John Carpay: Devyn Cousineau is a very woke panelist of the BC Human Rights Tribunal, empowered by law to punish people who disagree with transgender ideology. In February 2026, she ordered former Chilliwack school board trustee Barry Neufeld to pay $750,000 to some gay teachers. In September 2026, Cousineau ordered Dr. Henry Ajaero to pay $20,000 to “Child Q” for refusing to [...]
From the editor’s desk: Global Updates reported on the parliamentary victory for Alliance for Germany (AdF), which is invariably referred to as “far right” or “extremist,” in the eastern state of Saxony-Anhalt: “Alice Weidel becomes the first leader in the world who is anti-immigration but has an immigrant wife, is anti-LGBTQ+ but is a lesbian herself, opposes LGBT adoption but has adopted [...]
Victor Penney: I’ve never been a fan of the Women’s National Basketball Association, but it’s been difficult to ignore lately and for all the wrong reasons. There has been a slew of wild headlines surrounding the league and the best way to summarize everything boils down to two words: dumpster fire. This is a serious problem for the WNBA because if the [...]
Donald Demarco: There is nothing higher, for many athletes, than winning a gold medal at the Olympics. Some have said that they would give up ten years of their life if they could accomplish such a feat. This kind of exchange, however, downplays the significance of the gratitude we should have for being alive for an entire decade. Should gratitude bow to [...]
Victor Penney: Summer’s lease on my sports brain hath all too short a date. I shifted into September-mode at the end of July, back when NFL training camps were getting underway. What can I say? The call to fall is strong, but the truth is, I’m still thinking about the other football. There were so many memorable moments from the World Cup, [...]
Rick McGinnis: Interim writer, Rick McGinnis, Amusements The worst part of living through the era of doomscrolling, AI slop and endless, valueless content is getting to witness the final, pyrrhic triumph of the pundit. News and information overwhelm us with little in the way of filters except for the ever-mutating algorithm and its indifferent, inscrutable need to either enrage us [...]
Josie Luetke: On May 10, 2023, Campaign Life Coalition planned to display abortion victim photography during its National March for Life press conference, but the Parliamentary Protective Service (PPS) prohibited us from doing so. I was aghast—how could we be allowed to display the same signs on the city sidewalk, but not on Parliament Hill? Of all places to protest in the [...]
Rory Leishman: It is remarkable how progressive leaders of the fast-dwindling Anglican, Lutheran, Presbyterian, and United churches of Canada are so determined to wipe out what few sparks of vibrant, theologically orthodox life still remain within their respective denominations. Thus, in June, leaders of the Anglican Church of Canada released a set of Pastoral Liturgies at the Time of Death in Contexts [...]
From the editor’s desk: Research Connections published a study, supplemented by further study by researchers at the Manhattan Institute, that examined insurance data for minors aged 8-17 between 2016 and 2023 in Oregon, one of the most progressive states in the U.S. They found that one in 240 girls and one in 630 boys received cross-sex hormones to treat gender-confused youth and [...]
Josie Luetke: When I was still a high school student, my dad pointed out to me Campaign Life Coalition national president Jim Hughes, unassumingly standing at the back of a Halton Pro-Life event. I don’t think he spoke; I think he just attended because he was available, and his heart lay with this cause. He quickly grew fond of me (I believe), [...]
Donald DeMarco: Tulsi Gabbard stated, in her May 22 letter of resignation, that she has quit her post as the Director of National Intelligence. Her husband, Abraham, had been recently diagnosed with an extremely rare form of bone cancer. “At this time,” she wrote, “I must step away from public service to be by his side and fully support him through this [...]
Victor Penney: All things work for the good of those who love God, for those who are called according to His purpose – even baseball and blasphemous drag performers who mock Catholic nuns. What am I getting at? Well, in this case, it has to do with an undercover exposé by the O’Keefe Media Group, an organization founded by James O’Keefe, the [...]
Rory Leishman: In the remarkable case of Ahluwalia v. Ahluwalia on May 15, the judgment of the Supreme Court of Canada was subjected to devastating criticism by a significant authoritative source, namely, three dissenting judges on the same court. The case arose out of divorce proceedings initiated by Amrit Pal Singh Ahluwalia in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. The trial judge, [...]
Interim writer, Rick McGinnis, Amusements Rick McGinnis Lost in the Cosmos: The Last Self-Help Book by Walker Percy When the writer Walker Percy wrote to explain why he converted to Catholicism for the forward of a book about Catholic converts, he began by stating that “my tradition was scientific.” Born into a Presbyterian but essentially agnostic Southern family and trained [...]
Rick McGinnis: A nagging question has been percolating through what passes for the conservative movement these days: What, if anything, has conservatism conserved? At its finest point the question asks what conservative politicians and governments have succeeded in preserving – in society and domestic policy, never mind in economics and foreign policy? But essentially, it’s a question about just what conservatism means [...]
