Another International Custody Problem
[Miami,FL]
A young Canadian boy is being held in Miami today by a group of Canadian expatriates who refuse to let
him be returned to his father in Canada.
The boy, one Ernie MacDougal, was visiting Disney World with his mother when she fell out of the ride
on Splash Mountain.
After what some say is a miraculous survival aided by members of the Miami Dolphins, he reached the
end of the ride, where he was interviewed by Disney security. Asked repeatedly where he was from, he
kept answering, "Saskatoon Saskatchewan." Taking this as the babblings of delirium, the boy was turned
over to Dr. Phil McCracken, the physician on duty at the park at that time.
As luck would have it, Dr. McCracken is a Canadian who had himself fled the tyranny of having the
Canadian government tell him how to run his medical practice, and had come to the United States in
hopes of having large publicly traded corporations tell him how to run his medical practice.
Family members, living in Miami,swept the boy away to their home and called the media to announce
their intention to prevent the boy from being returned to a country where he could not be free to take a
gun to school to defend himself against the other children with guns.
Other Canadian expatriates have formed a human shield around the house, linking arms and shouting,
"Hell no, he won't go, eh!"
The boy's father in Saskatoon has issued a public demand for his return, but as yet has shown no sign of
willingness to travel to Miami. State department experts on Canada believe that he is not allowed to leave
Canada until he manages to complete a multi-page passport application in flawless French.
Ironically, the boy's mother survived her fall but was later found shot to death in the Disney parking lot,
where muggers mistook her for a German tourist.
Further developments as they occur. |
