The crashes of international airliners continue. In the past two weeks we became aware of three major crashes with multiple deaths.

Unfortunately today in someways is no different, except that everyone survive... this time.

Flyer beware!

Poorly maintained aircraft, poorly trained staff, lax regulations, flying in very poor conditions all contribute to crashes and death.

Canada's Most Wanted follow up

In the two weeks following the posting of pictures and info on international criminals who had entered Canada illegally 5 of them have been captured due to the photos. In one case an off duty police officer spotted one of the men after seeing the photos being posted. In other cases calls have been made to authorities by neighbours and co-workers.

In the USA photos of wanted criminals are widely published but in Canada authorities shy away from using the media in this way. It is about time that the manhunt for serious criminals in Canada includes letting the public know who is wanted, why and where they were last known to be.

Terrorism Attacks A Quiet Peaceful Norway

Canadians need to be prepared. It is only a matter of time before one of these attacks hit a major city near us.

We need to remember that only a couple of years ago the Toronto 19 were arrested while planning a huge truck bomb for downtown Toronto.

Wind storm causes chaos.

A wind storm at a summer concert blows over the main stage injuring two and causing others to flee. This is a similar event to an outdoor festival in Alberta in 2009 where several were injured.
