The British Home Office calls it “search engine optimisation”, but that’s just a euphemism for “manipulation”. Whatever you call it, it’s idiotic and futile. Whitehall officials will train pro-West Islamic groups to manipulate their Google search ranking in an attempt to drown out extremist voices online, The Register has learned. The policy is being developed [...]

Quebec premier Jean Charest recently claimed that Quebec is a “family paradise”. He said this while visiting a daycare centre. What’s wrong with this picture? “Quebec is recognized as a leader in the world regarding support to families. Our government works so that Quebec remains a paradise for families. We ensure that all parents and [...]
The headline at Discover Magazine’s Discoblog says “Growing Numbers of People Marrying Inanimate Objects”, but only two such people are named in the post. I’m not sure that qualifies as “growing”, but it definitely qualifies as barmy. Eija-Riitta Berliner-Mauer is married to the Berlin Wall. […] Berliner-Mauer (the German name for the Berlin Wall, which [...]
Two more Saint Mary’s University students chime in to defend last February’s shameful and cowardly shout-down of pro-life speaker Jojo Ruba. Their letters, which appear in the latest issue of the SMU Journal, take a ugly turn with personal attacks on philosophy professor Mark Mercer, an outspoken and tireless defender of free speech on campus.

Canada should push for the creation of an international park that would protect the area around the North Pole, Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff said Monday.

For many years, police in Germany have been searching for a female serial criminal. The woman’s DNA had shown up at 39 different crime scenes, including seven murders, committed over a period of fifteen years. Her DNA was found over and over again: in bottles, tank lids, on bullets – and once even on a [...]
Twice in the past ten days, “clerical errors” led to the mistaken release of prisoners from custody. One has since been apprehended, the other is still at large. That brings to seven the total number of mistaken releases or prisoner escapes since Cecil Clarke became Nova Scotia’s Minister of Justice in October 2007. Yesterday, Mr [...]
More journalists and Hollywood stars burble on about Obama. Obama “walks into a room and you want to follow him somewhere, anywhere,” George Clooney gushed to Charlie Rose. “I’ll collect paper cups off the ground to make [Obama’s] pathway clear,” Halle Berry recently told the Philadelphia Daily News, “I’ll do whatever he says.” (Does Michelle [...]

The Canadian flag used to hang from the ceiling of Wyckham House, the student centre at Mount Royal College, Calgary. It was taken down during renovations, but the students’ association is apparently having qualms about restoring it to its former place of honour.

The Tyranny of Nice in the UK. Renowned political philosopher Kenneth Minogue remarks on a paradox at the heart of contemporary British society. For many years, government policies and public institutions have been based on compassion, empathy, and concern; yet, increasingly, the result is a society manifesting the opposite qualities—indifference, lawlessness, and violence. Young offenders [...]
Erstwhile rock singer Courtney Love is being sued for messages she sent via that nasty new “social networking” tool Twitter. Fans of Twitter say its beauty is that it allows users to upload their thoughts as and when they think of them. This can be a serious disadvantage for those of a belligerent disposition. Ms [...]
Susie, an American woman in Saudi Arabia, has made the shocking discovery that vice cops with the Committee for the Protection of Virtue and Prevention of Vice (CVPVP) censor CD covers. She recently bought her son a copy of Kate Perry’s One of the Boys. When he opened up the CD, we were both astonished [...]
