This is the second of such inâ€" cidents amd could if the inâ€" Jjured school se desired, result RECENT â€" DEFACMENT OF HGMS of the Waterloo Uniâ€" yersiFy College is thought to Be the stupidity of some stuâ€" dents who evidently, while old enough to go to college in actual years, have not maturâ€" ed enough menially to know right from wrong. This type of stupidty might be overlooked if perpetrated by kindergarten puptls When it comes to young peaple in the years of early naturity carrying on childish and exâ€" pensive stunts of this kind, then it is time they were taught that such nonsense will not be tolerated by authoriâ€" WATERLOO COUNCHH S in agreement that there should be a Canadian flag and as most of council are able to make clear cut decisions on their own, possible some action in the direction of a flas of our own may be expected. We had one Englishman tell us after our last article that we wouldn‘t be here as Canaâ€" dians if it were not for the British. Baloney, the American Indians and the French were here long before Wolf tried for the portales of Quebec and they are still here. If the Engâ€" lish hadn‘t taken this wealthy country as a colony, some othâ€" er European outfit would have at least tried. Regardless of the â€" arguâ€" ments one way or the other. This is a Canadian country, populated by Canadian people and anyone not proud of the fact they are a Canadian, shouldn‘t be here. Personally we have little or no patience with old country people who come here for a fast living they couldn‘t have anywhere except in Canada and then keep harping on the benefits of the land they left. Galling to most thinking Canadians is the flying of the British flag. We are no colony nor are we tied to Britian in any shape or form. The asinâ€" ine attitude towards Britian | and the Queen is not truly} Canadian and is fostered by| vartous types of media solely | because they are incapable of digging up news worthwhile that would appeal to their reaâ€" ders. So what if Princess Margarâ€" et is going to have a baby, who cares. She is a perfectly healthy young woman and why shouldn‘t she. But what is blaâ€" zes is newsworthy about it? Waterloo council now they have â€" shown â€" their _ attitude would do well to set a policy whoerehy only the Canadian flag (such as we have now) could be flown over public buildings. This nonsense of flying the British flag over the new retail area in Waterloo shows either ignorance or a biased â€" attitude, â€" neither of which we need in this city.
