Canada’s Health Care System Cannot Survive Mass Immigration

A cynic might characterize Canada’s medicare system as the universal, free, democratic and egalitarian access to a two-year waiting list. You jump the queue only if you have the bucks and the referral to jump over the 49th, unless a life-threatening emergency sends you to the OR.

Zimbabwe not Mugabe’s private company says Tsvangirai

Robert MugabeGweru, Zimbabwe- It is a hot Saturday afternoon. The sky is partly cloudy and a warm breeze sweeps through Mkoba stadium in Zimbabwe's third largest city, Gweru. A large crowd of about 13, 000 people brace the unfriendly weather to attend a political campaign rally. Music blares from a sound system at the center of the stadium. An old lady in her 70s dances in the crowd. She draws laughter from the assorted gathering of youths, the middle aged and the old. An infant giggles from her mother's back. All these faces are anxiously waiting for their guest and presidential hopeful, Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) leader, Morgan Tsvangirai. As the MDC leader arrives, there is deafening noise in the stadium. Tsvangirai takes to the stage to address his supporters.

In Defense of this Western Man

Growing up politically in America

Growing up in America in the seventies and eighties, I really had no concept of geography or international relations. My public and private school educations managed to avoid the whole concept of the world outside of the United States, with the exception of England and the Soviet Union. I was aware that France and Canada existed, to be fair, and I had heard of Mexico.
