It's news that someone said it out loud and that it was published. The political correctness monitors in the province of Ontario have gone to great lengths to suppress the statistical information that would no doubt tell us the problem is not just bad but disastrous. If the numbers told a different story they would be freely available and trotted out regularly.

In 1993 I provided a submission to the Commission on Systemic Racism in the Ontario Criminal Justice System and the chief concern of the Committee members at the time was that statistics would be used incorrectly or incompletely by us peons to cast a poor light on ethnic groups. There is no BS or exaggeration in my statement. The only thing I found systemic in the process was the subversion of politically inconvenient facts which negatively impacts us to this day.
