Letters to Macleans's re Oct 10th issue

1. Obama in Canada

Letter writer Humby would like to have Obama working in Ottawa. Isn't it enough that
we have just rid ourselves of one very egotistical quasi-American elitist scholar - brought to us by the Liberal party - without bringing another here. "When will they ever learn."

2. Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia's consent to have women vote in the 2015 municipal elections is not good news. It is no news.It is window dressing to hide the misgynous, homophobic, anti-everything but Muslim, ideology that the Saudis are financing around the world. It is like congratualting a drunk for beginning his binging at 8:00 a.m. instead
of 7:00 a.m. It is not real progress.

Ezra Levant

It seems like Ezra Levant's criticism of the Saudi's non-ethical oil has caused them to give women the vote in the municipal elections. It is amazing what a little criticism of Arab customs will do. We need much more of it. Ezra Levant has now done more for the women's movement than all those women's liberation movements have done for the past 100 years. Imagine Ezra being women's best friend. He is better than chocolate. What is the world coming to?
