    Judge to decide if Ottawa locals can testify in ‘Freedom Convoy’ organizers’ trial
  • Exactly what I was thinking. This just sounds like it would be a victim impact statement which serves very standard.

    I also fail to see how it could possibly be considered irrelevant.

  • It all began with a DEI course for TDSB administrators that started in April 2021. DEI trainer Kike Ojo-Thompson (the CEO of the KOJO Institute) led a series of sessions for TDSB higher-ups in which she made a number of familiar progressive arguments, according to Bilkszto’s court filing: Canada is a more racist place than the U.S., Canada is a “bastion of white supremacy and colonialism,”

    The rest aside, the NP saying that it's a common take that Canada is worse than the us for racism is crazy talk. That's a fringe view.
