Appreciate your writings of perspective related to recent and present political decisions and global events. While I agree with most, confused at some, at least the writings provoke thinking and research.

Sometimes it feels like more of a to see people who have influenced our beleifs die than even close friends! Well, me and my wife have old school conservative beleifs in our heavily liberal Ontario Canada. We've been busy. If someone is a conservative right now they should be busy! Thankfully, we are seeing many our age flip to conservative values lately. What felt hopeless is now a fight and we know the stakes . Like the saying goes; "when the pendulum swings to far to one side..." hopefully there will be a huge correction and it will stabilize for a long time after people look back at the insanity going on! Cheers!

The demise of Conservatism was enabled by the education CYSTem that taught cultural marxism, then political correctness, then wokist wonkering and finally DIEverSH*Tty. John Dewey the progressive fool imposed what I dare say was idiotic progressiveness but the die was cast here when soft LIEBERALISM came on the scene with Lester Pearson I recall long ago John Diefenbaker and the fall of religions where apostacy was the trigger for mainline churches like the Anglican, United Church and others to embrace homosexuality and abortion and other LIEberal abominations. Today those denominations are mostly gone. Empty stone churches dot the landscape of small villages and burgs, as a testimonial to what happens when LIEberal idiocy infuses religion as a start and then eventually we see apostasy become the policy. I recall Ted Scott, PRIMATE of the Anglican Church and his BS statement that indicated his stupidity way back in my life when I was active in the fight for the Conservative creed but he said, "HOMOSEXUALITY IS A SOCIAL REALITY AND THEREFORE WE MUST LEARN TO NORMALIZE AND ACCEPT IT." I WROTE BACK IN THE LOCAL PAPER MY SARCASTIC REBUFF THAT " social realities of theft, lies and other criminality exist so we must also learn to normalize and accept them too." Ted Scott was in a high position in the Anglican Church but this is all from memory and I recall the glee of my first boss, a Salvation Army officer who was pleased with my attacks on what turned out to be a sick society that had denied all its beliefs with religions parotting the pathetic pedantry and destruction of a nation made worse by successive LIEBERAL governments.

That had to be almost sixty years until Pee ERRor turdo the father of the bastard child Justin grew to be elected over the last ten years wrecking what I now call CANCUCKistan. Everything has gone to hell and abortion made way to the MAID programs that now euthanize people by the tens of thousands and are depressed, or infirm, or homeless, etc.

So here we are in 2026 witnessing the facism of the LPC now under "Carnage" the OWO slime minister dragging the nation down to the filth of the gutters, Weed, vapes, alcohol and illegal drugs that destroy the youth of the nation are now common in cities.

"What is to be will be, what ain't to be might just happen and has. I have already stated over the last three years now that all ministers I known and meet as I ply my profession believe we are in the end times as prophesied in the Holy Bible.

My own minister stated this three years ago from the pulpit. Not to be demoralising but the evil that flows like liquid manure has saturated Parliament and the stench of hypocrisy leading the parade wafts strong from all Canadian political parties except the Christian Heritage Party and the Conservative Party of CanCUCKistan.

The police are behaving as criminals and converting as time passes to a Gestapo like presence that now sees the bastards knocking on doors to warn the public from criticizing "Carnage." Actually the bastards in blue uniforms are not good enough to be called Gestapo while the LIEberal Party murders the unborn by abortion and the elderly by euthanasia.

Once more hell hath enlarged itself.

Yes Roger Scruton was a real sage. You are lucky, John, to have studied with him. He left us way too soon. We could use his wise — and always good-humored — counsel now.

After leaning left-libertarian in my misspent youth, by the time I got old and figured out that I was a conservative, it was too late—there's hardly any sane conservatism left ; - )
