“Earth Hour”? I missed it , I looked outside to take a look but didn’t notice any difference. I didn't think they'd miss me at the "service", and I don't see Suzuki, Gore and their followers as any kind of saviour to my children, or the planet. They mean well but the wad of money in their pockets means more to them than the truth. I did notice though how rabid people got when they realized

Some blogs I read are inspirations, they know who they are. They practise what they preach, value common sense, and know what peace really means when it comes to being an individual, and most important of all family. Families at one time followed simple rules, constants that somehow where taken as an instinct. Adults somehow bound themselves with a common destiny. A destiny pot marked

I’m not bragging with what’s about to follow but it’s amazing what your kids show you without even trying with the questions they ask? I pick my kids up during the week and take them out to Timmies on Thursdays.

Okay I have a confession to make, I found this blog how I can’t remember. It doesn’t really matter what does is I find it totally hilarious, real, and full of moments you can really wrap your mind around especially if you came from a down to earth, golden rule type of family like many of us did back in the day.

It’s my fourteen year old daughter’s birthday today, and if she could understand totally I’d give her the set of videos Ezra Levant has made available to free Canadians, made while he is in his own words being "interrogated" by the Alberta Human Rights Commission for publishing a series of cartoons about radical Islam. In my mind it’s more of a gift then I could buy at a store. Its freedom

I’m a father truly blessed, two beautiful healthy daughters, that have always garnered praise from teachers for their good nature and ability to learn. It doesn’t always come easy to them. Reality has always been clear to them and they deal with everyday events and their challenges with their eyes wide open. Naïve hasn’t been an option I ever supported, but “some times what you don’t know doesn’t

I’ve come to see life is like playing the same lotto numbers every week, then finally winning big and you misplace your ticket. No wonder some of the elderly are so bent over, it’s from all the character building.

Sixteen years ago working on a cleaning crew for a large turkey grower, I ran into a pleasant older man who worked on one of the farms. He was for the most part always smiling coming up to you and placing his hand on your shoulder striking up a jovial conversation, and showing genuine concern for who ever he was talking to. This too many wouldn’t be much of a feat, but Gupta lost his only child a

Ipperwash Documentary"Wed Jan 17 2007 - A documentary on the history of Ipperwash Provincial Park is in the making. It's expected to be an hour-long "easy to follow" case study that focuses on how the park came to exist.

You awake in the morning not knowing what morsels are going to be found on your plate, or yanked from your grasp.

While driving to work this morning at 6 am listening to the local news, it was brought to my attention some unfortunate families that own cottages on leased reserve land have been told to be gone with their belongings by Jan 31.

A commenter at Small Dead Animals asked the question "Why isn’t something done ?" Pertaining to the murder/suicide that occurred in Toronto this past week. I don’t think it is a case of what can be done. It isn’t a problem that can be undone overnight or with a parliamentary study. We have lost our way, whitewashed traditions and the values that where passed on with a duty by parents or a

Darcey has a story up about a man catching a HUGE catfish which is remarkable in itself, but what I found most interesting is a story left in a comment from Fergy. It left me to thinking how many boys these days get to go off by themselves and explore the neighbour hood stream, river or pond? I can relate to Fergy’s story involving the big purple beasts called channel cats. The excitement

Reading about the foiled terrorist plot, only leads one to believe this country is but a shade of what it was.

Any bets when bullets will fly at Caledonia? Terrible thought you say, maybe so?The real hilarious moments in this whole debate are the property owners that feel guilty enough to side with the natives.

It seems when one reads between the lines, it is not hard to see when it comes to moments of the self- sufficiency, honesty, and enjoyment of freedoms that benefit more than just ones self. There is a liberal, or a socialist waiting to tread on rural values and the freedom that allows one to enjoy freedom to its fullest honest intent, and experience life in an honest natural way.Why?

The Minutemen, denounced as vigilantes by President Bush but greatly respected in the state, are now building a fence on private land along the Mexican border. They are going national too, with chapters popping up in Virginia and elsewhere" (link)I know as a Canadian I felt alarmed seeing

As things stand in society today, I wonder how many people have experienced situations where one parent takes a stand, and tries to correct a childs bad behaviour, and the other undermines their effort completely, derailing the whole process of raising a child responsibly. I've seen it and experienced it personally though not in a very damaging way, never the less some people don't see the big

I stopped by Dust My broom to check out whats new in regards to the stand off at Caledonia, and I couldn't believe what I was reading. One always wonders about the self serving stabilty of a liberal minion but it articles like these that definately tender the fact the bats have escaped the bellfry.Certainly perceptions from either side are deeply rooted, but it isn't hard to spot a "perfect"

If you own land, run a business , or expect to earn an honest living minding your own matters, while being responsible for yourself and your family. Make sure you don't live near a reserve.Now before I go on I have the upmost respect for anyone of any color that works for a living, pays taxes, or those that don't but live with who they are within the circumstances they find themselves with

Well here is one group of farmer’s that where not sitting in the local coffee shop “bitching”, and doing nothing but watching things stay the same. One has to respect the backbone of the farmer in question and his neighbours that walked a dangerous line against the police and bureaucrats’. One also has to wonder at the motives of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, and the egg producers’ board

It has been reported under Harper’s watch that flags around our capitol haven’t been lowered to half mast when one of our own has fallen in Afghanistan? They where however lowered to half-mast by the liberals every time a soldier fell except for one?Is it not our duty as citizens to lower our own “internal flag” when we hear of a soldier’s sacrifice whether it was yesterday or in the conflicts of

Not just prevalent in divorce but more harmful to a child in a family divided by that invisible barrier only the wise take heed of, and learn from.The mother upon learning of her twelve year old daughter'’s

You know I once told someone who had their undies in a knot over America and Iraq that they should not get so upset. Once democracy takes hold there as it has, and time goes by soon Iraq will have a divorce rate the same as ours is today, feminism will be in full swing and all of our other little bad habits when it comes to culture will be apparent, it’s just a side affect of “progressiveness”

Reading the local newspaper this week I was surprised to find some encouraging news that could help suggest Stephen Harper hasn't lost touch with the common man, and intends to keep with his promises.I found it even more surprising that it came from a good friend of mine I attended public and high school with. I took the liberty of scanning the paper and posting the article.

It seems lately when it comes to the local inquiry into the shooting of Dudley George all we seem to hear is how the premier at the time ( Mike Harris) was to blame, for the violent and tragic outcome at the occupied provincial park. Before I go farther, it does seem the Army Camp lands should have been returned to the Stoney Point natives long ago . This may have saved a tragic death, and a 15

Well I’m already bored with all the doom and gloom, floating around about Harper and his ethics. We have had the first wave of “shock” applied to our senses; many have beaten it to death. Let’s hope a good dose of awe is in the wings waiting to dispel the fear of those holding their white flags, and give others that are holding out for the “enlightenment” a reason to burn theirs.Here are a couple

For those of you that are outraged and are talking about something akin to reform.Preston and Stornoway.Frankly the only principle I'm holding Stephen to (at the moment) is to hold on and make some positive changes in Ottawa. Many seem to think Conservatism holds the same power as the Ark of the Covenant when it comes to impressing the electorate and vaporizing modern liberalism with principles,

Well to be honest in the past I had a local "liberal" MP who I wished would have done the same, as she was against C-68, SSM, as well as other things her government supported, she never did but she did drop out before the last election , my guess - she silently realized her party was way left of her
