A different and superior era and culture in many ways....

McCrae's poem is one of the great expressions of courage, fighting a just war, and not surrendering.

Take up our quarrel with our foe....”



In Flanders Fields 
Canadian Army

In Flanders Fields the poppies blow 
Between the crosses row on row, 
That mark our place; and in the sky 
The larks, still bravely singing, fly 
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago 
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, 
Loved and were loved, and now we lie 
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe: 
To you from failing hands we throw 
The torch; be yours to hold it high. 
If ye break faith with us who die 
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow 
In Flanders fields.

Remembering what is already Forgotten. McCrae's insight.

A man who saw reality.

In the long war with Islam - 1400 years in fact - it is worth remembering what cannot be forgotten. Freedom is won not by pieties, UN declarations, post-modern moralizing or cultural relativity. Throughout history freedom from centralized despotisms, fascistic ideals, communal slavery, and various strains of Orientalism has only been achieved through war, sacrifice, blood, death, effort, pain, and realism. Boys turned to dust. Men broken. Nations crashed. The foolhardiness of human existence exposed. Questions about why it is so, about war, about the 'natural preoccupation' to quote Churchill, of mankind. The existential and mortal threats posed by the darker side of human nature. Forget not.

Modern Canada has no right to celebrate Vimy Ridge

The hypocrisy of a country that does not have a military is galling.

Bookmark and Share Canada does not have the right to celebrate Vimy Ridge Easter weekend 1917. In fact Vimy Ridge and other military victories are anathema to what, apparently, the socialist state of Canada stands for. According to the media, the chattering nomenclatura, and the educational systems, the reigning ethos of Canadian society is post-modern multi-‘cult’-ism. Nothing matters, all ideas and cultures are the same, and military strength and defense are to be eschewed for genuflecting at the UN and allow minority cultures to dictate our foreign and domestic policy. In short we should hate our own history. Why then do these hypocrites celebrate Vimy?
