A false narrative

RE: WORRIED ABOUT ALT-RIGHT? BE ANTI-RIGHT, AUG. 23

What seems to be the norm today is pushing the false narrative about conservatism. This is what the authors of the above column, university professors John Grant and Fiona MacDonald, are doing.

Conservatives condemn in the strongest terms fascism, white and other supremacists, neo-Nazis and any other hate or violence focused groups. Significant was that these two professors didn’t talk about Antifa, the extreme left group of violent masked criminals and cowards.

Fifteen years under Ontario Liberal premiers Dalton McGuinty and Kathleen Wynne silenced the conservative voice. The same thing is happening under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s extreme left-wing ideology with examples like “peoples kind” instead of “men kind” and the rejection of the summer jobs program to anyone who didn’t agree with Trudeau.

We have seen a totalitarian governing trend from liberals, provincially as well as federally. The left and media are justifying their name calling by accusing conservatives of racism and intolerance if they dare to disagree. The Liberals’ gender identity politics and political correctness is there to silence conservatives and discriminate against the silent majority.
