Wonder if the judge is a Jew?
Does anybody know the origin of the name Marion Cohen?
Its Jewish, but that does not matter does it? Unless you are stereotyping.
Having a jewish name does not mean shes a practicing jew. Being a practicing jew does not mean one is intolerant either.
If anything she is probably left-leaning...to a fault.
Thanx for the info. I did look it up and the name does have Jewish origins.
All what you say is true, but it doesn't rule out that she may be Jewish and intolerant, or bending to the whims of some influential Jewish folk, or perhaps there's some other angle

Don't know if it applies here. The tree was just moved- so the reports say, not obliterated. But I know what you are getting at, so we won't split hairs.

People! Let's just call this time of year what it REALLY is...it's Christmas!!
Unless people really want Eid and Diwali and Hanukah and every other religious festival to be put under one generic term of "Happy Holidays"...
A few days ago was the 26th anniversary of the 'assassination' of a GREAT ( as deemed by several people)English composer.
He had this grandiose vision of a utopian world with 'no religion'.I'll go with that. I know it's too much to ask for.
The song's name is "Imagine".
The composer /singer- John Lennon.

This song was very nice.
I agree with both of you. Imagine the uproar if "diwali" or 'Eid' had to become happy holidays because it was not PC.
it works both ways.

While we are speculating...she could be a sufi saint using the name of 'Cohen' as part of an elaborate coverup.
.May be a Mossad agent. Maybe this is what the 'evil jews' do anyway.
May be its Bin laden.
May be its Lennon(Elvis and him live in toronto) trying to implement the idea behind his song

Cool sense of humour.
Actually I thought John Lennon, Elvis, Hendrix, Joplin, Bonham, Moon, Marley all were living it up in Montreal.
So is Princess Diana I hear.Still the controversy hasn't lost steam. Letters and comments are still being printed in the major mainstream newspapers. I saw 3-4 today in The Toronto Star.
