Having finished with ‘rights’ and ‘racism,’ Canadian bureaucrats redefine ‘chutzpah’

February 24, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

Compare:

Leo Rosten, author of The Joy of Yiddish, defines chutzpah as “that quality enshrined in a man who, having killed his mother and father, throws himself on the mercy of the court because he is an orphan.”

And contrast:

The Ontario Energy Board says utilities can raise rates to cover 18 million dollars in fines and court costs they had to pay after the courts ruled they were charging too high an interest rate on late payments.
