Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Reminds me of Lenin’s and then Stalin’s war on Christians and the churches. It also began with denigration and theatrical comedy. The next stage is legal harassment.
This is actually quite sinister. You can bet that none of the positives will come out in that story. And since some of the negatives will just be typical of a bad school experience, the eventual piece will likely just distort the picture. Would he do the same regarding Muslim schools? Now, I am speculating about his intentions, but it does not look entirely above board to me.
When did the media become purely a platform to share the leftist political and social agenda?
Need new libel laws and now.
How much legal liability has the CBC exposed Canadian taxpayer to with their reckless reporting?
The main student (Sandmann) family has hired the lawyer who successfully sued for the JonBenet Ramsey family, the falsely accused security guard Richard Jewell (Atlanta Olympics) among others. Canada actually has weak libel, slander laws as Ezra Levant knows from his comment about Soros. CBC better make an abject apology, admit their total error, and no half assed sorry if anyone was offended BS
You are absolutely correct about the libel laws needing updating.
The ultimate irony is that kids who graduate from Catholic and Christian schools are FAR BETTER educated than anyone with a diploma from a US Public School. The Christian School curriculum hasn’t been infected by “Common Core” or any other PC mind control. Add to that the kids who are Home Schooled are even BETTER EDUCATED than the diploma mills known as public schools. The public school curriculum has been dumbed down into a pathetically incomplete sketchy jumble of nonsensical propaganda force-fed to our children. The Public schools are doing to America’s children what Adolph only dreamed of accomplishing.
I suspect this NYT’s writer is desperately protecting his position and power from those much smarter and better educated than himself. Oh … and I am willing to bet he’s also a Pffagh who is now “married” to his butt-buddy and just showing his … LGBTQqUtoo LOVE … for all people. *cough* *cough*
@Kenji, I hail from the Pittsburgh area, before immigrating to Canada. The Pittsburgh area has a high Catholic representation (I graduated from Duquesne University, the Catholic university in Pittsburgh), given lots of historical immigration from Eastern and Southern Europe. Anyways, way back then some of the public high schools were (are?) dangerous and poorly-run, so much so that non-Catholic parents would fork over lots of dough to send their kids to Catholic schools. The kids got a safe and superior education there.
P.s., the U.S. has a history of anti-Catholicism, from the extremist right. But now days the hatred comes from the extremist left, like the New York Times.
And David, I am a hard core, right wing, Fundamentalist (I guess?) Protestant Christian … who adores Catholics, Catholic Schools, and even mean-faced Nuns! There’s not enough doctrinal difference between my personal beliefs and the Catholic Church to quibble over. Worship Mother Mary? No. Admire Her? Sure. No big deal.
PS … Notre Dame covering the Columbus Murals? WTH is WRONG with Catholic Colleges today? They’ve all become leftist indoctrination factories! You should consider yourself LUCKY to get a high quality education from Duquesne … before it was taken over by the PC brigade. Or has your alma mater resisted the malaise?
“Worship Mother Mary? No. Admire Her? Sure. No big deal.”
Catholics don’t worship the Blessed Virgin Mary. Worship is reserved for God.
We venerate her, as we do all saints. Ditto for the Orthodox Church.
do you not pray to her?
What was best today, Stone’s perp walk or Trump’s capitulation?
Looking forward to the ALL CAPS.
Yeah … I should ABANDON Trump completely. No … that is how the GOPe or LEFTIST goofs would have me react. I shall WAIT. Stone’s “arrest” is a JOKE. So he told Trump what Assange had already broadcast to the entire world? That he would be dropping HER files in bunches. Meh. And am I surprised the GOPe folded like a cheap suit? Hardly. I heard the capitulation yesterday in a speech by McCain’s best buddy, that odd Senator who have never married.
Do learn how to state a thesis and then support it with sourced facts and in complete sentences using correct spelling and punctuation.
More … hard hitting … reporting by Dan Levin … Canadian-style
https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/14/world/canada/canada-gay-curling-leagues.html
Gays only curling?
I thought the last generation of activists were all about bringing Big Gay into the mainstream working to prevent that sort of segregation.
I must admit that a gay curling team named Fruit of the Broom is inventive.
When the match is over … they drop their Fruit of the Looms … and curl up with each other. I amuse myself.
Well, curlers do get their rocks off……….
Lol
You know, if a person wanted to go all Dexter on the MSMs @$$, this is the kind of enterprise that would suit them perfectly. Kinda surprised no one’s starting hunting these people yet, tbh. There’s got to be at least ONE crazed, stalking anti-MSM serial killer out there. What? No? You mean all that garbage they write abiut white guys isn’t true after all?
Let me guess: he wants to “prove” that turning the other cheek, like what happened with that drumming Viet Nam “vet”, is “triggering” and “racist”, right?
Phillips and the sycophantic band of ignoramuses that is the mediocracy expected the kid to turn the other ear drum.
Comments on the American Conservative site suggest that many Americans have reached their limit. I don’t blame them. America is no longer an open, free and morally Christian nation (that is espousing Christian values). I think it is close to being a nation of psychopaths.
It’s really, really ugly, purely a creation of the media I believe.
Obama’s ‘get in their faces’ rhetoric has backfired and has driven an awakening.
Ya wanna know why Christian Schools are suddenly in the crosshairs? VP Spence’s wife has taken a teaching position at a Christian School.
Not too hard to connect a few dots there…

Notice how a school that simply promotes values outside the leftie box is not pro – anything, but rather, anti-lgbtq
Sorry…Make that Pence.
The Democrat Party is the anti-Christian party.
This is the one position all the bizarro groups who make up the Party agree on.
Waiting for Pelosi/Schumer to condemn this…
I am sure as a “professional Journalist” Mr Dan Levin will respect the privacy of any foolish enough to respond to his agenda driven posting…
However under modern Journalistic standards I know he will not only ignore any real responses but can be relied upon to created correspondence that backs up the article he has already written….Evil Catholic predators…
See I have/have created proof.
Or will it be the anonymous sources say…..
I still have faith in journalistic ethics…
Noticing intensifies…
i used to live less than a block away from Calgary Christian school. To be honest I would have rather gone there than the public school 5 blocks away. The students I met there in the playground seemed better mannered and friendlier too.
@Nold.
Internet WINNER of the Day…!!
“Fruit of the Broom”
Priceles…LMAO.
note the ONLY place leftoids demand perfection is that sector which freely admits early on we are NOT capable of anything resembling it, our Saviour (from ourselves) is our only hope.
irony abounds in the pc era eh?
The North American left need a new logo and I would suggest crossed shovels. One shovel represents that they are continually digging for any kind of dirt on what or who they disagree with and the second shovel represents what they’ll beat us with once they dig something up.
As the owner of a vending company I had vending machines in a christian university and a christian high school. I can tell you without a doubt that the students, for the most part, were the most polite, honest and respectful kids I had ever come in contact with. One of my more interesting stories is that I had serviced a snack machine and forgot to lock it. When I returned some days later I noticed that someone had removed some product and left the money on the inside floor of the machine. Another time at the same institution the machine “jackpotted”(spit out all the coins in the change maker).Some student collected in all and notified me.
On the other hand I had a machine at a secular institution that malfunctioned allowing product to be dispensed without paying for it.When I got there the machine was EMPTY.
For some measured analysis of the outcome of the differing school systems I would recommend investigating the work done by Cardus. They admittedly come from a Christian world view but their research is peer reviewed and willing entered into the market place of ideas for scrutiny.
Notice that Levin’s aim is to destroy the only schools that provide safe environments and sound education in some of the worst inner city neighborhoods, at an affordable tuition.
This lack of concern for black children’s future is absolutely racist, but then, that’s the heart of the criminal conspiracy that masquerades as the “ democratic” party.
“You people have no idea, no idea at all, what you are calling forth in this country.”
Oh, but they do.
Do you think they don’t dream of the happy day they can toast the downfall of western civilization with the blood of the last Christian?
Have the rest of you noticed that a page has been turned in the Leftist Playbook? Their new attitude is that it is no longer acceptable to have conservative or libertarian views or Christian beliefs. Possessing any of the above now qualifies you for absolute destruction by the “woke” mob. They are serious and they are not going to back down.
I don’t know why, but Dan Levin’s tweet, coming from a Jew doesn’t sit well with me. And my wife, who is Jewish, shares my opinion.
Talk about tone deaf and insensitive……..
