Quack Tract
A "Down Under" chiropractor is fined $30k for claims he made of his profession curing cancer. Not enough, I say, but still good news. What about up here in the Great White North?
Hundreds protest in Washington for the "right" to not vaccinate their children.
Organizers of an upcoming "natural health" (as if there's an "unnatural health"...) conference on Toronto have canceled the appearance of prominent anti-vaxxer Del Bigtree.
Sentencing hearings have concluded for Jennifer and Jeromie Clark, found guilty of criminal negligence causing death and failing to provide the necessaries of life in the death of their 14-month old son John. During the trial, jurors were shown online searches for natural remedies for gangrene, which included cabbage leaves and cayenne. Jesus H. Christ on a Popsicle stick...
Eye on Islam
Canadians fighting for ISIS in Syria want to come home. One says that it's okay because he hasn't broken any laws here. Wrong, buddy. To paraphrase Batman, we won't kill you. But we don't have to save you, either.
Apple and Google offer an app which here in the West would be deemed creepy-stalky by normal people. What does it do? It tracks the movements of women. I wonder what Gillette would say?
Catholic Watch
Nun abuse - the latest scandal to come out of Catholicism - is coming to the fore.
Miscellaneous
This is an election year in Alberta. Anti-choice groups have been busy pushing their candidates in the Ultra-conservative Party. Despite assurances from UCP leader Jason Kenney that he will not open the abortion "debate", we should not be sanguine about this.
