ARCH-Bishop of Toronto

His Gracelessness, Misogynist Archbishop of Toronto, Thomas Collins, on the appointment of Dr. Henry Morgentaler to the Order of Canada: July 1, 2008 Canada’s highest honour has been debased. Henry Morgentaler has been awarded the Order of Canada. We are all diminished. A community’s…

Morgentaler to get Order of Canada

What a scandal. I don’t like demeaning people, even Dr. Morgentaler, but the idea of giving him this great honour makes no sense. I really appreciated Archbishop Collin’s statement which is a sane, reasoned and respectful response and which tells the truth. Let us pray for all victims of…

RV Adventure, Day 17: Vantage WA to Missoula MT.

The alarm went off at 7AM. The generator was still humming away despite my concerns that it might run out of fuel through the night, and upon inspection it still had over 1/4 of a tank of fuel, meaning it had only burned about $10 through the night - not bad. I setup a pot of coffee, flipped up…
