This will be as close to seriously political as I get.
John Tory wants to fund all faith-based schools and that is getting some people all bent out of shape.
Dalton McGinty has jumped on this by saying we should all go to school "Together!"
His commercials make me nauseous. When I see them I can actually feel the sick get caught in my throat.
In a way, I agree with both. Here's why. (With apologies to all my Catholic peeps.)
If you fund a separate school system for Catholics then you should fund one for all faith-based schools. (Tory's point.)
But if you want us all to learn "Together," ( Help me gag-reflex) then get rid of the only ONE you are funding .
That's never going to happen.
(Interesting the Liberals want us all to "learn together", "be together" and "understand each other." Just not the Separate School System!)
So if you're not going to cease funding the Catholic schools then you should fund all the other faith-based ones. Why should you get to direct your property taxes into a certain system because you believe in a certain religious point of veiw?
Seems simple but of course it's not.
My wife doesn't agree with me and maybe you won't either. I will say I've always found a separate school board unfair long before this election. It just seems strange that in 2007 any religion would have an advantage over any others and that's what this is.
An unfair advantage.
