Meet the Misandrists of Ryerson University’s Students’ Union Executive
Charles Adler has an interesting editorial about strange happenings at Ryerson University in Toronto. It’s a follow-up of this article:
[The Ryerson Students’ Union (RSU)] is afraid of three students–two of them women–starting a men’s issues group.
Despite the constant rhetoric about diversity, equity and inclusion, the RSU cannot tolerate ideologies that run counter to its own. The irony of this patronizing attitude towards campus freedom is hard to miss. It’s as if the spirit of closed-minded religious dogma has jumped into bed with modern political correctness to prevent blasphemy against RSU ideological orthodoxy.
The principle is this: if you challenge official narrative, you don’t have the right to speak. But this is supposed to be a university–a place where we learn and debate in an open environment; where those we disagree with are challenged, not with censorship, but with other ideas. To agree to disagree and to respectfully debate–this is true tolerance.
So no one forgets, let’s clearly remember the 5 anti-Canadian bigots who comprise the Students’ Union Executive. Expect them to be running as NDP candidates in a riding near you in the not too distant future!
Yes. Next Question.

Fisker Automotive, the struggling, government-backed hybrid sports car maker, terminated most of its rank-and-file employees on Friday, in a last-ditch effort to conserve cash and stave off a potential bankruptcy filing […]
About 160 employees were terminated at a Friday morning meeting at Fisker’s Anaheim, California, headquarters, according to a second source who attended the meeting. They were told that the company could not afford to give them severance payments.

Reward success, Punish cheats
Tony Merchant is fairly notorious in Saskatchewan circles, deserved or not. Many people react to the name with a an upturned eyebrow and a smirk. Anyone familiar with David Orchard’s reputation in the province is by default familiar with Mr. Merchant’s reputation.
He is, by all accounts, an excellent class-action lawyer and as such, richly deserves the rewards that our justice system allows in those types of suits. Whether they are justified or more akin to ambulance chasing is secondary. They are allowed in law and as such Mr. Merchant has every right and responsibility to make as much for his clients and himself as possible.
And that’s why the allegations regarding taxes and hidden money really gets my goat.
A prominent Canadian lawyer, husband to a Liberal senator, moved nearly $2 million to secretive financial havens while he was locked in battle with the Canada Revenue Agency over his taxes, according to documents in a massive leak of offshore financial data that were shared exclusively in Canada with CBC News.
Make a pile of money doing something most people don’t really want to be associated with, well done. Try and cheat the country out of it’s share; whose laws allowed the pile in the first place, very wrong.
(Note: Liberal lawyer in this story. Watch your comments.)
March Jobs Reports
The US: “The unemployment rate fell to 7.6%, amid a drop in Labor Force Participation.”
Canada: “Following an increase the previous month, employment declined by 55,000 in March, all in full time. The unemployment rate rose 0.2 percentage points to 7.2%.”
Saskatchewan: “While employment in Saskatchewan was little changed in March, the province experienced the strongest year-over-year growth in the country, at 4.6%. The unemployment rate was 3.9% in March, still the lowest among all provinces.”
Note, CDN numbers are not comparable to US numbers, different means of measurement. As I understand it, if the US followed CDN metrics, the US would be around 13-14% unemployed.

Low Capacity Democrat, On High Capacity Magazines
Is the NDP’s Jinny Sims a Misogynist?
Jinny Sims appears to be one very confused Member of Parliament. In a recent Globe & Mail article she was quoted as saying that, “references to barbaric practices might stigmatize some cultures”. She was criticizing a new 146 page document from Jason Kenney’s Citizenship & Immigration department.
In the modern Leftist Game of Victimology and Moral Relativism, it seems that Sims’ initial gut reaction was that the rights of “Ethnic” Men Who Beat Up Women trumped the rights of those Women Who Are Beat Up. Minister Kenney explains the whole thing here to Charles Adler.
Since being called out on her peculiar views, Ms. Sims is now backtracking, issuing endless tweets against domestic violence.
Unspreading The Wealth
I’ve got news for you, Ontario, when it comes to being jobbed by Confederation, you’ve got nothing on Alberta. Last year Mowat calculated that Albertans sent a similar amount more to Ottawa than the province received in return – and Alberta has one-quarter of Ontario’s population.
But the issue here is the folly of Canada’s vast system of interprovincial wealth transfers called equalization. When even Ontario begins whining that it deserves billions more in equalization, you know the system has become so dysfunctional that the best action would just be to dismantle the whole scheme.
