Scarborough is being left behind, and one only has to take a quick look at the numbers to understand the unequal conditions that are giving rise to these forms of gang violence. According to United Way statistics, from 1981 to 2001, there's been a 136.6 per cent growth in poor families in Scarborough. As of 2001, 83 per cent of poor families are families of colour, while 64 per cent are immigrant .... |

The Fox News article claims that while the scientific community worries about greenhouse gas emissions contributing to global warming, a new Auburn University study s .... |

My 20-minute video HOW TO JUMP START YOUR WAR is a satirical look at the four similar deceptive protocols used to start each of the last four big international wars: World War Two, Korea, Vietnam, and Iraq.
Most people of all political stripes do not like being swindled, and this animated and historical video is about giving college and high schoo .... |

(NaturalNews) -- Genetically engineered foods will "feed the world," say Bill Gates and all the rest of the GMO pushers. GM crops are the result of "high-tech agriculture" and "advanced technology" created by super-smart agricultural geniuses who only enhance the properties of food crops. GMOs are better than God, better than Mother Nature, and one of the great gifts of science to .... |

In the Commission report that bears his name, and in all of his media appearances since its release, Banker Don Drummond has ably played the disinterested expert, taking no pleasure in sharing the “gloomy message” he has for Ontario.
From the way most TV hosts and journalists have rushed forward to uncritically and sycophantically amplify not only Drummond’s report but the details of his pr .... |

Full disclosure: I’m much, much more socially liberal that the average bear. I won’t get into specifics about certain policy positions – but let’s just say that I fail to see how a little lightening up could do anything but help a society.
Having said that, I believe that you can be pretty socially conservative and still see that Facebook really needs to lighten up when it comes to nudity .... |

Anyone who has wondered why raves or pans on Facebook, Yelp or YouTube are both so numerous and unreliable has probably suspected the awful truth — armies of posters are paid to praise or pan.
Ironically, this practice — which pervades the entire internet — has been best ventilated in censored China where it is known as the Internet Water Army because it can “flood” the internet with po .... |

When René Lévesque formed a Parti Québécois government in 1976, Mr. Lévesque did not, all of a sudden, declare Quebec to be a sovereign country, based upon a provincial election result. Yet, this is exactly the kind of scam our current Prime Minister is seeking to perpetrate, based upon getting a “majority government“ result.
Mr. Lévesque respected democracy enough, to h .... |

I would like to congratulate the Globe and Mail’s John Ibbitson in writing the article “Border deal a hard barrier for Harper’s critics to cross,” that was published on Sunday, November 27, 2011.
Mr. Ibbitson appears to stand out, in general, as a journalist of great integrity, in a Canadian media world dominated by sell-outs. Mr. Ibbiston stands out, in sharp contrast, to the a .... |

Who should get Libya’s fabulous oil and gas wealth, an amount that could be equivalent to several million dollars per Libyan? With NATO supposed to be leaving Libya soon, the West should prepare for the aftermath. The coming chaotic months will see infighting, and perhaps a renewal of civil war, among the many rival tribal and ideological groups. The West should now consider whether to infl .... |

According to David Frum’s article “Europe is down to two choices if it wants to save the euro” published in the National Post, the Eurozone must be saved, along with the Euro. He specifically writes that breaking up the Euro would “be an economic disaster, and not only for the poorer countries of southern Europe.”
My question is, since when did Mr. Frum who is a Canadian who no .... |

It’s inconspicuous, even humble, just about the size of a tall two-car garage off a parking lot, near the larger buildings that make up St. Michael’s College. On the summer day I visit, the diminutive coach house where Marshall McLuhan once worked has been temporarily cleared of most of its furniture and umpteen books. There is just a sole remaining intimation that McLuhan spent the last decad .... |

In the view of the notable historian William Shirer and many others, it has been established "beyond a reasonable doubt" that on Feb. 27, 1933, a team of Hitler's commandos fanned out through the Reichstag building (the German parliament), using incendiary fluids to quickly touch off a massive blaze. Before the fire had died down, Hitler proclaimed that the outrage must have been the responsibilit .... |
