I have already gone with this proposition to our local MLA Greg Dewar of 
Selkirk. In a conflict with the local school division I realized that there 
is no defender of children's rights. This position exists in other provinces 
and it would make a real difference if someone would be listening to their 
concerns. Right now we have a system in place that advocates for methods 
of discipline that are 30 years behind.
