I got this via email from a friend. Nothing could be simpler. An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before but had once failed an entire class. That class had insisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one [...]
Between my non political day job in technical sales and my political volunteering, I shake A LOT of hands. And I mean A LOT. And in shaking so many hands, I have come to the conclusion that there is one specific type of handshake that I really dislike. And that is the “shortshake”. For those [...]

There are apparently video and/or photos taken with a hidden camera of two smoking lounges located in the CBC’s Toronto facilities. Smoking lounges with nice, comfy sofas and ashtrays packed [...]
As I mentioned on February 5th, David Suzuki will be buying his way out of environmental Hell. The foundation estimates the bus alone might produce about 20 tonnes of CO2. It is paying up to $35 per tonne to offset these emissions. Whoop – Deee – Dooo. They are compensating for the CO2 emissions to [...]
