September 10: Letter to the Editor

September 10, 2015

Re: Obscenity laws leave us covering our  eyesOn July 28, The Journal published an editorial that referred to an informational display in downtown Kingston by the group Show the Truth. The Journal erroneously described the group as “anti-abortion”. This term is problematic and offensive. This group and many others self-identify as “pro-life”. This has been the accepted term for the pro-life community for many decades. Those of us in the pro-life community would appreciate your co-operation in using more culturally sensitive language.

Science Misconduct Always AmplifiesAs I wrote in my June 30 letter to the editor, “The injustice and damage are much, much wider” than a single professor engaging in research misconduct, and a single professor being threatened for exposing that research misconduct. On one hand, the damage spreads into the university administration. Queen’s apparently has been protecting the offending professor and threatening the whistle-blowing professor. That is contrary to norms of university conduct.Someone should find out who at Queen’s decided this and why.
