Human rights advocate Robin Durling said the association is not breaking the law.

"There are all sorts of exemptions to say that it's okay to sometimes exclude certain kinds of people to make a better place for a different kind of people," Durling said.


Is that a fact? Can you imagine if Surrey Minor Hockey decided to not allow Non/Whites to sign up?

If the Vancouver Canucks only took Euro's.....uh oh...wait a minute.

Just remember, only whitey can be racist.

Everyone else gets a free pass to do what they want.


Tip of the iceberg.

[maldonsfecht]

I welcome any and all addition of Dutch ladybits into the group... I've seen your Olympic women's teams AND first-hand in Amersfoort/Utrecht/Amsterdam/Groningen... Shall I send you and your cousins a membership-form?
