An "historic" piece of writing?

Yesterday, I read one of the most interesting pieces of political reporting and analysis that I've come across in a long time. Ron Graham writes about how it came to be that Mr. Ignatieff came to be leader of the Liberal party of Canada. It's published on line here.

You'll need a cup of coffee and the best part of half an hour, but if this is the only political analysis you read between now and the next election, it will serve you well!

If Ignatieff fails to "seize the crown", this piece by Ron Graham may well be noted as one of the most influential pieces of Canadian Political writing since.... well:  since Trudeau wrote for Cite Libre!

Victory for Boisson

We can thank the Lord for the victory in the courts for Rev. S. Boisson of Red Deer Alberta. He had been persecuted for writing a letter to a local paper expressing his beliefs about homosexuality. The Alberta HRC had gagged him from speaking and ordered him to pay a fine to a complainant. The ECP Center assisted in fighting this onerous ruling and have recorded a win for freedom of religion and expression for Christians in this country. Read about it here.
