--------------------Our firm was founded in 1908 by 13 lawyers who believed that the practice of law did not have to be merely one aspect of an attorney’s life but that it offered enough rewards – mentally, spiritually and financially – that it was all a person needed to live a complete existence. Our commitment to this ideal has driven us throughout our 98-year history, and continues to guide us

--------------------I am sure that all the Canadians who have managed to get out of Lebanon must be heaving sighs of relief that they are on their way back home to safety. But the media have been full of reports showing angry and tired people who feel that our government has not done enough to get them out of Lebanon.Unfortunately, their comments irritate and anger many of us, so I would like to

--------------------I'm afraid I can't really offer an opinion either way. Being born in 1982, I'm simply one of the many who have been dropped in the middle of this long and bloody political story. Moreover, being an outsider to the narrative, it seems one couldn't escape charges of anti-Semitism or anti-Muslimism (is that a word?) should one offer an opinion one way or the other.So I sit idly

But because it's involved thousands of normal, well-adjusted people, it's far more useful for assessing social trends.What's been on display has been an aggressive brand of tribalism. It would have been a deeply uncomfortable

--------------------The next time a Christian partisan shouts a Bible verse at you — as if citing Leviticus 18:22, Exodus 20:13 or 1 Corinthians 7:4 ended all discussion of homosexuality, abortion or women's rights — shout back, "Acts 4:32-35!"That's the passage that might have inspired Karl Marx: "No one claimed private ownership of any possessions, but everything they owned was held in common,"

After more than 40 years of hurt, some may say England fans have certainly done that.

Moments earlier, Italy's Fabio Grosso was dribbling a few strides from the goalmouth when Lucas Neill slid in front of him. The Italian cut in Neill's direction and tried to leap

--------------------It has become fashionable to apologize, and this is particularly true with respect to historical wrongs which, since they involve actions of others, long dead, and hence are free of any personal culpability, are apologies that are inherently easy to make. We have seen Tony Blair, the British Prime Minister, apologize for British indifference to the potato famine of the 1840s.

--------------------The rather worn cliché that sport is war without guns, that our support and loyalty to our teams and nations is our modern-day expression of our tribal roots, happens to be true. If fundamentalists would just play sports instead of assassinating tennis players for wearing shorts, no doubt they'd spend less time flying planes into buildings.Last week, the biggest sporting event
