This is horrific. Early 90s. This is why we need to decolonize our history. My grade 5 child was given an assignment to write about the pros and cons of first contact! The pros and cons...when in our recent history we have indigenous children ripped from their families.
@21stCheryl @AdvocacyPeel@Gailhbc@ETFOPeel Insert when did commenting become inserting, as if you never comment? I am not the enemy pls remember that and if you go for @OSSTFD19 remember @ETFOPeel is not any better and those are the scales in your eyes. Respond to the #Action requested. Can you? I didn't think so...
@21stCheryl @AdvocacyPeel@Gailhbc@ETFOPeel I wish you well too Cheryl in all you do. I will give ur love to advocacypeel, as they were blocked from responding to you as well. Stay safe and be well.
@21stCheryl @AdvocacyPeel@Gailhbc@ETFOPeel We were informed you Blocked advocacypeel as a response was tried by our team and we were informed it couldn't go thru. You constantly personalize the issues, and AP responded to your question can the union do that. You have been unblocked.
White fragility in the Union movement destroys any genuine solidarity. The wound of anti-Black racism is deep and it requires major surgery to fix it, not band aids or sedatives to cover the pain.
Give Nigeria back its rightful history. Looting of our Ancestors and artefacts is what racism and colonialism look like. OK.

Approaching a mentally ill individual with high tech guns always escalates the situation. There was nothing reasonable about the killing. Not a good report @PointerBrampton A mental illness is not a reason for summary execution. 2/
Joel, you are wrong. Period. There was nothing reasonable about killing a 62, yr old man barely able to move when the police didn't assess the risk of being on a balcony if their accounts are to believed. We also know of a tool called the taser gun. 1/

I encourage you to examine how many people of colour — many of whom live in or know people who live in Ontario's harder-hit and under-vaccinated neighbourhoods — are reacting to this and the plan to empower police.
“Is this the disaster you were predicting two months ago?” @CBCLorenda asked a panel of experts Friday after they presented the latest modelling from Ontario's COVID-19 science advisory table. “Could the government have prevented it if it had followed the modelling?”
More than 4 years after a 6-year-old Black Peel school girl was shackled by her hands and feet for 28 minutes by Peel cops, the rights tribunal has awarded her family $35,000. (I find that amount insulting).
