I can name other countries and example of people coming to Western countries with barely any money, from poverty stricken countries and they didn't moan or complain regardless of how people may or may not have treated them. No blame, just self responsibility.
u should see how asians are treated in canada. we don't have many black people so white people here blame their misfortunes on asians. ridiculous as ****. asians literally don't cause any problems in society here yet are hated, just working hard to make a living here, but are the blame for everything. **** it's not asian people sittin on the sidewalks everyday outside my place like lazy bums doing hard drugs. i wonder if it would be the same in america if there were no black people

About time. I've often thought, while flying 35,000 feet above sea level through an atmosphere hostile to life in a small metal can with wings, one thing that would make the whole experience enjoyable would be if it were designed, built and tested using non merit hiring.

What could be more reassuring?

Guess I’m scratching that company off the list of places to work for.

Pretty sure no one wants to get hired because of their race or gender, unless it’s D.O.P.E. or Jaydawg.

Yeah i have a hard time understanding why we let BLM and American problems trickle into Canada just because we take in their media. Natives, brown guys and asians are openly bashed up here. Not saying black people dont have their own problems up here, but holy **** its blown out of proportion.

lol i agree. we had a BLM protest in vancouver, with apparently thousands, but i rarely see black people and i've been here my whole life. but the ones i do see are the nicest people ever and nobody has anything against them. even my supervisor was like "oh yeah im doin a lot of things for BLM because im a white female" i'm like ok...nice lol. she's nice though, but that came out of nowhere

That's not how math works.

20% increase in black employees, not increase it to make it 20% of their workforce.

Maybe Boeing only had 5 black guys hired and only have to hire one more to make this positive PR

Representation is a myth. They're still willfully choosing to hire black people specifically which means those 20 jobs you referenced are not being staffed by the BEST possible workers, they're being staffed by token workers. To INCLUDE 20 black people you must intentionally EXCLUDE everyone else.

It's racist. Just admit it and move along with your day.

Unfortunately, the same cabal pushing marxism in the US completely controls all of Canada. You guys are soo much closer to them installing socialism/communism than many even realize.

I sincerely hope Canada wakes up before its too late, I srsly hope that.


Anyone, anywhere who has not yet realized that choosing people based on skin color and not merit for some of themost important, technical jobsaround has absolutely nothing to do with "equality" is sound asleep and in denial.

If you were going to destroy a major, technical corporation how exactly would you do it? Would you hire competent, best qualified people for extremely important jobs? Or would you hire people basedsolely on their skin color and not their ability to get the job done?

The answer is soo simple, and we're all watching it in real time. We are watching a conspiracy on a massive scale to collapse US industry, prop China up, and install global socialism where we ALL equalize at the lowest common denominator. That is the truth.

As far as saying hire the “best” candidate how can that be quantified? You can poke holes in any theory. It’s hard to say who is “best.”
People go to university to get degrees and become educated as to how to filter out under qualified and figure out who is most qualified.

Almost like testing their intelligence, personality, work history, and references help indicate who appears the most qualified. I guess we throw away merit since its not 100% accurate in predicting outcome and go by race instead.

canada is in a different sort of condition though. the US is an economic power, but our economy is garbage. we strongly rely on international support and international people to keep our economy going, like international students, international businesses, and cheap manufacturing, because we don't have the economic power like the US does. idk what it's due to, i think the government just doesn't have the budget or intelligence to develop canada further. like our local manufacturing factories... are only for small-medium sized businesses. we don't have any industries here that have any economic value worldwide. except our colleges i guess. that's the reason why most of the colleges here now are like 90% international students, it's because we need their funding. they pay 3x more than everyone else.

i don't think most canadians realize how underdeveloped we are lol. even countries that people refer to as third world are more advanced than us. like India has jio. that itself is remarkable. people in the smallest desolate villages of india can have super high speed internet connection, whereas in vancouver mother****in shaw internet keeps disconnecting on me god damn son. we are pretty much a ****ed country, no development or progress at all.

Any company that employees a majority with hard science degrees is not going to have many black applicants. I bet they already have a 100% black acceptance rate. Add 10 more janitors to the employee list and call it a day, and I'm not exagerating.


A medical school in Michigan near Detroit was placed on academic probation a few years ago for not having a high enough percentage of black students. There weren't even enough black applicants to fill the quota. Fking clown world.
