SOME CANADIAN

Posted on 12/01/2015 | About Canada

Well he did it and we let him and is Canada any better for it’s latest citizen? So what now? Will Dror Bar-Natan who was so repulsed by swearing allegiance to the Queen that he had to recant it immediately after, be equally repulsed handling Canada’s currency or sticking a stamp on his correspondence? What will he do next?  

Do we care?  Or is his 15 minute Warholian or Kadashian celebrity moment over.   In fact we should care, because the citizenship oath should mean something.  To rescind all or part of it immediately after you swear to it makes a mockery of the process and should never be allowed to happen - in this instance or any other.
