[Buddha-l] Canada cancels non-Christian prison chaplaincies

[Jo]

OK--so CA or Canada has become just like the USA did after Ray-gun--governed
in the imperial style--a mode amplified when GW Bush was in power and which
will return if Romney gets elected. 
I don't understand the Buddhist figures on prison occupation posted by RH.

We had an election. It's called democracy. Canada (which is what I assume
you mean by 'CA', which also stands for 'California') isn't 'that way';
Canada's Prime Minister (or 'PM') is 'that way', and he governs in the
imperial style. This message has no Buddhist content (sorry).

How did CA get that way?

What Canada has is a Conservative government that believes that if the
Anglican Church was good enough for Jesus and is still good enough for the
Queen, it's good enough for Canadian felons. It also has a government that
thinks that environmentalists and First Nations tribal elders are foreign
agitators, while CEOs of British, Dutch and American oil and gas companies
are guarding "the True North strong and free."
