The Stop-Woke.ca Petition …

The critical social justice movement that has its underpinnings in the Critical Race Theory that makes up Bill 67, advocates for a form of collectivism that seeks to establish a new system of group-based rights by segregating people into categories of “oppressor” and “oppressed” based on their immutable “intersectional” characteristics (i.e. race, gender, religion, sexual orientation).

“Oppressed” identity groups are to be provided with preferential rights to equalize outcomes among groups.  Adherents to the ideology claim (incorrectly) that all economic disparities among groups must be rooted from discrimination. 

While adherents of Critical Race Theory and critical social justice publicly brand themselves as advocates for tolerance and inclusion, in practice the implemented policies end up excluding, smearing, or “cancelling” those with opposing views.

This form of collectivism undermines and attacks the fundamental tenants of liberal democracy including the promotion of diverse views, individual rights, freedom of expression, equality before the law, and the rights of parents as first educators of their children.

The critical social justice movement uses tactics to advance and enforce its illiberal ideology such as “repressive tolerance” as it is described in academic terms. In reality, the tactics used end up bullying those who publicly oppose the ideology into silence by calling them racist, sexist, homophobic etc.

The aggressive bullying tactics have allowed the ideology to enter into our education system under the guise of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.

Parents, teachers, trustees, or other officials in Ontario, who try to voice their concerns about the content of these lesson plans are at risk of being dismissed, vilified, or publicly shamed.

This creates a chill effect as other concerned parents remain quiet in voicing their criticism to avoid the negative consequences associated with speaking out or criticizing the subject matter.

Woke ideology in K-12 education threatens the well-being of our students and our community.

We need to stop the Woke indoctrination in our schools and restore liberal education. 

We are calling on concerned parents and citizens from all backgrounds and political affiliations to join push-back efforts against Woke ideology.

Our educational system should focus on individual rights, tolerance for all differences, including reasonable views & opinions, and ensure that it is based on meritocratic system which rewards hard work and achievement.
