Wow how despicable can you be?

Sounds like something paramour would do

i've always thought of the canadians as nice people ... what a ghastly thing to do .

It is much better to LIE to the children!

awwww let the kids believe in magic when they are little....they grow up too fast in today's world as it is.

This happened where I live. I didn't make it down to the parade this year with the kids, so thankfully they didn't have to witness it.

Offbeat, we are nice. Though, just like every other country, there are a*****es amongst the nice people.

Thanks for the link Dark_Tink. I've always heard that Canadians are really nice people. You're right, there are going to be a** holes everywhere you go lol

Edit: I don't understand whats so wrong about them believing in stuff like the Tooth-Fairy, Santa Clause, The Easter Bunny or Jack Frost. Like I said, these kids grow up way too fast in this fast paced world. Why not believe in a little magic while you can?

But magic isn't real. It is like smoke and mirrors...

I was so relieved to see this in the article:

"The man, whose name was witheld in the release has been charged with Causing a Disturbance by Being Drunk and Breach of Probation.

Additionally he is facing a Liquor Licence Act offence of Public Intoxication."

Nothing to do with Santa at all.

I told my daughter Santa isn't real. She figured out the Tooth Fairy on her own. She's still a little kid and not scarred at all.

That man had no right harrassing those people.

Its not his business to do that. He probaly made those children cry. what a ahole.

Another Santa got fired for making fun of a kids Maple Leafs hat. Told the kid the Leafs suck.

Well, what is wrong is that they will then grow to become more easy to brainwash if/when believing in imaginary and invisible characters!



Because when they grow up it will be much easier to manipulate and trick their minds by the various con artists and used car salesman out there...

But you can always tell them what magic really is...

If that's meant to be an analogy, you're doing it wrong.

I think that was along the lines of, "It's funny 'cause it's true!!!"

Don't tell David Copperfield that I said that though.
