    Shari'a, Canadian style.

    Let's give it to them! All able-bodied Canadian Muslim males would be required to serve in the military and fight Jihads for justice all over the world just as their faith requires them too. Hey, all or nothing I say. If they want Shari'a, then give it all. No one could argue that Canada was...

    Bilingualism required in Canadian Forces: Good or Bad?

    Looking at the situation in Iraq and the rest of Arabia right now, along with Iran and Afghanistan, it would seem that the presence of foreign soldiers in a land which whose culture they are completely ignorant are causing more and more PR scandals day after day. So my question is this: Would...

    The "evil socialist and capitalist" clishes!

    For the most part, I tend to lean more in favour of a capitalist system with some government intervention. It would seem obvious that there are some aspects of the economy which work better under a capitalistic system (could one immagine a government department trying to figure out how many...
