Friday, January 4, 2002 - Print Edition, Page A10 By MARK-ALAN WHITTLE Hamilton -- After reading Alan Borovoy's plea for mercy for Robert Latimer, I felt compelled to speak up for children like Tracy and my five-year-old son Logan, who has cerebral palsy. It would have been easy to pull the plug on my boy the way Mr. Latimer did on his daughter, but it would have been completely wrong and a criminal act. Thanks to hard work and a commitment from my community, Logan is in public school and living his life to the fullest. Tracy just wanted to live her life to the fullest, too. Mr. Latimer should be made to pay his full debt to society and Tracy for his cold-blooded, self-serving act. Latimer's dilemma Saturday, January 5, 2002 - Print Edition, Page A12 By WILLIAM O. FENNELL Toronto -- Re Latimer Should Pay (letters -- Jan. 4): It's sad and disheartening that the two letter writers failed to sympathize in any way with the dilemma Robert Latimer faced with his daughter Tracy. When Mark Alan Whittle can write of his disabled son, in apparent comparison, "Thanks to hard work and a commitment from my community, Logan is in public school and living his life to the fullest," he simply demonstrates this failure. Alan Borovoy had it right.
