Ankle continues to heal nicely. Seeing physiotherapist once a week and getting exercises to strengthen ankle area...using a 'walking cast'... I hope by end of month to be ready to stop using it.. but only time will tell.
The Ann Coulter affair..true it looks bad when the controversy prevented her organizers from allowing her speaking engagement to proceed. In a free democracy it is always better to hear what 'crazy' folks have to say even if one disagrees with them.... but in our democracy we do have laws prohibiting incitement against identifiable groups.
The official from the University of Ottawa who sent the cautionary note to Ms. Coulter was probably trying to help the situation but may have inadvertently heightened the controversy.
Also if media reports are correct the meeting organizers tried to 'stack' meeting with her supporters.
Anyways she speaks in Calgary tonite and presumably anything interesting that is said will be widely reported. She does say things that are uncomfortable and unpleasant to hear. Her alleged joke about ways for Muslims to travel was uncalled for and worthy of public criticism. Her post 911 comments were very objectionable.
Otherwise keeping busy with my tax preparation business...will be posting fewere times until end of April.
