Canada's writers and journalists: late to a revolutionThe Canadian Charger
February 17, 2011
Since January 25, during Egypt's pro-democracy revolution, many of the country writers and journalists were harassed, denied access to internet and cell phone service, forced to communicate lies to readers and viewers, lost their jobs and some were shot dead. Where were Canada's writers and journalists from all of this? Why have they not issued statements? Why did PEN wait until February 4 to issue a statement?

Western media vs. Al JazeeraThe Canadian Charger

Hypocrisy of Western mediaThe Canadian Charger
March 3, 2011

During the winter term we have had 89 students learning Arabic. We are celebrating with this concert.
Harper and murdered Aboriginal women The Canadian Charger
March 9, 2011
Dawn Crey was a beautiful girl, from the Stolo First Nation on British Columbia’s majestic Fraser River. But she and her sisters and brother had a tragic childhood: their father suddenly died, and the four children were taken from their mother and placed in three separate foster homes, far from their community. Dawn and her sister Faith never healed from the scars of that abusive home. Both would later die working Vancouver's east side streets.
Springtide in the Arab worldThe Canadian Charger
March 16, 2011
Unplanned uprisings, like other forms of what sociologists call collective behavior, do not just happen. They happen when the social conditions are ripe for them. The sociologist Neil Smelser proposed a value-added theory of collective behavior which we can apply to the crises shaking the Arab world.
Wireless radiation: The Charger exposes government siding with industry The Canadian Charger
March 16, 2011
Studies show an increase risk of cancers for those living within 350 metres of cell phone and broadcast antennas, at exposure levels well below federal guidelines. But when communities oppose wireless tower placements, the final arbitrator is Industry Canada; and they often side with the Telecom Industry.
Gaddafi and the Libyan uprisingThe Canadian Charger
March 16, 2011
Despite all the reports of mass murder and destruction wreaked on innocent civilians in Libya by dictator Mu'ammar Gaddafi's home-grown thugs and foreign mercenaries, one cannot but be shocked by the fact that this criminal and thief still manages to delude some people who are fooled by his cheap tricks.
