Tom Green and Ezra Levant

....two names that you won't normally hear in the same sentence. But you will tonight. I have a pile of respect for both of these people, for different reasons - and want to point you to some good information that is worth a read and a watch.

First, you likely heard about the ridiculous show Red Eye on Fox, and the distasteful, insulting comments that they made about the Canadian Military last week. You can read the story here. Tom Green, who of course is both Canadian and an 'Army Brat', had very harsh words for this situation on his blog, and rightfully so.

You can navigate to Tom's blog by clicking here. Head on down to the March 24 entry and you will see a video embedded in the article. Click on that and watch. Tom hits the nail right on the head.

Now I will move on to Ezra Levant. I do not even have enough space here to explain who Ezra is and what he does, but I want to point you towards the reason he has been in the news a lot lately. It is best summed up in Ezra's own words at this link.

Now head to YouTube and do a search for 'ezra levant human rights commission' (once you get 'ezra levant' in, the rest will come up as an autocomplete). Now watch some of those videos. That is Ezra kicking some ass.

You can read Ezra's blog by following this link. Ezra has written a book on this entire unfortunate situation called Shakedown: How Our Government is Undermining Democracy in the Name of Human Rights. Click on the title to head to Amazon.ca where you can purchase the book. I personally bought the book yesterday in Edmonton and just started reading it tonight - and it is well worth the read.

Short and sweet for tonight - but I recommend you check out the stuff I have posted above. My hats off to both Tom and Ezra.
