Well put jm.
The UN has also introduced things like
"The rights of the child"
Based upon what the un suggested in their documents I have read on the subject, Canadian courts are non conformists about those recommendations as well.
Look no further than divorce cases and how skewed and biased our courts are in that department.
Like Kurt. I believe change will come one day as well.
It won't be in my lifetime.
Might take another four generations
Perhaps when Canada and the USA become one country the current agreements will have a chance to be ripped up.
Then, there will be a chance for all to be treated as equals.
