Milk Released in 2008 and starring Sean Penn this Gus Van Sant film brings the story of Harvey Milk to the big screen. For obvious reasons I like pro-gay films, but what I liked about this film is that it isn’t just a feel good story. The gay character isn’t …
Rick Mercer unloads on Timmies
So this image is us currently at the top of Reddit Canada, posted by /u/JeffLaRue. And I cannot help but laugh at how easily Canadians get played by their media. This entire post is nonsense. Do you really think Rick Mercer gives a shit about minimum wage workers? The Liberal …
Premier Wynne and the Big Bad Vote Grab

I think we might be screwed
I really liked the show “The Newsroom”. And this clip in particular sticks with me. I want out of Ontario. It is a terribly run province and after years of Liberal rule under McGuinty and Wynne I don’t think it can recover. In the 14 years I have lived here …
