Federal, provincial and territorial ministers responsible for human rights have just wrapped up their 3rd meeting in the past 32 years. (Anyone surprised that h...uman rights don't get more regular senior level political attention in this country?) I moderated a discussion between ministers and human rights activists yesterday that covered a lot of ground. Civil society will release its reaction to the outcome of the meeting tomorrow, but meanwhile, here are reminders of some fundamental concerns that were sent to ministers in advance. Note the outrage that the governments of Quebec and Alberta decided to stay away: - Quebec because it shamefully and shamelessly sticks to its disgraceful position that there is no "systemic" racism in the province. - Alberta because it groundlessly asserts that it has no obligation to engage on international human rights treaties that have been ratified by the federal government (such ratifications, which go back 50 years, of course being on behalf of the ENTIRE country). Anyone wonder at the failure to advance strong and effective implementation of and compliance with our international human rights obligations ACROSS the country?

On ne peut pas militer pour les personnes noires et rejeter les personnes queers, et vice versa. Exclure certains groupes marginalisés de nos revendications n...e fait que renforcer les systèmes de discrimination et de violence qu’on cherche à démanteler. - Shadé Edwards L’étudiante de deuxième année en common law à la Faculté de droit a organisé et animé la séance virtuelle Les intersections de l’identité noire, l’orientation sexuelle et l’activisme: une conversation avec Desmond Cole et Reakash Walters, à laquelle ont assisté 500 membres de la communauté universitaire le 17 septembre dernier. http://ow.ly/tSKM50BRgcP
