Re: Tuition increase won't help much, say universities by Nick Martin (April 29). The provincial government has played a sleight-of-hand game with universities and colleges in Manitoba this year with operating funds for the institutions. In 2007 and 2008, the province increased operating grants by seven per cent. Now that tuition fees are rising by 4.5 per cent, the province's operating grant increase is about 5.9 per cent, a decrease of about 1.1 percentage points. Letter writer John Kennedy states Omar Khadr was not a child soldier when the then 15-year-old Khadr was captured by American soldiers in Afghanistan. According to international law that Canada has ratified Khadr was a child soldier. This reality was upheld by a Canadian Federal Court on April 23, ruling the Harper governmen...

Subsequent to reading Matt Schaubroeck's letter written in response to Blair Dawson's letter (Show south more respect, Feb. 28), I reread Dawson's letter and nowhere did he make the assertion that "because the south pays more in property taxes they should be handed amenities on a silver platter." What Dawson did say is that the south should have the same entitlement to community services. I support Joy Smith's private member's bill, C-268. It would create a mandatory minimum sentence of five years for anyone convicted of trafficking a minor in Canada. Smith seems to understand Canada's obligation to hand down appropriate penalties that reflect the grave nature of these crimes, as our government said they would when they ratified the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of t...

With these two hands, my mother holds me, cares for me. This, I love," says one young girl from East Asia. "With these two hands, my mother hits me. This I hate. "Sometimes, one day in prison feels like a year," he says. "But after 10 days, you get used to it, and you don't cry as much." Almost all of the UN's 192 member states have approved the world body's 1989 Convention on the Rights of the Child, which says countries must pass laws ensuring children are treated with dignity. Almost half have approved a 2000 "protocol" to the treaty that says world governments must end the sale of children in their countries, and protect the young from people who would turn them into prostitutes or use them in pornography.

Every human society, no matter how primitive it may look, is governed by a code of laws. These laws give order and meaning to their lives and serve for social control and overall development of the society. Some societies deny their citizens especially women and children, their natural and civil rights because they believe that the rights of women and children are adequately protected by their husbands and fathers. But the inhuman treatment meted out to women and children even by their husbands and fathers have brought to the fore the errors and problems of taking for granted the protection of the rights of women and children in the society. This paper therefore examines the dangers posed by taking the rights of children for granted in the society and efforts being made in Nigeria to pr...
