FUNDING FOR JEWISH DAY SCHOOLS

 Canada is a secular country and the idea of supporting the Jewish separate schools with public money is outdated. If it could be done politically, I would eliminate the support for the Catholic school system, but that would not be pursued by any political leader.

I agree the Jewish separate schools needs financial help, but it should come from within the Jewish community.

I am a secular Jew but the protection of the Jewish identity is also important to me, and I would help with a donation in this regard. Maybe there are others who feel the same way. UJA Federation of Greater Toronto could act as a distributor of the funds, but it must be designated for this purpose by the donors.

Short Bio: I was born in Toronto in 1931 to a wonderful mother who divorced shortly before my birth. I owe a great deal of my success to her. I am Jewish but not at all religious, yet my culture plays an important part of my personality. I attended Harbord Collegiate and U. of T. Faculty of Pharmacy. A unique mail-order pharmacy was the first of my endeavours in the profession, followed by many stores throughout Ontario. I have a loving wife, 3 children and grand-children and I am now retired from pharmacy. But what do I write about? Everything! My topics are funny, serious, whimsical, timely, outrageous, inspiring, and inventive. I promise that if you take the time to read any one of these topics – you will not be sorry.
