Is it up to us to figure out the infighting, or continue to use it as our lame excuse to Protest?

This is going to smart a bit. But this needs to be considered at point.  Even after the worst voter turnout – coupled with the absolutely worst Liberal showing in political History,

#census : The OP ED Debate, the Twitter-verse, A cancelled Town Hall meeting, the Protest Resignation of Canada’s Chief Statistician.

Twitter, and Canadians, Hum to life on the Census Question.

Tuesday saw “census” becoming a major trend on Twitter as many Canadians tuned in to read the commentary offered by other Canadians on the Long Form Census issue.  It’s true that most do not realize the situation, and on the surface it would seem to be

The Queen of Who? The Magna Carta of What? What just happened there?

The Queen of Who? The Magna Carta of What? What just happened there?

Is this subtext even veiled by the oldest office in the land; but who’s left standing to notice?

The Queen rolls into town and that’s it; Omar Khadr is Canadian Again, (although I’m sure the Fed can and will appeal). The Magna Carta sits in Winnipeg. And aside from that a stone from the

Academia is Dead: Drill Baby, Drill.

 

What’s problematic isn’t the Oil slick in the Gulf of Mexico.  The gushing oil is a secondary problem caused mainly by the initial problem, one that existed well before the drilling began and there was an awareness of what the risks were through the procedure – mainly dubious priorities.

Winter Haiku

 

1.

I saw you burning

a cross in a jumble of

earth shelled ashen twigs.

 

It was you.

 

2.

not the voice you brought;

I sang with commas in tune

deafened to your song.

that I could be creative

and never once stop.

the light points and jades

and I have created you

mindful of shadows

 

this time.

Opinion: “Of A Culture of Refusal and Appeal”

“A Lack of Clear Mandates Draws Ste. Annes Veterans Hospital into Questions”

Accountability, eh?

There is just one thing that is clear as I go along in my course that is every day life – problems will arise.  What has become important as I grew older was not what resistance I could muster against them,

Censorship: The Whirlwind Controversy of the Ann Coulter Visit

Censorship: Steyn, Beck, Coulter et al. make strong cases for it’s re-introduction, not redaction.

So, Canada, Are we really a Nation of Spineless Cowards?

What amazes me about these people – I use that term loosely, because muzzles and leashes are in order – and their amazingly shortsighted creamy Lilly white ilk, is
