… Epping said of curling in general.

“We need to take action,” said John Epping, a Toronto curler who is one of the few openly gay athletes in the country.

“We need more curlers in the game in general, period.”

This is where Dr. Richard Norman comes in.

Norman was recently hired as the director of community futures and innovation by Curling Canada and one of his primary roles is to promote diversity, equity and inclusion within the sport.

With a unique PhD in sports and society, with a focus on race and colonialism in the sport of curling, he has been on the job for six months and is making strides toward growing the game …

Narrative Massacre

More Pavilions At Folkfest There Goes The Narrative We Are All Treaty People 9 Comments

Looking for a Christmas gift that eviscerates a common historical narrative for yourself or a like-minded family member? If you’re undecided, here’s a review that goes over the main points of Flynn-Paul’s work.

Alleged massacres resulted in the deaths of less than 1% of the Indian population and numbers in the thousands, not millions–a record long obscured thanks to Stannard’s embellishment of native population estimates. Colonialism is not an outgrowth of capitalism because the church and nobility were fervently opposed to such economic systems. The “logic of tribal anarchy” meant no land was in possession of one tribe for more than a few generations and natives were invariably locked in intratribal disputes. No evidence exists that settlers engaged in biological warfare by giving natives smallpox-laced blankets. In fact, Thomas Jefferson established an immunization program for Indians, going so far as to task Lewis and Clark with disseminating the smallpox vaccine on their famed expedition.

National Post- Terry Glavin: Canadians go full European on immigration skepticism

And after all the obscene celebrations of the Hamas “resistance” operation that involved the sadistic mass murder of more than 1,200 Israelis in the Oct. 7 Simchat Torah pogrom, Canadians have had their fill of it.

The Leger poll showed that 75 per cent of respondents backed the notion that non-citizens should be deported if they publicly express hatred towards a minority group or support a terrorist organization.

Import your doctors, import their disease: A Wave of Jew-Hatred in the Medical Fields

Several doctors publicly celebrated the savagery that Hamas inflicted upon Israel, which featured barbarism that rivals some of the darkest episodes of human history. Dr. Shiraz Farooq took to social media to post a Palestinian flag with the caption “about time!!!” As of today it appears he is still leading the ColoWell proctology clinic in Tampa, Florida. Dr. Majd Aburabia, the medical director of a cancer center in Dearborn, Michigan, posted on social media: “What a beautiful morning. What a beautiful day,” referencing the musical Oklahoma! to express joy about the Hamas assault. An update posted by Stop Antisemitism claims that her employment at Beaumont Hospital was terminated, but as of today she is still listed as an employee on the hospital’s website. Dr. Abeer Abou Yabis, a physician at the Emory Winship Cancer Institute, similarly took to social media to celebrate Hamas’ attack, writing “They got walls we got gliders glory to all resistance fighters.” She is no longer employed at Emory. Dr. Dana Diab commented on Instagram that “Zionist settlers” got “a taste of their own medicine.” She was subsequently fired from her ER physician job at Lenox Hill. Raeda Saeed, a registered nurse in the Chicago area, sent a direct message expressing her desire that a Chicago-area mother and daughter who were kidnapped be “burned alive and fed to Israel dogs.” It’s unclear if she has faced any professional consequences.

Mass Graves, Mass Psychosis

Mattias Desmet’s book The Psychology of Totalitarianism details the rise of mass formations in which crowd psychology behaves like an engine with no governor. These movements begin with an initial incident that soon takes on a life of its own as narratives spin out of control into outright absurdity. The current obsession with alleged graves in residential schools seems to fit that bill.

“They should not be pursuing those who are revealing information. They should, in fact, be looking for those records. They should be looking at what it is that we do know, as opposed to trying to pursue witnesses.”

“Many are in unmarked graves, but there are also accounts of bodies that were buried within walls. There are bodies buried in the hills or by river sides, and bodies that were never found after children died trying to escape the schools,” she said.

Dublin’s Night Of Folkfest

The Irish seem done with it: Riots are breaking out in Dublin and immigration centres are being set on fire after todays stabbing attack on children.

Holiday Inn Express on Fire in Dublin Where Hundreds of Illegal Migrants Are Reportedly Being Held

Looting in progress, to drive home the point I suppose.

Some thoughts on the day’s events, if I may:

When thousands of people protested peacefully in East Wall, and in other communities across Dublin and the country, their reward was not to be recognised or engaged with for their peaceful political participation.

Their reward was rather to be called far right, deplorable, and the dregs of Irish society. The thing against which they protested happened anyway.

When peaceful mothers and women said, on camera, that they feared for their safety as a result of an influx of immigrant men, often into communities with no amenities for those men, their reward was to be accused of fearmongering.

There are those, clutching for a gotcha, who will say something like “aha, but today’s suspect/person of interest is a naturalised Irish citizen”. But does it speak well of an immigration system that naturalises people capable (allegedly) of such acts? Does that inspire confidence, or does it sound like patronising nonsense?

There are those who sincerely believe, apparently, that the duty of media organisations is to suppress facts, like nationality, in order to maintain public order. But if the suppression of facts is required to maintain public order, then we have many bigger problems. And we do.

A huge section of people in this country feel as if they are unheard and their concerns ignored. 1,000 people marched in Rosslare at the weekend. Did you hear about it? When Danny Healy Rae raised the case of Killarney this week in the Dáil, a colleague responded with a sweary tirade of abuse. Is this democracy?

When a young man, last week, linked the murder of his beloved girlfriend to Ireland’s immigration policies, the media dutifully left that bit out of their coverage.

Every single effort has been made to silence people. Today, they made themselves heard. I wish they had chosen another way.

And then I remember: They did. And you all refused to listen.

Great Moments In Socialism It's Probably Nothing More Pavilions At Folkfest 26 Comments

In a nation as mired in economic chaos as South Africa is, exports that earn foreign currency are the only thing literally keeping the lights on to the extent that they are. But if the current government has its way, a huge portion of that earning potential will soon be blocked.

South African farms deemed “too white” will no longer be able to export their produce to the UK and the EU, according to postings in the Government Gazette, the Johannesburg-based City Press newspaper reported.

Under the rules, farmers must meet specific Black economic empowerment targets to continuing obtaining export permits.
