The Liberal government has made the 2SLGBTQI+ the focal point of its Woke tyranny. The acronym stands for “Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and additional people who identify as part of sexual and gender diverse communities. The “2S” at the front recognizes Two-Spirit people as the first 2SLGBTQI+ communities. The “I” for intersex considers sex characteristics beyond sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression. The “+” is inclusive of people who identify as part of sexual and gender diverse communities, who use additional terminologies.” (Women and Gender Equality Canada) The premise on which 2SLGBTQI+ rests is the narrative that Canada was founded by European conquerors who imposed heternormativity and patriarchy on the Native population and the marginalized and oppressed non-Indigenous communities—particularly the BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Colour). Naturally, this is patent nonsense. That is not to say that racism never existed in Canadian history and that gay and lesbian people were persecuted. There were historical wrongs that Canadians acknowledge, and changes to Canadian law have been instituted to guarantee equality under the law and opportunity, and, where appropriate, reparations have been made to affected individuals. For example, survivors of the Japanese internment during World War Two were awarded $21,000 each in 1988. Also, twelve million dollars was given to the Japanese Community Fund, along with 24 million dollars towards the creation of a Canadian Race Relations Foundation to ensure that similar injustices would never happen again. (National Association of Japanese Canadians) But for the current Liberal government, that is not enough. In short, the Liberal government uses the acronym to project Trans Queer fantasy and nonsense onto Canadian history. They are revising our history, if not trying to erase it, and making it an offence to challenge or criticize the narrative with the passage of Bill C-9, the Combating Hate Act.

What is it about my being a white man that makes some people think any argument I make in any discussion I join on any topic is invalid? Honestly, what do my sex and skin colour have to do with my ability to think, form, and express a thought? I am an educated man. I was fortunate to have been born in Canada in the mid-twentieth century. I had the benefit of a public education and earned two university degrees. My schooling included lessons in history, music, drama, and logic. I learned how important objectivity is in the pursuit of knowledge and truth. I also learned that you should judge others as individuals according to their character. So, then why, in 2026, do my sex and race matter to so many people? So much so that I am attacked for being an old white man with no regard to my character. The thing to remember is that despite being white and male, I had to compete for spots in university and employment. Nothing was guaranteed. I suffered hardship and disappointment along the way. Like many Canadians my age, I had to move back in with my parents for a while after graduating from university with a B.A., only to find there was no room for me in the workforce. I remember well when I was in grade 8, my teacher lectured the class on the importance of getting an education. It was that, or you could expect to draw a welfare cheque. I remember the ads in the 1990s that pitched the message, “More education equals more job choices.” I did as my elders told me, only to end up educated, unemployed, and having to move in with my parents. I did not give up. I struggled to find work and initially found jobs through temporary employment agencies. It was at one of these temporary jobs that my supervisor suggested I enroll in library school. I applied and was offered admission to the School of Library and Information Science at the University of Western Ontario (now called Western University) in 1990. I graduated in 1993 with a Master of Library and Information Science degree.
