Three men - who disappeared between 2010 and 2012 - are recently - and only recently - being identified as victims of alleged serial killer Bruce McArthur. Abdulbasir "Basir" Faizi, 44, and Majeed Kayhan were both from Afghanistan, and Skandaraj "Skanda" Navaratnam, was a 40-year-old Sri Lankan refugee.

Why do practicing Muslims fast during the month of Ramadan? And why do many even look forward to that month?
"We are going to impose an agenda on coverage by dealing with issues and subjects that we choose to deal with," said Richard M. Cohn, ex-senior producer of CBS political news. This is the sad reality of the Canadian media today. What can we Canadians do about it?
As I explained on a lecture tour of South Africa (Goldstone Land) from which I have just returned, the answer is in what happened behind closed doors at the Security Council in New York in the weeks and months following the 1967 war.
