And if you are a Canadian with the perception that you have no skin in the game there is even more of a sense that you really need to move on.<\/p>\n<div style=\"float: left; margin-right: 14px;\"><strong><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45658\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n<p>Even Hillary generously expressed that we need to have an open mind and give Trump a chance. That&#8217;s de rigueur for a concession speech I suppose, but for the rest of us it is not so easy. Aside from needing time to process, grieve and rage over the injustice of it all, I am coming to the conclusion that we \u2013 and by &#8216;we&#8217; I mean the universe that may be affected by the Trump win \u2013 actually have a duty not to get over it.<\/p>\n<p>My friend and colleague Hugh Mackenzie said in an earlier column that one of the positives in Trump&#8217;s win is that Americans and Canadians now have an opportunity to determine who we are and what defines our values. I agree.<\/p>\n<p>I also think that Trump&#8217;s win may have strengthened our social justice activism in a way not seen since the 1960s. While I do not equate Trump&#8217;s rise with Nazism, we all need to be alarmed when the racist alt-right salutes the president-elect with a Nazi salute and the homage of \u201cHeil Trump.\u201d And we needed to react with outrage when they were not slapped down immediately by Mr. Trump. Rather than denouncing these cretins, Trump chose to lash out at Broadway actors speaking for inclusiveness and love.<\/p>\n<p>Canadians are not immune. Trump didn&#8217;t create the ugly &#8216;isms&#8217; that roil beneath the surface of human decency but he did encourage them to rise to the surface. Many of us know people who hold views that are anathema to us personally but as long as they keep those views to themselves we could go along to get along. Those same people, on both sides of the border, now feel emboldened to allow what has festered beneath to come to the surface.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent Ontario by-election, one of the candidates, an extreme, socially conservative 19-year-old man who is \u201c100 per cent pro-life&#8221;, has called homosexuality a &#8220;sin&#8221; and has posted homophobic comments on social media, has been sent to Queen&#8217;s Park. At least he has youth and ignorance as an excuse. Conservative MP and party leadership candidate Kellie Leitch does not. \u201cIt\u2019s an exciting message and one that we need delivered in Canada as well,\u201d she declared regarding Trump\u2019s victory. \u201cIt\u2019s the message I\u2019m bringing with my campaign to be the next Prime Minister of Canada. It\u2019s why I\u2019m the only candidate who will ensure that every visitor, immigrant, and refugee will be screened for Canadian values.\u201d What we need to do is to speak up. The Conservative Party needs to speak up instead of offering a mealy-mouthed defense of these two.<\/p>\n<p>Donald Trump was democratically elected. There is nothing to be done about it; not by Americans and certainly not by Canadians and not for four more years. He WILL be the U.S. President.<\/p>\n<p>It may feel like Americans \u2013 and the rest of us \u2013 are powerless, but there are better actions to be taken than reacting in outrage on Facebook &#8230; though that is part of the approach, too. I applaud all of these ideas.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"modern-quote full\"><p>It feels like 1960 again when people gave a crap.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Writer Leon Wieseltier, trying to work out similar feelings in reaction to the idea of &#8216;giving Trump a chance&#8217; came to this conclusion: \u201cI\u2019m all for empathy, but empathy is not agreement,\u201d said Wieseltier, who published in The Washington Post under the headline, Stay Angry. &#8220;That\u2019s the only way to uphold principles in Trump\u2019s America,\u201d he added, \u201cThere\u2019s a moral imperative here. You can\u2019t be for or against racism. You have to be against it. You have to agitate for what you believe in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan Greenblatt, the CEO of the Anti-Defamation League pledged: &#8220;Because I care about the fight against anti-Semitism, that if one day in these United States, if one day Muslim-Americans will be forced to register their identities, then that is the day that this proud Jew will register as a Muslim. Because fighting prejudice against the marginalized is not just the fight of those minorities. It\u2019s our fight. Just as the fight against anti-Semitism is not only the fight of us Jews. It\u2019s everyone\u2019s fight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Thousands are joining anti-hate and advocacy groups. Join them.<br \/>\nThousands have decided that if they &#8216;see something, they&#8217;ll say something.&#8217; Speak up.<br \/>\nReport hate crimes. There are laws against it.<\/p>\n<p>Early signs of what the Trump administration may look like: A man associated with white supremacy and misogyny will be White House chief strategist; a man rejected for a judgeship because of alleged racism will be attorney general; and an Islamophobe who has taken money from Moscow will be national security adviser. Staying quiet is not an option.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"modern-quote full\"><p>I know that not all Trump supporters are despicable, white-power racists. But they did vote for one.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I don&#8217;t think less of Trump voters because they have different politics, I think less of them because of their willingness to support racism, sexism and cruelty. So, I won&#8217;t be &#8216;moving on&#8217; any time soon. Donald Trump disgusts me and the fact that he doesn&#8217;t disgust everyone is the issue that will stick in my craw until he is democratically cast aside.<\/p>\n<p><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-20998\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/09\/Screen-Shot-2016-09-28-at-3.42.59-PM-282x300.png\" alt=\"Dale Peacock\" width=\"282\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/09\/Screen-Shot-2016-09-28-at-3.42.59-PM-282x300.png 282w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/09\/Screen-Shot-2016-09-28-at-3.42.59-PM.png 460w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 282px) 100vw, 282px\" \/>Following a career in the hospitality sector and the acquisition of a law and justice degree in her 50s, Dale embarked on a writing career armed with the fanciful idea that a living could be made as a freelancer.
