Parliament Hill: Unearthed artifacts tell pre-Confederation story

Parliament Hill: Unearthed artifacts tell pre-Confederation story If Parliament Hill has sometimes seemed throughout its history like a boozy, male-dominated powder keg, it’s worth noting that’s partly what it was built on. Recent archeological digs outside some of the main buildings in the precinct have turned up tens of thousands of artifacts from the early 19th century. They tell a story of life before Sir John A. Macdonald, before MPs and senators, and before Ottawa was even called Ottawa. Starting in 1827, the area that is now Parliament Hill was called Barrack Hill, a staging ground for the British Royal… View Article

Supreme Court to rule on Harper government’s sentencing law for gun crimes

Supreme Court to rule on Harper government’s sentencing law for gun crimes The Supreme Court of Canada is set to rule Tuesday on a key part of the Conservative government’s tough-on-crime agenda.

The Ontario Court of Appeal struck down the law in 2013, calling it “cruel and unusual punishment,” so the provincial attorney general and its federal counterpart are appealing the ruling. The Appeal Court struck down both the three-year mandatory minimum for a first offence of possessing a loaded prohibited… View Article

Canadians ditching cable

Canadians ditching cable A new report says more Canadians are choosing to cancel their cable TV and satellite packages and there’s no sign of the migration slowing down. The Convergence Consulting Group says about 95,000 fewer households had a cable TV or satellite subscription in 2014. That’s a dramatic increase in the number of people without TV cable packages.

Brahm Eiley, president of Toronto-based firm that completed the study, says he expects the industry to lose another 97,000 in 2015 as the shift away from paying for traditional TV services… View Article

Citi Economist Says It Might Be Time to Abolish Cash

Citi Economist Says It Might Be Time to Abolish Cash Would this save the world economy? The world’s central banks have a problem. When economic conditions worsen, they react by reducing interest rates in order to stimulate the economy. But, as has happened across the world in recent years, there comes a point where those central banks run out of room to cut — they can bring interest rates to zero, but reducing them further below that is fraught with problems, the biggest of which is cash in the economy. In a new piece, Citi’s Willem Buiter looks at this problem,… View Article

Harper Has Destroyed Canada–Russia Relations

Harper Has Destroyed Canada–Russia Relations Relations between the two countries have been strained recently, but a historical overview shows it was not always so. Canada–Russia relations have ranged from amiable to openly hostile. For a country supposedly keen on its role as an international peacekeeper, Canada has failed to impress the world with its recent position on Ukraine. A brief history lesson will show that Canada can play an intermediary role in de-escalating East–West tensions and has done so before; but instead, the Harper administration has chosen to follow NATO’s lead and refused to work towards any peaceful resolution to… View Article

Police Couldn’t Respond to This Call Fast Enough; What Happened Next Was TOTALLY Unexpected

Police Couldn’t Respond to This Call Fast Enough; What Happened Next Was TOTALLY Unexpected Police response times in America are pretty horrendous, which is why it’s critical Americans exercise their Second Amendment right to own a firearm, because let’s face it, a lot can happen in eight minutes (the average response time for a call). Well, one older gentleman discovered a pretty funny way to get the cops moving just a tad bit faster and reduce the response time dramatically. This man is a genius.                           http://www.youngcons.com/police-couldnt-respond-to-this-call-fast-enough-what-happened-next-was-totally-unexpected/
