Claims to Indigenous heritage can’t be tossed around lightly, Mr. Robinson said.
“Representation is important,” he said. “Just claiming Indigenous identity for your own gain is not something we stand for.”

She said the organization has informed employees that the collective agreements are no longer in effect and their conditions of employment have now changed, as per the Canada Labour Code — referring to the section of the code that covers lockout notices.

Robbie Starbuck strikes again; Walmart is ending their woke policies. I can now exclusively tell you what’s changing and how it happened.
MASSIVE news: Walmart is ending their woke policies. I can now exclusively tell you what’s changing and how it happened.
Last week I told execs at @Walmart that I was doing a story on wokeness there. Instead we had productive conversations to find solutions.

Regulating The Regulators
There’s no point whining about the left’s capture of institutions if you’re not prepared to take them back.
The Alberta government has proposed a review of professional regulatory bodies and how to better protect the right to free expression. In a video announcing the review, to be followed by new legislation next year, Premier Smith said, “What a doctor or lawyer believes or says about politics or religion is not a reflection of their competency to practice medicine or law.”
We don’t have details yet about what this review or legislation will look like, but Premier Smith is absolutely correct to be concerned with the expanded claims by professional regulators to police the off-duty and non-practice related speech of their members. To be clear, these proposals are not restricting the power of regulators to discipline doctors who claim vaccines contain 5G microchips, or accountants who sexually harass clients, or lawyers who hire private surveillance to stalk judges in their cases. This is about regulators claiming authority to silence the political, cultural, social, and religious opinions of their members.
I’ve written extensively on the topic of free speech and professional regulation, including in a paper published by the MacDonald Laurier Institute. Every Canadian has a constitutionally guaranteed right to freedom of expression, including those in regulated professions. Many Canadians are part of regulated professions and have felt the chill of saying things that may be unpopular, even when unrelated to their professional work as a doctor, lawyer, nurse, or accountant.
This is an essential legislative step that needs to be duplicated here, and it needs some teeth: high dollar penalties for regulators that abuse their power, and restitution to the wrongly targeted.
“A University of Oregon official has been placed on administrative leave…”
Sorry laddie, we didn’t make the new rules. But those are the new rules.
Breathe deeply and savor the musky scent of broken leftist dreams. Mmmmmmm. Smells like freedom! Now, we must get busy pummeling our enemies. Some silly people will say that you shouldn’t kick an opponent when he’s down. That’s actually the best time to kick him.

“the Board of Directors of SIGA Technologies terminated Dr. Jay Varma, effective immediately”
Sorry guys. We didn’t make the new rules, but those are the new rules.
“Varma boasted about harassing people into submission over the vaccine mandate and admitted to participating in illegal sex parties, all while he, former Health Commissioner Dr. David Chokshi, and then-Mayor Bill de Blasio imposed draconian measures that shut down the entire city,” the Queens Democrat said.
“The hypocrisy is outrageous.”
Varma’s seamy chats — which included him boasting, “I did all this deviant, like sexual stuff,” and, “I had to be kind of sneaky about it … because I was running the entire COVID response in the city” — were made public last week by conservative podcaster Steven Crowder.
The Wig Is Doing A Lot Of Heavy Lifting
Readers will note how “listening to the community” is conceived by Mr Bucholtz as deference and prostration, and regurgitating things that are obviously untrue. If it sounds like a struggle session, hold that thought.
Further to this, some additional thoughts.

“It’s not in the best interest of our state or our nation to have the same federal agencies seeking to prosecute Donald Trump leading this investigation. … The public deserves to know the truth about how this assassination [attempt] came to be.”
“This original article represents the opinions of a political personality but does not reflect the opinions of the publishers of ELLE Canada…”

Complain About Sexual Harassment, Get Fired
Blacklocks- NDPers Breach Labour Law
“He had engaged in sexual harassment, workplace harassment, discrimination on the basis of sex, abuse of authority and creation of a toxic workplace,” wrote Jasbir Parmar, the arbitrator in the case. The woman was fired “through no fault of her own,” she said.
Evidence showed the caucus took one year to act on complaints from an employee at the Party’s constituency office in Elliot Lake, Ont.
“… he then ordered me to be forcibly dragged out of the court by the police and remanded to prison.”

The co-founder of Extinction Rebellion has been given a record five-year prison sentence after a judge said he had “crossed the line from concerned campaigner to fanatic”.
Roger Hallam was found guilty of conspiring to block traffic as part of a Just Stop Oil campaign on the M25 over four days of disruption in November 2022.
The Attorney General was under pressure on Thursday night to intervene over the sentences meted out to Mr Hallam, who also set up Just Stop Oil, and his co-conspirators, which are the longest for non-violent protest in living memory.
Four other eco-activists were each given four-year sentences after they were found guilty of conspiring to block traffic on the M25.
New Rules
They were warned they wouldn’t like them.
There’s some controversy about this because it’s unpleasant. But here’s the thing. We’re betraying our own powerless people if we don’t use the power we have to protect them by making the side that imposed these new rules feel the costs.
We have tried reason. We have tried appeals to simple justice. They have failed. Now we need to apply punishment. They need to know there is a cost to this. If we fail to impose a cost on them for doing this because doing so is unpleasant, we have betrayed our own people and left them exposed. The left will not stop unless it has reason to. This is reason to.
Sometimes you have to be stern.
