This is a very bad idea...
No one should get preferences....
Mayor Richard Daley said Wednesday that he would support an effort to give preferential treatment in city contracting to businesses owned by gays and lesbians.
The city already sets aside a portion of contracts for businesses owned by blacks, Hispanics, Asians and women, though the program has been plagued by cases where companies that claimed such status turned out to be owned by whites. African-African aldermen also have raised concerns that City Hall hasn't met the goals.
Now Ald. Thomas Tunney (44th), the City Council's openly gay member, wants companies owned by gays and lesbians to enjoy the same consideration in doing business with the city.
"I think it's good," said Daley, who enjoys strong support from gays and lesbians. "It helps businesses grow in the city, and that's what you want."

Sorry Mr. Daley . . .
Fred,
This really takes the cake,
Most prolific child trafficker in Ontario Mr. Theodore Giesbrecht is about to become a Local Hero.
Ted Giesbrecht, hatchet man of the dreaded Ontario Ministry of Children and Youth Services (also known as Ontario Ministry of Commercial Utilisation of Children and Youth) wears many hats on his job. When one of over fifty Ontario’s Children's Aid Societies gets in trouble and steals kids from a family with some political connections the "Ministry" dispatches Ted Giesbrecht disguised as an “Independent Director” nominated under CFSA to shove all the dirt under the carpet.
When Ontario Liberals need cash, and they always need cash, the "Ministry" sells babies produced at "Ontario baby breeding farms" (Group Homes for Troubled Youth). To accomplish that delicate task the "Ministry" uses discrete services of Ted Giesbrecht and his Kitchener law firm to sell these babies, babies that were never registered (issued birth certificates) to wealthy clients who cannot be bothered with cumbersome “legal” adoption process. Once the deal is done, cash collected and passed on to Liberanos, and baby safely delivered to the “new mother” equally discrete midwife shows up at purchasers’ residence and issues Certificate of Live Birth to a “new” and often completely infertile “mother”.

Over time Ted Giesbrecht developed his own stable of baby breeders; women with extensive CAS records who when they get pregnant bypass CAS and go directly to Ted to sell their bastard brood that local CAS would never let them keep anyway.

Here; Ted Giesbrecht comes to the rescue.

Saving Imagine Adoption

KITCHENER–Families are buoyed by a plan to try to save a bankrupt Cambridge adoption agency by bringing in new management.
If successful, it would mean hundreds of clients who invested months of time and up to $20,000 would still be able to adopt children from overseas.
Would-be parents were devastated when Kids Link International Adoption Agency, which operated as Imagine Adoption, collapsed July 14. But they left a Kitchener meeting in good spirits yesterday after about 200 creditors voted unanimously to pursue a restructuring effort outlined by bankruptcy trustees from BDO Dunwoody.
"I've never seen so many people in one room agree on something so quickly," said Ingrid Phaneuf of Etobicoke, who is trying to adopt an Ethiopian child. "It was fantastic."
Under the plan, about six people with the necessary expertise would take over the non-profit agency. The plan would require approval from the provincial government, which licenses international adoption organizations.
Bankruptcy trustee Susan Taves said the plan will be explored and developed over the next two to four weeks to see if it can work.
"I think it's really probable – a high percentage of success here," she said after the meeting.
Companies, church groups, individuals and affected families have contacted trustees with offers to help salvage the agency.
"This is a really unique file," Taves said. "In 20 years of doing this work, I've never had people call and say they'll give money to keep an organization going."
The effort also has an ally in Kitchener lawyer Ted Giesbrecht, who went to Ethiopia this month to ensure children at an agency transition home were properly cared for.
Giesbrecht, who is working for free, said staff at the home – where children matched with Canadian families are housed – hadn't been paid in six weeks.
While helping to complete adoptions that had reached the matching stage, he also reduced expenses at the home from more than $50,000 to $17,000 a month.
If the agency is restructured, Giesbrecht said, that will help stretch the money Imagine still had in the bank when it went bust
Who made you the judge, you-self indulged fuck- up. What have you done to protect the integrity and lives of homeless and distressed children you ignorant lame-brain.
