By Jonathon Van Maren When my colleague and I arrived in the dining room of Redeemer University College in Ancaster, there were about 100 people already there, collecting cups of coffee and cookies from tables alongside the wall and taking seats at round tables spread around the room. The crowd was fairly diverse in age,…
By Jonathon Van Maren In keeping with my lifelong tradition of not watching the Oscars, I did not watch the Oscars again this year. I get slightly irritated by the conservatives who intentionally subject themselves to the generally smutty films being celebrated, and then work themselves up into a rage over how trashy the films…
