Denley: Sex ed debate seems more about politics than about the kids
Ontario politicians embroiled in the heated and unproductive debate over the province’s sex-ed curriculum need to step back and ask themselves a simple question: Is this really about the kids, or is it all politics?

'I wasn’t ready to give up': Ottawa dairy farmer rebuilds after last year's devastating fire
Peter Ruiter figures he had two options after a fire last fall destroyed his livelihood: He could rebuild and return to dairy farming, the job he’s worked at and loved for the past 35 years, or he could walk away from his Blackrapids Farm and try something new — politics, perhaps, or feed sales. He was fast approaching 50, and the smart money, not to mention most of the people offering him free, unsolicited counsel, told him to get out of farming.
He recognizes that advice was likely -
