Just heard another unbelievable one on the radio, some of Simcoe County schools won't be allowing the little ones to bring their costumes to school for fear of offending some of the non conforming Canadians. Don't like it here, I'll show you the road to the Departures door at Malton.

Simcoe county? As far as I know most people there are accustomed to Canada. Not much multiculturalism either or am I missing something?

More like no one with any jewels in the jewlery bag. It's unfortunate the direction this country is taking.

Some religions ( Penticostal) say that it, ( halloween) is paying respects to the devil. A pagan festival. There are 250 million Penticostals , they make up 25% of the worlds Christians. What does school and teaching have to do will halloween?

Nothing at all, neither does Christmas, Valentines, and all the other events that are celebrated by the western world. The way I look at it, Hallowe'en, it's a kiddie event, what's the harm done by allowing the children to have a bit of fun.

Yikes for sure! That would make Christmas "Red Green Day" :D

I do not think it is the "westen world" , but more like the "Christian world", and this would be taking place in a public ( multi-faith), school.

 

Well it appears you have already been assimilated, I guess I'll have to send Jerrie (7 of 9) over to straigten out your sorry "donkey", I grew up in this country and I'm tired of having someone ram their :asshat: down my throat.

I am a 5th generation Canadian and I am Agnostic so religion really does not mean much to me ,BUT it is about respect for others beliefs. If you want to have a Celtic pagan ritual, thats fine , on your own time and not in a public school.
