Commentary This article’s headline seems like an oxymoron, doesn’t it? Since when has there been integrity in advertising, let alone honesty? When one sees print ads, commercials, and other promotional materials from the 1940s or 50s, they look refreshingly wholesome, clean, and patriotic compared to today’s foolish and often filthy advertising. Celebrity endorsements from Hollywood’s…
Cory Morgan: CRTC Should Immediately Dismiss Activist-Based Demands to Remove Fox News
Commentary The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) used to be a regulatory body established by the federal government.

Commentary The World Health Assembly (WHA), the World Health Organization’s decision-making body, will meet later this month for its annual summit. Over 190 countries will be represented at the conference, but Taiwan will not be one of them. The reason for this is because China’s political pressure has prevented Taiwan, a nation of 23 million…
Instead of Smearing Justices, Senators Should Be Asking Them for Ethics Lessons
Commentary The concerted effort by the media and Democrats to delegitimize the Supreme Court is the most consequential attack on our institutions in memory. Make no mistake.
