  • I don’t know anything about this company, but in a lot of this would legally be considered libel and they could get sued.

    Also this is a dumb thing to do. If I saw this I would not apply to this company.

    I’ve interviewed a lot of people for jobs, I’ve seen no-shows and stuff like that. When that happens you simply remove them from your pipeline and move on.









  • Every time I drive across this great province I find myself in awe of our nature and views. Last year I saw a peregrine falcon near Bancroft, we have some awesome nature.

    I hope we can maintain our wildlife, our bogs and marshes, and our flood plaines as it’s a lot easier to let nature manage flooding and climate than us artificially trying to fix the mistakes that mindlessly plowing then building and moving on causes.


  • I’d rather not

    Mongoloid in that context is a reference to people with Down’s syndrome having similar eyes to Asian people, who were referred to as the mongoloid race.

    Using elongoloid I think just brings back the dehumanization of those two groups. Plus it uses people with downs as a benchmark for stupidity, which I think is wrong (there’s a very wide spectrum of capability for Downs people).

    I like the Forest Gump philosophy: “stupid is as stupid does”, and Elon Musk does more stupid on a daily basis than any downs person I’ve ever met, and probably in all of history.

    Side note: my sister has Downs, so making fun of them is a bit of a trigger for me. I like a good natured ribbing and can take jokes, but that’s my off limits area. I hope you don’t take my comment the wrong way, I’m not mad or offended, just throwing in my thoughts.
