All Things Being Equal . . . They’re Not

​One might have guessed that the latest Trudeau/Morneau “budget” would have had another object besides trying to rein in spending or increasing real economic growth. Sure enough, solving the inequities of the workplace is the stated goal, with “gender” being mentioned 358 times in the budget document.

If Trudeau Went to ___ What Would He Wear?

​If Trudeau went to Africa, would he put black make-up on his face and wear traditional clothes to “respect their culture”? He would be called racist if he did.

A Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian . . . Really?

​During the long and rocky federal election of 2015, Justin Trudeau, at the Munk Leaders Debate, objected loudly to the provisions of Bill C-24 which allowed for the stripping of Canadian citizenship from dual-citizenship convicted terrorists, famously stating that “a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian”.

A One Man Band

Have you ever seen a “One Man Band”. I remember in the movie Mary Poppins, “Bert” (Dick Van Dyke) at the beginning playing his trumpet, french horn, drums, cymbals etc. while making up ditties to amuse the spectators. Fundraising, we may call it.

The Role of Conscience and the Rule of Law

On Friday, Prime Minister Trudeau tried to explain to a crowd in Nanaimo why he is willing to violate his own conscience and thinks it right to compel other Canadians to violate theirs. He claimed the inspiration for this approach was taught him by his father’s actions while he (Pierre Trudeau) was Prime Minister.

Canadian Values or Liberal Values?

​Our Prime Minister’s idea of having an ideological test for Canada’s Summer Jobs Program is a story that has captured significant attention—even from journalists and commentators who are adamantly “pro-choice”—because even they can see that this is a problem.

Bullies in the Classroom

Be Fruitful and Multiply (NOT!!!)

​It is hard to be shocked by our left-wing media, but the CBC published an article on why people should shame families who have more children than average! As I read this article, I had to wonder at the audacity of these "conscientious objectors" who have created a backlash because Chip and Joanna Gaines decided to have their fifth child.

Above Us Only Snowflakes

What do John Lennon’s “Imagine” and Pierre Elliot Trudeau’s long walk in the snow have in common? They both made statements about what is above us.

Distracted Driving on the Road of Life

Ever since cellphones became commonplace, the public has become aware of the hazards of “distracted driving”. The convenience of being able to make or receive calls while driving brought with it the danger of losing one’s focus on the road, the actions of other drivers and unexpected obstacles.

Signs of Tyranny in the “New Canada”

Years ago my father would instruct my sisters and me to do something…“or else.” We never asked what the “or else” was…we knew better. Justin Trudeau has given us the “or else” for the Canada Summer Jobs Program and it isn’t pretty.
