Its understandable and pardonable for some members to see negativity in a positive feature article on my life in Canadas conservative The Financial Post magazine half my lifetime ago. Children do not choose their names nor are responsible for activities of their parents before they are born.

My father was a Communist teenager during the Great Depression when anyone not looking for a better way wasnt thinking at all. He broke with the party long before the war because of its virulent anti-semitism, was accepted as a private pilot in the Air Reserve in 1939 and served Canada honourably and with distinction.

For comparative adherence to communism and Christianity, consider the story was written during the hottest of the Cold War. It also described our university roles: Dads raising money from the wealthy and mine bashing business baddies, as Director of Development and Director of The Peoples School, a weekly radio and TV program on the Atlantic networks.

Thanks all for the kind words.
