In Canada, it's illegal to "traffic" children across the U.S. border. It's also against the law to take part in extra marriages when you're already wed.
As we all know by now Bill C-389 died on the Senate order papers when the election was called. This is excellent news. Our girls and women can be rest assured no man who innately feels like a women will be going into their washrooms, change rooms, and showers, for now.

In a rush to please special interest groups, the House of Commons has passed the Gender Identity Bill C-389 with virtually no study, debate or public consultation.

Bill C-389
could be up for a final vote in the House of Commons as early as
Wednesday Feb. 9. Debate on this potential legislation is scheduled for

Twenty Prominent Canadian Leaders vow to Fight Canada’s Censor Board As Word TV is Taken Off Air
While travelling together in Israel as part of the Christian Ambassadors to Israel mission, twenty prominent Canadian leaders vow to fight Canada’s censor board that has pressured CTS Television to remove Word TV from the air “permanently”.
The Canadian Broadcast Standards Council has struck again. Only weeks after insisting that Canada Christian College President Dr. Charles McVety be removed from the airwaves for providing clear and accurate criticisms of Ontario sex education initiatives and Gay Pride parades, the CBSC has pronounced judgement upon the vintage Dire Straits video Money for Nothing and wants it purged from the Canadian airwaves. The reason? It seems this 1980s rock video contains a reference to what is discreetly but ambiguously referred to as the “f” word by today’s nattering nabobs of political correctness. Canada’s arbitrator of broadcast acceptability deemed the word and the entire video with it was “offensive” to members of the so-called gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered community after it received a SINGLE complaint from a concerned listener.
WASHINGTON - The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected an appeal from
opponents of same-sex marriage who are seeking to put a proposal on the
ballot to overturn the District of Columbia's gay marriage law.
The
court did not comment Tuesday in turning away a challenge from a
Maryland pastor and others who want Washingtonians to vote on a measure
that defines marriage as between a man and a woman.
Around the world there is a struggle taking place about religion. The
essence of it is this: Are people of religious faith prepared to regard
those of a different faith with respect and dignity; or do they regard
them as enemies because they do not share the same faith as them?
Montreal's Jewish community fears it is being targeted in an orchestrated campaign of hatred.
B'nai Brith's local chapter issued a press release Monday following weekend attacks against five institutions.
Three synagogues, a Jewish school and a daycare had their windows smashed with rocks.
"Following
what appears to be an orchestrated campaign of anti-Semitic attacks,
there is particular concern about the targeting of a school and
daycare," the group said.
Police suspect the attacks are related. They have no eyewitnesses but are hoping surveillance video might offer some clues.
TORONTO— They are disturbing stories of fathers trying to kill their daughters, of brothers murdering their sisters.
Long
prevalent in certain Muslim, Hindu and Sikh cultures in South Asia and
the Middle East, “honour killings” have increasingly been making
headlines in Canada in recent years.
Just before Christmas, Christian activist Charles McVety was found by
the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council to be in contravention of their
code in certain comments he made about gay people on his Word TV show.
During the Middle Ages, the Inquisition dominated the political discourse of the age. It so dominated that discourse that no one else was permitted to challenge the doctrines that it enforced – and one only did so at one’s severe peril. To be hauled before an Inquisitor was a deadly serious affair that sometimes resulted in death by burning at the stake, imprisonment for life or financial ruin; at the very least it meant that one would have to recant from one’s error and theretofore cease from espousing an opinion that was contrary to the Inquisition’s truth.
A condemned heretic was not given the opportunity for self-defence, for the admission of evidence in his favour or to cross examine the accusers. There was a clear presumption of guilt.
Christian broadcaster Crossroads Television System (CTS) has been found
in violation of broadcasting codes for statements made by evangelical
television personality and minister Charles McVety that implied there
was a “malevolent, insidious and conspiratorial purpose” to the
activities of homosexuals.
On Wednesday, December 8th the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council
launched a viscous attack against free speech and Word TV, knocking the
program from CTS until further notice. Word TV is deemed to be
“malevolent, insidious and conspiratorial” for using the term “sex
parade” and opposing the proposed Ontario Sex Ed curriculum.
Ontario's prostitution laws will remain in effect while government lawyers mount an appeal of a landmark ruling that essentially decriminalized prostitution.
Charles McVety, an evangelical leader and Christian activist, says the legislation introduced by New Democratic MP Bill Siksay would permit men to walk into women’s public showers and washrooms on the pretext that they self-identify as a woman.
Charles McVety, president of The Institute for Canadian Values said in a news release he applauded the move by the government, but had hoped for tougher sentences.
"We have demanded 15-year minimum sentences to keep perpetrators off the street and our children safe. No loving mother or father in the country would agree that a one-year sentence is justice for someone who rapes a child," said McVety.
On Monday, October 4th the Department of National Defence is set to hold a celebration at its Ottawa headquarters to commemorate Islamic Heritage Month. The keynote speaker will be Imam Dr. Zijad Delic, executive director of the Canadian Islamic Congress, an organization well known for its radicalism.

By Appointing Strict Constructionist Supreme Court Judges
Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin is a well respected leader in Canada. Her father Ernest Gietz, was a tremendous Evangelical Lay Preacher in Alberta. We applaud Ms. McLachlin for her strong conviction and authenticity in presenting today’s judicial philosophy but good people can differ and debate. With seven out of nine Supreme Court Justices eligible to retire, it is critical that the process to replace them, be wholly transparent.
Leaders from various family focused groups with over 100,000 active members are calling for Premier Dalton McGuinty to withdraw the new Ontario Sex Education Curriculum, set to be implemented this September. The leaders are organizing Ontario parents to protest the new program by withdrawing their children from school on the Monday after Mother’s Day, May 10th and joining a proposed rally in at 12:00 noon in Toronto. The location will be announced at www.StopCorruptingChildren.ca .
Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin decreed on May 5th, 2001: “the lawmaking role of the judge has dramatically expanded. Judicial lawmaking is no longer always confined to small, incremental changes. Increasingly, it is invading the domain of social policy, once perceived as the exclusive right of Parliament and the legislatures.”
"This is a crime that, to me, is one of the most heinous one human being can commit against another," said Ontario Provincial Police Commissioner Julian Fantino..."You can't in good conscience call that adequate punishment for such a brutal crime," Fantino said.

She gave him life and was the only parent he ever knew. In the way she snapped photos of him sleeping and playing happily, she was like any other adoring mother. But she also committed unspeakable acts to his little body, turning him into a human sex toy in her pornographic broadcasts.
During the January 2010 World Economic Summit in Davos Switzerland Prime Minister Stephen Harper, the current Chairman of the G-20, presented the upcoming agenda for the G-20 and G-8 meetings to be held in Ontario in June. Many were shocked to hear this Conservative leader declare that “we also know markets need governance. For the new global economy, the G-20 is what we have.” Harper went on to speak as an avowed Keynesian committed to a one world global economy, creating a world “we have been trying to build since 1945”.
As Christmas draws near we all yearn for peace on earth, good will toward men. Polls show that 97% of Canadians celebrate Christmas. The other day I received a Christmas card with scripture versus and all from my friend, a Hindu. The world celebrates Christmas but doesn’t know Christ. Can you imagine if every Christian in Canada shared the Gospel of Jesus Christ with five others. The result would surely be revival. But can revival occur by simply explaining Jesus Christ intellectually?
ISPs would be required to report child porn The federal government's plan to slap Internet service providers with stiff fines or jail time if they don't report child porn appears set for an easy ride through the House of Commons.
The Conservative government introduced new legislation Tuesday that will compel Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to report to law enforcement officials if they find or learn of child pornography on their networks.
A review of Going Rogue: An American Life, by Sarah Palin (Harper Collins, 2009, 413 pp) “Regardless of the outcome of this election, it just got a whole lot more interesting.” Those words were spoken by an American media commentator in August 2008, just minutes after John McCain announced that his running mate and the potential next Vice-President of the United States was Sarah Palin, the Governor of Alaska. Truer words were likely not heard since about Sarah Palin.
Freedom is the most valuable right a government can ensure. That sweet fragrance of being free, to set your own path, worship your own way and speak your mind without fear. To raise your children the way you see fit, chose a job, and travel whenever you wish.
For thirty years I have studied revival. I have travelled the world and witnessed revival in Korea, Columbia, Nigeria, Ghana and Jamaica. I am tired of studying and seeing revival in other countries. It is time for revival in Canada.
In 2003 all of us were caught off guard when Roy McMurty, Chief Justice of the Ontario Court of Appeals of Ontario, redefined marriage to include same sex couples.
Section 293 of the Criminal Code of Canada explicitly bans polygamy and threatens offenders with a five-year prison term. Bigamy is named as a similarly serious crime in Section 290.

If the New Democrats hold the balance of power after the Jan. 23 election, as seems possible, the issue of proportional representation election reform will be thrust front and centre as one of Jack Layton's short list of conditions for supporting a Tory or Liberal minority government.
More than 90 percent of Canadians are concerned about the distribution of child sexual abuse images, and child sexual exploitation is ranked as one of the top three concerns for parents regarding children.

OTTAWA – The federal Conservatives used a showy news conference and a dozen ministers across the country to announce proposed changes to the national sex-offender registry that do not go as far as police or victims' advocates have called for.

Allan Wachowich, the Chief Justice of Alberta is also, fittingly, one of his province's ablest judges. On the bench for more than 30 years - the longest tenure of any federal judge in Alberta - Mr. Justice Wachowich has, since being elevated to associate chief justice in 1993 and Chief Justice in 2001, often assigned himself the court's toughest and most controversial cases.
The Vermont legislature has fast-tracked a bill to legalize physician-assisted suicide, and California may not be far behind. If the legislatures in these states do vote to redefine physician-assisted suicide as a legitimate and legal “medical treatment,” a large part of the blame, strange though it may sound, can be laid at the feet of postmodernism.
By the mid 1970’s radical changes had taken hold in western society, with massive attacks on family and faith. The Roe vs. Wade court decision legalized abortion in the ....

Dear William Thorsell: Further to my conversation with your Media Director: Does the Darwin exhibit at the ROM display or make note of his book The Descent of Man? Does the exhibit reference Darwin's racism? Does the exhibit display the original title of Darwin's book, On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life?

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the most complicated geo-political problem on earth. Since the day God promised the land to Abraham and his descendants, Isaac and Jacob – Israel as recorded in Genesis 13:15, there has been conflict in the land. Unfortunately, the toll of personal tragedy in the region is immense. Over the past 30 years, I have visited Israel 20 times witnessing so much pain and suffering on both sides.
At Christmas we celebrate the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ. There is nothing closer to His heart than little children. In fact, Jesus said “whatsoever you do unto the little children you do unto me”. There is no better way to celebrate Christmas than to help children in need.
After nine years of Brian Mulroney as Prime Minister, Canadians rejected his form of Red Tory Conservatism. The Gallup Poll in 1993 recorded just 15% national support for Prime Minister Mulroney, the lowest for any Prime Minister in Canadian history.
The world was horrified to read the reports of a Canadian homosexual school teacher facing charges in Thailand “having sex with boys under 15, which carry prison sentences of up to 20 years”. It is shameful that Thailand, known for child prostitution, has tougher child protection laws than our own country. In Canada it is legal to have sex with 14 year-old children..
