This story is front page news in Canada right now.

Our new Consul General in Miami is a woman named Roxanne Dubé, and she has only been in the job two months.  Yesterday, her two teenage sons, who were both allegedly armed, took her BMW to go buy drugs, and the affair ended with the 17-year old dead, and the 15-year old charged with murder.  If you read the history of this woman’s life encapsulated in the story, you’ll see that she could be a poster girl for the modern woman, and an example of someone who could hardly have made worse decisions if she tried.

First of all, she’s a French Quebecer, which means someone who grew up in the sterile dead landscape left behind by the collapse and destruction of the once-strong Catholic Church.  Doing the opposite of what Catholicism teaches is a point of perverse pride for Quebecers.  Ergo, we have someone here with no moral foundation.  She moved from the political sphere to the diplomatic world (many political types in the Liberal Party did this) and rose to the position of ambassador, heading up several African embassies.  While there, she married an African man and had two sons, then brought her exotic family back to Canada with her, where it eventually fell apart, perhaps due to her focus on her career.

Finally, she uprooted her two teenage sons again and took them away from their father as well as their familiar surroundings, and two months later, while she was busy with her very important job, they headed off to a drug deal which left one dead and the other in jail.  It’s hard to imagine how she could have done a worse job as a wife and mother.
