The economy is eroding and prices are soaring for consumers. Indeed, when compared to just twelve months ago, the mood of your average Ontarian is much grimmer when it comes to the economy. Most specifically, Ontario is regaining the dubious honour that it had twenty years ago when it became dead last in […]

So the Liberals want an election again? Must be an even day of the month…
Still, Don Martin reveals some ideas that the Official Abstinence wants to put in their *winning* campaign platform:
Well, insiders say they’ll include a scaled-down version of MPDan McTeague’s registered education savings scheme into a platform featuring pledges to fight homelessness, […]

Okay, so it’s got the usual 3rd grade argument level and is only written by one of his toadies but, hey, baby steps, right? I have to confess that I’m in agreement with the spirit of this post (albeit tentatively). Dr. Charles McVety is a very respectable figure in the Christian community in […]

or, “My arrogant opinion on the Federal Budget 2008“
I agree with Jack Layton who says this budget does nothing to help working families but I doubt that he has the same reasons as me. Instead of “helping” people or industries with subsidies, I would rather just see tax cuts and spending cuts.
1) the […]

It was promised, it is delivered. (Gads. I sound like a Stephen Harper commercial.)
The big leadoff is the carbon tax proposed. It affects a number of different sectors, but the one that hits home the hardest is the gas tax component. 2.4 cents to start, rising to 7.2 cents in 2012! […]

I’m told that at a time long, long ago, Ontario’s curriculum was actually the envy of the world. We were a province which always outperformed the Englands, Japans, and definately the United States of the world. Today, the results are far more mixed. Strangely enough, today’s crisis in education lies at the […]

It’s a little late, but here is my post on the 20th anniversary of the R v. MORGENTALER ruling.-Matthew
This past weekend, I posted a blog entry on the column that the National Post printed on Saturday featuring Ryerson University professor Judy Rebick, a woman whose current job title I found out is strikingly Orwellian: the […]

They say that university campuses are the driving force behind all the major political movements these days…well at least those on The Left. I was waiting for this to happen though:
Sydney’s Cardinal Pell heavily criticized an Australian medical journal for publishing a professor’s letter calling for a tax on children of $5000 per child […]

First off, Merry Christmas to all the readers of ThePolitic who visit here frequently. I hope that you and your families get to enjoy the Christmas holidays and are blessed with the knowledge that true peace is achievable through Him that was born when he didn’t need to be, and died that death […]

If I had to rate the Harper government’s performance so far, I’d have to give it an A since it has managed to do more good for Canada than 8 years of Mulroney rule and certainly more good than 12 years of Chretien-Martin rule. There are occasional examples though of when our current government […]
