Barring that, an allowance may be made if both the parents had baptismal certificates, but not the child.<BR/><BR/>So tax dollars are indeed already going to fund religious NOT PUBLIC schools in Ontario- at least in York Region.Torianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12992414387201655110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20283843.post-60210012443077820462007-10-12T09:42:00.000-04:002007-10-12T09:42:00.000-04:00Joy McPhail is one to advise anyone - when the NDP...Joy McPhail is one to advise anyone - when the NDP/McPhail were the leaders in BC - look what happened - a financial mess. Look what happened when the NDP ran Ontario - rest my case.<BR/><BR/>Also, she should mind her own business - we don't tell other provinces how to vote or what to do.<BR/><BR/>There was the same uproar in Ontario when Davis brought in the Roman Catholic separate school. He lost the next election. People were so angry - and Muslims weren't an issue then. Davis gave into the pressures of Cardinal Carter about getting the Catholic vote. I know people who never voted Conservative again after that.<BR/><BR/>Can Joy McPhail not talk without screaming? What a nutbar.<BR/><BR/>I don't want to pay for someone's elses religious beliefs - it's not my responsibility - that goes to the clergy and families.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20283843.post-35313992455605025172007-10-12T09:25:00.000-04:002007-10-12T09:25:00.000-04:00I was shocked to hear them say on The Agenda, on T...I was shocked to hear them say on The Agenda, on TVO last night that the Catholic schools were public and anyone could go. They should be when they take public funding, but they aren't. You have to be baptized Catholic to attend the elementary schools.

They do make decisions based on 30 seconds sound bites and Font size 40 headlines in the major daily papers. If someone can find a way to get these people engaged in supervising and guiding any government vice just voting then we will go along way to fixing our sputtering electoral system. For example I have a lot of friends that know that I follow the game closely and I was fielding calls the night before the election asking me what the heck was up and if I could explain MMP to them.<BR/>Crabgrass, You can refer to the voters of AB as lemmings, I lived there for six years and I can tell you they still have not forgiven NEP and the Liberals for the economical devastation that it caused. Remember my friend it is a generational process and the young people thrown out of work in the early eighties due to NEP are now the main voting middle class taxpayers.Burton, Formerly Kingstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05539157151309542216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20283843.post-67257629397028976732007-10-12T07:28:00.000-04:002007-10-12T07:28:00.000-04:00Yup!

These are the people who read the headlines, develop an impression on that basis, and then head to the polls, half of them changing their minds on their way.<BR/><BR/>Ontario voters aren't nearly the lemmings that their Alberta counterparts are. Provincially, it's more a single party state (pardon <I>that</I> word) than Ontario, and federally, it's nothing short of comical. Twenty-eight seats, twenty-eight Conservatives. They're the kings of lemmingtude.
