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."

Home schooling
Home birthing
If you want to save your children … walk away.
Our society and culture have become a shitshow playground of mental patients. The LGBTQueer-mutants are a pox on our society.
my kid left the public high school opted for the catholic high school (much to my relief) maintained some old friends made lots of new. graduation with a scholarship.
the traditional values thing very big then and there. now who knows.
Congrats Kritter … good move.
My daughter knows my standing offer … as soon as her pubic schools start teaching my grandkids the special pleasures of LGBTQueer-mutant sex … I’ll pay for their Catholic school. But she lives in a very conservative corner of Orange County and that hasn’t happened yet.
While I can agree to the notion of wanting to put up a protective barrier for one’s young children, that isn’t going to save anyone in the long run. In fact, it may give people a false sense of security.
Eventually one’s children have to go out into the very society one is trying to protect them from. At some point they have to know how to operate and survive in it…or they won’t when it eventually comes knocking at their door.
Be sensible about age/capacity appropriateness, but talk to your children and also listen to them.
Above all else, do not try to shelter them from the existence of evil because you will fail.
Agreed. Christ said that we live IN the world but warned not to become OF the world. I have taken your position for most of my adult life. I talked to my children about their schooling. I read their textbooks and discussed the shocking omissions from those books and helped them get a much fuller education. Two of my three children grew up to be wildly successful in their careers and as parents. They’re conservative (logical and rational) to the core … my other child smoked lots and lots of marijuana that scrambled his brain, annd destroyed his life. Enough said.
But it appears as though things are getting worse and worse … esp. post-COVID. LOOK at the education statistics being discussed in Congress now. High schoolers graduating only 25% proficient in math … only 31% proficient in English. It’s ridiculous. Our public schools aren’t educating our students … our newcomer 3rd world students.
The Limits of Tolerance.
The boundaries of sanity have been so severely breached that some are now celebrating mental illness and handing out awards for it. ABC news exhibited similar “tolerance” Tuesday, when they tried to humanize the murderer of Charlie Kirk by waxing eloquent about “his” or “its” touching communication with a similarly deranged roomie. Seeing groupies for Luigi Mangione filling the courtroom, I’m not sure this genie ever goes back in the bottle.
Years ago there were standards imposed by governments for those who wanted to adopt kids.
My parents adopted me at birth as after being married for 4 years they were seeing all their friends start families and didn’t want to be left behind. They were told they’d been approved to adopt a boy who would be born in June, and my mom (my adoptive mom, and she’ll always be my real mom) became pregos right after that, so my sister was born 8 months after me, and another sister a year later. Mom then lost 4 boys in 5 years (2 delivered alive and died at 1 day, 2 born stillborn at full term) from 1963-1968 due to Rh+ / Rh- conflict which is now apparently taken care of routinely. They didn’t want to go through that anymore so they adopted another girl born in north Sask. and a few years later had a boy of their own who lived, born in 1976. While our family had plenty of issues to resolve, none of them compare to what having normal children being raised by dysfunctional people would entail.
As we used to say, “there ought to be a law…”
Kids weren’t given to people with mental issues. These people, these people with their garbage “gender dysphoria” and completely unprepared for the actual challenges of having children full time in their lives…
have no business taking children into their demented world.
God Bless your parents for adopting you and raising/parenting such a large family. We have tragically inverted that natural, biological, impulse.
And they obviously raised you well.
I like stories like yours. It makes me think of a time in the not-too-distant past when really good people were not a rare commodity.
Could someone please check on Pete Buttigieg’s kid?
