The local publication Aurora Today publsed an article days ago titled, "Province won't make York Catholic board fly Pride flag." The writer quotes the 2slgbtqia+ activist group PFlag York saying, "It’s disappointing to see the province keep our Pride flag in the closet and for them to continue their preformative celebration of Pride in York Region with their participation in the Pride march." It's actually not disappointing at all. The York Catholic District School Board has the legal right not to fly the pride flag. If those who support PFlag, parents, families, and friends of lesbians and gays, don't agree, they can choose to send their children to other schools. Ontario parents, even those who are Catholic, aren't forced to send their children to separate schools. It's a choice. PFlag also wants the minister of education to force to YCDSB to fly the pride flag. This too is wrong because democratically elected trustees made the decision not to do so. And because the Board is under …
June is the month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Let us give thanks to Christ for His love for us, and the sacrifice He freely made on the cross for our salvation. From the Archdiocese of Toronto website: The Litany of the Sacred Heart was put in its present form by Leo XIII in 1899. At first sight, it can seem a bit strange, with a few unfamiliar images, such as 'Heart of Jesus, desire of the eternal hills, have mercy on us'. But we can truly be blessed if we pray this wondrous litany, a true treasure of Christian prayer, and discover the rich biblical meaning of its individual invocations ... Like the Rosary, the litany is a repetitive prayer, and the repetition of 'Have mercy on us' after each line is, in fact, like our regularly repeating heartbeat, very calming: once we meditate on the references, it gives us insight into the love of God for us in Jesus, and it gives us serenity through the heartbeat of its repetitive pattern. In our frazzled world these days, we especially need …
Devotion to the Sacred Heart is one of the Best Ways to Combat the LGBT Ideology The month of June is marked by Holy Mother Church as being devoted to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. However, this holy and beautiful month is also used by the world to promote the ever-increasing influence of LGBTQ ideology, in direct opposition to that most pure love which stems from the Sacred Heart. Devotion to the Sacred Heart Evidence of the devotion to the Sacred Heart is found in the writings of the Fathers of the Church, such as the Adversus Haereses of Saint Iranaeus and the writings of Saints Justin Martyr and John Chrysostom. The devotion to the Sacred Heart further grew out of a devotion to the Five Wounds of Jesus. The public practice of both laity and clergy was so widespread that in 1353, Pope Innocent VI instituted a Mass in honor of the beautiful mystery of the Sacred Heart. However, Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque is the saint that we most associate with the devotion to the Sacred Heart. Starting …
According to the Vatican Press Office, a telephone conversation took place between the pope and prime minster of Canada, on My 29. Here's the Holy See statement: This afternoon, a telephone conversation took place between His Holiness Pope Leo XIV and His Excellency Mr Mark Carney, Prime Minister of Canada, on the occasion of the publication of the Encyclical Magnifica Humanitas. The importance of developing artificial intelligence from an ethical perspective and with a human-centred approach was discussed. The conversation also touched upon questions of mutual interest at the regional and international levels, with particular reference to efforts in promoting peace, especially in the Middle East and in Ukraine. We all know the trendy topic currently is all about artificial intelligence, and that it should used in a moral way to build the common good. AI must not be employed to devalue the sanctity and dignity of human life. And talk about peace is always good. However, Canada has …
Well put EfLC, as ussual. This alone says everything about who Bob Prevost really is, where he belongs to, and whom he is working for. We get what we deserve. And we deserve to be devoured by the vampires, when we keeps up seeing them as our own
This past Tuesday we celebrated the memorial of St. Phillip Neri. He started the Congregation of the Oratory, and over 500 hundred years later the association is still welcoming priests and lay people to its spiritual and corporal works. Here's the wonderful reflection of the day from the Magnificat. It's written by the saint and titled, "The Hundredfold of the Spiritual Life." It is not a good thing to load ourselves with many spiritual exercises; it is better to undertake a little, and go on with it; for if the devil can persuade us to omit an exercise once, he will easily get us to omit it the second time, and the third, until at last all our pious practices will melt away. We must take care of little faults; for he who once begins to go back and to make light of such defects brings a sort of grossness over his conscience, and then goes wrong altogether…. When a person who has been living a spiritual life for a long time falls into a serious fault, there is no better way of raising …
Mon May 25, 2026 - 3:20 pm EDTTue May 26, 2026 - 7:19 am EDT (LifeSiteNews) — Tech mogul and Tesla founder Elon Musk has promoted a video of LifeSiteNews’ own Frank Wright in which our reporter gives his views on why the both United Kingdom and the West in general are in decline today. The video, which has been seen over 40 million times, was posted by Vox Populi on May 23 and shared by Musk on X without comment on May 24. Wright made the detailed comments – fluently and without notes – while on the Restore Britain campaign trail in Makerfield, England, near Manchester, over the weekend. “I remember when we used to live in a sane, functioning, stable, and relatively happy country,” says Wright in the video, which has been reshared on X by LifeSiteNews. https://x.com/elonmusk/status/2058438480334664146 LifeSite’s @frankwrighter explains why the U.K. is failing in viral video viewed by over 40 million people. pic.twitter.com/kJicpsce0V — LifeSiteNews (@LifeSite) May 25, 2026 …
The Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board trustees will have a special meeting tonight to revisit their neutral flag policy to not fly the pride flag in June, at Board schools and properties. The Archdiocese of Toronto has also made its position public. His Eminence Frank Cardinal Leo made it clear last year before the flag vote was taken that Catholics celebrate the Sacred Heart of Jesus during the month of June. In addition he wrote, We need to make sure that the symbols we use are consistent with our Catholic faith and not borrowed from ideological fora, promoted by lobby groups and endorsed by political movements. We ought to honour and respect our traditions and not compromise the integrity of the faith by using symbols that are contrary to God’s divine revelation. We do good to use our own symbols to tell our own story without resorting to trendy, misguided and inadequate symbols that do not represent us as Catholics but rather contribute to confusion, distortions and …
Today Pope Leo XIV released his encyclical letter, Magnifica Humanitas: On Safeguarding the Human Person in the Time of Artificial Intelligence." Some of the issues the document addresses are Artificial Intelligence, tranhumanism and human dignity in an age of materialism, social media and technology. We got an email message from a friend about the new papal encyclical and with his permission we post it. I was diving deep into Pope Leo’s first encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas. It's all about how the Church views artificial intelligence and the digital age, and I thought you might find it interesting. The original document is a bit long, so I made a quick breakdown of what it covers for you to read quickly if you're interested: Big Tech The Pope first points out that unlike older industrial shifts driven by governments, AI is mostly controlled by massive private tech companies, making regulation for the common good much harder. He notes that AI is already altering decisions that shape …
No! I can not imagine trump speaking anything worth hearing. He hardly ever gives credit to those who deserve it. If or when he does, it goes back to himself. Giving himself credit for things that don't exist or that is true. Only in his sick mind.
If I understand the Canadian situation correctly, Carney was the 'shadow' PM for puppet Trudeau, so any critique of the previous regime becomes a critique of Carney himself, to which he is unlikely to listen, no matter how reasonable. I pray for Canada and all Canadians.
