If you are white, particularly a white male, you are likely SOL. Section 15 of the charter of rights and freedoms is as written:
(1) Every individual is equal before and under the law and has the right to the equal protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination and, in particular, without discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age or mental or physical disability. (2) Subsection (1) does not preclude any law, program or activity that has as its object the amelioration of conditions of disadvantaged individuals or groups including those that are disadvantaged because of race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age or mental or physical disability.
White people (and white males specifically) are generally considered not to be "disadvantaged individuals" and as such, companies are to some degree allowed to discriminate against non-disadvantaged individuals in pursuit of "equality". Given how awful our courts are, I would not expect any judge to side favorably on this issue. You might have a shot if you fall under any other racial category.
That said, if you only have to "self-identify" as black, who are they to say otherwise? They can't ask for medical data proving anything, and there is no status card for black people like there is for aboriginals.
I self identify as President of a major University.
I suppose that means I can just walk in to said Canadian University and kick out that asshole running things right?
As the Self-Identified Canadian Department of Education, this is well within our policy.
The West is dying.
Is Thomas Sowell still alive?
Thomas Sowell quit teaching in the 60s because of the lack of academic rigor, could you imagine him walking into to lecture a bunch of soyboys?
He'd do great. Break their spirits on the first day
Yes. Retired but alive
They'd probably reject him for "unspecified reasons" that totally aren't at all ideological.
He'd be fine. If anyone tried to give him crap he can use their own tactics against them and play the racial discrimination card
Talcum X's time has come!
Your terms are acceptable.
May I present to you:
Black Professor of Afro-American Studies: Archie Bunker
Replace the entire class with recordings of Thomas Sowell lectures.
He's black, and his lectures will gives leftists brain aneurysms.
Calling Rachel Dolezal
Sue them. Although I dont know Canada’s laws.

True. I’d love to see a white person with like 3% African DNA apply sand self identify as black
How tf is this legal? I guess blah blah blah white privilege not “disadvantaged” or something.
Arguably blacks are more advantaged since they have many government benefits and affirmative action
