		<description>Hey Michelle. Those passages up north will come in handy when global warming opens them up, eh? Wasn&#039;t an American (Naval Officer to boot) first on scene up thar? Finders keepers?  Just kidding.

Sheep country? Nah, don&#039;t get your &quot;you know what&#039;s&quot; in a wad. Your Sheep demographics are about the same proportions as in the US with one additional &quot;distractor&quot;- IE, 3 separate countries in one- French Canadian, Far North native American and Others.. Here we just have Yankees, crackers and left coasties! LOL.

		<description>Okay. My obligatory reply.

Personally, I&#039;m not buying it. Its just too ridiculous at too many levels. Although I would have gladly taken an interest-free grant as opposed to a loan when I was in university. Wouldn&#039;t you?

I know this isn&#039;t the point, but with at least a perceived lack of funding in almost all areas of post-secondary education, its not like either the feds or the provinces are going to pony up more funds for this kind of fooishness. Although I will have to check into this reference of &quot;Islophobia&quot; from the Ont Human Rights Commission. Perhaps they have lost what&#039;s left of their minds?

I know the point is in the asking, no demanding of such.... it strains my abilities to use the word &quot;accommodations&quot; here.... But I wouldn&#039;t fret it too much, we&#039;re not quite the sheep you may think we are. And I can assure that when my youngsters commence post-secondary education, the moment they were required to take such a course, the appropriate human rights complaint or judicial review application will be initiated. Not that I believe that will be necessary because it wll never go that far.

B2 to answer your question, having invented ice hockey as you noted, we are fairly comfortable in the Great White North. You would protect your sovereignty in a heart beat. Why would you expect any less of us? Good fences make good neighbours, no? 

Besides, it wouldn&#039;t be good to get into too much of a sheep mindset, woud it? Not in today&#039;s world.</description>

		<description>The article about the Minnesota Muslim cab drivers wasn&#039;t on CNN.com, it was an article on Reuters.com, which I found thru &lt;a href=&quot;http://mobyrebuttal.blogspot.com/2007/04/muslim-cabbies-must-transport-unclean.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;BlondeSagacity&lt;/a&gt;.</description>
