Tory leader says Halloween threatens children

[mentalfloss]

'I hate Halloween, I always have,' says the opposition leader


At the time, Pallister was talking about the NDP's PST hike, which dominated house debate in 2014. Ultimately, he was trying to draw a comparison between the tax increase and a holiday known for costumes.

"So the question becomes will Manitobans see through the disguise," Pallister said of the NDP.

The argument quickly turned bizarre when Pallister passionately reiterated his hatred for the holiday.

"I hate Halloween, I always have," he said.

"I don't like the deceit of it. I don't like the holiday and I never will. I don't like trick-or-treat … I don't think it's good for the integrity of the kids."

​The following is a complete excerpt from Hansard of Pallister's comments:

..cut short to remain compliant with this forum's authoritarians...

Hey, at least the dude owns up to the fact he actually doesn't like it. Unlike the racist left-tards who want to change the name of "Christmas" while blaming it on the immigrants, claiming it's offensive or culturally insensitive to them.


Gutless cowards. lol
