Reconciliation propaganda in high school exposed by BC teen
A 16-year-old B.C. high school student says he is being denied the opportunity to return to class unless he removes his YouTube video called “Lies and Reconciliation,” which exposed some of the propaganda that was pushed on students during his school's Truth and Reconciliation Day programming.
Isaac Simpson, a Grade 11 student enrolled in a Lower Mainland school's film and television program, decided to put his filmmaking skills to use after growing frustrated with what he was being taught about Canada's history, often unbeknownst to parents.
From a masked Black Lives Matter advocate telling students about truth, to another virtual speaker telling the youth to embrace discussions of “land back,” to a disturbing exaggerated illustration depicting Catholic nuns and an RCMP officer forcibly tearing Indigenous children from their mothers, Simpson's video gives parents a rare look inside the classroom.
“I got really sick of all the indoctrination being pushed down students' throats,” Simpson told me. “They were just telling you what to think, not how to think.”
But his decision to expose the material came at a cost.
After initially being suspended for what the school described as a period of “pause and reflection,” Simpson and his parents attended a meeting with school officials that the teen likened to an interrogation.
Simpson documented that experience in a second video posted to his YouTube channel, Isaac Simpson's Flying Circus. Both videos have since been gaining attention online.
Now, Simpson says he has been told he cannot return to school unless the videos come down. He refuses to comply.
“I'm not taking it down because, you know, I stand by what I said,” Simpson explained.
I caught up with the young filmmaker to find out why it was important for him to expose what's happening in his public school despite the risk.
For Simpson, the issue is bigger than his suspension. Currently, "parents have no way of figuring out what is being taught in schools,” he said.
I also spoke with his mother, former Global News director and current B.C. political commentator Anita Krishna, about the school's response and what comes next.

BREAKING NEWS
Liberal MPs on the Government Operations Committee just voted to block an investigation into how a man accused by CSIS of helping Iran's military and the IRGC kept receiving Canadian government contracts.
CSIS alleged Mohammad Reza Ghafouri Fard participated in procurement activities that benefited the Iranian military and Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
He had been flagged for national security reasons as early as 2017.
CSIS sent its security report to immigration officials in 2023.
Yet his companies kept receiving Canadian tax dollars including from the Department of National Defence.
Conservatives asked for ONE committee meeting to investigate how this was allowed to happen.
The Liberals shut down debate.
What are the Liberals trying to hide?

The International Criminal Court seeks to become the unaccountable arbiter of a new global law — empowered to prosecute and arrest our citizens at will and existentially threaten American sovereignty.
We will teach the ICC the full meaning of American resolve.

If you voted for Carney because you thought he had some kind of wizard power when it comes to negotiating with the U.S., you must be severely disappointed.
This bridge deal is proof that Carney isn’t special.
He’s just another Liberal.

Tommy Robinson provides a message
The same can be said for Canada. The conservatives lost by 2.45% of the vote.
Only 43% of Canadian youth 18 to 25 voted
76% age 55 and over voted
If the Canadian youth want change, they need to show up

Christopher Hitchens: ”In 1786, when the United States was barely a country, it was having its sailors taken as slaves by the Barbary states, the states of the Ottoman Empire and North Africa. Tripoli, shores of Tripoli. Ships stopped, its crews carried off into slavery. We estimate 1.5 million European and American slaves taken between 1750 and 1815.
Jefferson and Adams went to their ambassador in London and said, why do you do this to us? The United States has never had a quarrel with the Muslim world of any kind. We weren't in the crusades. We weren't at war with Spain. Why do you do this to our people and our ships? Why do you plunder and enslave our people? The ambassador said very plainly, Mr. Abdul Rahman said, because the Quran gives us permission to do so, because you are infidels, and that's our answer. Jefferson said, well, in that case, I will send a navy which will crush your state, which he did.
Islamic fundamentalism is not created by American democracy. It's a lie to say so. It's a masochistic lie, and it excuses those who are the real criminals, and blames us for the attacks made upon us.”

INFURIATING and HEARTBREAKING: This sweet little girl, Jocelyn Nungaray, 12, was r*ped, t-rtured her for hours and executed by illegal aliens from Venezuela.
Police say she fought for her life against the two grown men, biting and scratching one so badly that one still had visible marks at arrest.
Jocelyn Nungaray - say her name. REPOST this and wake people up. Her life mattered.

MLA Tara Armstrong just tabled a bill to abolish the human Rights Tribunal and to nullify its absurd $750,000 fine against Barry Neufeld.
Do you support this?
The Human Rights Tribunal exists to silence conservative speech by labeling any opposition to the Left as "hateful." They fined Barry Neufeld $750,000 for believing men can't become women.
Today I introduced legislation to abolish the Human Rights Tribunal.

A British Columbia school trustee was fined $750,000 by a human rights tribunal for arguing there are two genders.
Meanwhile the Gov who violated the rights and freedoms of millions of Canadians hasn’t been held accountable for a thing.
Canada is broken
