By Jonathon Van Maren On January 28, a solemn ceremony was held in the little town of Wimereux, France, the home of the military cemetery where Canadian military doctor and poet John McCrae was laid to rest after his death from pneumonia exactly one century before. It was cold and windy, one attendee reported, but…
By Jonathon Van Maren Next year, it will have been a full half-century since our consumerist, throw-away culture decided that it could adopt a “Return to Sender” attitude towards children, as well, with Pierre Elliot Trudeau’s decision to decriminalize abortion in 1969. Since then, we have been reaping the whirlwind. More than four million children…
By Jonathon Van Maren For global abortion activists, there is nothing that cannot be sacrificed on the red-hot altars of “choice”—even millions of little girls. Girls who are still growing blissfully in the womb do not yet count as “women” and can still be victims of “reproductive freedom,” and so the globalist feminists who arrive…

By Jonathon Van Maren As Dr. Jordan B. Peterson trots the globe for the launch of his new book 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos, it has been immensely amusing for me (and millions of others) to watch progressive media figures invite him into their studios, come out swinging their hatchets, and miss…
By Jonathon Van Maren There has been a tsunami of commentary washing over us since Patrick Brown’s career was immolated earlier this week, with some heralding his ousting as a victory for the #metoo movement, and others claiming that Brown was the victim of a grave injustice. Quite a few pundits have responded to the…
By Jonathon Van Maren At a press conference earlier this afternoon, religious leaders came forward to demand that Justin Trudeau’s Liberals either scrap or change the new abortion attestation, in spite of sloppy attempts by the Employment Minister Patty Hajdu to clarify the attestation and assure faith groups that they could check the box and…
By Jonathon Van Maren The term “open secret” is being thrown around on Twitter a lot since former PC leader Patrick Brown’s career burned down in a matter of hours in the wake of bombshell sexual misconduct allegations and the subsequent resignation of nearly all of his top staff. Brown tearfully denied the explicit allegations,…
