Diversity Hiring- Phooey!

Toronto is back into the diversity kick. I don't think they have learned a thing over the years. OK, let's put it on the table and in a different context. You need some renovations done in your home. You put out some inquiries and 5 contractors come to your home. All the contractors are of a different nationality. All come back with about the same quote, but one in particular comes with reference letters, pictures, and a resume of qualifications in the renovation area. Who are you going to get to do your renovation?
Now let's put this in the area of hiring for the City of Toronto or any city or town. Why not hire the best and most qualified person for the job? Diversity should be out the window. That is partially why we have inefficient and unproductive problems in the public sector. We want to do what looks good in the eyes of someone!! I don't know who this someone is, but you can be sure that they are hiring the best person for the job when it comes to a renovation being done in their home. Just watch the show Holmes on Homes and you see where I'm going. Green, pink, grey, white, black, out the window I say!!
I mean I'm really...
Just Saying
