Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

You have to love heckling. Did no-one considering that they are likely offering a critique on an amateurish theatre production that sucked instead of sexual harassment. They weren’t exactly doing a Bill Cosby routine on frosh chicks. That would come later.
“Under our new Sexual Misconduct policy, the comments that have been reported qualify as sexual harassment,”
Actually, forcing people to attend this sort of claptrap is sexual harrassment.
Rather than punish the hecklers, I would be more inclined to strengthen the performers who vomited afterwards. I made my daughter cry when I criticized her for coloring outside of the lines; she’s now a pretty damn good artist, and has no problem showing me all her new works.
Clockwork Orange comes to mind.
Would it be too cruel a punishment to make them watch it again?
More like 1984, “mandatory play” is bone chillingly Orwellian, this is Two Minutes of Hate only longer and less frequent.
It could get a lot worse.
Will heterosexuality survive women’s liberation?
It won’t, not unless men get their act together, have their power taken from them and behave themselves. I mean, I would actually put them all in some kind of camp where they can all drive around in quad bikes, or bicycles, or white vans. I would give them a choice of vehicles to drive around with, give them no porn, they wouldn’t be able to fight – we would have wardens, of course! Women who want to see their sons or male loved ones would be able to go and visit, or take them out like a library book, and then bring them back.

They should have stuck with throwing rotten vegetables at the stage. Although, that could conceivably be construed as “produce rape”.
The irony of people being “forced against their will” to watch a play that is against people being “forced against their will” is somewhat delicious.
I am soooo thankful both my daughters chose to jump right into the workforce rather than get f*cked over by a liberal arts college.
They should set them down and make them watch the video of the 6’7″ 260lb ex NFL blocker Daddy practicing a mag-dump with his Saiga 12 shotgun and turning a dozen water melons into a 60 gal. smoothy in less than 10 sec. – tell them he’s the father of one of the girls on campus – you guess which
Hecklers are, by definition, a minority here, or the piece would say she was heckled by the audience IF it was even reported.
Given the political environment today, if you’re the first to stop applauding, you’re a heckler.
Some would ask, “Did not the hecklers pay for admission, and is it possible that they felt that they didn’t get value for their entertainment dollar?”
(combination question, kind of shit I won’t answer)
Who knows? If she was 70 pounds lighter and I was single and 45 years younger, I would date her, sight *unheard.
*might be a bad evening if the food wasn’t great, the movie was mediocre, and she opened her pie hole longer than it took to fill it.
We only have a head shot, but she looks like she has bad **tattoos
-picture at the link is the only shot of her on the net I can find so, HEY!, she isn’t a nerd
…or, you know, tech savvy or she’d be taking selfies out the yin yang-
** don’cha be drooling over the size of yer potential canvas inkers
little known trivia: she ate her first cellphone because her mom dropped it into a bag of Doritos
There is a “clapping in the Politburo” joke in here somewhere and I am struggling to find it.
Maybe when these pretentious wags get over themselves and their “art”, they might want to pay attention to real rapes that are going on.
Yet if the occasion had been a speech by, say, Ann Coulter, and the “hecklers” had not merely heckled but shouted it down, the supposed “liberal arts” college would have looked the other way.

“….if you’re the first to stop applauding, you’re a heckler”
Heh, good one, drums up images of North Korea and their “Dear Leader”.
As others have pointed out, simply forcing students to a sexually orientated show is sexual harassment in it’s own right.
The Hecklers should sue for damages.
the sexual harassment crowd kind of make things up on the fly.
A not-so-subtle move from demanding a form of behaviour (i.e., laws) from students, to demanding a form of thinking. Mandatory attendance of any social-engineering project is a violation of human rights.
