Of further note is the continuing campaign of harassment against Catholic Insight by the branch of Heritage Canada responsible for funding Magazine Publications which has quietly placed Catholic Insight on a "Watch List" for "questionable content". Heritage Canada is the government ministry which also oversees the Canadian Human Rights Commission.Could there be a better example of double standards towards Conservative Christians? A Catholic publication gets black-listed for advocating traditional Christian beliefs. But Heritage Canada, just as any other department that deals with the mass media, is by no means eager to blacklist a newspaper which publishes classified ads like "Man seeking boys.... age not so relevant". Let alone blacklisting "Xtra" or any other paper trash that promotes perverse lifestyles to anyone including school children.
Sources close to Father De Valk have confirmed that this report - dated 21/03/2007 "Report to Director, Periodical publishing Policy and Programs - Questionable Content Complaint: Catholic Insight" prepared by Sara Mayes, has resulted in Catholic Insight being required to submit a copy of each issue for screening.
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and you have done everything to stand. (Ephesians 6:13)
