"What A Lot Of Bollocks"


Federal Minister for Indigenous Relations, Carolyn Bennett, said on August 16 First Nations women will be treated the same as men under the changes to the Indian Act. 

Until now, Indian women lost their status when they married non-Indian men, but men did not if they married non-Indian women. This also means women born before April 17 1985 who lost their status can reclaim it. To quote Ms.Bennett, ''What we are saying now is that there will now be gender equality for all of the Early Peterborough union activists at GE women.'' 

Another quote worthy of mention and thoroughly appropriate is the one used frequently by Inspector Brakenreid on Murdoch Mysteries: ''What a lot of bollocks!''

 As if the new law will make a difference to its beneficiaries as wage slaves. For all this talk of equality, there is only one kind of equality worth striving for - a society where all will stand equal in social relation to the means of life.

Yours for Socialism,
