Today, October 14th is the day of the Canadian Federal Elections. Please go and vote. It is a privilege, an honour, and a responsibility as a citizen of Canada to go vote in the elections to make sure your voice is heard.
Many of you are already aware that I am a Liberal Party supporter, and I support them mainly based on their foreign policies, as well as tax regulations. The Conservative Party has robbed us by reducing one tax and increasing another one. The Conservative Party is also too much …

In the recent Global Peace Index Rankings (which ranked 121 rather influential countries), Iraq ranked the lowest, while Norway ranked the highest. US ranked 96th, and Canada ranked 8th.
Yes, Iraq ranked the lowest. It was in 2002 when our brave Southern neighbours set out to the Persian Gulf to turn what was known as a horrible country lead by a horrible dictator who developed WMDs. 6 years later, Iraq ranks the lowest.
MISSION FUCKING ACCOMPLISHED.
Well let’s see. The greatest fundamental mistake of this war was that Iraq is not fit for …

The ongoing debate between Canada’s role in Afghanistan is one of the hot issues in this country, and the opinions vary quite a bit. Many, led by the Liberal Government, feel that Canada’s role in Afghanistan has gone beyond that of peacekeeping and that we should pull out. Others, led by the Conservative government, are quick to assert that Canadian troops do belong there to quell the militants of the opposite side of the Axis.
I’m not writing this article to debate whether our role in Canada is right or not, …

The Sey-To-Sky highway, which is the prettier name for Hwy-99 that runs through British Columbia to connect Vancouver to Whistler (with Squamish, Britannia Beach, Porteau Cove, Lion’s Bay, Horseshoe Bay on the way) is becoming the next big strip of development. As many of you may be aware, the 2010 Winter Olympic games are being held in Whistler BC, and the transportation/accomodation infrastructure between Vancouver and Whistler is going through major developments.
The Sea-to-Sky Highway, which was considered a rather dangerous and difficult highway due to the fact that it’s too …

“It’s like uncovering the ash-ridden lungs of a cancer patient – he may look perfectly fine on the skin and what not, but when you get to the depths of this, the hideous and low-class segments of the city are barren and wasted – adding a black spot to the elegance and the beauty of the city.”
It’s been a few years since the 2010 Vancouver Olympics was confirmed. My home country, Korea, was in the running to but they lost the bid. But hey, I’m in Vancouver, and I get …

Homelessness is a major problem in Vancouver, especially in Downtown Vancouver. They’re everywhere. Most of them are harmless and mentally disabled, but it is simply an unpleasant site. Call me prejudiced and snobby if you like, but Vancouver is supposed to be a nice clean city, and the mere sight of irresponsible, erratic, job-less, and homeless people piss me off and I don’t feel that they belong there. I feel that the value of our city is reduced significantly because of these folks. This is quite a major issue in …
