I have been negotiating the terms of a proposed debate\/discussion about political correctness with the University of Toronto administration. However, they are concerned about the legality of my recent rejection of legislatively-imposed politically correct language, and the potential entanglement of the university. As my employer, the university is, under the same legislation, legally responsible for my speech. I suggested that they would be better occupied supporting my right to speak the words I believe to be true, as outlined in their own Statement on Freedom of Expression (1992).<\/p>\n
They rejected that suggestion, deciding instead to take the Route of Social Justice. That sums up the state of the modern university. Those who have ears, let them hear.<\/p>\n
