It’s January the 10th. On January the 10th, 2001, my father passed away. I still have pains remembering it, and still to this day, wish my “auld man” was still around, to talk to, to get advice from, and just banter on together. He and I debated a lot. We didn’t always see eye to […]

Wow, what a week it’s been. This post is going to be more like a personal journal entry, that might simply ramble from topic to topic as so much neat stuff, idiotic stuff, and amazing stuff has happened all in the past week! And all of that stuff has prevented me from posting recently. Which

When Mel Lastman was the mayor of Toronto, he once made a controversial suggestion. He mused a loud that perhaps it was time for the City Of Toronto to secede from the Province of Ontario. The City of Toronto could then become a new Canadian Province. Personally, I didn’t think it was such a bad

Many on the left will disagree with me. I say, send him back. Probably not for the same reasons other would argue to send him back. For those not familiar, Hinzman was a paratrooper with the US Army. He fled to Canada in order to avoid going to war in Iraq. The reasons for not

“The Endarkenment proceeds at a gallop, and the consequences are clear to everyone who cares to look, by now. This is how the end comes: no with a bang or a whimper, but with a smug declaration that it’s for your own good, for national security, for the people. And you aren’t against that, are
By way of Shamrocks, we discover that Antony Flew has now become a deist. Well known for his atheist view points over the past half century, this conversion of sorts may be a shock to some. According to this ABC News report, Flew says, “My whole life has been guided by the principle of Plato’s

My friend Timmy The G has posted a reply to my reply that was a reply from him to another reply to someone else. Or something like that. Confused yet? Me too. Let’s see if we can follow the order of this. I wrote this post in response to some things written by Simon. My

Captain Liar has a post which is entitled, “Red Ensign: Flag Of Hate” As someone who doesn’t put much worth in any kind of symbolism, whether it be flags, crosses, rings, swastikas, sunwheels, buddha statues, and anything else that people tend to worship or get some emotional feeling from while observing, holding, or having, I

I am very reluctant to support any hate crime laws. I think their very nature is controversial, and perhaps can be used to stop and even persecute open and legitimate discussion or debate. Canada’s hate crime laws are very subjective, and hence open to a number of different interpretations. The problem with hate crime laws
