Muslims vs.

Mark says the West has got to stop providing luxury accommodations for the terrorists, and start realizing that this is a worldwide war.

And whatever one’s opinion of the various local conflicts around the world—Muslims vs. Buddhists in Thailand, Muslims vs. Hindus in Kashmir, Muslims vs. Jews in the Holy Land, Muslims vs. Russians in Chechnya, Muslims vs. Christians in Africa—the fact is the jihad has held out a long time against very tough enemies. If you’re not shy about taking on the Israelis and Russians, why wouldn’t you fancy your chances against the Belgians and Spaniards?

The rest of the story

A little ditty on recycling and Harry Potter, and how you may think you’re doing your environmental best, when you really are not.

So, Greenpeace International is urging us all to waste resources, become marginally poorer, in pursuit of their particular vision of the world. How nice of them to do that for us.

So little has changed

I can’t be the only one wondering if this should be the end of NASA…all that money and time spent, and the same problems are occurring with the latest shuttle?

That dirty devil

So that’s what Santa’s doing in the off season.

Surrounded by young female Santa Claus assistants, a Swedish Santa takes a swim during the annual Santa Claus World Congress in Copenhagen

Such problems

Ok people, it’s either pay no PST and live in Alberta or head to Norway.

A boom in oil revenues flowing into the country can, for example, make political quarrels over pension plans moot, leave Norway with no economic incentive to join the European Union, and literally provide “money for everything.”

Where’s the gun registry now?

More proof that the wild west here in Toronto with daily daytime shootings are in no way affected by our billion dollar gun registry.

“There were five shootings, at different locations in the city. The victims are known to police. It

seems clear, at this stage, that the shootings are not connected and that they are retaliatory in

nature. A number of the victims are not co?operating with investigators; others are being less

than helpful. None of the injuries is believed to be life?threatening.

What say the Liberals now about their useless gun strategy?

Predictably, Mayor Miller has no answers, so he simply lashes out at America.

Toronto’s Mayor David Miller is blaming the gun violence in Canada’s largest city to “lax” gun laws in the United States.

Fjordman: The Second Fall of Rome?

Here’s a post you won’t find in mainstream media.

Is it a coincidence that the last time we had migrations like this was when large parts of the European continent suffered a complete civilizational breakdown? Is that what we are witnessing now? The second fall of Rome?

Makes far more sense than any of the pablum in today’s newspapers.

I suspect it will take some local bombs to rouse the Canadian psyche.

Take a break

If you’re in the Toronto area and need a great place to get away from it all and jump in a lake, check out this lovely resort. Family run for 75 years, they must be doing something right.

The best part about it is the food, and the lack of telephones or internet.  A great disconnect.

Bankrupt the drug companies

…and eat healthy foods.

For the first 5000 years of civilization, humans relied on foods and herbs for medicine. Only in the past 50 years have we forgotten our medicinal “roots” in favor of patent medicines. While pharmaceuticals have their value, we should not forget the well-documented, non-toxic and inexpensive healing properties of whole foods. The following list is but a sampling of the health benefits from whole foods.

Overpaid bottle baggers

Nice work if you can get it.

Full-time LCBO employees make up to $21.80 per hour.

Apparently Ontarians don’t mind overpaying retail clerks, since they’re already used to overpaying for their alcohol.

Health care review

Mark has some words on the latest judicial activists ruling on private health care, and another gem following it on the Conserative party’s complete dropping of the ball on the issue.

Hand them the knife

More stating the obvious from our solo crusader – the Limousine Liberals will take the multicult road to the very (dead) end.

It has been sobering this past week watching some of my “woollier” colleagues (in Vicki Woods’s self-designation) gradually awake to the realisation that the real suicide bomb is “multiculturalism”.

Read, Weep, Trash

Another report costing a fortune, telling us what we already know, and the government throws it on the scrap heap.

The Ontario government should get out of the booze business by selling its liquor agency and allowing grocers and other big retailers to sell alcohol, says a report calling for sweeping changes to the system.

Ideology over common sense.  Well, at least they didn’t break a promise over it.

Back to stone age

I often thought the same thing as Mike did here.

If we are told not to use our water and electricity when we most need them, doesn’t this make you think that maybe, just maybe, the government is not doing a fantastic job managing our utilities?

All the scarcity issues are really government caused…it’s time for a new way of thinking.

Old enemies surface

It’s odd in today’s modern age to read a story of an enemy kamikaze (suicide bomber).

The U.S. warships were so close that Toshio Yoshitake could see the black puffs of anti-aircraft-gun smoke wafting up from the blue sea below. Flying over the Leyte Gulf in the Philippines, he figured that in another 20 minutes he would be upon them and, in a ball of fire, fulfil his duty.

What’s even more odd is that he was involved in a battle where my grandfather’s ship was sunk.
