ollie Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Who wants to organize a field trip to Rideau Hall? Yay for this kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 I heard the GG say on CBC that she didn't hear the kid and if she did she would have not been offended at all, but rather would have welcomed the oppourtunity to answer the question.

MarcO Posted February 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 What's amazing is that it's not even that loaded a question the kid asked! "Is that the woman that spends the money on the Queen when she comes?" ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gentlemonkey Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 I was just about to say exactly that, i cant believe how much attention this is getting! It sounds like a statement a 5 year old would mumble instead of a teenager.. maybe the real story here is out lack of news! or the sh!tty schools in whitby.

paisley Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 whoever kicked the kid and his class out should be fired... holy uptight, some people shouldn't be allowed to deal with the public boo to the school for backing up that crap too thank god the kids dad stood up for him... imagine if his family had've given him sh!t too?

AD Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Geez. The kid didn't get suspended after all, the tour guide made a mistake, settle down everyone. That goes for you too, media. AD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bokonon Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 that sounds like something that would happen at a tour of the whitehouse, (maybe change "queen" to "oil barron of some hot country") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bokonon Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 the kid got an apology directly from adrienne clarkson and was invited to tea! she said she would love the opportunity to answer his question. there's my canada! i know patriotism isn't really all that logical but i can't help myself.

h Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 he was asking if she was the woman who overspends on the queen - it was a loaded question though the words don't sound like it. I liked this part of the article the best "Jeremy says he's learned a lesson, and that is to be polite in someone's house. He added that he's relieved the incident appears over. "I'm happy with the way it turned out and I accept the Governor General's apology, and I apologize for saying what I said in her house. " cuz he was being a bit obnoxious saying that to a friend when she was in earshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaidy Mae Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Wow! What a backhanded apology. I can't believe they "extended an invitation to Patfield to return to Rideau Hall so he can learn how the Governor General spends her budget". Ouch! Poor little bugger. Also, did they needed to mention that the kid is 15 in grade 8 and print that retarded looking picture of him on the internet? This little guy's never going to get laid! :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Doesn't sound backhanded at all to me, sounds like a very nice gesture on Clarkson's part. I'd laugh if she sent a Challenger jet to pick the kid up though, that would be hilarious... AD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
