  2. Your list did nothing to mitigate past and present Canadian land theft and genocide against "aboriginals". Canada is still building and occupying SETTLEMENTS on native land.

  3. So, if you can claim, as Antifa does, that everyone who you disagree with is a Nazi, then you have what have today. How convienient!

  4. I've dealt with Hedy professionally. It's her way or the highway and she's not open to discussion once she's decided something.

  5. http://www.ottawasun.com/2017/09/26/treatment-by-mps-at-m-103-committee-hearing-nothing-short-of-lousy Here is a sample of how the meetings are coming along and how they treat muslims themselves. It is pretty disgusting,.. But when I realized Hedy ( burning crosses in BC as we speak ) Fry was the chairperson, I knew the fix was in. Canadians better wake up before it is to late.

  8. I think that there's inherent value in common education, which is that value the French revolution promoted as 'Fraternité'. If we're so worried about immigrants not becoming Canadian enough, the answer is to blend them into classrooms where we have control over what they're taught. Charter schools will lead to separation and disunity IMO. 'Leading in math and science' is indeed a measure of how we're doing, but it's not the only one. Only a tiny minority of students will use these skills as a daily part of their job. The most important things that they learn are difficult if not impossible to measure: teamwork, industriousness, civic mindedness. But, unlike some, I feel that we need to listen to people who have complaints about the education system, just as we need to listen to complaints about the health system and justice system. For those of you who have students in public schools, I ask if the board/school provides an easy way to give feedback on their programmes. If so, have you tried to engage with them and how have the results been ?

  9. Eyeball, Universality? Canada's healthcare insurance is not transferable between provinces, or abroad. ==== Civilised Germany has a two tier system, without waiting lists. France also has a private/public system with lower overall costs. Heck, in America, there is Medicare and Medicaid. ===== Canada's health system is unsustainable. The only reason that it still exists, some 70 years later, is because provinces manage the system. If it were a federal, single-payer system, it would have collapsed like the Soviet Union or Mao's China.

  14. My preference for charter schools has nothing at all to do with privatization agenda. It is about CHOICE. I pay for what I get, and I expect to freedom to choose what I get to do with my money. Giving a monopoly on those tax dollars to union schools is usurping my right to make my own choices. You will note: we chose to send our kids to public schools when there were many private options. I simply object to government taking my money and giving me nothing in return if we had chosen otherwise. I should have no obligation to fund education of others in a different manner from what I chose. I also take issue with the notion that Canadian or American public education is so good we are leading in math or science anywhere. Would like to know the methodology from which these results were produced.
