The TTC doesn't help alleviate the stereotype of Torontonian arrogance. Following public outcry at their inefficiency, TTC employees are rambling against the public and apparently want to add insult to injury through some work-to-rule action. Where on earth does the TTC find them?
Every public transit system will have its ups and downs, as much as every business has good and bad employees. Co...
So I was watching something on my local channel about some proposed changes to the City bylaws regarding pets/owners. One proposal was to fine people $350 if they were out walking their dogs but did not have a 'doody bag' with them to clean up after their animal.Sorry but I find that ridiculous. I've stepped in dog poo. Just last week I went out to shovel my front walk and found a GIANT pile...

One of the most predictable effects of anti-racism policies can be found in the law of unintended consequences, in that after a while they tend to foster and perpetuate the very racism those policies aim to defeat. After all, cataloging and enumerating every shade of skin pigment in a University is more than just [...]
Faced with increasing criticism after a spate of pictures and videos showing TTC employees not doing their job, operators at the public transit syndicate have decided to fight back:
This is a group where Operators can give suggestions on how to fight back to the recent photo and video harassment from passengers just looking to make [...]
Chatelaine magazine has an on-line photo spread of six of Canada's male winter Olympic athletes in various stages of undress. The picture at right is of skier Kyle Nissen, skis strageically placed. So here's an idea - lets start staging the Olympic games with all nude athletes, just like they did in ancient Greece. I think it would do wonders for TV ratings.The ancient Greek Olympic games we...
I’ll believe it when I see it but apparently the trial involving Liberal insiders may actually start in April.
“David Basi and Virk face breach of trust and fraud charges for allegedly accepting benefits from lobbyists representing one of the bidder for BC Rail in exchange for providing confidential provincial government information about the sale. Aneal [...]
Quebec Liberal Jean Charest thinks it’s perfectly OK to ship asbestos to third world countries and he washes his hands of any responsibility for the health of workers in these countries:
“There are no perfect products … No products have zero impact on the environment, either. Everything humans do has an environmental impact.”

Hello Canada,For family and friends, and all those who are interested, here is another update on life in Ottawa.Stability has comeKoliah and I have entered our most stable time yet in Ottawa.

The other day Africagate exploded onto the world stage, and now it turns out that not only will AGW likely not harm parts of Africa, it may actually help:Desertification, drought, and despair—that's what global warming has in store for much of Africa. Or so we hear.Emerging evidence is painting a very different scenario, one in which rising temperatures could benefit millions of Africans in ...

As we prepare to discuss the health and rights of impoverished women and children abroad with our industrialized allies, it was comforting to see Jack Layton take a different road than his Liberal counterpart. Instead of insisting on funding foreign abortions, Jack would like us to instead focus on the women and children here in Canada living under poverty. To hear Jack tell the story, you'd t...
Yesterday I heard this Toronto municipal news tidbit from a source close to Rob Ford’s camp who says that the conservative city councilor is “definitely in” for a shot at taking over the mayor’s office, a post to be vacated by David Miller in the next year. Today, I called Ford himself and confirmed [...]
In 1997, Stephen Harper and Tom Flanagan jointly penned an essay titled “Our Benign Dictatorship” in which they laid out why the Liberal government of the time was essentially undefeatable, as well as what would be required for it’s defeat. Namely, they pointed to electoral co-operation (between Reform and the PCs) in the form of [...]

Oh my, the greens are pulling out all the stops and are now falling back on standard leftist boilerplate ... somewhere, somehow, they'll blame Exxon ... I can't wait to see how they tie Haliburton in:A complicated web of relationships revolves around a number of right-wing think-tanks around the world that dispute the threats of climate change. ExxonMobil is a key player behind the scenes, ha...
The question of the day:Who sends who the talking points? Does Iggy send them down to Hugo Chavez? Or is Hugo Chavez enlisting Michael Ignatieff into the Chavezification movement?At this point, we can't tell. But we know they each share an abiding dislike of Stephen Harper. They are both alight with anger over the move to prorogue Canada's parliament. And they are both interested in, to ...

Despite having killed and decapitated his parents with an axe in 2007, Alain Piche will still get his inheritance after Quebec's Court of Appeal overturned a 2008 Superior Court decision by Judge Ivan Godin.
The decision was based on the Civil Code, which states that a per...

I wonder how long it will take for the Liberal Party of Canada or its leader, Michael Ignatieff, to stand up for Canada and respond to the slanderous allegations by Venezuela’s ambassador to the Organization of American States, Roy Chaderton Matos, that Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan are guilty of torture and assassinations. I doubt we’ll hear any defence of Canada from Jack Layton or th...

I want to talk very quickly about abortion before I try to wrap my head around the above question.
If there are people who wish to be world leaders in our society today, who advocate access to "safe terminations" and the right to not live in "misery," which I can only assume means nine months of having something you don't want in your body, then what has this world come to? And this par...

I walked over 15 K this morning from my temporary lodgings in Dalhousie along John Laurie, up into the mist that cloaked Nose Hill and back again.
Sharp hooved white tail deer glared back but I glared back in a threatening way and they retreated to an aspen grove.
The fog was completely encompassing, yet I carried on. I'm pretty sure I am the first human to the top of Nose Hill, at least...

A whistleblower finally came forward (and was promptly sacked) for reporting on Amnesty International’s odd relationship with Cageprisoners, an organization that advocates on behalf of the “innocent victims” of the war on terror at Guantanamo — many of whom return to the battlefield to wage jihad as soon as they are released.

The Tea Party movement in the United States is probably the most significant new North American conservative movement in decades, and although I question its long-term significance, it does seem to be off to a fast start. In about a year of existence, the movement already has two notches on its belt to mark its relevance on the national stage: the highly successful September 12 demonstration i...

Long before the redevelopment of the Woodward’s building was completed—to offer a mix of market and social housing reinvigorating Vancouver’s oldest neighborhood—there were skeptics of the plan; not least from the potential buyers:

This is the trial of the century. The increasingly popular Dutch politician, Geert Wilders is on trial for saying offensive things about Islam, and truth, apparently, is not going to be a defence.

A commenter on my post “The anti-Israel ‘Rights & Democracy’ funded by Canadians” takes exception to my label of the Rights & Democracy organization as an NGO and as anti-Israel. And so I quote John Flag (emphasis mine):

Everyday that ticks by brings the Harper CPC closer to crossing the line between simply being political game-players, to being wilful participants in defrauding Canadians out of hundreds of millions of dollars. The BC, Quebec, and Ontario governments may have already crossed that line.In America the class action crowd are sharpening their knives ... daring the EPA to take action on CO2 ... dari...
What have MPs been up to while Parliament is not sitting? Not much according to Kelly McParland. He even questions the value of question period. Shouldn't they not be busy at work in their constituencies tending to the concerns of their constituents? I'm sure some are. Not so sure others are though. We pay these clowns just to gripe and complain all the time? How about working together t...
