I don't think this debate is over yet, Tasha. The constitution will not stand up to a Charter challenging Catholic funding. In the next four years, mark my words, Dalton will either have to fund them all or fund none.
If you'll indulge me a link :) I wrote about this conundrum here http://splatto.net/blog/?p=771
I think the debate should have been left until after the election, and if Tory won, announce he will set up a commission to look into it, or something. That would give everyone time to debate the issue, after which Tory could decide to proceed or let it die. An election campaign is just too short a time to explain such an issue to all of the voters.
