• 0:03
  Speaker 1: From Canada proud. Do you think it's time to defund
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: woke nonsense? Yes, research grants at Canadian universities. The most
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: important part of the application for a research grant in
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: Canada is your diversity statement. Nothing to do with I
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: don't know, you might be studying lasers or something, nothing
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: to do with that. Just how are you going to
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: make this diverse? If they don't believe that you're prioritizing
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: their ideology over the actual research, in other words, the
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: real world. If they don't believe that you're at prioritizing
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: the abstraction that they worship over the real world, you
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: don't get You don't get the research grant. Right, So
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: progress be damned. Who cares. That's not the that's not
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: the technological progress, doesn't matter. All that matters is the
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: progress progress, the ideological progress. In fact, hold on a second,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: let's take a look. Fact minority professor denied grants because
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: he hires on merit. People are afraid to think, he says.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: He says, I don't care about the color of your skin.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: I'm interested in hiring someone who wants to work on
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: the project and is good at it, and I'm not
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: going to attempt to say his name out of respect.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: So this is the other thing, right, It shows you
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: the whole kind of lie behind the diversity thing. The
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: diversity only counts if you agree with them. So for like,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: you know, some you know, white radical leftist administrator at
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: a university, your diversity only matters if you agree with them.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: So somebody's diversity only counts if you agree with them.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: If you don't agree with them, you don't count. They
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: don't want your diverse voice anymore, because it turns out
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: they don't actually want diverse voices. They want the same voice.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: They want total homogeneity of ideology. A thought. Let's see
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: an award winning Canadian scientist that he has been refused
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: to federal government grants for his research on the grounds
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: of lack of diversity, even though he is originally from
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: India and has repeatedly suffered racism. See, his diversity doesn't
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: count though, because he doesn't buy in to the woke
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: ideology he wants merit and that well, they took his
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: minority card away, So let me give it a try.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Pat and Jarli Kembum Patti, a professor in the chemistry
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: department at Montreal's McGill University believes the death now for
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: the latest grant was a line in the application form
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: where he was asked about hiring staff based on diversity
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: and inclusion considerations. He says his mistake was maintaining he
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: would hire on merit any research assistant who was qualified,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: regardless of their identity. So this is what rules now
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: in Canadian academia and the government that provides the research grants.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: This is what's most important to them. Merit doesn't matter,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: just a merit even of the application doesn't matter. Of
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: whatever the research is doesn't matter. It's just is the
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: researcher going to do their little diversity song and dance
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: for them? If they will, they'll pat them on the
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: head and give them some money. I think so many
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Canadians don't understand how deeply the woke tendrils have gotten
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: into everything, and just how deep the madness has gotten.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Yes, well, we're the money we spend on research will
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: go to research, not to promoting political ideologies. We want,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: for example, our science and technology research to go into
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: technological breakthroughs, inventions, innovations, discoveries, cures for terrible diseases that
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: can improve Canadian lives. That is what Canadians expect their
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: tax dollars to go to, not to spend it on
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: radical political ideologies that are first of all completely out
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: of touch with the values of Canadians and second of
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: all have no scientific value to our people. Thank you,
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Thank you everyone.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: So in other words, sanity just sanity. Yes, Canada will
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: be sane in this respect what I'm Prime Minister, so
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I'm good with that. I'm good with the whole sane thing. Anyway.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: That's all I'm going to say about that. Please like, share,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: and subscribe. Subscribing really helps me out. I thank you
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: for that. I will see you next time.
