Irony: a letter to the Globe

Much has been made, recently, of opposition politicians and interest groups complaining about the government's decision to cut off summer jobs funding to organizations that actively work to oppose activities permitted by the Canadian Constitution and Charter of Rights and Freedoms, such as abortion, contraception, sterilization, euthanasia, or embryonic stem cell research.

Is it not a bit ironic, then, that the Halton and District Catholic School Board has recently passed a motion that students in their jurisdiction shall not fundraise for non-profits or charities that publicly support “either directly or indirectly, abortion, contraception, sterilization, euthanasia, or embryonic stem cell research”?
