Threatening to beat up a shoplifter at Home Depot has lots of potential.

What Happened to the Universityโ€™s Commitment to Free Expression? Charley Kirk, uAlberta, and Me | Centre for Free Expression I was shocked when the University of Alberta administration informed me, one of its law professors, that I was being placed on non-disciplinary leave for my social media comments in the wake of Charli...

Once again the University of Alberta shows that it does not understand the meaning of free expression or academic freedom.

Doug Ford will outlaw municipal speed cameras this fall: sources Sources say Ford's Progressive Conservatives will table legislation later this fall to outlaw the "automated speed enforcement" devices.

End speed traps and roadside breathalyzer, since they donโ€™t give drivers a fair opportunity to evade the law? What about police use of fingerprint and DNA evidence which are unfair to criminals, since it makes it harder for them to escape punishment?

I think, unlike Trump, he believes what he says, which may make it worse. He is a dangerous fool.

The typos in the job notice are there to show that Windsor law is not elitist?

Quebec plans to outlaw public prayer in move to strengthen secularism Legislation will be tabled this fall to ban prayer in public places, says Secularism Minister Jean-Franรงois Roberge

This is clearly unconstitutional unless the gov invokes the notwithstanding clause. A stark example of religious intolerance worthy of Maurice Duplessis.

There may have been some exchange about time and place in advance of the unconditional surrender. Perhaps that is what he means.

One of those emails is from me - and so of course will get your immediate attention.

Border bill would give authorities sweeping security powers and restrict asylum claims The bill would grant Ottawa the power to halt or cancel the processing of immigration applications en masse if it is deemed in the public interest

While the Conservative Party did not win the election it appears that a conservative party did. This is more than disappointing.

Had the Conservatives been led by a more moderate leader - like Erin Oโ€™Toole or Jean Charest - they would have swept to power. Progressive voters would have been less afraid of a Tory gov and would not have abandoned the NDP.1/2

โ€ฆ says so. It could have been and could be otherwise. The people who reside in this particular territory (most of them a far distance from the oil) have no inherent claim to the resource.
