A recent article in the Toronto Star about the first generation of Roma children in the Toronto school system, Louise Brown's "Roma children perplex local educators" , made me think. They are Europe's Least Wanted – reviled for their unorthodox ways, hounded by white supremacists. Now the sudden arrival of Roma "gypsies" in Ontario has teachers here grappling to connect with...

Teachers across Ontario, Canada have labelled the large numbers of refugee Roma children that have enrolled in the schools in cities such as Toronto and Hamilton as ' some of the most perplexing students in the world '. They have no English, limited education and an often shaky regard for school routines and mores. Puzzled teachers say their Roma students can seem lukewarm to learning, even suspicious...

T his past week has provided yet another example of the fundamental ineptness of the McGuinty government and its I-govern-you-serve attitude towards the residents of Ontario, the very people it is supposed to be serving. Our Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees all citizens equal treatment under the law, but Premier Dalton McGuinty doesn’t seem to give a damn. Those following the court...

Steel Town Originally uploaded by Ontario Wanderer I looked across the Hamilton Harbour just as Defasco put up a lot of smoke and steam at the steel mill. I am still annoyed with myself for not doing the tour in the days when they were still doing them. Too many safety regulations these days to allow the public in. (I expect gyms to be closed soon for the same reason.)

Nothing symbolizes the pathetic gutlessness of Dalton McGuinty’s Ontario government, or that of the provincial police force that is nominally sworn to protect the province’s residents, than the saga now playing out in a Hamilton, Ont., courtroom. The fate of a lawless Ontario enclave, it seems, now rests not with the province’s politicians or its police, but with a pair of scrappy...

Several tremendous matchups tonight in the OUA, highlighted by #1 Carleton visiting #9 Lakehead as the lone remaining undefeated teams in Ontario square off in Thunder Bay. A nice battle at the post should ensue as 6'6" sophomore Yoosrie Salhia is likely to matchup with fifth-year 6'8" All-Canadian candidate Kevin McCleery in a battle of athleticism and explosiveness vs. finesse and strength....

Funny, our country is multicultural, so why are some better than others? Why is law breaking not equally applied? When has it become a criminal act to carry a Canadian flag? Well, it appears, it's worthy of arrest in Caledonia. The National Post has been doing an outstanding job of covering the news, like Climategate. Now they increase their readership with yet another great article. Ontatio police...

Hey cool, his fist still has little bits of McSorley's skull on it. Maple Leaf fans spend a lot of time talking about heart. We've celebrated the heart and soul guys who've worn the blue and white. We've had our heart broken by Kerry Fraser. And we watch the "All Heart" video every hour on the hour. Or at least I do. Unfortunately, Leaf fans also know a little bit about heart problems. In...
