By Jonathon Van Maren As our society reorders itself around the tenets of the Sexual Revolution, witch hunts are becoming the norm. It is now considered news, for example, that a Catholic priest holds to Catholic doctrine on issues of sexuality, and major newspapers (in this case the Toronto Star) breathlessly cover this non-story with…
By Jonathon Van Maren Like any young conservative who wants to become a writer someday, William F. Buckley was one of my heroes back when I attended university in Vancouver (where, incidentally, his wife Patricia hailed from). His resume was so impressive it was hard not to be awed: He founded the National Review, began…
By Jonathon Van Maren With the near-universal acceptance of the premises of transgender ideology by the media, it is sometimes difficult to discern the truth of a story due to the Orwellian language used by the press to convey “news story.” Consider, for example, this recent headline in the Seattle Times: “Faith-based shelter fights to…

As is so often…
By Jonathon Van Maren The news that a new political party unambiguously calling itself “the Islamic Party of Ontario” may soon be an option at Ontario’s ballot boxes has triggered precisely the sort of commentary you would expect it to. Tarek Fatah highlighted some of the unsavory aspects of several of the would-be founders. Michael…
By Jonathon Van Maren Kudos to the Wall Street Journal for publishing one of the most comprehensive critiques of the transgender phenomenon and the horrible situation many families have found themselves in.
