The leftist, radical feminist/gay-lesbian groups have enormous power in Canada. It really is shocking when you examine it. Sounds like this woman belongs to one or more of these groups.
Originally from Canada, I must add that these lesbian feminazi ultra-socialists have so much power because the best and brightest Canadians emmigrate to the U.S. where they can earn a decent living without oppressive taxes and socialist indoctrination. When I was in high school twenty years ago, we were actually shown a film about how socialism was the best form of government and how, as a Canadian, you should be proud of the country's socialist policies becasue they weren't like the oppressive American capitalist system. It was shown in grade 9 and no one even cared it was shown.
If the radical left ever gains power in all levels of government in the U.S., you will have a country just like Canada.
