By now, that picture of Brigette DePape holding a Stop Harper Sign has become an iconic image. Brigette is the 21-year-old Senate page who walked out in front of Governor General David Johnston holding that sign as he read the throne speech.
There are different opinions about Brigette's action. Some think it is highly inappropriate and disrespectful.Others think she is inspirational and courageous.
I agree with Brigette that Canadian values would not favor military spending and war activities in foreign countries, while not paying attention and taking action to protect the environment at home.
In some countries, a person who would dare to do what Brigette did would be arrested and put to jail, even killed. Oh Canada, how I love thee !!!
This is my opinion: Brigette is not a villain. She is a heroine !!!
