There is no one more persistent than a liberal with a bad idea. He knows his intellectual and moral superiority make him infallible, so he easily convinces himself there is nothing wrong with his idea; it is the world that is mistaken.

Even the facts cannot be the facts when they disagree with his idea. So he forges ahead against all reason, attempting to remake the world until it accepts he was correct all along. read more

What do Ontario Members of the Provincial Parliament Stand For?

A Question of the life and death of Freedom in Ontario and in Canada

Mr. Premier, – Regarding the newly introduced procedures of the Ontario Human Rights tribunal system, there are very serious problems you, your government and this legislature seem to have entirely overlooked.
