NO EXCUSES, DOWN TO BUSINESS

I don't even know what to say. It has been another three months in between posts for me so if you average that out that means in the past 6 months I have posted 3 rants... including this one. I back in school, grudgingly, which means I will be following politics a lot closer, you know, with me being a poli sci major and all. So I plan to offer up lots of insight in to the goings on around this world and you can take that for what it is... pure brilliance.

I don't plan on getting into too much with this here rant however I do plan another one for later on today which will touch up on all of the stuff I've been talking about since I started this thing. The Liberal leadership race is still on, there is all an NDP convention of some sort, Parliament will be coming back into session soon, Harper is still doing a great job, and many other interesting things. There is no lack of political events happening for me to take up pages of space and hours of reading for your eyes.

You may be surprised to hear this but this rant of mine will be updated weekly at the very least but with the way my school schedule has worked itself out I don't think 3 or 4 posts a week are out of the question. I'm back in school with two Political Science classes: Canadian Political Parties and Comparative Politics so that should force me to read and follow politics enough to have something decent to offer to you. Even my Legal Thinking class will get the ball rolling with very interesting subjects such as marketing human organs, prostitution, adultery, capital punishment, and abortion.

I will leave you now to wonder what may lay ahead for The Canadian Rant in the upcoming days, weeks, and months. Who knows? You may just learn something.

This rant has become a somewhat sporadic habit. But I am looking forward to hearing about selling kidneys, sex, sex, death, and birth control ("marketing human organs, prostitution, adultery, capital punishment, and abortion").

Also, who taught you what an average is? What you have here is more of a sum.

BACK FROM ANOTHR HIATUS: OVERVIEW

It has been an atroceous three months since my last posting. I apologise for this and offer up no excuse for my absense from this place. I had final exams to worry about, and work of course but nothing that could have prevented me from posting a little more often then every three months. And now I'm two and a half months into a five month long summer with no reason not to do this so here I am. So what has happened since March 23rd that deserves honourable mention on my beloved post. Well the World Cup is currently entering the 2nd round of competition and I know what you might be thinking: who cares about soccer? It's a funny thing the World Cup, it is like nothing else. Even people who never watch or follow soccer of any form seem to find themselves entangled in the World Cup whenever it comes around. While it is the most popular sport in the entire world it is not as popular in North America where we're more focused on hockey, football, baseball, basketball, and golf. And...

BACK FROM MY RANTING HIATUS It's been awhile since the last time I posted a rant on here and for that I apologize. Of course there are reasons behind my procrastination. Spring break, lots of birthdays, school, and work have all thrown their hats at me in recent weeks but now I am back... and better than ever. Today's rant will not have a specific focus other than catching up for both you and I on Canada's and the rest of the world's events. And what a busy couple of weeks it has been. There have been numerous international, national, and provincial headlines that have caused some serious controversy, change, and reaction from all over. So I will not procrastinate any longer and get right into it. The David Emerson appointment and crossing of the floor still remains to be an issue here in Canada as people have demanded his resignation or a byelection. There was a mock byelection that was supposed to put pressure on Emerson and the Conservatives to give in, which of cour...

SEPTEMBER 11th, 2006: 5 YEARS LATER Here is the transcript of Prime Minister Stephen Harper's speech yesterday: Good evening. Today is the 5th anniversary of the terrible events of September 11th, 2001. I am speaking to you from the Hall of Honour in the Centre Block of Parliament. With me are some Canadians whose lives have been touched by 9/11 in ways that most of us can't even begin to imagine. Men and women who lost loved ones in the attacks on the World Trade Centre. Tanja Tomasevic, who lost her husband, Vladimir; Danny Eisen who lost his cousin, Danny; and Maureen and Erica Basnicki, who lost their husband and father, Ken. I asked them to join me because words alone are not enough to express what needs to be said today. As we pay tribute to the 24 Canadians who lost their lives on that infamous day five years ago, their family members remind us that they were real people with real lives. Lives that were cut short - deliberately so - by a murderous act of terrorism. Like...
