Awatmath.1331 net.news utzoo!decvax!watmath!jcwinterton Fri Dec 18 21:26:40 1981 More on the rectitude of net.jokes.q Those of us north of the border will have to remember the wierd affirmative action stuff that you south of the border have. Here, in Ontario anyway, we have some rather mild obscenity laws, but quite strong opinions in the body of common law dealing with minority rights as well as an standing bill of rights (passed somewhere around 1967) plus a new set of goodies that will probably be enacted around July 1, 1982 when our 'new' Constitution comes home from Westminister. Also, most of the 'minority' groups in the U.S. are as large as the entire population of Canada, so if it comes to the greatest good for the greatest number ... By the way, I happen to be a World Federalist (that's not a label for any front organization that I am aware of). Anybody else think that the global village is getting to small for the kind of sabre rattling we have been hearing lately?
