Ontario public servants to get mandatory sensitivity training on indigenous people, history

More than 60,000 members of Ontario’s public service will soon receive mandatory sensitivity training regarding the history and experiences of the province’s indigenous people, the Star has learned.

Premier Kathleen Wynne is expected to announce on Wednesday that every OPS employee will receive mandatory indigenous cultural competency and anti-racism training. Ontario’s public servants work in all government ministries from finance to child welfare, agencies and Crown corporations.

Wynne is also expected to further outline mandatory learning expectations in the province’s public education curriculum to include the impact of residential schools, the history of colonization and the role of treaties signed between the Crown and First Nations.

The changes push Ontario toward addressing the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s (TRC) 94 recommendations, released last June, which are meant to incorporate indigenous culture and teaching throughout Canadian society.

Says the guy that hates brown people and loves the idea of cultural ghettos.

Why are ON govt employees so insensitive to FNs? Asians Arabs and Indians are pricks?

Many threads before today on Harper apologizing to first nations and not a peep from flossy in any of those threads...
A leftwing premier starts making empty promises and flossy starts salivating, as if she don't get enough fluffing...
Flossy must be looking for an extra job....

Why look for work when you can play the disability pity card.

He went on a spamming spree after I hurt his feelings. I bet it was the thread about his Uncles moronic idea to create cultural ghettos. I think hating brown people runs in Flossy's family.

No one's making up anything about you Flossy.

Is it your head injury or drug use that cause your bouts of paranoia?

 

[petros]

The 500t labotamy probably did more cognitive damage than the drugs which do emotional damage.

 

[Jinentonix]

So uh, will any Indigenous public servants be forced to take this sensitivity training?

Wynne is also expected to further outline mandatory learning expectations in the province’s public education curriculum to include the impact of residential schools, the history of colonization and the role of treaties signed between the Crown and First Nations.

Oh cool, yet another opportunity for the leftards to force their revisionist version of history on the younger generation.

Are they going to promote that Indians are better than Muslims? I don't see it going further than than once you look back at the last 150 years of having the opportunity to do do just what is now being proposed. The Indians should be asking for UN Peace Keepers to patrol their borders.

I've read the course outlined in the local high school, who have a FN course, since we have a rez in the region. If she follows that format, it isn't revisionist and quite frankly lacks much of the history it should contain.

Just an FYI, when my sons took courses at Enaahtig learning centre (An Anish learning and healing centre in Victoria Harbour Ont), I made sure they were exempt from the course portion on "Living in a colonial state". The course outline was racist, divisive and quite frankly, one of the biggest problems with healthy integration into modern society, as far as i was concerned.

You're an idiot, please refrain from interrupting the adults.

Coming from a self-confessed troll that is funny, like that qualifies you as being anything close to being an adult..

since we have a rez in the region.

Perhaps you are unaware that there are Reservations all across the land.

Perhaps that just because I admit that I'm a troll, doesn't negate my ability to have an adult conversation.

If you weren't an idiot, I wouldn't have had to explain that to you.
