Paul Tuns: The medical journal Family Practice published a report co-authored by nine researchers led by Wendy V.

By Mark Wegierski: Thoughtful conservatives in Canada face a dilemma. Already in 1965, in his famous book, Lament for a Nation: The Defeat of Canadian Nationalism, Canadian traditionalist philosopher George Parkin Grant had pointed to the “impossibility of conservatism” in Canada. His writings have proved increasingly prophetic. Nevertheless, there are some thoughtful conservatives left in Canada, who could be called “George Grant’s [...]
Stalin was, of course, right about statistics; Pro-life Canadians are all too familiar with our country’s notorious social liberalism. Canada’s abortion policy is one of the most permissive in the world; our country was among the very first to dispense with the traditional definition of marriage; our scant protections against euthanasia erode further every year; and our laws don’t make minimal moral [...]

If convicted, Whatcott had faced a possible two-year jail term. Whatcott was charged with a hate [...]
By John Carpay: A friend of mine, a priest I have known for 32 years, recently told me to stop complaining about vaccine passports and various lockdown measures (masks, anti-social distancing, etc.) because they exist for the common good and are intended to save lives.
