Ontarians on February 27 are going to vote for a new provincial government. Premier Doug Ford has called an election because he claims he needs a mandate. This is to push against the proposed 25% tariffs that Donald Trump has threatened to impose on Canadian products. Trump even suggested that Canada become the 51st state. As he launched hid bid for another term, Ford was wearing a cap with this message: "Canada is not for Sale." It's funny that it took Trump for politicians at every level of government to discover Canada. Now, they all want to defend Canada, and stand up to the "bully." 

Up until yesterday, Canada was such a terrible country. Canada is populated with colonizers. Canada is systematically racist. Canada has committed genocide. Canada is built on stolen land. Canada is a fallen country and in need of progressive redemption from the left. The nation must believe the woke religion of DIE, diversity, inclusion and equity. Forget the Canadian and territorial flags, we must fly the pride flag everywhere. We must recognize and celebrate all the sexual letters of alphabet.

So, when politicians like Ford and others, like Mark Carney and Chrystia Freeland, who are running to become the new leader of the Liberal party say they are standing up for Canada, what are they really defending? A Canada that Justin Trudeau claims is no longer a nation? Are we backing the freedom to give children puberty blockers and surgeries to mutilate their bodies? Are we blessing the fake liberty to abort unborn children and euthanize Canadians for any reason whatsoever? Or are they just standing for their privileged jobs? These are people who have called Canadians colonizers, thieves, racists and guilty of genocide. 

Sorry, but to all these politicians, their lament for Canada rings hollow. If Ford really wanted to defend Canada, he would have started by scrapping the DIE policy in every government institution, especially public schools. Set an example for the corporate world to follow. Instead, he has allowed the harmful agenda to make its way into Ontario classrooms through bad and divisive laws and policies. We are all Canadians, are we not?

Want to stand for Canada? Start by telling the truth. Canada is not a racist country. People in the past did not purposefully come to Canada to oppress others. This would make the martyrs colonizers. Canadians like PM Sir John A. Macdonald and educator Egerton Ryerson are not guilty of cultural genocide. We cannot change history. What we can do is aim to do better in the future.

Want to build and defend Canada? Start by defining what it means to be a nation. Support the nuclear family which is the building block of any strong country. Be proud of the Canadian flag and the national anthem. Defend, at every stage, the life of every Canadian. Teach children in schools the history and geography of Canada. Yes, celebrate our Christian past that helped to build schools, hospitals and define who we are. Yes, celebrate Indigenous history which has shaped Canada and continues to do so. And we must not remove God from the nation. We are all Canadians, are we not?

A "study" has been released by the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) making the claim that the phrase "Christ the King" is being used by some "extremists" as "hate speech" and to fuel "antisemitism". 

The publication is titled, “Thy Name in Vain: How Online Extremists Hijacked ‘Christ is King’". The aim of NCRI is to uncover "the spread of hostile ideological content” online and “identify and forecast cyber-social threats.” 

But who decides that anyone using a word, expression or the phrase "Christ is King" ought to be accused of spreading "hostile ideological content" and possibly be censored? The report claims the phrase has been weaponized by people like Candace Owens, Jack Posobiec and Nick Fuentes.

Hermas, The Shepherd, Similitude V

Introduction

Fasting can be easy, but sticking your neck out in solidarity and taking time away from other things are definitely the proving grounds. Certainly not everyone can go on missions or volunteer projects, but all of us know at least one person who might need care, attention, a ready smile and a kind word.

Math has never been my favourite subject, and I have always struggled to understand it, many times without success.With Christ, all of the diagrams and formulas go out the window, and I am happily confused.

St. Diadochus of Photike, A Hundred Chapters on Spiritual Perfection, 42

Introduction

Lent offers us the occasion t gauge on the wholeness of the human person,  giving us the occasion to integrate body and soul through prayer, fasting and almsgiving.

The arrogant PM Justin Trudeau has resigned, and the new leader Mark Carney is yet to become the new prime minister. Trudeau has shut down Parliament for over 2 months, but this has not stopped the Liberals from spending (wasting) tax dollars Canada doesn’t have.

Ahmed Hussen, Minister of International Development, just announced $272.1 million in new funding for 14 projects in Bangladesh and the Indo-Pacific region.

Mark Carney is the new Liberal Party leader to replace Justin Trudeau. He will be sworn in as PM tomorrow. Carney made it clear in his victory speech that the enemy of Canada is Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and President Donald Trump. It took the Trump threat of tariffs for the Liberal party to suddenly discover the value of defending Canada. It was Trudeau who claimed Canada was a post-nation state with no core values, and that he admired China.

Theophilus of Alexandra, Easter Letter   

Introduction

Preparing for Easter means preparing for a great feast, the most important one of the liturgical year. Joy becomes the adornment of our hearts, which reach out toward the divine while resting on earth. Good habits must be ready to go for the feast.

The Liberal Party has elected Mark Carney as their new leader to replace PM Justin Trudeau who resigned. In his speech after his victory, Carney had all good things to say about the Liberal party and the outgoing prime minister. It was all Liberal cheers, smiles and applause. Carney who has never been elected to any political position could now become Canada's prime minister.

Carney said he will follow the example set by Trudeau to unite Canada and fight against the American tariffs.

St. Leo the Great, Sermon, 21, 3  

Introduction

It's nice to feel loved in spite of ourselves and in spite of everything. God loves us above all things, and his embrace is all-encompassing. Feeling loved stirs up love; it is an awareness that God calls each of us to recognize the uniqueness of every person, to rediscover our dignity, and to acknowledge the need for daily conversion.

1 Timothy 2:1-5
First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings should be made for everyone, for kings and all who are in high positions, so that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and dignity. This is right and is acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour, who desires everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
