What I like most about this article are the powerful fairy-tale allusions: “Don’t be fooled by the white paw of the wolf knocking on your door pretending to be your mother, the one wearing your grandma’s nightgown and pretending to be in need, or the house made of candy promising endless satisfaction while waiting for you to ripen.” Too bad school authorities are against fairy tales and other classic stories because some mythically sensitive child might call out, “I’m offended and harmed.” I remember the Toronto teacher investigated for reading the romantic Jacques Prevert poem “For you my love” because it has the word slave in it.

Your frustration and disappointment are understandable, but we live in a war time!

Because we are wiser, we have foresight. Because those who know more have greater responsibility. Because someone needs to protect the children as if they were their own. Because this is not just about us and the people close to us; it is about humanity and our country.

On a more self-interested note, because it is about the country our grandchildren and their descendants will live in.

My children & grandchildren are also grown but I signed. I’m sure some parents do care. And it’s protecting those kids whose parents might take them down a bad road.

We Canadians are thoroughly disgusted with these evil people. They committed treason amongst many other crimes. It is time to demand their arrest. This letter was faxed to 640 RCMP detachments in Canada yesterday. 333 to MP’s today. It is a legal notice to tell them we give consent. Please support it and drive the numbers up. We given consent to arrest! https://b.link/wegiveconsent
