By 2025, she demands that all ''companies with whom she does business to ensure that at least one key creative position – producer, director, writer, showrunner and lead performer – is held by members of visible minorities, Indigenous Peoples, persons with disabilities and members of the LGBT community''
In 2019 she compared Netflix to colonialism in India and Africa.
"I was thinking about the British Empire and how, if you were there and you were the viceroy of India, you would feel that you were doing only good for the people of India. Or similar, if you were in French Africa, you would think, I’m educating them, I’m bringing their resources to the world, and I’m helping them. There was a time when cultural imperialism was absolutely accepted. Fast forward to what happens after imperialism and the damage that can do to local communities. So all I would say is, let us be mindful of how it is we as Canadians respond to global companies coming into our country."
This year she laid off 10% of the CBC's workforce, cutting 600 positions to deal with a a $125-million budget deficit, but wouldn't rule out paying CBC executives huge bonuses.
''Over $99 million in bonuses was awarded to employees at the public broadcaster between 2015 and 2022.''
''CBC defines its bonus program as a 'short-term incentive plan.'''
She supports Twitter censorship.
“As head of a media organization which values freedom of speech and of the press, I would prefer that Twitter take meaningful action on its own to address this problem,” wrote Tait.
She is working with the Trudeau government to create legislation to deal with “online hate.”
“We have been sharing our mounting concerns with the Canadian government, which is proposing legislation to address online hate. There is significant public support for such legislation,” wrote Tait.
on CBC Kids News, her network explains drag queens to kids.
Here are some DEI programs at the CBC that she created.
She commits to racial quotas in her DEI plan.
''Half of all new hires for executive and senior management positions will be Indigenous people, racialized people, or people with disabilities''
''retention and promotion rates for people from these three groups will be doubled''
In addition to her ~$500k salary last year, while the CBC ran a budget deficit of $125 million, she ran up $119,309 in personal expenses.
''Expenses included $12,841 for a 2022 Tokyo conference of Public Broadcasters International; $12,673 for a 2022 European tour to London, Brussels and Geneva; $12,220 to Lausanne, Switzerland, in 2021 for discussions with the International Olympic Committee; $10,334 for a 2023 Prague conference of Public Broadcasters International; $9,841 for a 2022 trip to Hollywood for meetings with production industry representatives; and $9,648 for a 2022 trip to London for a discussion on threats facing journalists.''
During the Canadian trucker 'Freedom Convoy', the CBC repeatedly spread the conspiracy theory that 'Russian actors' were potentially funding and fueling the protests
According to the CBC's gender transition/affirmation guide, EVERYONE MUST USE PROPER NAMES AND PRONOUNS TO ADDRESS THE TRANSITIONING EMPLOYEE.
It could be hurtful to refer to someone by the wrong name and pronouns once you have established which set they prefer.

Ali Alexander (born Ali Abdul-Razaq Akbar) is a serial predator sex pest who, for the past ~8 years, has been Nick Fuentes’ closest friend, colleague, and confidant.
Every villain has an origin story; in 2006, Ali was arrested for ‘‘stealing Five MP3 Players, Twenty CDs, Three Camcorders, Two DVD Players, One Back Massager, One Clock, Four Shirts, Two Belts, and a Piece of Luggage from a woman's home.’’ He was then arrested again for ‘‘breaking into someone's car, stealing his debit cards and property.’’
@Milo: ‘‘Nothing has hurt Nick like his defiant refusal to excommunicate Ali Alexander, whose youngest victim was 9 when Ali began to groom him, and 12 when Ali first forcibly sodomized him. Nick has known about Ali’s crimes for years. They still talk every day … of course, the truth is Nick doesn’t just look the other way for years. He actively aided and abetted Ali’s sex crimes … When Ali does get in a hotel room with one of them (say, after a protest, or maybe at AFPAC), all he wants to do is suck them off… whether they want it or not.’’
🚨Fed Governor Lisa Cook Lisa Cook relied on the work of @RyanDEnos in her article Racial Segregation and Southern Lynching to push critical race theory and to quantify ''white fear''
This new leaked report proves that data was falsified.
🧵
Here are Cook’s own words:
“Recent research also shows that proximity to racial minorities caused higher voter turnout and more conservative voting by whites in US cities (Enos 2016).”
“Sustained interracial interaction could ‘breed fear’ of black political gains if such interactions revealed that African American political power would come at the expense of white political power. (Enos 2016)”
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: I obtained Lisa Cook’s 85-page Tenure Packet via FOIA. Download link below.
It’s heavily redacted, but here are the big takeaways:
1) Michigan State’s econ dept likely voted against tenure — but were overruled by the Dean. This means she was not even good enough for tenure at MSU based on merit, yet somehow Fed Board material?
2) She got tenure despite her research record, not because of it. The tenure packet emphasizes her teaching ability and downplays her research.
3) She would not have gotten tenure without her now-debunked paper.
4) Her tenure packet lists her AER P&P as an AER, with an asterisk indicating it is peer-reviewed. She is lying about this paper being peer reviewed.
5) Every letter writer recognized her as an econ historian, not a macroeconomist or an international economist, which she self-proclaimed to be in Senate testimony.
Ackman won’t be fighting this war. Your sons will.
He cloaks his warmongering in faux humanitarianism, pretending to back the Iranian people’s fight to “take their country back.” But we’ve seen this script before—almost word for word. George W. Bush said the same about Afghanistan: “We are helping the Afghan people take back their country.” In 2003, it was Iraq. That war killed 200,000 civilians. Days before the invasion, Dick Cheney assured Americans, “We will, in fact, be greeted as liberators.”
Cheney's press secretary, Ari Fleischer, parroted the same line: “The [Iraqi] people want to be free… people will rejoice.”
During Covid, I wrote about what I saw as the greatest threat to freedom: authoritarian laws disguised as public safety.
Today, a far more coordinated and dangerous threat has emerged: Zionism.
The Israel Lobby has launched an assault against the First Amendment.

America was born from a boycott.
When the Sons of Liberty dumped British tea into Boston Harbor, they weren’t just protesting a tax — they were asserting the freedom to dissent. That’s your birthright as an American citizen: the freedom to speak, to believe, to dissent, and to decide for yourself what you will and won’t support with your own money.
Texas — which I always imagined was the freest state — is one of the most egregious examples. In May 2017, Governor Greg Abbott signed a law prohibiting state agencies from contracting with, or investing in, companies that boycott Israel.
In Texas you can boycott California, Canada, Cambodia or Palestine; but if you boycott Israel for any reason whatsoever, or no reason at all, it’s a hate crime.
