  1. It’s like the jingle: “I’m a victim, you’re a victim, wouldn’t you want to be a victim too ?”

  2. Jonathan Kay is totally pro-vax, and pro-vax pass. I cannot imagine listening to a single thing he says.

    1. If that includes not listening to Orwell, I’d say you’re cheating yourself. But go ahead.

  3. That quote from 1984 is all too familiar from my days at Armpit College. Many of the kiddies misbehaved, even cheated, and they knew they could get away with it. Woe betide anyone they disliked…..

  4. When the Red Chinese are really running the island, let’s see what she says then and if she moves ‘back’.

    1. When you consider that the Warsaw Pact countries were effectively vassal states and colonies of the USSR, it would not be a stretch to see how the Chicoms would run them in a similar manner.

      In order to change leadership or make any significant policy changes, the Combloc regimes needed to get permission from Moscow first, and would have to comply with any conditions demanded of them. Failure to do so was punished. As a glaring example, one of the biggest reasons for the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia was to crush Alexander Dubsec’s unauthorized experiment in multi-party communist democracy.

      1. Dubcek could have got away with the changes if he did not stick his finger into Brezhnev’s, Gromyko’s and all the rest of the ‘brotherly’ communists eyes.
        Dubcek, in his time was much like Trump, DeSantis, Poilievre of today. He was breaking all the rules.
        The place, being a small country did not matter that much, in the big scheme of things it showed the world how corrupt the socialist, communists extremists were and are today.
        The socialist’s and communist’s extremism is a steady state, it’s not as though there is a moderate or any other state.
        Apparently the world does not learn from history.
        I have lived it.

    2. Yeah … they’re likely to “bully” her over her kinky hair. Right? I’ve never known of ANYONE to “bully” someone over their curly hair. That’s an utter myth. Except !! … when some bitchy rival girl makes fun of some bitches appearance. Now THAT happens every day … but it’s not raycism… it’s catty, bitchyness. It’s “mean girl” shit.

  5. I’m left wondering what precisely she’s left mourning colonialism having stolen from her – enslavement? Being worked to death on the salt pans? Cannibalism by marauding Caribbe Indians? Sounds like paradise to me… /sarc

  6. Hmmmm…sounds like she worked the security detail at Pearson Airport at one point in her sad life. The only place I know where the “colonized” are encouraged to get into the faces of shoeless “colonizers” while bag wearing globetrotters in wheelchairs just roll on through unmolested.

    Y’know, you can always go back, hon.

  7. So – is it up to me to tell her she’s really white? Her cries of racism are as believable as those of Rachel Dolezal. Every kid is bullied sometimes in school. Bullies use low hanging fruit – if it is race so be it. White people get bullied too. She is critical of her father who has pride that drives him to determine his own destiny rather than piss and moan how the game is rigged.

    1. Scar..

      Exactly…don’t like it here..?
      Then kindly bugger off bk..no.?

      Typical BS Race sob story from that SHITSTAIN of a media outlet..what else is new.

      Typical Leftist Progressive mewling brat…

    1. This!

      Every grievance group (HELLO INDIANS) should live by these words. Their lives will improve, when they stop dragging around their skeletons through their lives.

      It’s impossible to move forward, when you’re always looking backwards.

  8. “She wears her curly hair with pride”. Meanwhile bio on bottom of article she has smooth straight hair.

    1. Makes her … white adjacent. Now she has to HATE HERSELF. Oops … too late … she already hates herself

  9. Good grief. Me, me, me, I, I, I, wah, wah, wah.
    Who doesn’t have tales of brutality that afflicted their ancestors at some point?
    That’s why a tremendous number of second, third, fourth, fifth… generation Canadians are here instead of back where their ancestors came from, regardless of their skin colour or what continent they were on.

    Her dad denies what colonization ‘stole from us’.
    Like so many others, she denies what it eventually provided her. She looks rather comfortable.

    1. My French ancestors burned some little “trans” girl at the stake !!! Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Mommmaaaaaaaa. Do I need to apologize to the Queers?

  10. The young, woke progressive embraces their victimhood. Victimhood is status in Jillian Sunderland’s circles and it confers privileges now. Her noble father rejected being a victim and worked hard to be successful in life. For his reward he got a spoiled daughter who was indoctrinated with a mind virus at the University of Toronto.
    Her father sounds like a great man to share a drink or to have as a neighbour. Too bad she isn’t.

    1. Exactly.

      Only in Canada can someone complain for having an (unwilling) ear in which to moan about the unfairness of Western life.

  11. Dear Jillian,
    You don’t have any Bahan roots, because they don’t exist. Barbados was uninhabited at the time the English colonized it. They brought West African slaves and indentured Catholic Irish slaves to the island. The West African slaves were bought by the Dutch from Africans, and sold to the English plantation owners. So your roots would be colonial English and whatever remnants of African culture the slaves managed to maintain over the centuries.

    1. Thankyou for stating the obvious. I was going to say more or less what you did.

  12. There are no Bajan roots without British colonization. British colonization is the root.
    I note that the Caribs were also oppressive colonizers who arrived in the 1300s.

  13. The silly creature is more than welcome to reject Western influences and move to a country where women are treated like chattel and education is a distant dream for many (just like running water).

  14. This is interesting,
    Many years ago, some affairs, can’t remember what about, involving central European country run by communists, the CeeBeeCee called me up.
    Have no idea how they came about that, nonetheless they wanted to ask about something.
    Had to tell them that I don’t do communist propaganda.
    They hanged up.

  15. “Maybe someday, my father and I will come to understand one another.”

    Maybe. If you get over yourself before he dies.

    1. One of the signs you’ve reached adulthood is when you stop blaming your parents and other people for your problems.

      1. Indeed. Silly little stories are inevitably penned by silly little people.

        The poor dear is at serious risk of suffering shoulder dislocation from patting herself on the back for being so culturally aware and hip in comparison to her old man. She’s using the poor guy as a trampoline to achieve some kind of moral elevation.

  16. Ask a taxi driver from Barbados what they think of immigrants from Jamaica.

  17. Poor Jillian Sunderland.

    Father works to legally immigrate.
    Costs money, time and family.
    Leaves old life behind; likely for just reasons.
    Offspring granted better opportunities; one even becomes PhD candidate.
    PhD ‘candidate’ uses her own ‘privilege’ to publicly slander father.

    1. My parents and I have a similar story about immigrating and establishing ourselves in this country. I went on to earn a Ph. D. but I wear my blue-collar upbringing with pride.

  18. Other than creating racial hatred and envy and divisiveness, what is the CBC’s mandate?
    What do they do other than try to get Canadians to hate each other?

    This seems to be a poor use of tax dollars.

  19. Slavery was very common among First Nations in Canada as it was in all cultures throughout the world. I have seen estimates that indigenous nations enslaved approximately 15% of their populations. For instance, the famous Mohawk leader Joseph Brant (Tyendinega) for whom the City of Brantford is named, was a slave owner in Upper Canada. He owned indigenous and black slaves. He held a commission from the king as a British army officer and fought on the British side in the American revolutionary war. There is a statue of Brant in Ottawa and another in Victoria Park in Brantford. Why hasn’t the woke mob torn these down? Why hasn’t Brantford renamed itself?

    Jillian Sutherland correctly bemoans the mistreatment of First Nations by the Crown in Canada while not giving much credit to the Crown which ended slavery throughout the British empire and most of the world in the in the 1830s – at a vast cost to the British treasury. (Certain Muslim countries, of course, retain slavery to this day.)

  20. Here’s a thought. She can go live some place like Rwanda or Zimbabwe, and see just what kind of paradise she is missing out on by living in proximity to all of us horrible white folk. Just saying.

  21. “My dad denies what colonization stole from us”

    She denies what colonization gave to her.
    Would she be going to the university of Toronto if Canada and Barbados hadn’t been colonized?
    She has the luxury of being stupid and oblivious.

  22. Speaking of “colony”…WNBA star and staunch anti American Brittney Griner was sentenced 9 years to a colony herself…A Russian penal colony that is for drug smuggling. I don’t know what goes on there but it doesn’t sound like fun. The movie Papillon comes to mind.
    How you likin’ those apples Grinster?

  23. // Jillian Sunderland wants to embrace her Bajan roots, but her dad seems intent to hold onto the British traditions he grew up with before Barbados gained independence. //

    I guess it depends on which British traditions are at issue:

    Once dubbed “Little England,” Barbados was Britain’s first slave and was under British rule from 1625 to 1966. Slavery in the Caribbean was unique in its brutality as plantation owners chose to work the enslaved people to death and decided it was more profitable to buy newly imported slaves than provide for their survival. Profits from these sugar plantations helped line the pockets of the English settlers and the monarchy.

    Why did faraway powers contend so fiercely over such things? Tiny Barbados provides an answer. By the mid-1660s, just three decades or so after England initiated an African slave-labour model for its plantations there […]
    sugar from Barbados was worth more than the metal exports of all of Spanish America.

    While Jillian’s dad was growing up, Britain was still making payments to the descendants of slave-owners
    for having emancipated their property.

  24. Shame CBC has no comments sections on such self pitying drivel.
    I WAS HOPING TO READ SOME CBC FAITHFUL FEEDBACK.
    Caplock strikes again.
    Strange how decent well rounded people wish all others, joy and rich living,where as losers demand that all be miserable losers ,just like them..
    And this Privileged First World Whiner is a genuine loser,she was programmed for CBC..A perfect product to consumer match.
    Take pride Canada,this is what a “public Education System” produces.
