Frank Kennedy The Ontario election is locked in – unless the Libs lose all the ballot boxes the night before the polls open, it’s still going to happen, guys. At least the provincial Libs can’t change the date because they don’t think they can win. They’re stuck with it.
All parties are poll worshippers and if the party bosses don’t get their ... (Continue reading)

Phil Spidell, the co-president of Silverstone Securities Inc., the most profitable securities firm in the U.S., barged raging mad into the office of Art Hoople, the co-president of the firm.
“Art, did you see the front-page article in the Wall Street Journal today about us making $68 million each last year? It’s ... (Continue reading)

Great news! I just got elected president and CEO of the newly formed Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Canadian Christians & Jews (SPCCCJ) at a closed-door meeting of the club held recently in Toronto.
Someone ran against me for president, but I ... (Continue reading)

Who’s trying to run a steamroller over our justice system and end our traditional family values?
Here’s my list: the human rights tribunals (a sleepover for lib-leaning feminists). The lawyer who came up with house arrests. Lawyers who spend half their life in judges’ chambers making deals. Lawyers who are adept ... (Continue reading)

The same-sex “marriage” issue is not dead. Just because Stephen Harper says it’s dead doesn’t make it dead. In show business, they have an old expression: it’s not over until the fat lady sings. Harper will be ... (Continue reading)

I warn readers that I just had one of my most outrageous and embarrassing dreams ever. The dream started when I was just beginning my column. The phone rang. I answered it. It was Bob Rae.
“Is that you, Frank Kennedy?”
“Yes, is that you, ‘Bungling Bob’ Rae?”
Rae ... (Continue reading)

It’s hard writing about Queen’s Park, an institution that needs 175 Peter Kormoses to liven it up. This is a dreadfully boring era. Years ago if this happened, a good duel would lighten things up. Now for excitement, you’ve got Premier Dalton McGuinty doing hopscotch for the media on the first day of school, only to find that the minister of education, Sandra Pupatello, was ...

I borrowed $10 from my wife, Ileen, for a Liberal party membership in order to pick the new leader of the federal Liberal party at the convention Nov. 29-Dec. 3 in Montreal. She objected to doing so. She felt all new members should put up their own money. She said that I wasn’t a sincere Liberal. I was just going down there to spy on ... (Continue reading)

So far, Canada’s new Conservative government has done precious little to promote the sanctity of human life, but pro-lifers should not give up on the Conservative party. There is good reason to hope for major pro-life gains from the Harper Conservatives after the next federal election.
Consider what Prime Minister Stephen Harper has already accomplished. ... (Continue reading)

One day recently, I burst into Premier Dalton McGuinty's office in Queen's Park, hotly pursued by a number of his aides. "I've come to save you, Dalton!" I yelled.
"Sir, it's that Frank Kennedy - he just stormed by us," some flunky explained to the premier. "I'm afraid he's become unhinged. Shall I call security?" ... (Continue reading)

Watching Judge Marshall Rothstein, our newest Supreme Court justice, perform was like watching Wayne Gretzky in his prime dodge, circle, hide and evade. Wayne had the aid of a hockey cop dressed in a uniform similar to Wayne’s, who was ready to hospitalize any opponent aiming to hospitalize Wayne.
What did we know about ... (Continue reading)

It’s not going to be tough to say goodbye to the greatest collection of tiny talented, Liberal-leaning radical feminists in the world. Nor to a similar collection of hedonistic, loyal, lightweight Liberal males also owing their unwarranted rise to our highest court to the slavish worship of Pierre Elliott Trudeau’s faulty musings. (Pierre used to say that the government had ... (Continue reading)

I saw a well-dressed man toss a perfectly good newspaper into a garbage can and disappear into the subway. Being a bit curious, I reached into the can and retrieved it. It was a Toronto Star. I was shocked by the blaring headlines: “Federal Liberals crushed!” Underneath were sub-headings: “Stephen Harper wins massive majority,” “Only pro-life Liberals survive” and “Paul Martin loses seat.’...

A longtime friend of mine, an expatriate from the United Kingdom via Toronto, living permanently in Quebec, is voting for the Bloc and so are almost all of his English-speaking friends. They want to rid themselves of the Gomery-tarred Liberals. (And there isn’t a pro-life candidate to be found.) If this becomes a trend in the forthcoming election, maybe the Liberals in Quebec ...

In 1999, we reported that taxpayers had already coughed up $2,611,828 in rent for the operation of the Toronto-based abortuary of Henry Morgentaler, according to Ontario Freedom of Information and Privacy documents obtained by the Toronto Free Press newspaper.
Morgentaler is still on the multi-million dollar gravy train. According to information obtained in a new Ontario Freedom of Information and Privacy search ... (Continue reading)
