Browser Wars

[Cross-posted at mnfu.wordpress.com]

I’ve been quite happy with Firefox the last while, but now I’m going to give Opera a shot. This post was written on Opera. So far my impression is: similar… but different. Internet Explorer is still in last place.

Moving...

This is it I reckon, I'm going to be pulling the trigger on moving this blog over to Wordpress. In the past while I have been using WP and I quite like it. I will continue to cross-post for a while, but this is fair warning to start updating bookmarks and the like. The new address will be http://mnfu.wordpress.com which is somewhat easier and faster to type I think. Bear with me as I get all the links, widgets, et cetera switched over.

Silent Complicity

The more we learn about Omar Khadr, the more it becomes apparent just how badly Canada has messed this one up. Now this morning we learn that our government knew that Khadr was being mistreated but that Stephen Harper isn't going to do anything about it. I guess he wants to look "tough" in front of his Washington pals. Or something. This is the man that came to power on the slogan "stand up for Canada" and yet once again he'll sit on his hands when real courage is required. Even Australia and the UK, often considered the two most steadfast US partners in the war on terror, have brought their citizens home from Guantanamo. Now it's our turn. Bring Khadr home. If the evidence warrants it, give him a fair trial in the Canadian justice system. No torture, no kangaroo courts, no legal limbo, no bullshit.

Happy Canada Day!
