I'm here with a couple of professors from Wilfred Laurier to talk about the Lindsay Shepherd scandal.

And what happened with Professor Rambo Cana and Pimlott and Administrator Adri?

Right, Adria Joel, who I think is the unsung What would you call it?

The unsung villain in this entire process?

Because she seems to have escaped relatively unscathed, even though I think her role is more reprehensible than anyone else's.

Anyways, why don't you guys introduce yourself and talk about what you've been doing?

And also just let everybody know why we're meeting.

Yeah, well Ah, I'm Dave Haskell, and I'm a prophet.

Laura, I'm in the faculty of liberal arts.

Well, how do we come into this whole thing like this is this didn't just happen with the Lindsay affair.

Like well, to the background, we support maximum freedom of expression, and we've really found each other along with a few other professors who feel the same way that we do that free expression and free inquiry is the core value of a university.

But sort of How do we run into each other?

The faculty arts is minimal, and I've been really sheltered from this professionally.

Watching what was happening to you at the FDA, I'm a grad.

And, um, it was in January that our university leadership sent out an email, um, explaining to the faculty how to think about the Trump travel ban and declaring its its commitment to diversity equity and inclusivity.

And I was really offended by that that they would see fit to pronounce on a political issue in another country.

I'm able to reach my own conclusions about whether these things were good or bad.

I don't need my administration preaching to me about the right way to think about an issue of political issue, particularly so why do you think they did that on DDE?

What do you think they were thinking when they did that?

Because that sort of seems self evident, right?

It's not the administration's rule to dictate a political stance to the faculty.

So what do you think they were thinking it would seem like a manifestation of Trump derangement syndrome.

It seems like just the same reaction that the Democrats in the U.

Were having, that they lost to this horrible person and they couldn't understand why.

And here was yet another terrible thing that he was doing.

Well, I mean, even if the funny thing is, even if you can make that case and say personally and even socially the idea that you could make that case and then be university administration and then tell your faculty to think that way I mean, that's taking it in a whole different.

That's taking it to a whole whole different level of presumptive presumptuousness.

Did that come from administration from the diversity and equity from the administration from the leadership, the university leadership?

I remember the It's confusing because I remember we also got a knee email from the Diversity and Equity Office when when Trump won and they said that they've created a safe space and they were gonna be open for extra hours in case anybody needed to go and find comfort right that happened a lot in the United States.

At least the Americans have some justification for it, given that it's their country.

Because a conservative was elected in the United States in the not even in our country.

It does seem to be a little bit on the absurd side.

Well, it's just to me, you know, they didn't send out an email when Justin Trudeau one.

And I have to imagine that there were some students who were offended, like there's got to be conservative students at Lori, but it's It's very much a one sided conversation when we talk about administration, when we talk about the diversity and equity office, they talk about diversity, but they really don't mean it because they do not want those students who are ideologically diverse.

They talk about inclusion, but they purposely will exclude those students.

And email like that is proof positive of that kind of exclusion.

But so well, that was that was the thing that just got me hopping mad, and I was e mailing back and forth with a colleague Queens on.

We were talking about the importance of free speech.

And this had outraged me and and he sent me a link to a star article that David had written.

This is now maybe a month later, in February or March about, uh, this guest speaker.

And when she was she, um Gomes, She's lawyer.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, eso Merely because she served as a defense lawyer for someone, she was pilloried.

Well, this was another like when people look at the Lindsay Shepherd affair, this is not an isolated case.

This is something that is it is a regular occurrence and now it isn't always as high profile, but whether it's students in my office saying I can't speak whether it's my colleague, sometimes saying to their students who believes that their stifled and every hand goes up and there have been cases of that.

Colleagues have come and told me, but we've got these other examples, Like when Daniel Robitaille.

I came to speak at the Branford campus of Wilfred Laurie and some students agitated until she was forced not to do so and and my my president, right, we should provide some background.

And so Ghomeshi was a CBC journalist who was accused of sexual assault and sexual misbehavior by a number of people who was immediately let go at CBC who was dragged viciously through the press, I would say, and then was found innocent in the court's down.

And But And he had a defense lawyer and the defense lawyer had been invited to speak.

She was going to speak, and she wasn't going to speak about the Ghomeshi trial.

In fact, she was going to talk about what it's like to be, ah, high power, powerful lawyer in the big city in Toronto.

And I mean, that would have been really valuable for the criminology students.

But the students who were agitating against her, really, with the support of several professors, they were saying, We'll know if she comes on, it will trigger students.

It will it will mentally harm students, and so that was used as justification for the eye.

Interesting to to be to see that these claims of harm and so forth are generally put forth by people who have no clinical expertise whatsoever.

And their idea is that the way that you, first of all, that the way to aid people's mental health is to protect them.

And there's no evidence for that whatsoever.

And the second is that in your attempts to protect them, the best thing to do is to shelter them from exposure to ideas that would be challenging or frightening, which is precisely the opposite of what a clinician does when he's trying to.

Or she is trying to deal with someone who has access, anxiety, what you do in a case where someone who has excess anxiety even as a consequence of a trauma, let's say, is you get them to voluntarily expose themselves to increasingly larger doses of exactly what frightens them.

So not only is it, um, advice that's being disseminated, say, by people who aren't clinicians.

It's actually advice that's being disseminated, who are promoting the opposite of what an informed clinician would do.

That's that that's is close to a consensus is anything you could reach among clinical practitioners, right?

One rules for clinical improvement is get your story straight.

Talk about your past, sorted out and expose yourself to the things that you're afraid of that you're inclined to avoid.

That's the pathway to two Brazilians said more robust mental health.

You guys have an inside view of what's happened on the Wilfred Loria campus since the the Lindsay Shepherd affair broke.

I should just say that, you know, after this rubber tie event, I read David's piece, immediately, e mailed him and just said, And that's how we 100 right?

And we met and we had lunch on, uh, in just talked about, you know, free speech in the Chicago statement.

And how can we get it implemented the university, But we just couldn't see anyway, forward and really Right.

So that's another thing we want to discuss.

You guys have rewritten the Chicago statement, right?

So that it's more appropriate in the Canadian content.
