There is one problem I'd like to bring into the open. It's the use (or abuse) of the education system by the spin doctors of would be politicians. For instance, recently in my area, taxpayers' money was used to promote a speaking tour for Justin Trudeau. For those of you who don't know Justin Trudeau, he is a son of the late Pierre Trudeau, a former Prime Minister of Canada. The cynics in Canada make utterances to the effect that the Trudeaus want to be Canada's answer to the Kennedys. Justin is starting off by being a Liberal Party candidate in the next Federal election. Maybe Justin is a nice boy but I personally don't see what he has to offer the political or the education system. It seems to me that both of the Trudeau boys - Sacha is the other - were born with a silver foot in their mouths. One big issue is the seizure of an education system and the infliction of a questionable ideology being thrust upon a captive audience of innocents who don't know any better but enjoyed a break from real education. It seems so much worse when one is confronted by the fact that the Catholic School system is rolling out the red carpet for someone who appears to have little to offer beyond the fact that he doesn't stand for too much and appears ready to fall for anything.

Probably not because Canadians have extremely short memories. Justin Trudeau, asssuming he can even tie his shoe laces, won't be all that and a bag of chips when he lowers Canada's profile. Trudeaus=Kennedys: useless, gosspi pages fodder.
