City that tried to ban Mark Steyn now angry over Facebook ‘pussy’ song

January 7, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

Remember these guys?

They’re even dumber than imagined:

London’s entire city council must take sensitivity training after a racy song was posted on one councillor’s Facebook page.

The Free Press has learned a program focusing on women abuse and family violence, which all city workers already must take, is now mandatory for council — the fallout of an online flare-up that’s ensnared Coun. Stephen Orser.

“I apologize to anyone who was offended by it,” Orser said of a YouTube music video, titled The Pussycat Song, he says was posted by a female friend who had access to his Facebook page.

“(The friend’s) sense of humour is a whole different ball game than mine. As soon as I saw it, I removed it.”

The song, full of not-so-subtle double entendres, was only posted briefly, Orser said.

But at least one person who saw it on Orser’s personal Facebook page — on which he identifies himself as a city councillor — complained to city hall.

Mark Steyn eventually spoke to over 1000 people at a sold-out London, Ontario venue. Ezra Levant and I addressed a standing room only crowd there a few years ago. The people of “Forest City” are clearly panting for displays of political incorrectness — so why are their city employees so perpetually ridiculous?
