Great education system you got there, eh? So, you don't teach
math and english, that must
mean all the time is spent in jingoistic
indoctrination.(questioning inflection)
==========

there must be a deficiency somewhere because your post is
completely
incomprehensible to me... the problem lies either at your end
or mine.
perhaps some americans could translate for me.
=====================
Not too surprising for you. You mentioned canada, and
definitions. I guess you don't follow the news from canada, eh?
According to the ontario education minister, 'strike' is a
5-letter word. Just a little defitent in math and'or english.
Given all that, I'm not surprised that you would have trouble
with definitions.

Rick:

I live on left coast. i don't follow every detail of what goes on in
places like ontario. whatever the education minister in ontario says is
likely of little import to me.

it's almost a full-time job having disdain for the politicians who
actually do influence my life.

btw, what does "Just a little defitent in math...." mean? have you guys
come up with yet more ways to spells words differently? is that perhaps
an american spelling of "deficient"?

given what follows, that figures:

OECD/PISA Study:
Reading Literacy

1. Finland
2. Canada

14. France
15. United States

Uhh, that was a politician. They are well known to be mentally
_deficient_. Google "George W. Bush" for more examples.

Fortunately W isn't directly in charge of the education of a
million kids, mr Kennedy is.

Unfortunately, "W" is in charge of the most powerful nation.

rick, you display an interesting bit of (il)logic. By your reckoning,
then, a minister of education should be more intelligent than the
leader of the world's leading economy and military.

If you're representative of American voters, I'm beginning to see why
Americans voted as they did.

=============================
No, didn't say that at all. That's your bit of illogical
projection. But, an education minister should be able to at
least count up to 10 without any problems. Fortunately, W is
running the US instead of a minor backwoods education system.

=====================
Really? Your lack of logic says you have nothing to say about
it. maybe US voters believe more in their country and themselves
than those like you that depend only on what the government will
give you.

Just in case you're also too stupid for sarcasm, my daughter is
in an Ontario school.
