The proposed vaccine passports, due to be unveiled today, have been put on hold, purportedly because they were so ‘far reaching’ that Premier Ford, after saying there he would not implement such passports which would ‘split society’, has now put them on hold. Now is the time to send a message to Premier Ford’s office[…]
For an excellent summary of where things stand in Canada and elsewhere across the world, as ‘vaxx-passes’ make their inauspicious advent, limiting or forbidding access to schools, employment and social venues, see this open letter from the doughty Douglas Farrow. We are entering into uncharted totalitarian waters in this fair Dominion, in which, as Dr.[…]
The protracted Hundred Years’ War, (if the term protracted is not redundant) which was more like a series of dynastic wars mainly between French and England, lasted more than a decade longer than its name would imply (1337 – 1453). This day marks the anniversary of one of the most significant of battles, both for[…]
One of our readers asked: I have read that occasionally if a zygote splits, it will sometimes join back together instead of going on to form twins. This rises an interesting, and currently unanswered question: since a human being is indivisible, how can you say that the split zygote has two souls if it splits[…]
Please do pray and offer up whatever daily discomforts, interior and exterior, for Raymond Cardinal Burke, who, according to reports, is critically ill with pneumonia, and on a ventilator. He is 73, so still has a lot to offer the Church in his priestly, episcopal ministry, should God so will. May Our Lady, help of[…]

He had been giving a retreat at Fordham University when he collapsed after having a heart attack. Those who knew him even a little recognized that[…]
I was interviewed recently by Mrs. Bonnie Landry, who hosts a delightful, informative and very popular podcast. The target audience is mothers, especially those still raising children, but many topics would be helpful to others. Our own discussion was on the nature of grace, a propos on this memorial of the first universal plenary indulgence[…]
I’m reading historian Paul Johnson’s Enemies of Society, published in 1977, and it is as timely now as it was over four decades ago – even prophetic in its own way, offering a hermeneutic to interpret the strange days in which we now live. Each chapter has a theme, from the role of science and[…]
Emmanuel Macron’s entire security detail – his personal praetorian guard, if you will – quit en masse rather than submit to his requirement that they all pass his new ‘sanitary certificate’, that is, receive the new experimental gene-therapy vaccine. I admire their principled stance, heading out to the unemployment lines to sell their services to[…]
Should we be surprised? A recent study out of Denmark, published in JAMA Psychiatry, links ‘problematic’ use of marijuana with the development of schizophrenia. This link has been found before, and, with the legalization of ‘weed’ across many states, and all of Canada, we can only expect the incidence of mental disorders to rise. But[…]
