A group called Mohawk Mothers has been seeking to delay/block McGill U’s “New Vic” project in Montreal—based on claims of secret burials & unmarked Indigenous graves on the site. Today, @mcgillu’s provost reported that no graves were found, including in areas identified by GPR... Image
(no word yet on whether McGill's leadership team will be indicted on charges of "denialism")

By the way, can anybody find a news source where this has been public reported? If any remains had been found (here or anywhere), it would be leading every news broadcast. It'd be odd if the opposite news were confined to an internal McGill email
McGill managed to do a large scale professional search of the area in a matter of several months.... notwithstanding the various media reports about how culturally and ritually complicated such a search might be. It's now been well over 2 years since the Kamloops claim...

I spoke to Richard a few times. He was publicly denounced by an equity consultant hired by TDSB to tell white ppl how racist they are. Richard questioned her absurd claims, & the woman used him as a case study in evil "whiteness"
This is what's become of TDSB under @TDSBDirector
There's a recording of this equity consultant hysterically attacking Richard for his supposed racistness. In the fullness of time, it should all be made public. This tragic episode gives us a window into the sadistic mindset of the fanatics who've taken over our school boards
last year, Richard brought me in as a guest speaker for a Toronto group concerned about the state of education. I learned Richard wasn't a conservative. He was a progressive who'd seen the harm that social justice fanaticism causes to society. He tried to be part of the solution

a lot of parents are now telling me that their teenagers' social media feeds, especially TikTok, have started to shift 180 degrees on genderwang. the once-revered (bio-male) trans "influencers" & athletes are becoming figures of ridicule. pendulum seems to be swinging back hard
Teenagers aren't dumb, but they do move in herds. The genderwang stuff was fun when it felt vaguely transgressive and daring. Now that they hear their dinosaur teachers and parents mumbling pronoun checks (not to mention the Bud Light & Hershey's fiascos), it's time to move on
I'm trying to guess what the next fad will be. Maybe putting shoe polish on your face & calling yourself transracial. I know that sounds insane, but it's actually less idiotic (& will do less medical damage) to depressed goths than sterilizing themselves in the name of genderwang

I've been struck by this too. Most Canadians are sensible. But then u find surreal college-town clusters of wealthy white paranoiacs convinced they all have long covid & that we inhabit a white supremacist genocide state (whose sins must be expiated by baby-jesus drag queens)...
Since these people don't leave campus or their homes to mix with commoners (shopping is done online, & they often work from home), they've been left to create a bizarrely cultish sub-society that exists, in electronic form, in a way that's completely detached from real life....
For the rest of us, it's like living next to a cult commune whose inhabitants are seen only on rare occasions. When we do see em, we're gobsmacked, which is why these things go viral on social media: insane DEI sessions, Karens freaking out on service workers, mask fanaticism etc

This person ("they/her," naturally) is the Associate Director of the Centre for Learning & Teaching at @DalhousieU .... This is their/her reaction to the lifting of mask mandates at the university Image

The takeaway here is that this esteemed academic has just outed them/her/zhèlves as a functionary at an institution her/they has identified as a fascistic hate group.

This story gets weirder...That @uOttawa prof (and "queer legal historian") who claimed today that RBC bank employees started randomly taunting him homophobically and then threatening his life (because yeah, that always happens at the bank).... He's a former RBC employee Image
He also worked for desjardins and... Surprise, surprise.... Claims to keep witnessing racism at desjardins ! ImageImage
Wow, the guy's got a lot of issues with banks! They're homophobic, racist and.... Anglophobic! Image
