I am being run out of my public school job in Abbotsford, B.C. for woke wrong-speak, most dramatically for suggesting (regarding a news story which was internationally reported) that 215 residential school students long ago in Kamloops died from disease and not at the hands of their teachers. A teacher or trustee (Linda Stone) or student (Josh Alexander) is toast if he or she (not “they”) questions the new authoritarians in schools who operate under the guise of DIE (diversity inclusion equity) but smite much that is good, such as not discriminating on the basis of race or gender. They divide, they censor, they lie, they punish. James Pew is dead right about them.
Arbitrators and judges are hired today on the basis of their birth characteristics and commitment to wokeism. I’m not sure I’ll be fairly judged. That’s why I went to media and will again.
Good, I think this is something that needs to be fought. They aren't backing down and neither should you (ethically, of course). The more who are willing to do what you do, the more likely it is woke will eventually be toppled.
I am overwhelmed with dealings with my own woke board. In NP today it says 27% of first-year students at U of T white. Diversity means silence and ultimate elimination of people like me. It means ideological conformity or face exclusion.
Whatever it is, clearly wokeism is a mass phenomenon, but one which operates more effectively (or epidemically) in organizations. So, what does psychology say about phenomonena that operate stronger this way?
Things should be measured by what is being done. Boards who are suppressing elected persons right and obligation to exercise free speech (DEBATE) at Committee and Board meetings is WRONG. The Charter says EVERYONE has the right to opinion AND EXPRESSION. Trustees have the right and obligation to attend and PARTICIPATE in Committees and Board Meetings. The Ed Act also describes what should happen when Trustees have complaints against other Trustees. What I am saying is the answer lies within the Law(s). Poorly written Codes of Conduct and use of Integrity Commissioners is the problem. It is OK to have policies on Inclusion, Diversity, Equity. But it is not beneficial to exclude diversity of opinion. The Government should immediately clarify that barring Trustees from meetings is a step too far. Paul Crawford
This should be reviewed by the Minister of Education, unfortunately he took forever to speak up about the Z-Cup Bandit at Halton and still did nothing really, so unfortunately for Libertarianism views they seem all but gone at school board level and Ministry of Education level Provincially, time to vote out as much as it hurts to say, but Doug Ford looks like he has to go, he made the promise to fix our Education, unfortunately it seems to be rapidly breaking more than when he took office.
What nasty evil humans. I had a similar experience of being pushed out of a job for objecting to a woke takeover that pushed things on us that had nothing to do with work. Is there nothing the parents can do, after all, they voted her in?

I'm sorry for what you're going through, but you are doing the right thing to stand for truth. Time will prove you to be correct.
