By that logic being a lawyer or judge need not require any understanding or proficiency of the law.

What is truly frightening is that this is happening under a Conservative provincial government.Who will turn this tide, if nothing them?And is the case being appealed? Not that we can expect much better from the SCC.

This begs the question: why are any kinds of ideology being forced on children? Isn't the point of public education to teach children to read, to write, to master at least some basic level of mathematics and an introduction to science? Oh wait.. I know the answer... the government(s) want the Marxist indoctrination to start as early as possible before any hint of critical thinking creeps in to sully the virgin minds...

What is more objective than mathematics? Basic math proficiency has nothing to do with race. If you aren’t proficient in basic mathematics, you don’t pass, period. Sorry, not sorry.

As a former public schoolteacher from back in the "politically correct" days, all I would add is that a lot of this ideological "progress" is driven by a sense teachers have that they are doing something morally "good," rather than something dutiful, professional and responsible, in teaching children. This leaves them prey to whatever comes along that claims to be good--and once someone has decided they are on a higher moral plane they won't, or can't, admit they might be wrong.
