RE: Why Critical Race Theory is vital. Op-ed by Cole Gately. The Hamilton Spectator 10 Sept 22
The piece at reference is a disgusting piece of tripe, and the Spectator ought to be ashamed to have published it.
The prevalence of crime in Canada does not make Canada “systemically criminal,” and hence neither does the prevalence of racist acts in Canada make Canada “systemically racist.”
What makes Canada systemically racist is the Indian Act and Article 25 of the Charter. These provisions create in law a privileged class of people based on racial heritage. So, if you want to rid Canada of the last vestige of systemic racism, repeal the Indian Act and denounce the UN Declaration of Indigenous Rights. We’re all indigenous - to the plant earth.
The central tenant of Critical Race Theory is that white people are racist because they are white. And that only white people are culpably racist. The falsity and self-contradiction of the central holdings of CRT are manifest, and the only reason CRT is taken seriously at all is because of the agenda it supports. The authors of CRT ought to be disgraced and run out of the academy for manifest incompetence.
White Replacement Theory has more
plausibility than CRT, and, funny thing, CRT supports WRT. We mustn’t teach our children that they are
inherently and incurably evil because they were born white.

Canada does not need CRT and those who believe it does should not be teaching our children or elected to school boards.
