Remarque! La version française suit un peu plus bas The new Pilgrims Last week’s update homed-in on the collapsing trust between Canadian citizens and their public service providers. It focussed particularly on professionals and officials in the political, medical and educational domains and cited the failure of related public servants to honour oaths of office that put the public interest first. In the end, it was observed that the sacred public trust that underpins our pa

"Major Russ Cooper (Ret'd) rolls "In Hot" with weapons fully armed and loaded against the forces that would do away with the concept loving, traditional palliative care for those Canadians who desire it. How can it be that, with the advent of "Medical Assistance in Dying", such choices can no longer be countenanced in a country that used to guarantee individual rights to religion, conscience and association?

We saw them initiated in the Thirteen Colonies during the lead up to the American Revolution. They were populated by “patriots” and served as “shadow governments” designed to displace the King’s rule. In the case of the American Revolution, these Committees did so by organizing boyc

Remarque! La version française suit un peu plus bas A pig in a poke Back in the 1500’s merchants would sell piglets in a sack called a “poke”.
