”Murder’ is often used as a synonym to the word ‘help’ in West Indies culture…’

January 5, 2012 By Kathy Shaidle

We have GOT to move out of Toronto…

Livingston Jeffers should not have been found guilty of counseling for murder and mischief for creating signs with the word ‘murder’ and a photo of local councillor Michael Thompson because there was no proof of any intention for harm, according to a 3-0 decision by the Ontario Court of Appeal.”

The appeal court ruled that the judge had erred by not considering Mr. Jeffers’ poor literacy skills and usage of Caribbean slang in the posters. Mr. Jeffers, who came to Canada in 1974 from the island of Monstserrat, told the court that the term ‘murder’ is often used as a synonym to the word ‘help’ in West Indies culture.”
