Many Of You Will No Doubt Remember Lindsey

Shepherd. She was the teaching assistant in the Department of Communications at Wilford Laurier University, who was subjected to a three-member panel of inquiry. After she showed a video taken from Canadian public television of me, debating the compelled speech legislation introduced in federal Bill C-16. She showed my discussion with Nicholas Matt, who held the opposite position here is part of the discussion in question what do we do? The three-member panel included professors Nathan Rambuchana, Her supervisor Herbert Pimlott in charge of the masters program and Adria Joel manager of gendered violence and sexual assault prevention. Shepard taped the meeting and released it publicly producing what I think was the biggest scandal that ever enveloped a Canadian university and certainly the only one in living memory that became news internationally.

The Thing Is Can You Shield

people from those ideas. to comfort them and make sure that they are insulated away from this like is that what the point of this is because to me that is so against what a university is about so against it. I was not taking sides. I was presenting both arguments. So the thing is about this is if you’re presenting something like this it.

You Have To Think About The

kind of teaching climate that you’re creating and this is actually these arguments are counter to the Canadian human rights code ever since I know that you’ve talked about C16 ever since this past it is discriminatory to be targeting someone um due to their gender identity or gender expression, so bringing something like that up in class not critically and I understand that you’re trying to like it was critical. I I introduced it critically how so like like I said. I it was in the spirit of debate okay and the spirit of the debate is slightly different than being like Okay. This is. This is like a problematic idea that we want to make when we want to unpack, but that’s taking sides yes like it’s taking sides for me to be like Oh look at this guy like everything that comes out of his mouth is bs but we’re gonna watch anyway.

Okay.

So I understand the position that you’re coming from in your positionality but the reality is that it has created a toxic climate for some of the students. It you know it’s how many it’s great like how many okay one yeah it may speak. I have no. I have no concept of of like how many people complain like what their complaint was you haven’t shown me the complaint yes.

I I Understand That.

This is upsetting, but there’s also confidential. At the end confidentiality matters. The number of people’s confidential Yes. Although the university apologized publicly for its treatment of shepherd, as did Rambu Khanna, It is not clear at all that the powers that be so to speak learned their lesson and the mistreatment of Shepard not only continued, but arguably intensified.

So She Decided To Press Her

case legally and presented a statement of claim against the three and Wilford Laurier early in the second week of June. It lists in painful detail the many ways that this situation was mishandled during and after the initial inquisition. I also discussed the situation with howard Levitt. Shepard’s Lawyer I decided that Wilford Laurier had learned very little from its public embarrassment and that shepard’s claims were valid justifiable and necessary, including her statement that her future lack of employability in academia was. Improbable to say the least I’ve been on hiring committees and I can tell you that even then the slightest whiff of scandal is enough to disqualify a candidate In consequence, not only did I decide to read and post the entirety of Shepard’s claims which I will do in a few minutes.

I Also Decided To Launch A Claim

of my own against the same defendants. I thought that two lawsuits might make the point better than one. I’ll read some of my claim to after shepherds and you can all make up your own minds about the suitability of this course of action. Ontario Superior Court of Justice between Lindsay, Shepard, Plaintiff and Nathan Rambuchana, Adria Jewell, Herbert Pimlott and Wilford Laurier University defendants statement of claim to the defendant a legal proceeding has been commenced against you by the plaintiff.

A student in the University Masters program, pursuing her master’s degree and employed as a teaching assistant for a course under Rambuchana and following that under professor Judith Nicholson as a teaching assistant, Shepard supported a class taught by Professor Rambikana. She was generally responsible for teaching two groups of approximately 25 students was assigned topics and was entitled pursuant to the policies of the university and of Rambuchana to devise her own curriculum was an indifferent mentor who had only met with Shepard twice about his course and only then briefly ironically given his complaint against her as delineated below.

He Provided Her With Very Limited Direction

as to the content to provide to her students in his classes. The topic for one of her communication classes held on November 1st 2017 was Grammar she taught three classes that day, Shepard introduced the topic of the grammatical correctness of. Gender-neutral language in the evolution of various languages and to facilitate discussion on the subject showed a few minute extract from a Tv Ontario program moderated by Stephen Paken, consisting of a debate between Professor Jordan Peterson of the University of Toronto Psychology department and Nicholas Matt from the University of Toronto’s sexual diversity studies program. Peterson and Nicholas Matt were debating compelled gender pronouns. Peterson argued against being required to use these new words which he argued had not developed organically.

Matt Took An Opposing Position Shortly Following

that class Rambuccana ordered her to attend a meeting the very next day with himself. Pimlott the program coordinator for the entire Masters program and Adria. Joel acting director of the Diversity and Equity office. Both Rambukana and Pimlot had considerable authority over Shepard’s fate at the university apparently so did Joel Shepard had never been called into such a meeting. Rambikana to that point had barely acknowledged her existence At this session.

All Three Lambasted Shepherd Viciously Attacking

her personally falsely alleging that there had been a complaint or complaints about her tutorial and insisting that in playing the Tv Ontario clip she had been threatening to her students. Rambokanic claimed that her showing this Tv Ontario clip breached the charter of rights and Freedoms and federal Bill C-16, which does not even govern provincially regulated universities created an unsafe learning environment and was illegal. Shepard was accused of targeting trans folks. Even though Shepard had chosen no side had up till that point disagreed with what she understood to be. Peterson’s perspective and presented the arguments and the debate neutrally.

Ram Buchana Attacked And Slandered Peterson, Claiming

that he was part of the Alt-right and that playing a clip of Peterson without first providing any previous context to the. Like neutrally playing a speech by Adolf Hitler, Shepherd argued that doing as he asked would be taking sides and that was not her role. She was then further rebuked for taking that position at various points during that almost hour,-long vicious and abusive attack Shepard was reduced to tears ironically, rather than being a present-day personification of Adolf Hitler as rambuchana implied Jordan Peterson has spent decades educating his students about the evils of the Holocaust and specifically as part of his psychological teachings. Has studied and taught how individuals degenerate ethically to the point where they take place to the point where they take part in atrocities. As part of his psychological teachings.

He Has Studied And Taught How

individuals degenerate ethically to the point where they take part in atrocities During the meeting. Shepard was Effectively attacked as a protege and supporter of Peterson. Pimlott continued to libel Peterson, explaining that people like him live in a fantasy world of false conspiracy and accusing Shepard of being an agent of those ideas because she had neutrally shown this video with its opposing viewpoints. Rambu Cana falsely but imaginatively claimed that Shepard herself was targeting people based on their gender identity or gender expression and in doing so had violated the federal Human Rights Code of Bill C-16. Although Shepard’s conduct was in no way violent of of that or any law.

Shepard Asked The Individual Defendants Whether Her

job as a teaching assistant was to shield her students from debate and ideas. Rambukana asserted that it was and then accused her of targeting students due to their gender expression and identity. When shepard pointed out that she had not taken sides in this debate. The Three rebuked her for creating a toxic climate. The three refused to advise Shepard what the complaint was or who complained claiming that even the number of complaints was confidential, as was subsequently ascertained.

There Had Been No Complaint At All.

Shepard protested that she did not understand how her teaching methods constituted any disservice to the university since the ideas in the video were already part of social currency. Joel responded without any foundation accusing her of spreading transphobia. Rambukana added to jewel’s attack by essentially.
