An Ontario Catholic organization is returning the Order of Canada medal given to its founder to protest awarding abortionist Dr. Henry Morgentaler with the same distinction.
Hmmm I agree with this. If I had one I would throw it over the fence at Rideau Hall in a show of passionate distaste for how easy it is to get an OOC and that Murderers can get it too.
"Mr_Canada" said They can throw away their medals, but I hope they don't revoke his.
People have their views and all, but believe that the OOC shouldn't be opinionated to just one side.
They'll give one to this guy. They'll give one to a Christian. Call him a Murderer, call him what you want, but no matter how much you disagree with his views, he won the award.
So go ahead and throw the medal back.
Those who think that people of opposing views aren't deserving of awards need to understand that he successfully applied for all the necessary requirements to be awarded. Thus, he deserves it, in my humble opinion.
He didn't win shit, 3 or 4 people + the GG thought this would be a good thing for a dying killer, they even went as far as to not announce it until the Friday night of a long weekend. They knew if it was on the list the Canada celebrations in Ottawa would be full of protestors.
The head of SCOC and the GG are to blame for this.
Good for them standing up for what they believe in. This just highlights how cheap these things really are anyways. Kim Campbell, Mulroney, Chretien.. It looks like everyone with any money of power gets one eventually anyways.
It's just depressing that the people who truly do deserve medals get the same one that was soiled by all these hacks.

Agreed they have been handing these out like condoms at a grade school.
