Trump Derangement Syndrome continues

September 2017 While I’m not a Trump supporter, I’m not against him either.  I’m still hopeful he will have a successful presidency, because if America loses, we all lose.  I also hope Trump doesn’t do anything to harm the great trading relationship between Canada and the United States. Despite all the hateful rhetoric from the …

The danger of judging the past using today’s morals and standards

August 2017 In the wake of the violence at the Unite the Right Rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, I unequivocally condemn the racism and violence of white racist groups like the KKK, neo-Nazis and white nationalists, just like I condemn racism from all ethnic groups and races. The focus of the protest originated out of a …

The Khadr quandary – Justice must be seen to be done

July 2017 There have been no shortage of opinions on the recent payment and apology to admitted terrorist Omar Khadr. While it may be a legal reality that Khadr’s Charter rights were violated and some form of compensation is inevitable, hasn’t stopped 71% of Canadians from disagreeing with Trudeau’s decision to apologize and pay Khadr …

Canada rewards terrorists – Omar Khadr to be given $10.5 million

July 2017 It’s an utter disgrace that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau would even consider giving Omar Khadr $10.5 million and an official apology, let alone actually doing it. This of course, was done quickly and paid in just two weeks after a secret deal was negotiated with, according to a government leak, the intention of sheltering the …

So much for Trump being a fascist dictator

29 April 2017 Re:  “When all else fails, blame Canada” (Lorne Gunter, April 25): Thanks to those suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome, the mainstream liberal media has been full of hyperbolic rhetoric calling Trump a fascist and comparing him to Hitler. As Gunter points out, Trump has failed so far in his efforts to replace Obamacare, …

Published in the Toronto Sun, 30 March 2017 Re TDSB ban on new trips to U.S. political correctness gone mad (Sue-Anne Levy, March 27): Do the TDSB play political games?  Let me count the ways.  Generally if you have ALL your required documents and no criminal convictions, you will have no problems crossing the border.

Electoral reform is dead, and not a moment too soon

February 2017 I’m not going to criticize Justin Trudeau for backing down on election reform, which I believe was the right thing to do.  He apparently listened to those telling him there was no general desire for changing a system which has served us well for 150 years, which is how democracy works. What I …
