Thank you Dr. Joseph Facal for your article published on Saturday January 8, 2022, in the Journal de Montr\u00e9al<\/em> (https:\/\/www.journaldemontreal.com\/2022\/01\/08\/universites-cest-pire-que-pire<\/a>). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please take the time to read until the end… Bambi could not help not to insert her own comment concerning Dr. Frances Widdowson’s shockingly revolting firing! Below you can read a quick translation of the above article, thanks to Bambi’s faithful friend, Mr. Google Translate<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ideological fanaticism does not rest at the University of Ottawa.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is\nbuilding a better world and believes itself to be morally superior.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We want to\nfill a professorship in sociology and at the School of Feminist and Gender\nStudies.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discrimination<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s read carefully\nthe skills needed:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA doctorate\nin anthropology, indigenous studies, feminist and gender studies, or a related\nfield. Exceptional applicants who do not have a PhD will be considered if they\nhold recognized indigenous knowledge, have ties to indigenous communities, use\nindigenous research and teaching methods, or have outstanding academic work\nrecognized by other Indigenous researchers. “<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In short, if\nyou are indigenous, you don’t have to have a doctorate if your “indigenous\nknowledge” is recognized … by other indigenous people.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also want\nto open a position in “Decolonial Feminism, Anti-Racism and International\nDevelopment”.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It states:\n“In order to build productive relationships with the communities most\naffected by coloniality and racism, this display is aimed at people who\nidentify as black, indigenous and racialized.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have\nwhite skin, no need to apply.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To be kicked\nout because you have black skin is racist. To be excluded because you have\nwhite skin is “progressive.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As one\ncynical professor once said, when you “want to build productive\nrelationships”, you need what you need.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine a\nlegal challenge in the name of discrimination. Hmm …<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I said above that the University of Ottawa continues to forge ahead.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The administration and the teachers’ union, infiltrated by Wokeism, will now impose mandatory training in equity and diversity on faculty members.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If they do not take it, they lose their right to vote when recruiting future professors. Long live democracy!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is\nstill better.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fired!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Mount\nRoyal University in Calgary, Professor Frances Widdowson was completely fired<\/em> [Can you\nimagine? A highly competent and productive professor!! Our collectively insane\ntimes have gone too far\u2026 Is there still hope for our universities at large to\nremain what they are supposed to be: places of free thinking, academic freedom,\nand enriching debates?].<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Widdowson\nis a distinguished political scientist specializing in Indigenous politics in\nCanada.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her\n“crime” was not to share the woke and victimizing ideology on the\nsubject.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

She\ndenounces these activists, consultants and lawyers who have turned the\nindigenous cause into a lucrative “business” by thinking of them,\nfirst of all.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

She believes\nthat the segregation and ghettoization of indigenous people in the name of\n\u201crestorative justice\u201d is harmful.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

She\ndenounces that, in the name of the legitimate rehabilitation of indigenous\ncultures, one wants to establish an equivalence between ancestral beliefs and\nexperimental science.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do Native\nElders predict the weather? She points out that this is arguably possible for\nanyone who spends a lot of time outdoors, regardless of their background.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

She recalls a fact: at Kamloops Residential School, it was not a mass grave <\/em>[“une fosse commune” ou “un charnier” in French] but a cemetery of anonymous graves, common to all the poor in the past.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

She has been\nviolently attacked for years by activists, colleagues, and her administration.\nThey got her. Fired!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also under attack are the publishers that published her work.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I could tell\nyou about other supposedly “isolated” cases. You have no idea …\u201d<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
