Because it's tied into the constitution and founding of this country.
Dunno why we ran from the Protestant-Catholic school system we had-at least we knew who we were. We had an identity. Canada is a clusterfuck of identities and values. It is incoherent, really.
Again, who the fuck cares about some compromises made nearly 150 years ago? I could care less what they wrote back then.
Do you feel the same about the BNA? Various treaties between whites and native Americans?
You see, unlike you, I respect legislation... actually anything really, solely based on it's merit. Not because it was written a long time ago.
Which British North America Act??? You do know BNA is
plural, as in there are
multiple acts...??? Seeing as what you said before I assume it to be the original... British North America Act 1867.... pretty fucking useless today. Just want to note: there are actually
no BNAs today in Canadian legislation, any that were not repealed or previously renamed were all renamed to 'Canada Act' when Trudeau patriated our constitution.
Treaties between whites and natives have also been pretty useless, we should do much more to help them.
So you think Canada never should have patriated it's constitution, the Statute of Westminister never should have happened... on and on and on... You think we shouldn't do more for the Natives who got the shit end of the stick and live in conditions today rivaling those found in 3rd world nations. Alas, these treaties were written long, long ago, innerrent and infallible... After all, it's the natives faults for their situation right?
Sorry, but 'it was written long ago into the constitution and provincial legislation' is not an argument to support why religious schools should exist.
