First off, the Post looks into part of Ezra Levant's latest salvo in the continuing legal battle between him and someone who I won't name on this blog in the forseeable future.Second, the Federal Court of Appeals has ruled that succesful defendents in federal human rights cases cannot be awarded costs. Good for them. I always thought there was a little too much fairness and justice in our proces

For some time now, I have had Brad W’s blog on my list of “education” favourites. I think it is time to feature him here and get him a bit of exposure. Brad is a high school English teacher somewhere in Ontario. His site is professional, precise, thorough and technologically advanced. In other words, his students and his colleagues are [...]

I would like to send out a big thank you to all who have taken the time to read my blog. In less than 6 months, I've written 100 posts, averaging a little over a post every two days - not a huge number when compared to others, but for me it's meant a number of late nights, frustrating debates (at times), moments where I wondered if anybody was reading, errors I've had to correct... On th

An angry reader of my blog has sent me this quiz with lots of other advice because she thinks "You should check your facts before putting pen to paper as there is no such place as Palestine in Gaza or the West Bank." My apologies, Judy. Goes to show how much the MSM has fed us false knowledge and unknowingly we seem to rely on non-facts as the truth. The quiz was an eye-opener. I have to

Further to my previous post, it seems more than a coincidence that the two most recent stories to grace the top spot on National Newswatch for a day seem to link back to individuals involved with Michael Ignatieff.As noted by a commenter at Joanne's blog Blue Like You, Attaran and Ignatieff can be linked back to the Carr Center at Harvard. And now today's top story at National Newswatch links to

Many thanks to Marx-A-Million for setting this up! Hey Marxy - can you put up a picture of Ignatieff in the profile? That's certainly how I see it, how about you?

Via Macleans.ca:The Liberals figure the Conservatives could save $1.2-billion if they cut advertising, consulting and polling expenditures back to pre-2006 levels and reduced cabinet back to 31 members.How lovely of them. If you read their release, I found these lines particularly interesting:“Given this government’s obsession with advertising and self-promotion, it is not surprising to see th

Box Turtle Bulletin has an interesting podcast up this week that asks "What’s the deal with gay conservatives? How does LGBT identity intersect with our politics?" Moderated by Gabriel Arana, it includes analysis by "gay libertarian conservative" Timothy Kincaid and "progressive centre-left gay Democrat" Jim Burroway. Although it is from an American blog & focuses a lot on the gay marriage

The immortal words of Chick Willis from his musical ballad "why you like Obama" where he proclaimed "he'll bring down the oil prices so we all can afford to ride...everybody that has a car out there knows that Barak Obama is a driver's friend!" Oh really? Refusing to drill offshore and taxing carbon is going to reduce oil prices? So when Obama was elected, world crude oil prices were hoverin

In light of the fact you seem to be kowtowing the Liberal agenda of raising taxes, along with your TD co-horts, let's see how much skin you really have in the game.

Foreign Policy blog informs us of this. Despite having served for years as a distinguished Pakistani diplomat, Akbar Zeb reportedly cannot receive accreditation as Pakistan’s ambassador to Saudi Arabia. The reason, apparently, has nothing to do with his credentials, and everything to do with his name — which, in Arabic, translates to “biggest dick”: In Saudi Arabia, [...]

Anyone regulars of this blog know that Mr. Iffy is not my favourite politician, but I thought it was in poor taste for Rick Mercer to take a shot at his wife: “…and Michael Ignatieff shows up for ‘Take-Your-Slightly-Bizarre-Wife to Work’ Day.” [Feb. 9, 2010 - The Front Page] Are you offended?

If anyone had any doubts about how anti-Conservative "National Newswatch" has become this should end all doubts. It is one thing to feature a long string of anti-Conservative opinion pieces from the likes of the Toronto Star but now he is featuring rather lame content from marginal left wing bloggers. The lame article in question mocks Stephen Taylor for an interview he performed. He compares th

Blogmeistro Binks, over at Free Canuckistan, is taking a hiatus of his own for health reasons. Go visit his blog and wish him well - nothing makes a blogger feel more validated than high traffic stats. It makes all the hateful comments, lost time, burnt-out eyeballs, blank stares, and brushes with depression worthwhile.

Maxime Bernier presents on his blog his vison of conservatism. It's very interesting, I like:«That would be quite a change, don’t you think?

But the consequences would be much deeper.It would mean
