Trudeau Liberals promise new flag for Canada

This coming October, Canadians will go to the polls to elect a new federal government. Or, the Liberal Party hopes, to re-elect Just In Trudeau and his government of useful idiots, in spite of everything.

But with opinion polls trending downwards for the libbies, they will have to raise their game -- promotion of "inclusivity", gender ideology, and Islamization of Canada -- to new levels. Some kind of gimmick is needed, beyond opening the border to 1000s of "refugees" and asylum-seekers, aka instant Liberal voters. Walt's mole in the PMO (Prime Minister's Office) says they've come up with something truly brilliant.

This coming June will see the 55th anniversary of the adoption of the now hugely popular maple leaf flag that replaced the British Red Ensign if the bad old colonial days. 55. If you say 5-5 in Thai, it's "ha-ha". So Mr Socks' minions are planning a nice "ha-ha" for the Canadian people. It's a brand new flag, which will properly symbolize the diversity which is the theme and hallmark of Mr T's new "post-national state". As well, it will show that Canadians welcome all the new Muslim immigrants, no matter what the lying opinion polls say. Here's the new design.


There now. Isn't that just what the imam ordered. You've got everybody represented: gays, trannies, feminists, Muslims, and even real Canadians. See the little maple leaf? Perfect! The bill to replace the old maple leaf flag with the brilliant new rainbow banner is expected to be tabled in Parliament any day now. What could go wrong?

Note from Ed.: I didn't have time to talk to a second source for this report, but it sounds plausible to me, given the track record of Canada's Liberal Party, so I'm going with it!

Political correctness kills black student on field trip

The Toronto District School Board is the largest in Canada, as well as the looniest. They're just crazy for inclusion, diversity and political correctness. Check out the examples in "Canada's loony left, pro-Muslim 'public' school board", WWW 16/1/18 and "Chinese-Canadians protest hijab hoax", 29/1/18. On Friday we had another head-scratcher from the TDSB, in the form of a memorial ceremony for Jeremiah Perry, a former student at C.W. Jefferys Collegiate Institute (read: high school), one of the hundreds run [into the ground? Ed.] by the TDSB.

C.W. Jefferys is located in a predominantly black area [Thank you for not using the G-word. Ed.] in northwest Toronto. The majority of the school-goers are "students of colour". The school isnot noted for academic achievement, nor even for having good football or basketball teams. It is one of many TDSB schools which have "challenges" and "opportunities", including the "opportunity" to prove to a skeptical public that diversity is Canada's strength, and inclusivity can work to improve the lot of kids like Jeremiah Perry.

As part of their politically correct programme to make sure everyone gets treated the same, the TDSB promotes field trips and holiday adventures, so that black kids who've never been out of the, errr, city, can enjoy the beauties of Canada's countryside, just like the white kids. In July of 2017, staff at C.W. Jefferys organized a week-long canoe trip through Ontario's famous Algonquin Park, about three hours' drive and hundreds of light years in character north of the Wormy Apple.

Kids who wished to go on the trip didn't need money. This was all paid for by the taxpayer, natch. They didn't even need to have any experience canoeing, because they'd be taught the basics by the teachers and guides who would accompany them at all times. But they did need to know how to swim (just in case the lessons didn't take), and swim tests were duly administered at a local pool.

Here's where the political correctness kicks in, with sad consequences for Jeremiah Perry. Jeremiah, you see, didn't know how to swim, and failed the test. So by rights he should have been left behind. But hey, "No child left behind!" Right? Especially if the child is, errr, non-white and might therefore feel discriminated against. So Jeremiah went along with all the others.

As surely as the sun rises in the east, the unintended consequences of too much political correctness befell Jeremiah on 15 July 2017, when he went swimming with his mates, at dusk, sans life-jacket or other PFD. He soon disappeared under the waters of Big Trout Lake. His body was found the next day by Ontario Provincial Police search and rescue divers.

Jeremiah's death spurred investigations by the OPP and TDSB, who pointed the finger of blame at a teacher who was acting as a supervisor on the trip. A charge of criminal negligence causing death was laid this past July -- a year later -- and the accused teacher is now on "home assignment" meaning he gets paid not to come to work.

The TDSB, for its part, implemented a number of new measures to ensure safety on future field trips, including a requirement that parents be notified if their child passes or fails mandatory swim tests. A prominent accounting firm was hired by the province of Ontario to conduct a review of outdoor education policies at Ontario school boards. Its finding have not been made public.

On Friday, the C.W. Jefferys gym was renamed to honour Jeremiah Perry. Not because he was a great athlete. Not because he was a great all-round student. But (although this wasn't said) because he was the first black student in Ontario to die because of political correctness. That's all ye know and all ye need to know.

Canuck PM's "peoplekind" joke (?) proves "PC humour" an oxymoron

Canada's pussified Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, is being rightly ridiculed in his own and the other AABC countries for a remark he made during one of his recent "town hall meetings". Yes, we have the video. Here 'tis, [with apologies from Ed. if you couldn't see it before. Had to find a different source. Ed.]



You heard right. M Trudeau told the woman asking a question that she should say "peoplekind" instead of "mankind". He was taking questions from the usual gang of SJWs and other lefties at MacEwan University in Edmonton AB, as part of a cross-country tour which looks suspiciously like campaigning on the taxpayers' dime.

The questioner, one of the church ladies from the controversial feminist "World Mission Society of God", apparently wanted to make a point about volunteerism. She said, "We have received the Queen's Award in the UK; we have received many awards. However, unfortunately in Canada, our volunteering as a religious charitable organization is extremely difficult. We came here today to ask you to also look into the policies that religious charitable organizations have in our legislations [sic] so that it can also be changed because maternal love is the love that's going to change the future of mankind."

Then M Trudeau cut her off, saying, "We like to say 'peoplekind', not necessarily 'mankind', cause it's more inclusive." Seriously. That's what he said. Now that his horrible example of over-the-top political correctness has gone viral, he says it was just his attempt at a "dumb joke". If that's the case, the joke backfired on Hairboy, who has been mocked by commentators in the blogosphere and even in the (((controlled media))).

He has been accused of "manspaining feminism". And he has been called names, like "the Canadian Kim Kardashian". That epithet came from the pen (or keyboard) of Rita Panahiis, an American-born Iranian-Australian opinion columnist and critic of Islam. "'We like to say peoplekind, not necessarily mankind'," she wrote. in the Heraldsun. "That's one woke himbo." (A "himbo" is a male bimbo. Geddit?)

Well, Rita... we get the governments we deserve. The American people elected Donald Trump. And their smug neighbours to the north elected... Canada's Kim Kardashian. LMAO.

Footnote: Agent 3 reports that Her Britannic Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II (by her Canadian representative, the Governor-General) today gave Royal Assent to a bill changing the second line of the English version of O Canada (Canuckistan's national anthem) from "True patriot love, in all thy sons command" to "True patriot love, in all of us command". Let all peoplekind rejoice! (Walt likes the French lyrics much better!)

PC madness in Bloomington IN

Here's another one for our "You couldn't make this stuff up" file. The Bloomington (IN) Herald-Times reports that there will be no more Good Friday and Columbus Day holidays in Bloomington, Indiana. Really. The holy day and holiday in question will henceforth be known as "Spring Holiday" and "Fall Holiday".

Why? Because the new super-politically correct names will help make the holidays more inclusive, according to Bloomington Mayor John Hamilton. (Mayor Hamilton is unrelated to Alexander Hamilton, the subject of the eponymous Broadway musical, which also happens to be very PC.) Mayor Hamilton sent a memo to city employees this week in which he explained that the centuries-old names imply cultural insensitivity. The new names will avoid even the remotest possibility of giving offence to anyone except Christians and Italian-Americans.

In his memo, Mayor Hamilton raised to new heights the bar for "celebrating diversity" ["pandering", surely. Ed.]. "We are terrifically proud of our diverse workforce at the city," Hizzoner wrote. "That diversity makes us stronger and more representative of the public we proudly serve. These updated names for two days of well-merited time off is another way we can demonstrate our commitment to inclusivity."

Mr Hamilton's unilateral decision to rename the days will be no surprise to residents of Bloomington. Thanks to the presence in the city of that great seat of liberal learning, Indiana University, Bloomington and surrounding Monroe County are overwhelmingly populated by guilt-ridden white liberals. The county gave Hellery Clinton 58.6% the vote on November 8th, preferring her to President-elect Trump [Walt loves that phrase! Ed.] by nearly 14,000 votes.

Book recommendation: Guilt, by Ann Coulter (Three Rivers Press, 2009). Amongst other things, you can read about all the confused white gliberals who "self-identified" as "oppressed minorities" and all the "hate crimes" that turned out to be hoaxes perpetrated by SJWs.
