Kudos to John Papaloukas.
He’s a pizza seller in Victoria, BC, and he’d had it with the province’s ministry of education, which classifies pizza as junk food, and therefore deems it unwelcome in the schools for lunch.

Result: his pizzas passed with flying colours, and Papaloukas is selling his pizza to local high school cafeterias.
