[edit] Country of birth
Since the name of the country is "Trinidad and Tobago" it's more accurate to use that, rather that just the name of the biggest/most populous island. Guettarda 19:01, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Favorite Target
I don't think she's a favorite target for anyone (I've never heard of her) and it sounds like there are much better reasons for her being a target than those listed. TastyCakes 19:40, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
- Jay Hill (MP for only part of northern Prince George and the Peace River Region) loves to attack Hedy Fry in local debates. In fact he never shuts up about how she smeared the 'good' people of Prince George; he mentioned it at a forum in the lead up to the 2004 election. It's funny as Jay Hill (and his mother according to some locals) has used racist language and remarks in public several times (see his article for the most widely reported one). Maybe Hedy Fry confused Prince George with Fort St. John, as once a building was partially set on fire and swastikas were spray painted on it too (I can see how she could make that mistake).--RPlunk 18:32, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Anti-American Conference
The Conference section is misleading. The partial title implies that the conference was "anti-imperialist" while it was actually called "Women's Resistance: From Victimization to Criminalization". It was actually planned to be about anti-sexism and hate and was obviously called well in advance. It was co-sponsored by the Canadian Association of Sexual Assault Centres and the Canadian Association of Elizabeth Fry Societies, fairly innocuous organizations. The conference wasn't inherently controversial and there was only one high-profile anti-American speech by Sunera Thobani, a UBC prof. and former president of the National Action Committee on the Status of Women. --JGGardiner 00:43, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Prenominal title
I am removing her prenominal title from the top as per per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies). --JGGardiner 00:38, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Post-Nominals
Some postnominals were removed and marked them "meaningless" in the edit summary. Personally I'm not a fan of including postnominals anyway but those weren't meaningless (or vandalism if that's what was meant). LRCPSI (Licentiate Royal College of Phyicians and Surgeons of Ireland) is the Irish equivalent of an FRCP]. An LM is a Licentiate in Midwifery (also Irish) which apparently she has. --JGGardiner 19:43, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
She did not threaten America. When you read the link text, she was actually talking about human right violations and why were we not going after all countires that were threatening America, not just a few. Your section reads a little misleading.
