My Canadian aunts sister flipped out over a saber arch at my military cousins wedding.

While doing research on a ships crew ran across the daughter of one of the CO’s and she said she had went to the Change of Command Ceremony and the CO(her father) and his relief were wearing their traditional swords.
She claims she must have seen too many Errol Flynn movies as when she saw her father walk to the podium she figured there was going to be a duel or something of that nature.
Difference between her and THESE MODERN idiots, is she was about 8 years old in 1958 when this ‘incident’ took place.
And probably had more common sense at 8 than the school board members and your aunt’s sister.
“Difference between her and THESE MODERN idiots, is she was about 8 years old in 1958 when this incident took place.”
I agree. It’s especially frightening because she’s supposed to be an intelligent doctor. But who knows if that counts for anything in Canada.
