Commentary
In a letter published recently in The Epoch Times, I wrote with dismay about the imposition of critical race theory (CRT) in our Canadian military. Of course, this bigoted ideology of identity politics is not limited to just this element of our culture. CRT has entered the schools of Canada as well—such as Ontario (Bill 67)—and this bodes poorly for our next generation. Students must focus on the basics of education, not political indoctrination. The remedy to this is to have Canadians remember a basic sense of citizenship as sovereign individuals.
