Louise Arbour: "Anti-Family Canadian"
Canadian Activist Judge
'Equality' Bench Legislator
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights
Excerpt from: Equality groups welcome confirmation of Louise Arbour as UN High Commissioner for Human Rights:
"In her time as a judge of the Supreme Court of Canada, Justice Arbour has consistently affirmed the right of lesbians, gays and bisexuals to equal treatment, in cases dealing with the discriminatory application of customs laws to lesbian and gay materials, a School Board's refusal to approve for classroom use three books depicting same-sex families and the need for teachers trained at an Evangelical University to maintain a classroom free from discrimination..."
She's Canadian.
That explains it.
Canada seems to be catching up rapidly with France on having more weasels and finks per capita than any other country on the planet.
I think you forgot....Mrs. Santa Claus wannabe!
