The war against white males...

The war continues on many fronts. This front-page story in the National Post just makes me sick.

A major federal department has temporarily banned the hiring of able-bodied white men in an unusual move critics say could spark a backlash against the very disadvantaged groups it is meant to help.

Managers in the Public Works department must hire only visible minorities, women, aboriginals and the disabled, except with written permission from their superiors, David Marshall, the deputy minister, ordered in an e-mail circulated yesterday.

I really hate lumping many groups of people (Jews, Greeks, Russians, Ukranians, many Latins, etc) into a so-called group called 'white males'.

Shouldn't we have more respect?

In addition, the only way for our government to hire properly is on MERIT. We need to teach our children that the tint of your skin is irrelevent to being hired or fired.
