Canadians need less government control over children and family life, not more

In Quebec, keeping a neglected or mistreated child with their biological family is no longer a government priority. The idea may at first sound like a good policy, but it's not. Nobody can disagree with putting the needs of children first. However, the problem is in the details.

The Quebec provincial government has passed Bill 15, An Act to amend the Youth Protection Act and other legislative provisions. The legislation gives the social service system more control over children in care and less to parents. It used to be that every effort was made to keep even troubled and abused children with their own biological parents. The new law would no longer makes it a priority to put parental and family rights first.

Don't expect Alberta's health officer to respond to Dr. Hoffe's concerns

One patient, Dr.

Canada's PM Trudeau broke the Conflict of Interest Act several times, but wants Canadians to obey the law

Yes, you read the title of this post correctly. Canada's PM Justin Trudeau is a crook, but don't expect the MSM and state funded broadcaster the CBC to tell Canadians that fact. There is no reason for the MSM to call out Trudeau when they happily collect millions of tax dollars from that same government.

Canadians no longer have a truthful and transparent media that they can trust to report the news objectively and balanced.

Conflict of interest: Catholic trustee runs as a Liberal MPP

Trustee Ida Li Preti is running as a Liberal MPP candidate in Humber River—Black Creek, for the upcoming provincial election this June 2. She fails to make clear in her campaign literature that she's still presently a trustee with the Toronto Catholic District School Board. Surely, this is a conflict of interest. Moreover, the Ontario Liberal Party has policies which completely contradict Catholic teaching.

This is part of how Li Preti introduces herself to voters on her campaign website:

Ontario's Municipal Election this October but little will change in public education

Yes, Ontario's Municipal and School Board Elections are coming on October 24, 2022. However, parents should not expect much to change in Ontario school boards and their local schools. Public education is a huge monopoly.

In the last election of 2018, Conservative leader Doug Ford had promised to repeal the controversial sex-curriculum implemented by the Liberal Kathleen Wynne government, in 2015.

Australian Archbishop Porteous says Church caught in “spiritual paralysis”

The Catholic Church is facing a moral crisis. In Germany, a schism is a certain possibility. Archbishop Julian Porteous isn't afraid to speak the truth. He has criticized a preparatory document about the spiritual and pastoral direction of the Church in Australia. He believes the weak approach has serious flaws and is without the "evangelical vigor" needed.

Canada moving to only government approved journalist

The Trudeau Liberal government will now license journalists in Canada. This is a terrible move for Canadians. Media should basically govern itself through healthy competition and self-regulation. When the government legislates the certification of journalists, then the accusation of fake news is no longer a mere accusation. There is a huge danger that the news won't be reported in a balanced and responsible manner.

Canadians will not be able to trust the MSM.

The Easter Proclamation (Exultet)

Exult, let them exult, the hosts of heaven,

ablaze with light from her eternal King,

let all corners of the earth be glad,

knowing an end to gloom and darkness.

Good Friday: "Love's Day, Love's Question"

On this Good Friday, we post the meditation of the day from the Magnificat. It's written by Servant of God Catherine de Hueck Doherty who founded the Friendship House in Harlem, New York, in 1938. She died 1985.

Love’s Day, Love’s Question Today is Love’s Day. Today God has shown us how much he loves us—shown it by dying on the cross, and thus showing us how we must love him and one another. Re-read the words of Christ at the Last Supper from the Gospel of Saint John.

Bill 67 assumes that every Ontarian is guilty of racism, sexism and discrimination

Bill 67, the Racial Equity in Education Act, tells Ontarians that they are racists, sexists and discriminate against others. The proposed legislation will be a terrible law because, without any proof needed, it finds Ontarians and provincial institutions such as school public schools and universities guilty of systemic racism, sexism and discrimination. If it passes final reading, it will make for a very bad law. Readers may sign a petition against the Bill here.
