Well I’m in BC and I better check the walls on our school - it is a private Christian school, but that doesn’t mean they might have drunk the Kool-Aid as well.

But if the Canadians don’t want to go that route—I think the chemical cause some unfortunate problems with the liver—they can always do like Al Jolson or Hillary Clinton sus.
