Pride Week began organizing when a few Gay men and Lesbians met in 1975

Where do you find out about Canada on any of our media? The CBC might hand out some snooze news from time to time once they get passed their bias coverage.

When Russian media get things wrong, it's hybrid war.Last week, British state-controlled TV created hysteria with a documentary about a putative Russian invasion of Latvia. As usual, while the Latvians were miffed, nobody west of...

The Very Real Nuclear Dilemma
I was raised during a time when nuclear testing was accompanied by air raid sirens. The sound of the sirens left an indelible mark in my mind along with millions of others.
How many nuclear tests do you believe took place since the first one, on July 1945, before ...

I have been having a lot of fun in a special forum assisting in the translation of the books and journals of Gaius Julius Caesar, from Latin to English. Here is one short passage that he wrote shortly before his assassination by his enemies and people he thought were friends. (They would pay the ...
