(We posted this piece almost exactly a year ago today, but it may be even more relevant now, with Bill C-11 (formerly C-10) currently being debated in the Senate. See this discussion between Jordan Petersen and Rex Murphy as they muse on what may happen in our once-free Dominion). The right to free speech is[…]
Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart all meek and humble souls and the souls of little children. These souls send all heaven into ecstasy and they are the heavenly Father’s favourites. They are a sweet-smelling bouquet before the throne of God; God Himself takes delight in their fragrance (The Divine Mercy Novena) From[…]
Do not, I beseech you, be troubled about the increase of forces already in dissolution. You have mistaken the hour of the night; it is already morning. (Hilaire Belloc)
Aristotle wrote that rule by the best is the best, which may seem tautological, but it does not seem obvious to many, based on a brief look around.

Such a great project of conservation and restoration, which lasted three years to end, was effectively executed by the firm Atelier del Restauro. The[…]
