The important point to keep in mind regarding section 33 of the Charter of Rights & Freedoms is why it was included. Think about what was going on at the time and why the Charter was even created.
Sect. 33 is a white supremacy tool that was included to make white men feel safe.

Now that this fact has been said, let’s get to the heart of addressing the attempt to abuse power in order to maintain white supremacy.
It’s 2018, time to rule section 33 unconstitutional when used to subvert Canadians’ inalienable rights to a free & democratic society.

History has taught us many lessons.
Some people learn from them and some people don’t.
During the time when then Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau and other white male elected Representatives were working on ensuring that underrepresented and marginalized Communities were protected

Life ‘seemed’ easier when I was with my white people.
Inequitable treatment continued.🙈🙉🙊
Homelessness continued.🙈🙉🙊
Black people were being brutalized & killed by the State.
Injustice continued.🙈🙉🙊
Mediocrity maintained the status quo.🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♀️
Wilful oblivion

White privilege allows wilful oblivion.
I never understood this wilful oblivion when I was with my white people.
My white people were my family, including literal actual family.

What the Jane & Finch Community audience publicly & actively did was the example of what we should be doing.
Jane & Finch’s example was the example of outrage for the nonsense going on during that election.
I expected to see this response at other ‘debates’.
