Jeepers Creepers

Jeepers, creepers where'd ya get them peepers Jeepers, creepers where'd ya get those eyes Gosh oh, git up how'd they get so lit up Gosh oh, gee oh how'd they get that size (Al Donohue and Johnny Mercer) I've been wondering if Preston Manning, former head of the Reform and Canadian Alliance parties, was whistling this catchy tune in the halls of [...]

Accountability and the UN

Political activists have long been aware of how dangerous the United Nations is to the preservation of traditional values throughout the world, but among the general public it is remarkable how entrenched the mythology of the nice, peace-loving, justice-promoting international entity has become. The recent UN conference on "racism" gave the international organization much greater exposure among the general public than is [...]

More than one attack on U.S.

Today American flags fly from homes, mailboxes, trees, driveways and car aerials. Yellow ribbons representing more than 5,000 people missing and killed in the World Trade Centre disaster are displayed throughout the country. It has been said that if only America would return to prayer the eugenic designs that have surfaced in the nation's policies could be corrected. But Americans have always [...]

God banished from Ottawa services

During the Sept. 14 National Day of Mourning, Prime Minister Jean Chretien said, "Words fail us." Especially one word - God. It was a word that was not uttered during the official ceremonies on Parliament Hill. Many Canadians of faith were appalled by government services that failed to mention anything greater than or outside ourselves, reminiscent of other public ceremonies that expunged [...]

The United Nation’s long history of agitating for anti-life, anti-family policies

What is it about the United Nations that evokes concern among many throughout the world? A review of news and events from recent years, in roughly chronological order, offers a number of possible reasons. Founded in the wake of the devastating Second World War as a way of increasing co-operation, strengthening the flow of communication and averting future widespread conflicts, the UN, [...]

The limits of the UN

Delusions of Grandeur: The United Nations and Global Interventionism, edited by Ted Galen Carpenter (Cato Institute, 1997, $15.95) It would be no exaggeration to say that Canada's elite loves the United Nations. The spirit of Lester B. Pearson is very much alive in the natural governing party, and none of the increasingly irrelevant opposition parties have even suggested Canada should withdraw from [...]

UN needs to be fixed

Created in the wake of World War II, the United Nations has veered far from its intended reason for existence to mediate disputes and foster international co-operation to become a large, overbearing global entity that violates national sovereignty by promoting a radical, socially activist agenda. No longer primarily worried about mediating international disputes, it has engaged in attempts to make policy for [...]

UNESCO flaunts biomedical guidelines

UNESCO's ideology of humanity has been described as a dialectic between freedom of research and respect for the rights of persons on whom the research is conducted. The dialectic is joined to protection against discrimination based on genetic characteristics. The ideology, as described, fails to reach a true understanding of the nature of man as the subject of proposed research. In spite [...]

Uniting Tories and the Canadian Alliance

What is needed today is radical insight into contemporary Canadian reality, in order to clarify exactly how precarious the situation is for 'small-c conservatives,' as well as for left-wing dissidents, from current-day, out-of-control technology and capitalism. The context today is of a Canada ever closer to becoming a post-democratic "one-party dictatorship" of the Liberals. One hopes the realization of the critical shape [...]

Active pro-life MLA

In an era of politicians lacking principles - and ones who outright sellout to the culture of death - Julius Yankowsky is a refreshing departure. Indeed, he's been lauded as a man who "will do anything" to further the pro-life cause, and his actions prove that those are more than just empty words. Yankowsky, 63, is a married father of two and [...]

Tax dollars at work

The dog days of summer allow us a great opportunity to ponder, reflect and generally digest news and information that crosses one's desk as we seek to restore sanity to a culture in love with death. Imagine my excitement when I viewed the latest newsletter of the BC Pro-Choice Action Network. Their Spring/Summer newsletter was jam-packed full of goodies that remind us [...]

Decision a triumph of ethics over politics

Whenever a politician delivers an address, his audience simply assumes that his message is going to be political. So deeply entrenched is this assumption that it prevails even on the relatively rare occasion when a politician delivers an address that is essentially ethical. It is like assuming that your lottery number is never going to be a winner and not noticing, on [...]

Comparing the Tories and the Ontario Coalition

After the Ontario Conservatives' tax credit proposal for private schools was announced many people might be tempted to say that the government has finally seen the light. However we should consider the following. Health. Spending continues to increase, services levels and doctor shortages continue to increase. The Tories have not developed any strategic plan to deal with the costs of health care [...]

Is Canada unremittingly hostile to conservatism?

The situation of the Canadian Alliance illustrates the difficulties small-c conservatives face The news since April 24, 2001, is full of stories about the caucus revolt in the Canadian Alliance against Stockwell Day. Although showing initial promise, Day has gotten himself into a cycle of negativity from which it seems impossible for him to escape. Much of the Canadian Alliance's failure in [...]
