This is the Ben Mulrooney Show. Welcome back to the Ben Mulrooney Show. Welcome back to the Ben Mulroney Show. Thank you so much for being here. Imagine you are a student at the end of a long journey through high school and you are at the commencement ceremony and you just you're looking forward to taking those next steps. You want to throw your cap and move on to whatever the next chapter in life has for you.

But that's not going to happen until you have to sit through the valedictorian speech. And in the case of a school in Ottawa, the valedictorian, despite being told park your politics at the door, decided that she had to speak out on behalf of as she sees it the the atrocities committed by Israel against the people of Palestine and the school reacted by telling her you know what maybe don't come to school on Monday they had they asked her to take a timeout and and and obviously there are people lining up on either side of the fence to either defend the school's position or to come to the defense of this student. I I'm of the opinion that if you are a valedictorian, you're supposed to just and you got your, you got your diploma from a school if the school tells you park your politics, you park your politics.

And if you don't, well, that's the, we're living in a world where you F around and you find out. Well, not necessarily, not necessarily in a place like Canada, where it, you can F around and very, very rarely do people find out. The social justice tourists that went to Egypt in the hopes of stopping the blockade of Gaza, they found out. They went there for performative reasons and they found out that they were not welcome.

They can get away with that here in Canada, but not so much there. But I want to hear from you at 416-870-6400 or 1-888-225. Talk, what do you think about, you know, the politicization of our of our young student body? What do you think that up? What do you think that means for the future? And we're living in the future right now. I mean, we can see it on the streets in Montreal just yesterday on Father's Day. These a pro Palestinian protest, which now, by the way, has morphed into pro-Iranian regime protests because the common enemy is Israel, right? The common enemy is the Jew. There was music playing

at this protest with the words, Hit, Hit Tel Aviv. This is what we are normalizing, which is then turning into the background noise for our kids, which leads to a valedictorian with high grades, in my opinion, having been having accepted a propagandist worldview that demonizes Israel. That if the smartest kid in the room doesn't get it, God help people like me who were just who were the sheep, who were just ingesting the information as best we could. I don't know how you feel, but I think, I'd love to hear what you have to say. Sorry, welcome to the show. Thank you for calling in. Hello.

Hello. Hi. So my thoughts on this are, I mean, I agree with you. I think that first and foremost, politics aside, the speeches that we're hearing at commencement ceremonies and at all protests, they're not political, they're hateful. They're anti-Semitic and I don't care what anybody says. If you want to call it anti-Zionist, well then you're an anti-Semite. Yes you are. And my family's from Israel. And one of my closest friends is an Iranian woman who immigrated to Canada in the 90s. And she's disgusted at what she's seeing. And she's also, she feels like she's in the Twilight Zone. What she is witnessing in Canada is exactly the same thing that she witnessed in Iran before she fled. Yeah.

Yeah, and sorry, that's the thing that I'm concerned about is that we've spent so much time focusing on the here and now that I don't know that I've personally given enough thought to, you know, the next generation of leaders is making its way through our school system right now. And if the smartest kid in the school is spouting off this lunacy, I don't know how much hope there is for the kids there that are you know dragging around C-plus averages. Well I'll tell you what my family thinks and again we're Jewish my family lives in the heart of Toronto at Avenue and

Wilson at Bathurst and Wilson all of the kids in my family go to Jewish school to prevent the hate and the anti-Semitism, and also to continue on with our, with, you know, with our roots and where we came from. I'm a, I'm a descendant of Holocaust survivors. All of my grandparents survived the Holocaust. And again, what we're seeing is terrifying. We are terrified. Sorry, I'm going to leave it there with you, but I want to thank you for calling and for lending your voice to this conversation. And as I've said many times before, I'm so sorry that, you know, city builders and people who just want to live their lives in the city of Toronto have been subjected to what they have been. But you know when I hear like these kids the great thing about about kids

is they're optimistic and bullish about the future and they're going to they're going to own that future right they're going to be the leaders of that future and this young woman who's a valedictorian in Ottawa you know as she is uh as she's spouting off this nonsense like nobody's's taking her aside and saying, you know what, what are the issues that matter to you? LGBTQ rights, women's rights, you're concerned about the children of Gaza? Okay, so you want a free Palestine? Free Palestine from Hamas.

That's the quickest way to getting everything you want. But nobody had that conversation in the schools. And I think that's why we are where we are. Scott, welcome to the show. Hey, thank you. Thanks for taking up this topic. I mean, it's kind of pathetic because like you said, the one sidedness, that's what they're being taught in these schools are being politicized. There are schools are no longer teaching people to think for themselves. Yeah, they're being politically, and they're being emotionally and just manipulated. And they're being they're having a spoon fed down their throats. Yeah, not being taught to think

critically at all. They're not even being taught the basic things they should be. Just just for example, I mean, if if any kid leaves school, believing that the Jewish people are not indigenous to Israel, then the school has failed. And if they come out of there thinking that the Jewish people of Israel are colonizers, then our kids have been lied to and brainwashed in school. And that is, and we're paying for that with our taxes. I got a real problem with that. Well, you know, I think too is that it's being pushed all over the place. It's being pushed by our media. It's being pushed by like the school board,

like everything it's it's like an entire movement that's taken over. Yeah. Yeah. And it's pervasive throughout our whole society. It seems. Oh no, we listen with it. The amount of damage that we've allowed to happen. Like the calls coming from inside the house. These are self inflicted wounds, we could have done something about them a long time ago. It's all about who we choose to come into our country, we have to be more selective.

Well, it's also about it's also about how we view ourselves. I mean, if we are true, if you don't if you don't view Canadian society is having values worthy of supporting and celebrating, then who cares who you let it? Because it doesn't matter. Like we are just a warehouse for people to come in and populate with their own ideas, as opposed to how I think we should be building the country. These are the things we stand for. This is what makes Canada special.

Get on board with that plan and bring whatever else you want into the conversation. But if you don't support these four or five, six, ten things, there's really you can't make an argument for coming here. Thank you for the for joining us. I really appreciate that. Who do we have next? I think we've got a name. How are you? Hello. Ben, how are you? Thank'm well, thank you. Thanks for calling in. So this issue aside, because I'm going to try to make this from a neutral perspective, I think you've got to let the kids kind of… if we're making them the valedictorian, we're giving them recognition, these are bright kids or they're supposed to be bright kids, I think you deal with the issue after the fact. Rather than try to preemptively make them into

automatons and give them a talking point or say, you't talk about this, you can't talk about this, you can't talk about this, they're going to deviate. And sometimes we get intelligent responses and results. I think we're going to have this discussion because it's a specific point that was made, which was in support of the Palestinians and in so doing obviously you support the Palestinians that means you're critical of the state of Israel, but I graduated in the 90s and Every other valedictorian speech in those days was about South Africa, right and that's political. So

Are we gonna pick and choose our political causes that we allow or are we going to deal with them after the fact and truly vet them for how hateful they may or may not have been? I haven't seen this whole speech. I heard snippets of it, but I don't know. I've got to find a whole... Well, yeah, and look, like Naim, what I would say is if they say park your politics, had the valedictorian come out and started spouting off about being pro-Israel, I would say the school has the right to give them a time out as well.

If the school wanted them to be apolitical in their speech, you gotta be apolitical, you gotta play by their rules. It's not like they don't have social media. It's not like they don't have platforms of their own where they can say what they want. This was a position granted to them by the school, and you gotta play by the school's rules. And anyway, we've got, I do thank you, Naim, for that. I wanna thank everybody for calling in.

We're gonna take a quick break, but when we come back, oh boy, did a Waterloo school board consider banning the word family? Of course they did. That's coming up on the Ben Mulroney Show. Welcome to the Ben Mulroney Show on this Monday, June 16, 2025. Thank you so much for kicking off the week with us. It's going to be a big one and we're going to get to all the news that unfolded over

the weekend in just a little bit. But before, you know, before we settle into the big headlines, let's let's back into the Monday and review Father's Day. I hope every father out there had a great Father's Day, whatever that means for you. Some people, they enjoy the pomp and the circumstance, the pageantry of every single thing. I've got people in my life who will not let a single birthday go by without making it a week- long event.

And by the way, not for nothing, but people who celebrate their birth week or their birth month or their half birthdays, they should be in jail. They're awful people and they're just making life far too complicated. That's a hot take I can see. But anyway, I'm not one of those people who needs a whole lot when it comes to Father's Day. And you know, that's what I got. I got, you know, I got the gift of being left alone.

It was wonderful. My phone didn't ring. My kids didn't ask me for anything. I wasn't asked to run an errand, to do anything that would take me off of my plan to do nothing. And I did nothing very well. I mean, my whole day was filled with doing nothing. Excuse me, it was fantastic.

I turned my brain off. I spent some time with the kids. When I want to get up and cook, I cooked. And when I want to take them to the movies, I took them to the movies and it fit into my schedule. They didn't ask me to go earlier. They didn't ask me to go later. They didn't ask me for anything.

It was fantastic. By the way, the live action remake of How to Train Your Dragon, very good family fun. Very, very good. And it clocks in at 90 minutes. So, unlike, say, the MCU movies that come in about three and a half hours these days, 90 minutes of family fun, and then you're back on the couch doing nothing. So it was a wonderful Father's Day. I celebrated exactly the way I wanted and I hope you did too. So we asked ChatGPT to make a list of the overall popularity, cultural participation and national visibility of all the holidays on the calendar. And according to chat GPT, based on all of those things, where is it? Father's Day doesn't even come into the

top 10. It lands at number 11. What's ahead of it? Halloween, for example. Halloween is bigger and I think it's because it centers around the kids. Look, if certain people are to be believed, then people who look like me are at the top of an unearned food chain. And while I'm sure that's true for certain things, it certainly is not true when it comes to celebrating Fathers on Father's Day, but that's okay. Like I said, I don't care. The list, by

the way, in case you care, Christmas Day, Canada Day, I love Canada Day, but I celebrate by eating ribs, New Year's Day, Thanksgiving, it's nice to see, Valentine's Day, I think, I think Valentine's Day would be higher than Canada Day. Mother's Day, which I would think would be ahead of Valentine's Day would be higher than Canada Day. Mother's Day, which I would think would be ahead of Valentine's Day. Halloween, Good Friday. I think it's just because we take that day off, and everybody loves it, whether you're a Christian or not.

Remembrance Day, well, that's nice to see that. That's in the 10. Easter Sunday, Father's Day, followed by Victoria Day, Family Day, Civic Holiday. When it's named generically like that, there's no way it can be important. And Sunday, Father's Day followed by Victoria Day, Family Day, Civic Holiday. You know, when it's named generically like that, there's no way it can be important. And Boxing Day.

And yeah, so I think that that is, it's a snapshot of where we are, fathers out there. Let's just take the win that we even made the list. So there's a lot of news that we are going to delve into today. Obviously, a lot of eyes are on the world leaders that are congregating in Cananaskis, Alberta for the G7 summit. So this is really, this is Mark Carney's introduction to international diplomacy on a very meaningful level hosting the G7 summit.

And but it's very interesting to me because in all of my time, either following the G7 summits, or attending them as I did as a family member, my dad was, we would travel every summer, and almost every summer go to a G7 summit, because we did not travel with my parents during the school year. They wanted us focused on our studies and one of the coolest trips We would travel every summer and almost every summer go to a G7 summit, because we did not travel with my parents during the school year. They wanted us focused on our studies and one of the coolest trips that we could possibly go on as a family would be to wherever the G7 summit was.

I don't remember a G7 summit having this many guest stars. All right, so you got your seven permanent members. This year, in attendance as well, you've got the Prime Minister of Australia, the Prime Minister of Ukraine, the President of Ukraine, the President of South Africa. Who else do we have? The President, oh, and the Prime Minister of India. Like, that's a lot of extra people. And I think that was Mark Carney trying

to take advantage of this immense event that's taking place on Canadian soil and bring together people that he's got files he has to deal with and try to get them all done at once. But that being said, there is a very real chance that what is happening in the Middle East since last week, when Israel launched what they said was a preemptive strike on Iran to make sure that they could not and would not obtain a nuclear weapon, that has a, that runs the risk of derailing and monopolizing a lot of the conversations that are supposed to take place over this summit. So it's going to be very interesting to see how they're able to stay on task, how they're

able to look as if this wider conflict that now exists in the Middle East spills over into say the supply chain, which we've seen many times before, just because a war takes place in the Middle East doesn't mean it's not going to affect the supply chains of the Far East, for example. And so this has broader implications for a lot of the conversations that will be taking place this weekend or this week in Cananascus. I'm very curious, as I've said many times before, I hope that Mark Carney is successful in everything he does. Just because I didn't vote for the guy doesn't mean I don't wish him well, because to wish him well is to wish the Canadian economy well and to wish sort of the Canadian global

reputation well. But there are a lot of forces at play that could be lining up against him having the successful summit that he's hoping for, because this is the lay of the land internationally upon the beginning of this summit is not the lay of the land from two weeks ago. And who knows what's going to happen today, the next day, day after that. It'll be very interesting. But we've got a lot to get to, including should students be disciplined for expressing their political views when they give a speech at graduation that's coming up next on the Ben Mulroney show. You're listening to the Ben Mulroney show. Welcome back to the Ben Mulroney show.

Alright, I've said it many times before, that the pendulum away from, you know, woke ideology, it's happening almost everywhere. But I said, if there's going to be a last stand for it, it will be in Canada. And this next story is a prime example of that. And of course, it's in one of the Ontario school boards, this time coming from Waterloo. So it's a big story that apparently during in 2023, during sort of a professional improvement day or whatever it's called, the teachers, there was some slides on, you know, an education. What is it? Let me just get the words right.

It was during the chair of the regional school board, it was, I'm sorry, you know what? It doesn't even matter. The fact is, this was a professional improvement day for teachers and some screenshots were shared and the title of these screenshots what is it? Dismantling whiteness words matter and the first word on this on this screenshot words the word family in quotations it identified as harmful but it is identified as harmful by our racialized students.

The word family is harmful. So words matter. And you're saying the word family is harmful. Let that idiocy sink in. And then further to that, this is a school board entrusted with educating the next generation. Family implies values, that it values positions of male authority and hierarchy.

False. It implies a nuclear family structure, not the same for everyone. That's true. Well, no, family is not the same. The word family doesn't imply that. Niceness. It asks for obedience.

No room to question criticism, for questions or criticism. An expectation to prioritize family's needs and wants, sacrificing personal boundaries. This is all nonsense. This is all nonsense. And look, I've said many times before, if we're looking to solve problems, I'm not the problem. People who look like me are not the problem. There are problems. But the color of my skin does not

make me a barrier to making the world a better place. I resent the implication and this word, dismantling whiteness. First of all, that's not a thing to dismantle. whiteness. First of all, that's not a thing to dismantle. And so you've already shown yourself idiotic in that respect. But to assume that I am a person who looks like me is a stumbling block to a better world is insulting to the highest degree. And I want to hear from you at 416-870-6400-1888225. Talk, it's yet another example of a school board in a province where our test scores have been going down, focusing on pet projects, ideology over fact, feelings over facts, and making up problems

where they do not exist. You are taking issue with the word family and suggesting it's racist because and making up that it's they have identified that's harmful to your racialized students. What you're saying is you're implying from that statement that family matters less to certain groups than it does to white people. And that family is only strong in the white community. None of that is true. None of it is true. You're making things up. You're creating work that is not, and you are not staying in your lane. Mike, welcome to the show.

Thank you for calling the Ben Mulroney Show. Hey Ben, how are you? I'm well. Yeah, I think the school boards have been taken over by the extreme left to the point where they're indoctrinating students into this extreme left ideology. It's ridiculous. And like I said, you know, if you've done everything that you were hired to do, which

is make sure that the kids are supported and the teachers are supported and they are going through your system and coming out the best versions of themselves, I'd say, okay, put this on the docket as to something you might want to look into next year. But you haven't done that yet. You got one job, and you're not doing that one job. Now, to be fair, Mike, the school board did come out, and they said that this was taken out of context. With all due respect, these slides

are the context for your larger conversation. This is the context. The context is dismantling whiteness and words matter. And And free card is it was taken out of course, of course, it's true. But the fact, yeah, the fact that everybody knows in this day and age, family looks different with every different. It's no longer the matriarch or

the patriarch or the, you know, don't speak, don't question. That's gone. That version of family, they've been gone for 20 years. And the school board doesn't seem to think so. Actually, Mike, thank you for bringing that up because that's been a, there's certain people on the right in the United States that were saying something for a while and and and it's it's it has dawned on me recently that they were absolutely right that prior to George Floyd's murder we had been living in what most polls would have said was the fairest most racially harmonious most prosperous for as many groups as possible not perfect but most fairest society that we had built up until that point where the relations between cultures in places like North America had

never been as high. And it was the duty of the militant left to create divisions that did not exist, to create problems that did not exist, and all of a sudden once they grabbed a toehold you saw poll after poll a this this belief that America was was a racist country and it needed to be torn down because whiteness permeated everything. The patriarchy permeated everything. So theyarchy permeated everything. So they went from believing one thing on one day to something completely different on another.

That did not, Mike, happen by accident. And they've also turned, they've run the narrative that I'm a pretty center-right person, but they've run the narrative that right is evil. And one thing I find right, everybody I know that's right is willing to have a discussion. They might change their opinion on this. The left, if you do not completely agree with you, you're a bigot, racist, homophobe, whatever, they want to add on to you. Oh yeah, absolutely. Yeah, Mike, hey, thank you

very much for that. And I just, I just, I'm sorry, you don't get to say, oh, it was taken out of context. No, this was by design. And you're trying to teach people, you're trying to normalize intrinsic racism where it does not exist in words that have universal understanding. And our last caller was absolutely right. Like stop lying. We live in a time where by and large most people agree, whether they like it or not, that families take on all shapes and sizes. There's no such thing as a

one-size-fits-all family in Canada. We all know that. There are single mother families, single father families, there are two parents, there are homosexual couples who become parents. All this stuff has redefined what it means. But every culture has families. So the fact that you're taking this on means you are inventing a problem that does not exist. You are creating divisions that do not exist. That's the only way to look at this.

We've got time very, very quickly. Oh, we've got time for, who do we have? creating divisions that do not exist. That's the only way to look at this. We've got time very, very quickly. Yeah, oh, we've got time for, who do we have? Ben, welcome to the show. Good morning. Good morning. This is not the wokeness dying. This is scarier than ever. You have three decades of people who studied

and were indoctrinated in university in post-modernist studies, Marxist philosophies. And now they are the people in power. They are the people studying policies. They're all the unemployable that get government jobs. I'm sorry, that's what they are. But they all hold the positions and they set the policies for this.

Well, thank you. You know what? Very good point. Thank you very much. And we've got time for one last one. Frank, welcome to the Ben Mulroney Show. Good morning, Ben. There's always a positive connection, connotation with family. Unity, connectedness, and love. Secondly, we had the Dalton McGinty liberal government years ago declaring Family Day in Ontario.

You know, this is a statement untethered to fact or reality. And the fact that it was even being discussed, the genesis of it came from a school board. Like as far as I'm concerned, take that thing down to the studs and start again, because you have failed at your mission, you have lost the plot, you don't know why you're here. You don't know what your job is. And I don't even care about the rest of your work.

If this came from people operating in your system, your system is broken. Anyway, thank you, everybody, for giving us a call. After the break, we're going to talk about another problem. A grown man dressed as an Asian schoolgirl is driving the bus in Woodbridge. We're going to talk about why parents are up in arms on the Ben Willery Show.

on the Ben Mulroney Show. You're listening to the Ben Mulroney Show. All right. Well, it seems like almost every day we have a conversation about something happening at a school board in Ontario, worthy of discussion. And when this popped up on my social media feed, when the image popped up on my social media, he's like, Oh, I'm going to be talking about this. There's no way this is not going to be a topic of conversation. So in Simcoe County, at St St. Michael the Archangel Elementary School, and

yes, it's a Catholic school, there is one of the people tasked with shuttling kids from school to their homes on a school bus was seen dressed, grown man dressed as an Asian school girl. There's no other way to describe it. He's wearing a little tutu and he's, yeah. And he calls his bus the Lolita bus. And when he was caught on social media, parents were outraged and they were asking him, no, he said, he's been doing this forever

He's been doing this for a very long time kids getting on the bus. This is the person who greets them and Who's driving a bus for a Catholic school I'm not outraged by it. I my kids are not in this school if my kids were in this school I as a and I was in the Catholic school board, I might have a problem with this. But you know, remember how I said earlier on that we're living in a time where like effing around and finding out that that doesn't necessarily always happen in Canada? Well, it happens when social media gets involved, and it happens when

when kids are involved, and it happens when parents at Catholic schools get involved. Because were this not to have been captured on social media, this guy who said he's been doing it forever, it would continue. It would have continued. I suspect the next time we have an update on this story, this bus driver may be moved to a different responsibility. But I want to hear from you at 416-870-6400

or 1-888-225-TALK. Is this okay? Is there a scenario where this person who, and let's just assume, let's just assume certain facts are not in evidence. Let's assume that this is a man who identifies as an Asian school girl. Okay. It's 2025. So why not? Let's assume that. is a man who identifies as an Asian schoolgirl. Okay, it's 2025 so why not? Let's assume that. Is this, is there any scenario in which this is okay? Because people, you know, people can wear what they want, people can identify as they want, but when it comes to being in front of kids, does that matter? Because I can promise you in certain circles me's even saying that is Normalizing that somebody who identifies as such and such a person what you're doing Ben is you're normalizing hate against them Just by asking the question. I reject that

Categorically, but some will say it but I'd like to know from you. Is this the left thumbing their nose at? Religion, you know, we have a lot of reverence for certain But I'd like to know from you, is this the left thumbing their nose at religion? You know, we have a lot of reverence for certain certain religions, not so much the Catholics. You can burn down their, you can burn down their churches and nobody is going to come for you. You can make fun of Jesus. Nobody's going to come for you. That doesn't happen with most other religions. So I'd love to hear from you, George. Welcome to the show.

Well, good morning, Ben. You may as well call his bus the Pedophile Express, because that's what this is. This is somebody grooming young minds. And lolita is a word or a term. I don't know the what you call it that community very well, because I'd like to see them wiped off the face of the earth. But in their pedophile community, that that's what that word means. It's disgusting. This is beyond disgusting. If I was in jail, I'd be in jail. Well, look, Alex, again, that's a fact I'm not willing

to put into evidence, because I don't know. I would want some very concrete answers to some very simple questions. And one of them is, why are you calling it the Lolita, whatever? That is, I think that's a very important question that this guy, this person has to answer. I want to be respectful. How long, like when this person went for their job interview

to become a bus driver, how did they present at that time? At what point did they start dressing this way? Did they ever tell whoever hired them? This is this is who I am now. Because I don't know how how that person keeps their job dressing like that. Let's go to who do we have here we got Jan Jan, welcome to the show. Hi. Hi. So I am I can tell you for a fact that that person was fired. Okay. And no, they never they didn't dress like that all the time. Okay. And that that that statement that basically is on

the front of the dash. Yeah, is to say that he or she is is transitioning. So when it was when we found this out, yeah, it was immediately dealt with. It was only that day that anyone saw that person just like that. And the bus company acted quickly. Oh, I see. Okay. Yeah. Oh, so this is a great update to get.

This is a great update. So so you're saying, Jan, that he he or she they put the Lolita Express up there to say I'm I am transitioning from male to female. Yeah, or vice versa, yeah, exactly. And explain that to the parents that were addressing him that morning, or her. I mean, it's an insane and very unfortunate way of telling the world that you're transitioning

because there's an entire generation of people who don't know the book Lolita even though that has nothing to do with transitioning, but the Lolita Express, the name expression that that that was the name for what's his name's plane that took him to Epstein, the pedophile Jeffrey Epstein taking him to his island. So the fact that this guy didn't put that together as he's driving kids around is very unfortunate for that person.

That is, I really thank you for the update. I just don't understand, and keep the calls coming, 416-870-6400 or 1-888-225-TALK. If this person has been fired, wouldn't you have known that you took a job with the catholic school board or driving kids around like how i get that people think they can be whoever they want whenever they want but you weren't even in your uniform you're supposed to drive and wear a uniform and so the fact that you think you can get away with not doing that, let's put everything

else aside. You weren't wearing your uniform. Maybe that's a fireball offense. I don't know. Hey, Peter, welcome to the show. Thanks. Hope my cell connection is good enough. So listen, Ben, I think this is a stunt like the Oakville school teacher with the large

breasts. Right. And the idea might be that he wanted to get paid to not work by pulling this maneuver where they say okay it's inappropriate to allow him to drive the bus but we can't fire him because of ridiculous equal rights rules which this, in my opinion, is not about. Yeah. And it's just a stunt and there's more and more of this going to happen. Interesting. Until reality sets in and I have no problem with,

with you know like the teacher in Oakville now works in the Hamilton School Board, dresses appropriately as a woman and she is within her right to do so but looks professional my understanding well and is teaching and that's fine. Well yeah Peter I need to get to. If this was a stunt, it failed because apparently we got the update that this person has been fired. So that I'm sorry to say your stunt didn't work. Lindsay, we got time for one more very quickly in about 10 seconds. What are you thinking? Hi there.

Yeah, I just wanted to point out that Lolito is a book written in the 1950s about a very old man talking about his obsession with a very young girl and he kidnapped her and sexually abused her. Yeah, no, no, that's it and that's it and the fact that that person put that in the, on a bus is just, it's shameful. Are you ready for a life-changing opportunity?
