"Speak up for freedom of speech, not just for you but for everyone else, especially those with whom you disagree. Although the forces arrayed against speech are formidable, do not despair. Their censorship will be their everlasting shame. Your defense of freedom of speech will be to your everlasting credit. It may be the most important thing you...

"Liberty not only means that the individual has both the opportunity and the burden of choice; it also means that he must bear the consequences of his actions and will receive praise or blame for them. Liberty and responsibility are inseparable." ~ F. A. Hayek ~

The Muslim Association of Canada has just announced the 'Canadian Islamic College' (CIC) has been accredited. These Islamic Primary Sources are inconsistent with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and neither do they comport with the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Did the people responsible for the necessary approvals have any idea...

The Conservative MP for Calgary-Nose Hill doesn't think much of the Carney appointment: "There should be no way in hell that Mr. Carney — who, as Chair of Brookfield, would have a direct personal interest in a new Brookfield run multi-billion dollar fund — should be acting as the prime minister's key economic adviser while his company is reportedly...

Lawyer Allison Pejovic says, "This case was of paramount importance to all Canadians, and they have been denied the right to know whether the federal government acted lawfully in preventing them from travelling and leaving the country based on their refusal to take a novel medication that failed to prevent transmission of Covid, and that has caused...

Major Russ Cooper (Ret'd) engages a spirited and, sometimes, emotional Brian Peckford over the Supreme Court of Canada's decision to pass on reviewing the onerous, freedom-crushing travel mandates levelled on citizens by the federal government. This heartfelt exchange speaks to the very real possibility that the desires of Canadians are being...

The wrapping to make the horror show that is Bill C-63 more palatable includes regulations against child pornography and online bullying, among other items already covered by the criminal code or that could easily be included as amendments. But the meat of the bill is in the proposed regulations that would crush free speech by empowering the...

"In a democracy, the people must have that kind of freedom which consists in the ability to discuss and deliberate upon every aspect of public affairs. Without this freedom, democracy is but a hollow shell." ~ John Stuart Mills ~

"If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a...

"Socialism/communism appeals to many people because on the surface it is 'so 'fair, compassionate, and kind'. Of course, once you are able to think beyond that of a 5-year-old, you realize that it is the anthesis of fairness, compassion and kindness. It is contrary to human nature, and hence it is always doomed to fail. But like the proverbial...

"This constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but at ensuring that no-one believes anything anymore. A people that can no longer distinguish between truth and lies cannot distinguish between right and wrong. And such a people, deprived of the power to think and judge, is, without knowing and willing it, completely subjected...

This is not, and never has been, a counterinsurgency or counterterrorism operation—It is a conventional urban war against an irregular but fully formed terror army, with their own underground citadel. Yet many Western analysts are incapable of seeing the conflict through anything but the lens of post-9/11 operations. The refrain, echoing official...

"Retain the power of speech no matter what other power you may lose ... Do what you will, but speak out always. Be shunned, be hated, be ridiculed, be scared, be in doubt, but don't be gagged. The time of trial is always. Now is the appointed time." ~ John Jay Chapman, 1900 ~

'You're gonna be so blessed,' said Pastor James Roemke, doing a pretty good Donald Trump impersonation in the warm-up to his Benediction of the Republican National Convention on Monday. 'You're gonna be tired of being blessed, I guarantee it, believe me.' Sitting in the stands with a bandage on his ear, Trump enjoyed the joke – a riff on his...

"When the leaders hate their civilization more than their enemies do, the civilization is doomed. Never before has history witnessed such a gargantuan self-inflicted death of a civilization that was an existential light in an otherwise world of historical darkness. This is precisely why I wrote 'The Parasitic Mind'. Nothing in nature is more...

The offenses that Trump supporters were charged depended on whether they self-incriminated or went to trial. Those who defended themselves received longer sentences. So much for "justice" in America. Those who chose a trial did not have a "jury of their peers." They were judged by a lynch mob egged on by America's whore media, such as the...

"Democracy extends the sphere of individual freedom, socialism restricts it. Democracy attaches all possible value to each man; socialism makes each man a mere agent, a mere number. Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in...

'Queer' is a strange one. Not so long ago, it was solely pejorative. But in recent decades some gays decided to reclaim it for themselves. Not everybody agreed. In time, though, it proved a handy divide. On the one hand were the gays, who just wanted to get on with their lives. On the other hand were the 'queers', who...

Mike Gallagher, the 8th most recognized talk radio personality, in the U.S.A., is heard by over 2.25 million listeners weekly. He compiled and wrote the following essay entitled "Obama: It was You."

"I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind." ~ John Diefenbaker ~

"Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear." ~ Harry S. Truman ~
