So Mr. Oosterfhoff has won the by-election, becoming the youngest MP ever to win a seat in the provincial legislature. I wish him and his constituents all the best, but still stand by what I wrote, that there should be certain criteria for leadership, whether by custom or by law. Ideally, we as voters would[…]
John Robson is right, when he decries the hypocrisy of Prime Minister Trudeau and his entourage of 225 ‘delegates’ to the ‘climate change’ conference in sunny and warm Morocco. Yes, you read rightly, that’s 200 plus 25, along with Trudeau, his whole family, and one may presume an in-law and nanny or two, trailing one[…]
Saint Albert was called the ‘great’ even during his lifetime, rumoured to have known everything there was to be known, which may have been sort of possible in the early thirteenth century.

Donald Trump has been elected the next President of the United States of America, an outcome that I, and many others, welcome, albeit with some degree of caution. As I wrote yesterday, he is a lot better than another four years of the Clintons in the White House, a quarter century after their first foray[…]
The legends of Robin Hood and his Merry Men exert a near universal appeal, and have done so for generations. From ballads to books to films, the daring rebel spirit of the Prince of Thieves who, over the course of many mythological transformations, came to be seen as a champion for the common people[…]
It will all be over later today, one way or the other, after a bizarre and unenviable election process: The United States of America, still the greatest economic and military force on the planet, at least for now, will have, to all intents and purposes, a new leader, either Mr. Trump or Ms. Clinton, neither[…]
Politics is a curious business, and not just in the United States the Big Day approaches: Here in Ontario, Canada, about a four hour drive from where I live, a nineteen year old Brock university political science student, Sam Oosterhoff, was just chosen as the upcoming candidate for the riding of Niagara West-Glanbrook, and could[…]
