We should obliterate all history and that solves everything. We have all the answers now and everyone in the past was just stupid.

I think they are only considering part of the issue. What is it about women displaying their breasts, not necessarily naked? I see young women walking on the sidewalk and coats open, to show off (I don't know why) their new, or not so new, anatomy. The breast seem to be a significant issue...

I hesitate to jump in here, but I think the first mistake is to start quantifying race. Seems to me that is Apartheid and Naziism. We are almost all mongrels, not purebreds, and we need to do our best to treat every person as a fellow human. We all need to try to suppress our assumptions of...

Is the fish plant an essential service? Must be........................

I know a guy whose father lost 3 siblings in 10 days to the Spanish Flu in 1919. The Black Death wiped out an estimated 30% of the population of Europe . This virus is serious but I think social media needs to relax.

Be aware that if your bank account is hacked and you have shared your password with anyone, then the bank will wash its hands and the loss is yours. Hacking is way up since the onset of this pandemic. They have lots of ways of getting in. Also, be aware that swapping $ back and forth between...

I am anxiously awaiting the statistics on what the province has saved by not paying supply teachers since they closed the schools. The absentee rate for Ontario teachers is through the roof compared to other similar professions. In most other professions, no one comes in to pretend to do the...

Can anyone suggest a worse defeat than 22 Feb. 2020? That was beyond embarrassing! Shameful? If I was a Leaf I could not have faced the media.

how can one get an invite to the fish plant Christmas Party?

LCBO is known to be very unreliable when it comes to their "scores" for wines. They are pushing product. Be suspicious. I agree with some of the earlier comments that wines from Spain, Portugal, Chile and Argentina, to name a few, are excellent value because of the currency exchange rate...

I don't know why my last post was edited? I simply used the initials for the Canadian Armed Forces. ??????

It is too bad this episode of Cherry's firing has taken over and obscured all the good Don did. I will always remember how he honoured the sacrifice of members of the ******, RCMP police and others. There was always true emotion from Don. I am sure it was purely his own idea. CBC would never...

On the way into Toronto this morning to attend the ceremony at the cenotaph, fewer than 5% of the packed GO train wore poppies and the same on the way home. There was no apparent difference in the number of "new Canadians" or "old Canadians without poppies. Don is closer to the truth than not...
