And then there was this, December 2024

By J.M. Glover: Do Americans want to have children? According to a Nov. 3 headline in Breitbart.com, “One in three young adults do not have and do not want to have children.” A poll associated with Newsweek found that 30 per cent of Generation Z (those born between 1997 and 2012) and Millennials (born between 1981 and 1996) did not have and [...]

Baseball in not life

Donald DeMarco: I shall begin by enunciating the premise that the life that God has granted us is richer, more meaningful, and more important than any of the gifts we have given ourselves, such as our possessions, our artifacts, our entertainments, and our amusements. We are tempted to believe that the things we enjoy in life are more important than life itself. [...]

Did abortion spoil the World Series?

Victor Penney: Interim writer Victor Penney, Sporting Life Did a pro-life presidential candidate hit a home run when he paid to air graphic Abortion Victim Photography during the World Series?

Reading, learning, and enjoying at Christmastime

Michael Taube: There are many reasons to enjoy the Christmas season. Beautiful trees with tinsel and ornaments. Colourful lights inside and outside our homes. Presents wrapped for family and friends. Movies and television shows for the young - and young at heart. Music and carols heard on the streets and inside churches. And, of course, families, food and faith.      Christmas [...]

Do Christmas movies really matter?

Rick McGinnis: Interim writer, Rick McGinnis, Amusements The Christmas schedule this year on Netflix is the usual avalanche of undistinguished, largely low-star-power romantic comedies with titles like The Merry Gentlemen, Meet Me Next Christmas, and Hot Frosty. Sticking out amidst the rom-coms, evergreen holiday films, and fireplace videos is Mary, a film that tells the story of the Virgin Mary [...]

God in the Cradle

What does Christmas mean for us today, in the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand and Twenty-Four? The decade in which we find ourselves began with a pandemic, and has, since then, seen the rise of significant global turmoil, economic turbulence, and social tensions; in the lather of the last American election—and with a Canadian federal election on the horizon—we can easily [...]

I want the Moon

Josie Luetke: Interim writer, Josie Luetke, Talk Turkey The Liberals and NDP are locking metaphorical horns over which party loves baby-killing more. The NDP calls for improved access to abortion, slams Conservatives for their “anti-choice” sympathies, and criticizes Liberals for insufficient action. The Liberals respond by going after ever-threatening and odious “crisis pregnancy centres,” which audaciously venture to help women [...]

Canada’s Constitution could protect us from globalist tyranny

John Carpay: If globalism means free trade and voluntary cooperation between countries, it can be a good thing. For example, doctors and scientists from different countries can share their research with each other and collaborate on creating life-saving medications. It makes good economic sense to buy coffee and bananas from tropical countries, rather than trying to grow those crops in Canada in [...]

Concerns about bill intended to protect children from pornography

Joanna Alphonso: “The idea that a kid who’s 11, 9, 10 can open his phone, watch all this porn is a public health issue,” said independent Senator Julie Miville Dechêne, who tabled an anti-porn bill in 2021. A shocking article by Fight the New Drug, an anti pornography organization, what was once relatively well-hidden is now seemingly endless and totally accessible online [...]
