And you thought only the Union Jack could really offend people…
Apparently, the Maple Leaf is too vile to be displayed as well.
No word yet on what exactly was so offensive about it.

Another Sign Idea for the Protesters Outside Steyn’s BC Show Trial
Thu May 29, 2008 – 10:17 am
One word.
“SILENCE!”
If that doesn’t catch the uninformed’s attention about what is being done inside the hearing room by BC’s Human Rights Commission, I can’t imagine what will.
Maybe stick it under that spooky OBEY face.
Side-note to make clear what’s at stake - before even finding in favour or against, Mark Steyn could be banned from ever […]
Gomery complains over delay in Mulroney-Schreiber inquiry
Thu May 29, 2008 – 9:30 am
Gomery is making a big mistake if he thinks Canadians want to pay high-priced professionals to hear some more he-said she-said. If Gomery wants an inquiry, he is free to go make an honest living as an investigative journalist on his own.
It was a different story, said Judge Gomery, when former Liberal […]
Elvis to Olympians: Take a stand
Wed May 28, 2008 – 11:44 am
Sure, Elvis Stojko may seem to be telling the young ones to forego benefits that he enjoyed in the past but his opinion is still valid. He is not telling them to boycott but rather to take a stand. He wants them to be a little more aware of the context in which they […]
Global Warming and Vaclav Klaus - Blue Planet in Green Shackles
Wed May 28, 2008 – 8:18 am
Here is a snippet of Vaclav Klaus’s presentation of the book “Blue Planet in Green Shackles”, at the National Press Club, in Washington D.C.:
It is in the hands of climatologists and other related scientists who are highly motivated to look in one direction only because a large number of academic careers has evolved around the […]
The company you keep
Wed May 28, 2008 – 7:06 am
Contrary to the childish detractors, I applaud Goodyear for firing this gal. I have to bet that she knew damn well she was doing something wrong because there are more than enough laws in this country to make it incredibly difficult to fire an employee even with just cause. Nobody should take […]
Carbon Ration Cards - Considered “ahead of its time” by British Government
Tue May 27, 2008 – 1:35 pm
Forget about personal ID, just wait till a Bobby catches you without your carbon ration card.
Every adult should be forced to use a ‘carbon ration card’ when they pay for petrol, airline tickets or household energy, MPs say.
The influential Environmental Audit Committee says a personal carbon trading scheme is the best and fairest way of […]
Pat Buchanan, Churchill and Mussolini
Tue May 27, 2008 – 12:20 pm
I just came across this piece on townhall.com about “How the West Was Lost“. It focuses a large amount of criticism on Sir Winston Churchill. Now, I am not averse to looking back at historically idolized figures and seeing them for the fallible humans they were, but I don’t know where Pat gets […]

Mon May 26, 2008 – 1:09 pm
You can thank George Lucas and Steven Spielberg for causing another Cold War between the Americans and the Russians:
The Associated Press news agency quoted Moscow Communist official Andrei Andreyev as saying: “It is very disturbing if talented directors want to provoke a new Cold War.”
