I thought I would post this story as a great example of a short-circuited thought process. The cultural wrecking ball is swinging full force these days.
“This is a very personal issue for me,” said Anand, who is the first person of colour to hold the federal government’s purse strings as Treasury Board president.
“I still walk into rooms and look at tables that are not diverse.”
Case in point: in February, Anand walked into a briefing regarding mental-health counselling for Black public-service workers.
There were no Black employees in the room, she said.
“I said to the individuals briefing me: ‘Why aren’t there any Black individuals facing me?’ This is not acceptable.”
Idiot Anand
More incompetence in the name of diversity.
One of the most effective cabinet ministers in Trudeau’s cabinet. How depressing! MP for Oakville which appears to be splitting and both new ridings show a high probability of going conservative so it becomes a case of how much progressiveness (read: damage) can be imparted (inflicted) in eighteen months.
l know what it is.
a billionaire fan of Gilbert and Sullivan is fashioning a play out of real life, a farce.
‘Why aren’t there any Black individuals facing me?’
Because they all require mental health counseling and are thus unfit to make decisions on their own treatment…
Is Anand a person of colour?
Doesn’t look like it.
That was my question? She looks like a ‘W’ woman after a brief afternoon at the beach… with a bottle of SPF 50.
There weren’t any black people in the room because, apparently they all need mental health counseling. Working for government will do that to you.
Classic Progressive Comrade..everything is about skin colour..AKA Race, for her..
But we are the racists?
Every accusation from a progressive …is their confession.
Profoundly useless unserious people.
Who.for the good of civil society, needs a new home.
Home at the C.A.G.E.
Ah yes, the cvnt that ruined DND. Priority one: culture change. How’s DND doing these days?
I don’t know what the problem is. Everyone is aware (or should be) that merit is based on the melanin content of one’s skin. Admittedly, I sometimes get a little confused trying to match up the proper shade with the specific position. There should be a reference material for that process. Interviews would be so much easier with color palettes. You’d be able to hold up the swatch and make a valid decision.
Maybe no Black workers give a hoot about Black mental health. Or they are too busy running cover on the job for the white cat ladies that left their cubicles to go talk about the Blacks mental health. I would Need to use the N werd to get down to the nitty gritty on this one.
Identity politics meets the racial state thuggery of the Jacobins and Bolsheviks obsessed with cultural Marxist pathologies all in a regime that knows no limits on statist intrusion.
I’m sure the goal is to achieve the same level of equity in outcome that South Africa is achieving by seeking equality in hiring in the electrical generation and supply sector. So much progress!
Why are there not more stoopid people here?
The answer is easy, all of those who are black have already figure out how to not work, and don’t need to attend meetings with the political masters in order to avoid real work.
Put Trudeau in on the briefing. Blackface issue solved.
The tables are bad but don’t get me started on how racist the chairs are!
The woman is most obviously a racist extremist.
Anybody who walked into a room where responsible people worked and complained that it was “not acceptable” that there were no black faces would be turned right around and sent right back out of that room to join the ranks of the not-there black faces. The goddamn *hubris* of these idiots.
Why aren’t there any Black individuals facing me?
Because there are fewer black people in Canada than native Indians.
This is just more of the Canadian national inferiority complex. We don’t have anti-black racism in Canada and it’s certainly not institutional. That idea is a US thing. But to prove we’re a Real Country just like the US, we have to import this racial neurosis and prove that we’re better than the US at it.
