I 'retired' from the North Shore News in 1989. Even got a gold watch, courtesy of supporters. But on being asked to return to the paper, I did so. I owed it. In that same year the censors and bigots of the Canadian Jewish Congress laid their complaint before the Human Rights Gestapo.
Jewish groups brook no questioning of their orthodoxies.
So I planned to leave by the end of 1995. I had planned to quit today and start writing The Diary of a Redneck. But the Bill 33 thing still bubbles. Ever optimistic, I then thought that the Inquisition would be done with in 1996. But the inquisitors love to keep people on the rack as long as possible, in the hope that they will plead for mercy.
