Drive for Justice 21: Behind the Curtain
Host Ron Gray continues taking us through the initial BC Supreme Court trial of Kari Simpson v. Rafe Mair et al in which Simpson accused Mair of defamation – and pulls back the curtain to reveal that the trial judge herself was on the defence side of her husband’s own defamation case. This obvious conflict of interest should have resulted in the judge recusing herself, but listen to what shenanigans happened instead…

Family Freedom Fighters: Who Are the Real Bullies?
Ron Gray takes a step back to look at the bigger picture of bullying. Why does it exist at all? Why does it exist in our culture? And why have we allowed bullies to take our world from us and shape it in their own image? Find out who the real bullies are, and how we allow them to get away with their bad behaviour.
Kari Simpson and Ron Gray speak with Helen Ward, President of Kids First Parent Association of Canada, about the assertion by anti-parent activists that government institutions would actually raise your children better than you do. The theory – already debunked by countless studies – is that peers and autocrats have a better influence on a child's upbringing than good old fashioned parental care and guidance. The real shocker: Such theories are being promoted by teachers and their unions!

Drive for Justice 20: The Trial Begins
Ron Gray takes us into the original Supreme Court of British Columbia trial in which Kari Simpson‘s lawsuit against shock jock Rafe Mair and his radio station was heard by Justice Mary Marvyn Koenigsberg who – unbeknownst to Simpson at the time – was embroiled in her own anti-defamation lawsuit. You’ll hear the arguments made in defence of Rafe Mair’s outlandish lies and slanders against a fierce defender of family rights, and hear why “Justice” Koenigsberg might be inclined to tip the scales of justice.

The Mark Hasiuk Show: The BC Housing Scandals
Mark Hasiuk recently broke the story of widespread abuse of Purchasing Cards – company debit cards – issued to hundreds of BC Housing employees and used to run up unchecked expenses with taxpayer money. This scandal is right on the heels of Mark’s exposé of another British Columbia housing scandal in which tens of millions of taxpayer dollars were discovered being funnelled through the BC Housing Management Commission directly to the CEO’s wife’s personal housing program Atira, a program that unapologetically runs de facto brothels in Vancouver’s east side. How is BC Housing Minister Rich Coleman defending these obvious and egregious abuses and conflicts of interest? During his re-election bid, not much, of course.

Family Freedom Fighters: Can a T-Shirt Change the World?
Ron Gray reviews the 2010 banning of a T-shirt designed by convicted Canadian felons to demonstrate their opinion that Canada is in political and social distress – a ban ostensibly based solely on the fact that an upside-down maple leaf is depicted on the T-shirt. Might the resulting class action lawsuit against the Attorney General of Canada actually lead to a revision of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms? And would that be such a bad thing?
Ron Gray and Kari Simpson speak to Helen Ward, President of Kids First Parents Association of Canada. Why do parents have to fight so hard in the courts to retain their authority over their childrens’ education? Do special interest groups, misguided political correctness, an out-of-control anti-parent court system, and not enough parents standing up for their rights spell doom for parental rights? Helen Ward offers an online petition at TheParentsVoice.org that helps parents fight back.
Also, Ron and Kari have updates concerning the Vancouver Police Department, the Vancouver School Board, and ill-conceived Gender Switch Days in public schools.

Your Calls, Your Thoughts,
Your Opinions, Your Outrage is welcome!
May 19, 2011 (RKRNews) — Did you hear the rumble? With a subterranean roar, RoadKill Radio set off a Parents’ Revolution Tuesday night.
With guests Helen Ward of Kids First (in the studio) and Joanne McGarry, executive director of the Catholic Civil Rights League (on the telephone from Toronto), Kari Simpson and Terry O’Neill pasted the agenda to erode parental/children’s rights to the wall, using clear, simple logic and facts to overcome lies and propaganda.
Early in the broadcast, Helen Ward told us, ”Putting children in daycare guarantees that they’ll have a higher rate of illness. All the studies of daycare in Quebec show that the quality is mediocre in 73 percent of the cases!”
RKR co-host Kari Simpson cited arrogance within the judiciary: in the Surrey book case, the judge said, in effect: “To heck with the kids, to heck with the parents; the kids have to have this information” – although no research says they need it.
Terry O’Neill added, “We discover striking evidence that children are worse off (in day-care) in the number of dimensions…” He then cited research showing that shows child-care actually hurts kids and parents.
Helen Ward pointed out that parents decide what’s best for their family situation.
Kari Simpson lamented decades of propaganda and marketing by the day-care industry. “We need a bit of a parents’ revolution,” she said.
Joanne McGarry added: “Yeah. We need to reclaim our own turf.”
Helen Ward noted: “In BC they brought in all-day kindergarten; it never was an election promise. It was never mentioned.”
“What’s driving this?” asked Terry O’Neill.
“The OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) produced a state-of-the-art ‘blueprint document’ about daycare: It said ‘we’re in transition from the ideology of the family to a new order of shared responsibility between the state and the parents.’
“This OECD/UNESCO document cites as positive examples of “integrated” daycare systems of Cambodia under Pol Pot, China, the USSR, Vietnam and Brazil under military dictatorship.”
Kari Simpson then quoted from a BC Human Rights Tribunal decision regarding the Abbotsford School District’s refusal to implement the Social Justice curriculum produced under the illegal Corren Agreement:
“The Course involves mature and challenging subject matter,” said the court. “It deals generally with complex issues of social justice, including concepts ranging from hegemony and economic liberalization to speciesism. Sexual orientation and gender identity are among the issues that may be considered within the Course in relation to social justice. The Course involves students examining and challenging their own beliefs, and classroom activities may include discussion and debate of a variety of potentially contentious subjects. The Course also examines issues of conflict between belief systems.”
Who authorized the Ministry of Education to “examine issues of conflict between belief systems? That violates BC’s Schools Act, which mandates “secular” education.
And what the heck is “speciesism”? Wikipedia defines it as the “assigning of different values or rights to beings on the basis of their species membership. The term was created by British psychologist Richard D. Ryder in 1973 to denote a prejudice against non-humans based on physical differences that are given moral value; however, it can also refer to misanthropy -a hatred of all humans because they are human.”
“It (the Social Justice 12 curriculum drafted by homosexual activists Peter and Murray Corren) was designed to attack the beliefs students learned at home,” said Kari. “Who gave the schools the authority to attack the home? This is the hijacking of the family’s role in raising children. It’s time parents said, ‘Enough is enough!’”
“There’s something big here that’s got momentum,” added Terry O’Neill. “How do we stop it?”
Helen Ward noted that one action is already being taken by parents “who are leaving the public school system in droves.”
Joanne McGarry said there are two other steps by which parents can reverse the trend: “Participate in the media as much as possible; Try to get involved in the court cases.”
RoadKill Radio already provides a vehicle for parents to act on the second and third of those three revolutionary steps, and supplies helpful information about the first. Stay tuned for more action plans for the Parents’ Revolution from RKR!

NB – RoadKill Radio has still not heard from Bill Good, who was challenged May 11 to debate Kari Simpson on the Burnaby School Board’s new pro-‘gay’ Policy 5.45. Both e-mail and snail-mail were sent, so we expect to hear from Mr. Good any moment now. Stay tuned for further news!
RKR Co-host Kari Simpson read from a classroom exercise prepared in July, 2000 by GALE-BC (Gay And Lesbian Educators of BC – now re-named Pride Education Network). Among the identities to be assumed by the teen-aged students for role-playing in the classroom were:
• 18-year-old white single heterosexual female secretary who is HIV-positive. (It would be extremely rare for a heterosexual female of that age to be HIV-positive. ~ ed.)
• White male bisexual artist (not famous yet) with a male partner. He also has a criminal record for possession of illicit drugs in the past. Currently he is a practicing Christian. (How could a “practicing Christian” be bisexual and a drug user or dealer? ~ ed)
• Asian-Canadian female nurse who is bisexual and in a committed relationship with a woman. They are raising her partner’s four Caucasian children.
• Stay-at-home heterosexual mother of three children with “traditional values”, whose husband has a six-figure income.
• First Nations bisexual female factory worker in a relationship with a white man. She practices traditional Native spirituality.
• Male-to-female transgendered truck driver in a relationship with a woman.
• 16-year-old high school student who is lesbian and is deaf. She uses sign language to communicate, and is a practicing Christian. (Again: how could a “practicing Christian” be a lesbian? ~ ed)
• 20-year-old female Caucasian sex-trade worker who is heterosexual and in a polygamous relationship with a pimp. She is addicted to heroin.
• Separated single gay white male who has custody of his 10-year-old daughter, and who works as an Elementary school teacher.
• White heterosexual Christian male who is the CEO of a multinational corporation. He is married with three children.
• 35-year-old white heterosexual female social worker who is married to a Jamaican-Canadian man. They have two children. She is a practicing Wiccan (witch ~ ed).
• Black heterosexual female lawyer who is the only woman and the only person of colour working in a prominent firm.
• White single lesbian stay-at-home mother of two small children, living on welfare.
• White 60-year-old lesbian who is a general medical practitioner and suffers from epilepsy.
• 50-year-old divorced female teacher who has raised her children, and hasn’t worked for the last 15 years. Her husband has left, and he hid their assets.
• Catholic Italian mother of three children who is a recent immigrant to Canada and does not speak English. She is married and works in an Italian bakery.
• Gay Chinese-Canadian man who is raising a disabled child with his partner.
• Indo-Canadian male psychiatrist who is heterosexual and a practicing Sikh.
• 14-year-old Japanese-Canadian lesbian Buddhist high school student.
• 17-year-old white heterosexual student, who is a sports jock and very popular in the school.
• 25-year-old Black disabled female university student (uses a wheel chair) and is a practicing Anglican.
• Closeted gay male Jewish lawyer who is married with two children. He lives with his wife but has sex with his secret male lover of several years.
• 15-year-old gay male Hispanic high school student who is a practicing Catholic. (Again: a “practicing Catholic” who is ‘gay’? The author of these exercises understands very little of Christian principles. ~ ed)
Sometimes it is fun to add cards with famous participants. Examples:
• k d lang, famous Canadian singer; lesbian, vegetarian, partnered, white.
• Svend Robinson, famous Canadian politician, white gay male, partnered, Ukrainian.
• David Suzuki, environmental activist, heterosexual, married, Japanese-Canadian.
(Note that two of the three “famous Canadians” are homosexual: 66% of the examples recommended are from a proclivity that represents less than 2% of the population. Hmmm! ~ ed)
Kids First Parent Association of Canada
Media release: Police called to prevent leaflet at public forum held on public property!!
February 23, 2011 (Burnaby)—On February 22, 2011 the West Vancouver Police were called to prohibit the distribution of an information leaflet at a public forum, held at a municipal theatre.
The West Vancouver School District and the West Vancouver Memorial Library held a “community forum on Early Learning” featuring Dr Fraser Mustard, a well-known advocate of universal daycare and all-day kindergarten. Helen Ward, President of Kids First Parent Association of Canada handed out a leaflet in opposition to Dr. Mustard’s policy message in the venue’s foyer.
The leaflet consisted of quotations from Dr Mustard, his colleagues, and economists, with sources. It provided Kids First contact information.
A woman who said “this is our event” demanded that Ward leave the premises saying it was a private space and that distributing information without permission was illegal. She loudly warned patrons that Ward was “handing out propaganda” and that they should not take the leaflet. She took the leaflet out of the hands of several patrons.
Ward declined to leave stating that it was a public space. The woman (who refused to identify herself except as Cathy) brought in the theatre manager and a man named Andrew. At this point Ward agreed to stand outside, but was told she must stand on the sidewalk. Andrew phoned the police saying they were “worried” and that Ward had “a partner inside.” Constable Harding of the West Vancouver Police said that the public theatre attached to the public high school was private property owned by the School District and advised Ward to stand on the sidewalk, which she did.
“This reaction to a mild mannered democratic protest shows signs of paranoia. The event promoted a political agenda using tax payers’ dollars. The groups running the event accept millions of public dollars and used space paid for by the public, and then seek to exclude public voices,” says Ward. She goes on: “It is reprehensible to deny free citizens the right of protest—a simple pamphlet, distributed quietly—at a public event, held on public property, using Canadians’ tax dollars.”

Kindergarten students in BC are being used to “data-mine” information about them and their families—with or without parents’ consent.
The Human Early Learning Partnership at the University of BC (H.E.L.P.) recently sent a letter to parents of kindergarten students—now that all-day kindergarten has been imposed on BC families—“informing” them that unless the parents go out of their way to meet with their child’s teacher, consent to the data-mining operation is “assumed”.
Helen Ward of Kids First Canada brought a copy of the H.E.L.P. letter to RoadKill Radio’s studio Feb. 1. The letter says medical health and education records are linked in the project, which gathers personal, private data.
The survey seeks information about kindergartners’ physical health and well-being, social knowledge and competence, emotional health and maturity, language and cognitive development, and general knowledge and communication skills. All the information is linked through a “Personal Education Number” assigned to each child; the child’s name is not on the form—but their P.E.N.s and postal codes are, which make it easy to identify each child—and family.
Kindergarten teachers are asked to give subjective answers about each student to eight pages of questions.
“This isn’t real research,” said Helen Ward, pointing out that there are questions teachers cannot answer without asking parents—including “problems at home.” The teachers will have to guess. And some of the questions—like “are there troubles at home?”—are also intrusive.
