Ka-Boom, Catholic Schools Imploding. Cui Bono?

TORONTO – Italian Catholics are, in the main, among the most observant of the religious rites and rituals of the Christian [Catholic] faith. They form the cultural bases of their social juridical organization. Many of the religious tenets call for thought and behaviour that promotes human dignity, responsibility and cohesion. A Catechism – guidebook – provides a pathway for “moral behaviour” for its adherents (the faithful). 

Provincial Liberals on the Hunt for Votes in the Italian Community

TORONTO – The election is at least two years away, but it is never too early to get ready, most notably after two disastrous campaigns based on nebulous (I am being overly kind), contentious social policies and uncommitted campaign organization. The Provincial Liberal “brain trust”  did its very most to alienate its traditional base in a zealous pursuit  of the “progressive” electorate, which had already migrated to the NDP. Outcomes would have been predictable – even for neophytes.
