Yes, I think you're referring to a quote from an op-ed that was published in the Toronto Sun in February, entitled “Scientists and engineers to public: save us from ourselves”. It was really a plea to have some sort of intervention, perhaps, in trying to remove these EDI directives. In that particular one, I cited examples of open racial discrimination in hiring faculty. There was a call for six Black and six indigenous faculty, and it involved discrimination against those two groups.
While I agree that people are well-intentioned, I think what happens is that you end up institutionalizing racial discrimination. I don't think that instantiating this type of sectarianism in a university or a society is healthy.
