Much has happened since I last visited a column of my unfiltered thoughts upon the good people of this town. A fierce snowstorm blanketed our unsuspecting Dominion, seeking and destroying house pipes with surgical precision. Our Prime Minister took a much-needed break from surfing in stormy Tofino, to luxuriate instead in the clear-blue waters of […]

It is endlessly ironic that George Orwell’s 1984 is still assigned reading in Canadian high schools. If students make it to Chapter Five of this classic dystopian novel, they read the following: “Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed,

In 2018, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) tested 240 samples of honey across the country. While 100% of Canadian honey samples were pure, nearly 22% of imported honey was cut with corn syrup, sugar cane, rice syrup, or beet sugar. Under Canadian law, honey is a standardized product, which cannot contain added sugars. Following

Canada’s doctor shortage, largely driven by population growth through immigration, is becoming increasingly acute. This situation is being exacerbated by the foreign visa trainee program, which allows medical schools to allocate residency spots to foreign nationals. Doctors are required to compete for scarce residency spots before being licensed to practice. Because Canadian medical schools prioritize

The debate which followed the accidental Parliamentary celebration of a 98-year-old veteran of the Nazi Waffen SS 14th Grenadier Division reveals a political class which is hopelessly immature. Conservative MPs, who happily applauded along with the rest, insinuated that the Liberal Party is sympathetic to the early 20th century German ideology of Nazism – a
“When the past no longer illuminates the future, the spirit walks in darkness” – Alexis de Tocqueville I recently joined the local library’s 10am crew, literary loyalists who form a small crowd around the entrance before the grand opening. Near the front desk, a substantial number of books were displayed, “weeded” from shelves and available for

According to a new CIBC report titled “Counting heads in Canada – a conundrum” there are a million more people in Canada than recorded by official statistics. The federal government is dramatically undercounting the number of “non-permanent residents” (work or study visa holders). Many do not fill out the census, and there is no system

The reason why a majority of Canadians reject the Right-wing is because the authentic conservatism of hearth and home has been replaced with the ideology of unrestrained capitalism. Family and flag have become free trade and free markets. The removal of land from Toronto’s greenbelt by Ontario Premier Ford’s government is an excellent example of

Starting in the 2023-2024 school year, students from kindergarten to Grade 9 in British Columbia schools will no longer receive letter grades. Instead, there will be a four-point scale that includes “Emerging”, “Developing”, “Proficient”, and “Extending” – along with “descriptive feedback”. Rather than report cards, there will be five “reporting events”, consisting of four “Learning

It has been said that there are three things that matter in history: numbers, numbers, and numbers. This also applies to immigration policy. Canada’s immigration policy has historically been geared towards addressing specific needs, such as the settling of the prairies by Eastern European immigrants in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Immigration has
