​There’s nothing new about the Liberals using the Senate, or the courts, or local city councils to do their dirty work. There are simply times when the process is more transparent. This is one of them.

​Here I sit in Ontario, where we’re told to “Stay Home” in many different languages. However it’s said though, the message from our government is the same. You may not move about freely. Most of us understand that we are dealing with a virus that goes wherever an infected person goes but a growing number of people also understand that over the past year, our “Fundamental Freedoms” have suffered increasingly severe restrictions.

​En tant qu’ancien chef du seul parti politique fédéral pro-vie du Canada de 1995 à 2008, je ne suis pas susceptible d’injures. Cependant, une décision récente de la plus haute cour du Canada m’a amené à verbaliser mon dégoût total face à la lâcheté que je vois être affichée par les juges actuels de la Cour suprême du Canada et - ce qui n’est pas si surprenant - notre Premier Ministre en exercice et son gouvernement. « Les lâches mous » leur va bien et c’est la description la plus gentille que je puisse trouver pour eux.

As a former Leader of Canada’s only pro-life federal political party from 1995 to 2008, I’m not prone to name-calling. However, a recent decision of Canada’s highest court has caused me to verbalize my utter disgust at the cowardice I see being displayed by the current justices of the Supreme Court of Canada and—not so surprisingly—our sitting Prime Minister and his government. ‘Spineless cowards’ fits them well and is the kindest description I can find for them.

When Justin Trudeau says, “Give me your guns,” he’s not addressing the common criminal. He’s talking to the hitherto law-abiding citizen who legally possesses firearms for hunting, sport, or self-defence. For criminals, the Prime Minister has a special deal: reduced sentences for those who use a firearm in the commission of a crime.

​Canada’s Parliament will be voting on a motion on whether to boycott the next winter Olympics, which are scheduled to be held in China in 2022. Why? Because the issue of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) repression of minorities, specifically the Uighur people, has become a more publicized issue recently.

​Who would have thought we’d see the day when a Canadian pastor would be taken away in shackles, simply for preaching to his flock? Sadly, that day has arrived. Pastor James Coates of Grace Life Church in Spruce Grove, Alberta (just west of Edmonton), has been arrested and remains in custody for doing what Canadian pastors have always done: preaching to congregants in the church sanctuary.

What happens to a citizen when their debts exceed their ability to pay?

This is the 2nd part of a 2-part series. Last week’s instalment was on the questionable safety and efficacy of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines currently being distributed (or not) in Canada.

Canada has been dealing with questions about COVID-19 for almost one year. Information has flooded both cable news and the internet about what the virus is, how contagious or deadly it may be and how best to control its spread and minimize the death toll. Some Canadians are asking themselves...

​To use the overused word ‘unprecedented’ again seems trite, but it is technically accurate; the resignation of Julie Payette from her role of Governor General is a historic first for Canada. She quit amid allegations of workplace harassment of her staff, certainly not an ideal way to leave any position.

​When was the last time you heard some good news in the fight for morality? It seems like a long time, doesn’t it? While complete victory is still not ours, we should be thankful for the small victories along the way. PornHub (an online porn site based in Montreal) has been exposed by the New York Times and dealt some serious setbacks.
