I watched for a while, untill the women started going in predictable directions about complaining about cuts to this organisation, and that organisation.

I mean, why do we need sooo many organisations to talk around in circles.

And so I turned it off because I was turned off.

Hey Frances… given that both moderators were male so the ratio of male to female on stage had the women outnumbered two to one … it’s pathetic that when Nash (not Harrison) mentioned cuts to the Status of Women Canada (a federal government ministry) you felt like silencing all debate entirely….

Just pathetic… and totally wrong.
