More Torstar Socialism

Sometimes, I think I should just give up blogging, and do my best to promote Bob over at Let It Bleed. He’s usually right on the money, says what I wish I could say, and does a heck of a better job. Today, he’s got some great comments on Carol Goar from the Toronto Star. […]

Witch Hunt

Email Letter To My M.P., March 30, 2004: Dear Mr. Calder, I have read a media report that on March 29th, 2004, Liberal House Leader Jacques Saada, apparently made a comment in the House of Commons that compared the investigation into AdScam to a “witch hunt.” Although I have never had any official response from

Anti-Virus Scamming?

By way of The Daily Blog, a Networking Computer blog, Wired News muses aloud about the possibility that anti-virus companies aren’t doing enough to solve the e-mail virus problem. I personally don’t worry about email viruses as I use Linux. And contrary to some opinion that the only reason why Linux systems aren’t effected is

I’ve been hard on cops a couple of times recently. But this time, I’m coming out in support of something that I think has been given way too much time and coverage. In the Toronto Star today, there’s an editorial entitled “Poor Tool For Police,” a criticism of fund raising that some police associations have

Cops Charged

There’s a story that’s strangely quiet, and that if true, should fill you with disgust. Thankfully, Mark Bonokoski of The Toronto Sun has picked up on it, and hopefully more of our ‘Free Press’ will investigate. In my recent blog entry on “Canadian Cops – Servants or Masters?” I was tempted to discuss the story

More On Today’s Editorial

I’ve just been doing my daily blog rounds, and found this good piece over at Let It Bleed, on an editorial that appeared in today’s Toronto Star. All the more reason why The Star should become a public service. We could raise the standards of journalism and editorialism, and enforce them better. Business just isn’t

Right Wing Form Of Commerce – For Shame!

Surely having a press is a need that the citizenry requires in order to have knowledge of current events? Is this something we want to risk having disappear? As we move deeper into the Internet age, and more and more of the rich are obtaining their news electronically, we’re risking the slow demise of printed
