Thursday, December 20th, 2007It would seem that the secular-progressive multi-cultural movement has struck another blow against common sense.
One of the more popular Christmas songs is getting a slight retooling by an Ottawa elementary school choir so as not to offend any students.
The teachers leading the Elmdale Public School choir — made up of Grade 2 and 3 students [...]
It Seems Everything is Somebody’s Fault These Days
Saturday, December 15th, 2007For most of us, the War of 1812 ended a long time ago. However, there seems to be many people who try blame everything on the Americans, and I’ve never really understood the reason for their hate.
This past week, I had occasion to visit a local restaurant where we had a conversation with a waitress who [...]
Be Proud of Your Canadian Flag!
Wednesday, December 12th, 2007By Dave Hodson | July 1, 2007
During the days leading up to Canada Day, I asked my readers and fellow bloggers to submit photos of their Canadian Flags. Below is a collection of the photos I received, along with some interesting stories about them.

With most of the facts now revealed, the story is winding down. James Moore did nothing wrong and Irene Mathyssen made a false accusation. However, I still continue to read [...]
What a Waste of Time
Wednesday, December 5th, 2007About a week ago, I posted on the issue of Reverend Jo Sorrill being denied a renewal of her vanity license plate “REV JO”.
This was an insane case of political correctness being applied to the extreme. Some bureaucrats felt that “REV JO” was (a) promoting dangerous driving, (b) promoting Christianity, and (c) promoting drinking. What [...]
When Will It End?
Tuesday, December 4th, 2007I’ve just returned from clearing the driveway, again.  It certainly looks like we’ll have a white Christmas this year!
It’s only December 3, and already I’ve used as much gas in the snowblower as I used the previous two winters combined.
