Boycott: Prejudice OCS Spark 2021 Conference teaches it's bad CAUCASIANS majority CEOs of LPs.

The OCS clearly distinguishes skin colour. Why would a government look at skin colour and indoctrinate that colour matters? Should the Toronto Raptors hire based on skin colour? And then the Olympics? Please write letters to the OCS and your MP demanding that they appologise for this behaviour and fire those individuals who promote hate immediately. This problem will not fix itself. LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR.

I agree, nowadays people with black skin are still poorly treated, which is wrong. At the same time, I worked for about seven years as a developer in an IT company. Being a white person, I didn't like that the management could not hire a black guy. However, I had enough knowledge to work as a Junior developer. Therefore, I realized that I did not want to tolerate it, and have saved up money, I still left this company. I want to open my own business, and I want people of all skin types to work for my company. I am still undergoing business management training on prendo.com, and we have mostly practiced here. That is, we are given knowledge with the help of real situations.

In my canuck province - which is protected by TWO charters of rights (...) - "elites" still could manage to perpetuate the victorian-age oppression of cannabis consumers, UNANIMOUSLY in THE PEOPLE'S HOUSE as i vaguely recall. Even if i could win some Supreme Court(s) "cause" Québec's parliamentaries ain't ready to do anything nice about cannabis, or at least never in front of a reporter's camera... The politician's instinct is to warn against the "dangers", forgetting if there's ~2 % users problematic enough to warrant Public Health assistance then the "legal" age was actually raised despite a huge evidence that ~98 % of us don't want nor somehow "need" 3rd-party mis-guided predatory interference at all - and much less hints of racism on top of a vertical structure that can only infuriate the sane minds sufficiently responsible & mature to recognize the law of Lucie "Nez Rouge" Charlebois was insulting already while that of François Legault added a stinky touch to this bigot contraption, devoid of a proper sense of proportionality when it comes to CANNABIS.

Imagine if we lived in France where CBD flowers are now treated much the same as regular cannabis... In my province the politic class chose to SACRIFICE a class of citizens and yes, systemic racism took over our public institutions to the point our only exit is to replace LPs with public-funded "cooperatives", owned & operated by users to serve users. Hence the sooner Hexo/Hydropothecary disapears the better, provided its replacement ain't more monopoly LPs that pump green money beyond all borders.

Feel lucky that the OCS or your MP might pay attention. Anyway the B.-C. activist Dana Larsen already wrote a public letter asking for official excuses, long ago:

Canadian pot smokers deserve an apology (2015-Nov-4)
« Let's remember that cannabis prohibition was born out of racism and ignorance. »

Just that. But our political institutions consistently fail whole populations (even beyond yet-to-be-born generations...) and require significant reform as well! Too bad the sacrificed people living today were sacrificed for a lack of spinal cord in front of mass-mediatic news-makers: exploitation of "sin" and "sinners" is a profitable/prosperous INDUSTRY now!

...

So, on top of "visible" social groups it turns out Québec's political class has prefered to ignore the potential for all sorts of prejudice years before this whole circus started. Tainted by rampant racism much the same as in 1922 when Maclean's Janey Canuck refered to the "science" of British doctor John Warnock, director of some "lunatic assylum" for hashish smokers in El Abbassyïa, Cairo/Egypt. ... Thinking that was over a century ago? Try Québec's Pharpacy Act printed in 1890 and where "Indian Hemp"/"Cannabis sativa L." got classified besides arsenic and cyanure on "Cédule A - Liste des Poisons". The law was approved by the British Empire while Canada was a "dominion", hence this confirms the 1867 confederation principles about the province's "compétences" relatively to cannabis... In other words, the federal ban performed by Liberal senator Sévérin Béland in 1923 was no less than the UNILATERAL transfer of a procincial compétence to Ottawa and any true Québeker "nationalist" should have jumped on such historical detail long long ago.

In the end our representatives ain't alone to fail the nation, their mass-media friends aided by "expert$"/"spe¢iali$ts" have responsability too, followed by police lobby which managed to have its budgets increased when in fact "Légaleesation" was supposed to put an end to the chasing season. I deeply regret the official hate speech paroxism won't be over just yet, IMO the blood of more victims will flow before "elite" moral behaviour finally improves.

Mais nous, nous seront morts, mon frère!

Good day, have fun!! :peace:

Go figure why a large percentage of illegal cannabis growers are asians yet not too many asians owning LPs.

they made the acces to license too difficult and only worth it for people with governement connections….

...made the acces to license too difficult...
First politicians & friends found out they could easily mesmerize vulnerable populations with "news" of some new alien "dangers", starting right into the "temperance movement" at the end of the 19th century i shall say, so to me it's initially a war of the sexes backed up mainly by 2 religions (catholics and protestants). We all know that alcohol prohibition failed, back then the confederation used to protect individual rights including trans-provincial commerce of alcohol - but not anymore and yet no constitutional changes were necessary somehow - thanks to canuck courts which happen to be belong in a regime of law.

The worse fracture to occur, IMO, was when Harper counter-attacked on the medical front: a mistake because it opened the door to "expert$" and "spe¢ali$ts". It turns out there weren't much of any "medical cannabis" culture in my province when the 2016 Task Force launched their bogus "consultation", ignoring such fundamental difference and hence rejecting a majority of consumers who prefered to deal directly in-situ with other persons sharing a same love for the plant.

The August 24 (2016) report clearly reflected the Québeker's relative indifference about "compassion clubs" rendered possible at least in part because of rights protected in 1867. It also masks an evidence: few of our "stoner$"/"droÿé$" felt confident the politicians could be trusted enough to release true civil identities... But the medical patients of Harper were suffering already, so it was a child's play to take them hostage a little bit further, after collecting legal signatures in support.

:roll:

The days when religious endoctrination in society allowed mis-guided 3rd-parties to intervein are well over, just too bad it converted into another virtuous holier-than-you-and-me form, still draped with morals instrumentalizing children down to embryos. The war never ends!

Have you heard of Québec's systemic racism in hospitals vs aboriginals?

Guess what, "preventive" sexual sterilisation and baby kidnaping for visible minorities is even a legal legacy in Canada.

This is a vast country where ordinary consumers can live their entire life without ever meeting a single asian, similarily to Montrealers who never spoke French: it's called diversity. There's the city people then the "rural" others (half of a province), so as far as i knew (until ~2010...) we had only 1 compassion club before it got closed by police and it was located on the Montreal island. Today we have many LPs and yet the net result of "Légaleezation" is a perpetuation of the same severe social distortions (as lack of access). Etc., etc.

All because obedient wifes with a half-a-dozen children got tired of raising them with the little resources left after their husbands went to a tavern, in days when alcohol felt safer than water.

Etc.

One hurting part of Trudeau's legacy is this simple fact: those with grower privileges gained under Harper now fail to see how fragmented the cannabis enthousiasts have become. Forced to disapear from the visible reality by law, threatened by retro-active eviction rights granted to landlords and more, though i can't say for sure what other provinces pushed the cork this far.

Division to reign never been so factual nonetheless, only the priests been replaced by "doctors" as bigot christian prohibitionist Kevin Sabet who was invited as int'l guest to Montréal's 1st symposium on ADDICTION, at hotel Marriott in a cannabic context...

Would those zealots have ceased control without Harper's contribution? What if the medical patients had managed to defend themselves without having to provide a legal signature in support of medical interference to begin with?? What if the "Free-the-Beer" caused had been won as it should have?...

:shock:

Prohibition 2.0 has been built patiently brick by brick since the Victorian age, through successive laws that half the population couldn't even read anyway. It transcends the passage of generation and survives thanks to a lack of accountability.

Ah, and talking of this later aspect, i burn with envy to describe to you how i envision Trudeau's Halloween science show of October 2016 exactly, e.g. with doctor Jean-Pierre Chiasson testifying in tears before 80-some "scientifics" gathered around abstentionist addiction... Similar to the wives of drunks complaining to their local spirituality coaches known today to have perpetuated a system of pedophile agressions against orphans and kidnapped kids of the aboriginal people, A Mari Usque Ad Mare (coast to coast)!

:neutral:

Today the sin industry fuels police budgets while therapists align their pockets, some even inspired by scientology. Trudeau just passed an anti-conversion (sex-therapy) law to protect individuals against groups but he didn't seem to realize how coerced "treament" compares, in the most distressing cases leading to suicide after adults obviously immature in cannabis matters have caused durable/permanent trauma by repeated prejudice early in life.

I bet the temperance movement didn't think how a far-stretched their legitimate complaints would go, not taking into account the political variable: such predator$ only manage to VILLIFY everything they touch and it shows up quite blatantly under the microscope as i never ever faced such a bad "dealer" before the SQdC (not to mention if i had i wouldn't have called twice anyway)!

In Joliet's hospital that was Joyce Echaquan, a 37-yr Atikamek, who died of discriminatory treatment; not an asian but close enough i suppose. YMMV if you're not so lucky to have been born in Toronto, Calgary or Vancouver!

In any case it's a big smelly pile of crap started by remote domestic issues still not resolved today and i foresee no solution anytime soon, nor during my lifetime, or yours. Now lets add the notion of proportionality by making juxtapositions with sensitive topics and taboos, like firearms for which no "medical" equivalent exists, or why not masturbation as i find the parallel proves most striking...

Racism being one predictible conclusion, but not only.

Good day, have fun!! :peace:

It's funny how we were told to disregard skin colour in trade off for merit for job applications for decades, and now we have these bizarre rules in place to obsess with skin colour. Some are clueless.

I had some dickhead the other day be like "it's not even treatment until theres 50% of black workers in every company"....how is that supposed to happen when only 15% of the population are black? What about other races? Do they just go without a job?

We have to go by representation...say if your country is 70% white, it's impossible to have an even spread of race in a workplace...that would just lead to a vast majority of companies literally being white only.

I tried to mention that black people only make up a few percentage of the workforce, how can it be an even split?. And got called racist and Intolerant. Claimed I would refuse to work anywhere with an even split of races. Hello, I caught chickens for 7 years where I was literally the only white boy out of 110 staff. Literally.

We have an Indian owned steel fab company down the road. No white people...am I supposed to force then to hire white people? There's African restaurants down the road with 20 or so African staff, am I supposed to rally with white power and demand they hire equal amounts of white people? Same for the Chinese restaurant next door..am I supposed to rally there as well and demand equal white workers in their own workplac? No, they can hire whoever they see fit as the best worker.

That's where there mentality falls apart quickly.. they want equality when it suits them only.
