CANADIAN SYSTEMIC RACISM

We Are People Just Like You

Imagine for a nanosecond that there was even a hint of a shop owner posting a sign saying ‘NO BLACKS ALLOWED’ or ‘NO GAYS ALLOWED’ or ‘NO TRANSGENDERS ALLOWED’ or ‘NO NATIVES ALLOWED’. The shitnado following such an action would be apocalyptic.

The news cycle would be filled with talking heads opining about those racist Canadians. Our apoligizer-in-chief would be on the Canadian networks with tears streaming down his cheeks and lamenting that ‘Canadians need to do better, you’re such nasty cretins.’ It would be a given that there would be worldwide protests and the offending shop, irregardless of whether the sign existed or not, would be burnt to the ground along with a sizeable portion of the surrounding community.

It would go without saying that the perpetrator of the obvious Hate Crime, which multiple police units would be investigating, would be vilified, doxxed, and virtually lynched by a gargantuan horde of Social Justice Warriors, real and keyboard. The creator of such an abomination, plus their family, would be hounded until the mob’s ire turned to fresh meat.

But, but, but, the poor devil would protest, the health board and the news outlets reported there were large groups of Black people attending a Black Lives Matter protest or LGBTQ people participating in a Pride Parade or Natives blockading rail lines. Government sources said that because of the gatherings, there was a resultant spike in Covid-19 cases in my area. I’m just trying to protect my family, staff, and patrons.

Guess where the next ‘peaceful’ protest would occur.

But of course, no one would be idiotic enough to throw more fuel on the BLM, Antifa, LGBTQ, Native protester’s fires even if there was a clear and identifiable link between their activities and a spike in Covid-19 cases.

Then why did our powers to be in government and the MSM deem it necessary to announce that some spikes were occurring on Hutterite colonies in the Prairie provinces?

Manitoba Media Bulletin: COVID-19 Bulletins #133, 135, 136 & 137 specifically state Hutterite colonies were linked to new outbreaks. #133 reads: ‘Today’s cases are a male and female in their 60s, a male and female in their 30s and a female in her 20s. All the cases are on a Hutterite colony in the Interlake-Eastern health region. The investigation is ongoing and any additional information will be provided as needed once investigations are complete to inform people of any public health risks.’

Bulletins #135 & 136 read: ‘The high case counts are reflective of an outbreak of cases in several Hutterite colonies.’

Bulletin #137: ‘Seven of today’s eight cases are on Hutterite colonies.’

Finally in Bulletin #138, the government stopped identifying Hutterites but reading between the lines ‘Today’s case is a male in his 40s from the Interlake-Eastern health region.’ was probably a Hutterite.

Do you think if there were outbreaks on Native Reserves that the Manitoba government would start identifying those and the region they were in? Of course not!

Did no one at the government public relations offices or the health departments do a one, two pause before issuing such specific statements? What public health reasons made it necessary to identify Hutterite colonies? Even without the virus, members of the regular public do not visit a colony without good reason. Finally, after the colony elders complained the PR people came to their senses but there was not even a hint of an apology in subsequent Media Bulletins.

Of course the media latched on to the story, doxxing and putting targets on all the Prairie Hutterites. Eventually, a letter had to be sent to the news networks telling them to desist or face court action.

Did not a single network have an inkling of the damage, scorn, or possible violence they would incite by specifically identifying Hutterite colonies for these minor outbreaks? Of course they did but again there was a rush to publish and after an anemic mea culpa, they stopped running the stories.

In part, a Hutterite letter to the networks, had to state the obvious that ‘We are people just like you.’

If you are unaware of Hutterite persecution, that’s literally their entire history and in large part why they established colonies in North America. To this day, that persecution has not ended and is obviously rampant to this day with government and MSM involvement. Mary-Ann Kirkby, author of I am Hutterite, gives an excellent rendition of what it is like being a Hutterite.

Institutional racism is built into Canadian fabric but it isn’t Blacks, Gays, or Natives who are the targets anymore. If you are white and religious, it is your turn to have the target on your back now.
