Ontario teachers' union implements controversial weighted voting system to increase minority representation

The system applies to one local bargaining unit, located in the Halton region, of the larger Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation . The local unit represents roughly 1,400 teachers and staff, according to the website. A motion was proposed at the union’s June annual general meeting and it passed with the support of 68 per cent of delegates.Article content

Caitlin Clark, spokesperson for Ontario Education Minister Stephen Lecce, said in an emailed statement that, “teacher unions have once again missed the mark.” Gage ignored a request for a telephone interview, and did not respond to the Post’s follow-up questions Tuesday about specific aspects of the policy that are under public debate on social media.Article content

Faisal Bhabha, a law professor at Osgoode Hall Law School, says something like this seems, on its face, to be discriminatory, but that the Ontario Human Rights Code allows for programs that “remediate inequality.”

I am ok with this. Since Gingers are the smallest minority that means our vote should have the most weight, right? Every Ginger vote should count as ten non-Ginger votes.

tim2Honley WTF? One person, one vote is the very core of democracy. So now the Ontario Teachers union thinks that the next green one toed, multi-sexual 14 spirit not a person (because labels are unfair) gets a 1000 vote weight

New math

And this group educates our children.

See. I've said it all Alone, they don't want equality, they want dominance

TuckerCarlson

This is getting really scary. Seriously this skin colour bullshit has to stop. This isn't equality!!! Wake the fuck up!!

So, if there's only one person of colour on the panel, that person gets 50% of the votes. Mind numbing.

Institutions like government, the media and the education system are controlled by the left. And have been for some time. So tell me again who's the culprit for systemic racism!

Hahahaha as long as there is a lobster dinner at the end eh!

Wow...

Lazy

The death of democracy and solidarity in organized labour.

Will this be reflected in union dues?

One person one vote may be fair yet may not be equitable, hense a weighted vote. Takes a law degree to spin that twist of logic. There goes individual rights under the Canadian constitution.

What next?

According with the woke way of thinking, I can identify as a 'privileged voting minority' just before voting, and then go back to my real race just after voting. They themselves say you 'are' what you 'say' you are, so if I say I'm Black or Asian or a Woman or a Man, i 'am' that.

What a mockery of democracy.

So they fight for equality by killing equality; interesting. But that is how the left see things, you have to become racist to fight racism, you have be fascist to fight fascism. Not for me.

Wait until it starts costing the people within their union jobs etc and see how they react then.

Wait. Does this make me racist if I disagree with this?

This is disgusting and racist AF

Lol teachers union enough said

Creating new inequalities to try to fix the problems created by old inequalities is just stupid.

Clown world.

Very slippery slope

One local, not the entire union.

This country is going to shit.
