selina Robinson@SelinaMRobinson

What happened to the @WabKinew who was sensitive to racism and antisemitism? Let the Epstein class fight Epstein war … WTF - you do know this is code for Jews right? The @ndp the @bcndp and the @ndpmanitoba have all lost their way. The Jew hate is real.

@jmatthew42 Imagine asking people who have never needed (let alone seen) an escalator a question about escalators. Then judging them on it. Biased metrics have always favoured the so called ruling class. C. Elliot’s FB “survey” is very much biased metrics.

IQ tests are ethnocentric. if you do not partake in the culture and do not have the same life experience You will always score less. It is a built in system to promote certain cultures And deny others. They accused me of cheating because I scored high scores An "Indian" ...
Maximum atheist@Maximumatheist

Think about it.. your IQ has to be pretty low to be convinced there’s a magic being in the sky that will torture you for all eternity if you touch your naughty bits. And ironically it also needs your money.

@jkenney Sounds like you don’t want the EF to come to light and you’re using your platform of hypocrisy to suppress them. Either that or an educated Indigenous Man as Premiere is an affront to you. Either way, your racism is showing.

WOW Probably the best explanation I’ve seen: EVERY CANADIAN NEEDS TO WATCH, how harmful UNDRIP has been & how awful DRIPA OR ANY VARIATION is to any province and our country. The madness needs to end.
Caroline Elliott@NVanCaroline

DRIPA is one of the biggest issues facing BC and many people don’t even know what it is or means. Undemocratic decisions over your land, your jobs, your future, and dividing British Columbians based on ancestry. I explain it all here. Help me repeal it: WinForBC.ca

It’s a 🐂 💩 survey because even if you oppose Caroline Elliot’s racist platform of anti-Indigenousness, you can’t register your opposition. Typical sycophantic propagandist politics.

Propaganda Caroline Elliot is utilizing social media like the Fraser institute utilized their own formula for the Foundation Skills Assessment. Culturally biased with the result preordained. Last page of survey forces “support for” just to submit. BS survey.

“How is she racist?” Uhh, her racist rhetoric & myopic view of being right about one tree in a forest of trees. Seriously, are racists that unaware of themselves? Is their racism so normalized that willful ignorance is acceptable?

324 views in a 9 hour post. That’s it, I’m calling it. Widdowson’s 15 minutes are pretty much up. The idiocy to post a 3-4 month countdown to an announcement anniversary is just desperation for relevancy.
