Why I’m renouncing my membership in the PC Party of Ontario

July 2024 One of the things that has become very, very apparent is how far from classical liberalism the Liberal Party of Canada has drifted, to the almost cult-like following of Dear Leader, Justin Trudeau. Supporters seem incapable of acknowledging how far Trudeau has strayed from true liberal values and into a socialist worship cult, …

Not with a bang, but a whimper

July 2024 Well, University of Toronto, you have been proven to be massive chumps!

Not much Pride in Toronto

Published in the Toronto Sun, 7 July 2024 Is it just me, or do others see the irony in the fact for the second time in recent years, the Pride Parade was literally stopped in its tracks by a competing protest movement? Pride began as a protest movement advocating for the rights of the gay …

July 2024 The Auld Kirk Scotch Settlement is long-gone, leaving only the Presbyterian Church, which sat abandoned for over half a century.

The Dupont Street building where Ford once built their legendary Model T

July 2024 Despite what some believe Henry Ford and the Ford motor company weren’t the ones who created the gas powered automobile. That distinction goes to Carl Benz, who created the first gas powered automobile in 1885, fifteen years after a small gas powered motor was placed on a car, proving it could be used …

Toronto Councilors Moise and Carroll are calling opponents of “Sankofa Square” racist

June 2024 First it was Councilor Chris Moise at a public meeting, now it’s Councilor Shelley Carroll who displayed an appallingly high level of chutzpah in scolding those opposed to renaming Young-Dundas Square to Sankofa Square as racists in off-air discussions with Newstalk 1010 show hosts John Moore Show and Jerry Agar.  At the Toronto Council …

Pride has become way too political

June 2024 Re: “Forcing Pride on Catholic schools isn’t diversity” (Brian Lilley, Toronto Sun, 15 June): Although I’m conservative, I’m socially liberal on many topics, including issues related to the gay community.
