....except the parents will have to be careful that in explaining why the mommies, daddies, sons and daughters of some of their friends are dying that they are politically correct and don't insult anyone or they explain how building these terrible monsters pay for the iPods, computers and games many of their friends have and the list goes on and on. Also that those "unfortunate" suffer more from the silence.
SOMEONE TELL US WHY THIS IS A BAD IDEA...
So we know we already used this space a few weeks ago to dust off our anti-Snowbird soapbox. But after our Labour Day weekend was all but drowned out by the CNE's annual display of aerial acrobatics, we figured that, if the city is going to continue to give over our last long weekend of the summer to this celebration of pollution (both of the noise and gaseous varieties), they may as well spin it in a constructive manner. Instead of billing it “The Canadian International Air Show,” call it “Baghdad for a Day,” so that when your kids freak out at the terrifying sound of a roaring F22 Raptor, you can use the opportunity to educate them about those less fortunate in other parts of the world who must endure these horrible noises every day.
