Our good friends at the Ontario Public Service Employees Union are at it again! Continuing on their ‘at all costs’ battle to win their contract negotiations, they are refusing to give up on their inhumane pursuit to get approval for using martial arts equipment against autistic children!

In a private member’s bill put to vote last week the Conservative government repealed the notorious Section 13 of Canada’s Human Rights Act. Section 13 banned communicating over telephone or the Internet of “any matter that is likely to expose a person or persons to hatred or contempt.” It allowed for communicating truthful information- but people …

Last week I wrote about how Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) provided $250,437 to the Vancouver Area Network Of Drug Users (VANDU), and how they are working to expand their coverage to reach Abbotsford (and funding from Fraser Health).

I woke-up this morning to find two of my political heroes on one video- what a treat! I spent time with Ken Livingston when I was working on the design of London’s Congestion Charging system- “Red Ken” is a tenacious, far-left, shit-disturber who is never afraid to speak his mind.

Today I start the first of a series of articles called “Liars, Damned Liars &…” where I will be chronicling stories of people who have issues with being honest.

Dear Peter Wrinch, Today I read an article on your web page about Harm Reduction. It was curious to see it was written by Fathima Cader. It took me a few moments until I realized where I knew her name from. Then it dawned on me- this woman has done enormous harm to me…

“You should not honor men more than truth.” ~Plato I took a lot of abuse from people after suggesting Kevin Annett is a con-artist. I had people sending me hate mail, abusive messages on Facebook, and an article or two written about me. I won’t hold their actions against the people who attacked me for …

I knew I was really onto something when I wrote my first story on Sakura Saunder’s ProtestBarrick.net. It seems that I really hit a nerve- because, the next day, she dedicated the first-ever of the hijacked Occupy Toronto general assemblies to your’s truly! They should have called the meeting ProtestGreg.net! What an honour! Equally, it was a …
