I am proud of what we have achieved, but I am not content. I am pleased with our progress, but I am not satisfied.
To steal shamelessly from one of my favourite blogs — SDA — now is the time we juxtapose…

Alberta kangaroo courts awarded a 25% pay raise for their abusive bullying and censorship by Alberta’s premier, Ed Stelmach.
Alberta’s human rights legislation will balance freedom of speech with our responsibility to others.
Huh? I know about my freedom of speech. It is an ancient, inalienable right. It happens to be enshrined in Canada’s Bill of Rights [...]

White House schedules a photo-op:
Air Force One Flyby Of Goldman Sachs Tower
Gee, who could have foreseen this was a bad idea? And I wonder what the whole stunt cost? Good to know the economy’s back on track and the U.S. government can, once again, spend the “surplus” on important things like photo-ops.

UN Watch exposes hypocrisy of Durban II conference
Iran interrupts U.N. racism session
In a moment that will encapsulate the disappointment of many human rights activists attending the Durban 2 conference, Iran’s delegate interrupted UN Watch executive director Hillel Neuer for daring to mention this week’s testimony by Iranian torture victim Ahmed Batebi, delivered Sunday before a [...]

Mark Steyn’s new book Lights Out: Islam, Free Speech And The Twilight Of The West is not currently for sale in Canada.
From Werner Patels:
A must-read book for sure. But what is puzzling (well, not really) is that the book is not listed with Amazon.ca – it is available at Amazon.com, though. I suppose we shouldn’t [...]

A 2005 quote from Iranian president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
(pronounced “I’m-a-nutjob”):
“We say that this fake regime [Israel] cannot logically continue to live. Open the doors [of Europe] and let the Jews go back to their own countries.”
Fast forward to 2009 and the Durban II misnamed anti-racism conference:
In his opening speech, Ahmadinejad proceeded to name Israel as a [...]

Durban II:
Turning liberalism on itself
When Iran, Libya and Cuba, the three countries particularly active in organizing Durban II, cast themselves as beacons of anti-racism and human rights, and everyone nods politely because they want to be tolerant and co-operative, part of the dialogue, you know the lunatics have grabbed the keys to the asylum.
The United [...]

Journalism changing, not dying by Paul Berton
Despite what you may have heard, the industry is not dying; it’s changing. Yes, newspapers are closing, circulation almost everywhere is declining, and TV stations are shutting down.

Who could have foreseen that Free Press reporter Randy Richmond, one of the best writers in the business, would be [...]

Wake up, Americans. You are getting very close to losing your First Amendment rights. In Canada, we’ve become all too aware that freedom of speech is no longer a guaranteed Canadian charter right, thanks to the high-profile persecutions of Ezra Levant and Macleans/Mark Steyn.

From UN Watch:
In an unprecedented coup, the rank hypocrisy of Durban II was exposed before the world this week when UN Watch surprised the Libyan chair — by bringing a victim of Qaddafi torture to confront her on Libya’s brutal torture and scapegoating of five Bulgairan nurses and a Palestinian doctor. The video clip has [...]

Allan says this about George Galloway: “The man should be knighted.” This is Allan’s hero, the great humanitarian who funds terrrorists…
