Leading by example?

Doesn't seem the Conservatives are leading by example, does it? Not very astute to point out loopholes in their own Federal Accountability Act.

Tommy Douglas

A nice quote from someone often referred to as the "father of medicare in Canada":

"Man can now fly in the air like a bird, swim under the ocean like a fish, he can burrow into the ground like a mole. Now if only he could walk the earth like a man, this would be paradise." (Tommy Douglas)

Knowing our 12th Imam

Sometimes contests such as these are an excellent way to learn about a topic.

What topic is more important than that of the 12th Imam?

Peace without justice?

If this is not an example of terrorism, I don't know what is.

The cynical side of me wonders why the Globe and Mail decided not to show the picture they ran in the print version of this article. As the old saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words.

That's okay, here's a picture from another article on the issue.

Wonder if folks ever consider why all these attacks are always in Palestinian refugee camps? Why are there Palestinian refugees in Palestine? What happened to there homes and communities that made them into refugees? Do those carrying out these attacks sincerely believe that peace without justice is achievable?

Imam Hussein (A.S.)

Regarding Imam Hussein (A.S.) the following has been quoted.
