In an article of May 6 in the National Post, Sabrina Maddeaux discussed the recent decision of the Toronto District School Board to eliminate admission criteria based on the skills and accomplishments of applicants to various specialized schools and programs devoted to endeavors such as the Arts, Athletics, etc.. The board’s goal being “equitable” access …

Myron Lee Jacobs, resident of a homeless encampment in Seattle, was arrested in April for the violent rape of a woman. As the King County’s Prosecuting Attorney’s office had not yet filed charges by April 28, the date of his second hearing, he was, as the law required, released. Three days later he raped again, …
Among his justifications for invoking the Emergencies Act, Justin Trudeau cited an early February CBC report which suggested a good deal of the funding for the Freedom Convoy had come from foreign sources seeking to undermine the Liberal government. Pushing the same narrative, the Hamilton Spectator, which is owned by the conspicuously biased Toronto Star, …
That the Left is ranting hysterically over Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter is both absurd and ironic. In fact the hysteria in question validates the very reason for his purchase. In a recent Tweet, Musk declared: “I strongly supported Obama for president, but today’s Democratic Party has been hijacked by extremists.” Feeling that that extremism …
In rummaging through my heaps of newspaper clippings, I recently came across an opinion piece by Doug Saunders on the state of Western Democracies published in the Globe and Mail on Dec. 18 last year.

Republican Senator Ted Cruz exclaimed as follows: The utter shamelessness of MSNBC to say this with a straight …
On Friday, April 22, Dr. Leslyn Lewis, who is vying to become leader of the Conservative Party, appeared at a rally in Mississauga, Ontario, just a few miles outside Toronto. David Menzies of The Rebel was there and asked her to comment on the CBC’s coverage of the “freedom convoy.” Agreeing with Menzies that it …
A few days ago Fox News’ Tucker Carlson spoke extensively about the rampant disrespect for the Rule of Law evident in many American cities. Odd, he suggested, that car accidents involving young Blacks spiked significantly after George Floyd’s death in 2020, when, because of Covid, there were significantly fewer cars on the road! Is it …
On April 21, Candace Malcolm’s True North included a discussion of Bills C-10 and 11, the Liberals’ recent attempts to censor online content here in Canada. Candace is intelligent, articulate, rational, and utterly devoid of any of the vile characteristics constantly flung at the Right by the mindless Left. She is also, by the way, …
I have cited elsewhere how Joe Biden was caught plagiarizing in university and then again as he sought his party’s nomination in 1988. While many in the press declared his political career over at that point, he has of course come back to haunt his homeland. In his 2020 presidential debates he said he had …
