- Some Parting Words October 20, 2012When I began to ponder the things that I might address in this my last column in this space, I was confronted with many issues and subjects that are both important and timely. After some contemplation, I realized that parting words should be the most important words you can leave behind. They should be the […]mediaguy
- Behind Closed Doors – The Human Rights Crisis In North Korea September 25, 2012From 10,000 feet, you can’t see North Korea but you can see the Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI), where my wife Margaret and I, through our organization The Forerunner Project, presented with CIGI, Behind Closed Doors – The Human Rights Crisis in North Korea. How did we get involved in Human Rights in North […]mediaguy

- More Inconvenient Truth August 21, 2012Since the beginning of the Climate Change War, I have attempted to bring to light some of the less reported information to readers in order to provoke a more informed perspective on the matter. I have been criticized for doing so, but I hardly noticed. Some people feel, I suppose, that the status quo should […]mediaguy

This quote is the summation of Dr Harold Lewis resignation (a 67 year member) from the American Physical Society. This is an important moment in science history.

- Privacy For Sale July 24, 2012On a recent flight from Costa Rica to Toronto, I was required to show my passport 9 times and was searched 3 times, most of which was required because of a flight connection in the US. The ordeal brought on flashes of wartime movies where suspicious Gestapo officers checked travelers’ papers on night trains to […]mediaguy
- Who Is Trying to Destroy RIM?? June 19, 2012One of the really nice things about Canadian summers are the long days. Our beautiful, pleasantly warm evenings are unequaled in most places on earth.

- The Man Who Quit Money May 19, 2012Amongst the din of hundreds of offbeat stories with sizzling headlines, there occasionally comes one that totally captures your attention. The headline was a simple, but seemingly impossible idea – “ The Man Who Quit Money”. I wondered if this could be a real story of a rational, sane person who had found a way […]mediaguy
- Could The World Do The Unthinkable? April 21, 2012I have been producing this radio program for a year and I have learned a lot. One of the things I have learned about “change” is that some things have to be modeled before they gain enough credibility to get wide acceptance. Many people need to “see” something before they “get it”. In other words, […]mediaguy
- That’s Not Science! March 26, 2012The problem with being a forerunner is that we don’t accept most of what we are told. We have to see for ourselves. This may arise from having experienced fraudulent authority in the past or from realizing that most of what is wrong with the world is their doing. In the past 50 years, science […]mediaguy

Saving Luna (film)
I recently saw a “Saving Luna” a powerful documentary film which involved the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) and their administrative bungling in the rather insignificant matter of dealing with a over-friendly Orca whale. The whale was just trying to be friendly with humans because it had become separated from its pod. The Baby [...]
