Teacher Arrested At Toronto Pearson Airport

Got this in an email and thought I would share.;)

A high school teacher was arrested today at Toronto Pearson Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a compass, a slide-rule and a calculator.

At a press conference, Premier Kathleen Wynne said she believes the man is a member of the notorious extremist Al-Gebra movement. She did not identify the man, who has been charged by the RCMP with carrying weapons of maths instruction.

'Al-Gebra is a problem for us', the Premier said. 'They derive solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in search of absolute values. They use secret code names like "X" and "Y" and refer to themselves as "unknowns"; but we have determined that they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the Greek philosopher Isosceles used to say, "There are three sides to every triangle."’

When asked to comment on the arrest, Prime Minister Trudeau said, "If God had wanted us to have better weapons of maths instruction, He would have given us more fingers and toes."

Fellow Liberal colleagues told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by any Prime Minister.

I heard that the C-al-culus front was a break away from the Al-Gebra and were trying to differentiate themselves through proofs and actions.

I think it was Prime Minister Justin Poodeau that came out with a statement that he couldn't understand Al-Gebra and what differentiated C-al-culus from them and that as a head of Canada and the Liberal party both were un-Canadian. In his example he pointed out that beyond 5 or 10 he felt there was no need to count higher due to confusion it might cause Canadian voters. When questioned by "theRebel" and his view on them and math in general and the effect on the deficit planning his reply 5 or 30 don't worry about how many billions we will just keep saying 5 for now.

Justin's grade 4 math teacher is quoted as saying.. "*****removed by CBC censors********"
