A former employee at a government funded organization has recently been charged with embezzlement. The name of the organization and the person involved is not what is important, so I am keeping that out. Her story is just an example though. I am not a hard writing journalist, just a

What is love and how do we know when it happens?
“It matters not who you love, where you love, when you love or how you love, it matters only that you love” – John Lennon Ah, tis the question on many a mind is it not? What is love? How do we define it? What is real? What is fake?
Continue readingOffice 15 fails at innovation, no match for Google Docs
If we could all remember when Google Docs came out and revolutionized the way we create, store and edit our work on the internet, we would all be living in a less polarized tech world now. What I mean by that is this: Microsoft just launched its Office 15 product, meant to
Continue readingLeft-winged Fashion for the Ladies
Many liberal women are feminist (well all, because seriously if you’re not a feminist, you’re probably not left-wing). One of the issues I have with some feminists though (the extremist I mean) is the fact when they see a girl dressed in traditional feminine attire, for some reason there is
Continue readingHow the Economy Will Bring an End to Housewives
This later movement is, in my opinion, going to be on the path of extinction though and not even because of the feminists at all. No, what will lead this retro trend to die out is our economy. Today’s economy and what it looks to be in the future does
Continue readingHow One Scandal Can Destroy a Legend
As many of you are probably aware by now (well you should all be aware unless you live under a rock), Jerry Sandusky was arrested and charged with multiple counts of sexual molestation and rape of young boys. However, this article is not about Jerry. This is actually about Joe
Continue readingAmericans still divided on ‘love thy neighbor’
It shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone that even after the Supreme Court ruling in favor of the Obama implemented single payer system in the U.S., at least half of voting Americans still don’t give a damn about their fellow citizens’ struggle for accessible health-care. Any way you look at it, but most importantly
Continue readingOffice Etiquette 101 – How to treat your co-worker
So, you want to be an office rat do you? You know, there are better ways to suck up to your boss other than throwing a colleague under the bus. Taking this route only creates a hostile environment, which completely sucks when the atmosphere started out happy and laid-back. However,
Continue readingBreaking News? Anderson Cooper Comes Out
Now the reason why I added a question mark after “Breaking News” is because well, Anderson Cooper coming out of the closet isn’t really shocking or surprising. It was speculated for years and quite obvious, just like Ricky Martin. It was not that either man screamed gay stereotypes though, but
Continue readingAct Like a Lady, Think Like a Man
The first part of this article is dedicated to the women out there trying to date but running into obstacles. The second part will be for the guys and how they need to start thinking more like a girl (not in your stereotypically sense boys). This is just a quick little
Continue readingExtremes in the battle of the sexes
Those of us living in civilized and modern societies now understand that the future belongs to indistinguishable gender roles for men and women. Roles that do not discriminate between the sexes. A man is now considered every bit as capable as a woman in previously female dominated industries, such as child rearing,
Continue readingOntario Budget passes despite heavy Tory opposition
As if having to contend with a minority government short of one seat from a majority wasn’t enough, we liberals also have to deal with the underhanded methods of the Tory and NDP opposition, both within a position to dictate what can and cannot go into a budget. Whenever
Continue readingDear Chad Kruger: Why we the people hate Nickelback
Dear Chad Kruger, I write to you today to explain the hate that is constantly thrown your way regarding your band, Nickelback. Now, it’s not actually because we think your music is the worst sounding noise similar to nails down a chalk board (well for many it might be). The truth
Continue readingThe minimum wage ad that’s full of B.S.
I’ve recently stumbled on an online video ad while waiting for one of my YouTube videos to load and decided to post it on this blog and criticize it a bit. First, the ad attempts to explain how setting a minimum wage is actually detrimental to the least employable workers (the workers that
Continue readingWhat do vampires, zombies and UFOs have in common?
Nothing! Absolutely nothing… except maybe the fact that stories about supposed zombie people, vampire men and UFOs have captured the headlines of major newspapers in recent months. Freak stories usually reserved for freak story connoisseurs, desperate paparazzi, larpers, the socially awkward and uber superstitious are now leaving their usual publications, namely tabloids, and
Continue readingDear Canada: Get over the “benefits” natives have
Dear Canadian People, Well rather those Canadians who are still apprehensive toward the native people of this land. You know how you kids bitch that they just need to get over things and stop getting hand outs by the government. Well, in my opinion, I think you guys need to
Continue readingSmartGlass, the universal app that keeps giving
SmartGlass is a new Microsoft technology that allows users of multiple devices tv, Xbox, smartphones etc. to link them together for a universal experience in entertainment. It’s a sophisticated application that allows you to use your phone or tablet as a controlling device for your TV, almost like a remote, but with tons
Continue readingShooting in Toronto: A more American Canada?
The shooting in Toronto obviously isn’t a sign that Canada has become completely Americanized, however I fear we as a society are on our way if we continue down the path we are on. This to me has been caused by a mix of different things. It does not help
Continue readingQuintessentially Liberal: The White Suit
Nothing says “I’m a liberal” on a man more than a white suit. It is characteristic of a liberal’s persona of uninhibited style, non-conformist attitude and a sense of individualism, long forgotten and buried by the now conservative staple of boxy black suits sported by the least stylish of the political bunch. In other
Continue readingMen attract bacteria more than women
It’s not guesswork to say that men are generally more filthier than women. It’s not necessary to construe this statement as men don’t wash themselves as often, or that men do not use as many body wash products as women, or even that men actually like being dirtier. Unfortunately, a new scientific study
