  • Capitalism

    I was just watching Capitalism: A Love Story, not one of my favourite movies from Michael Moore, and something struck me: capitalism only works in locally contained markets.

  • Time Flies

    I can’t believe how fast the months are speeding by. July has rushed on by and with a week left, I am now looking forward to figure out what my days and nights hold for me in August, September and onwards. Yesterday, I went to Toronto for Cross Media TO, a great conference that I’ll… Read more

  • Why I Don’t Sponsor Children in Third World Countries

  • Government and Military: Bad Decisions

    So I just read an article that says Canada is going to buy sixty-five Lockheed F-35 Joint Strike Fighter jets and at one time, I might have been excited about this, but since the fighters were first created, a number of issues with them have appeared, and for the cost of sixteen billion dollars, I… Read more

  • The Right Career For Me

    The more I think about it, the more I realize that I don’t know what the right career for me would be. I’d love to travel and write, but that’s not really a career that I qualify for, nor one I can easily do at this point. I’m not getting any younger and really have… Read more
