| I'm a born and bred Toronto boy who bled blue most of my life. But I've since turned against the Leaf's.

In the case of someone in a bar fight, there's NO reason to use force unless the fight is on-going. In that case, physical intervention would work fine (j... |

| I've been on the four lane highway from Severn Falls to Parry Sound. It's beautiful but residents tell me hard to rationalize. Michael Harris built the Sheppard subway at a cost of $900 million and it is a white elephant - has four car trains instead of six because there's no traffic. Actually Bruc... |

| Kinsella is still lost in the 90's when his book "Web of Hate" was published. He made some good points in his day. But the fact is, the 12 skinheads who are left in Canadian society have become completely irrelevant, and Kinsella knows it. So he keeps banging that boring "hate" d... |
