    True. It has always looked to me as a merchant created event - very artificial.

    Well here in the local paper they were recently protesting a barbeque. The election is taking place here on Oct 14 and one of the MPS was having a community barbeque, kids face painting, promoting themselves event. Apparently the date they picked fell on Ramadan and there was a protest it MUST be cancelled. :bugeye:

    The MP went ahead and held it on the date selected. I say GOOD FOR THEM!!
    I guess however they can say goodbye to those votes.

    I am getting sick of having to cater to all these religious groups. If they aren't happy with something, just don't attend. Everyone else shouldn't have to follow in their beliefs. The last time I looked, I thought I lived in Canada but lately I really wonder.
