Paul Haaga, also known as “Lina,” won the girls’ final with a time of 59.45 seconds. His older sister, Sienna, finished second with 60.03 seconds. Results from the 400-meter race.

During Catholic Education Week, the Ottawa Catholic District School Board handed out 36 “Excellence in Catholic Education” awards. Yet critics say the event reflected secular activism more than authentic Catholic identity. Many award recipients were recognized for equity and inclusion initiatives, while Ontario’s Catholic teachers’ union is currently developing 2SLGBTQIA+ inclusion curriculum for all elementary grades, including kindergarten.
For this year's Catholic Education Week, the Ottawa Catholic District School Board came together to celebrate Mass at Notre Dame Cathedral Basilica and hand out 36 awards for Excellence in Catholic Education. All 36 winners are listed on the school board website. We ask: Where is the excellence in Catholic education? The exercise is more to do with PR than true Catholic awards. The Board says, "This year’s theme, Pilgrims of Hope: On the Path to Holiness, focused on who we are as a community and how we move forward together." Archbishop Marcel Damphousse was present along with staff, families and colleagues. The board has even published a booklet about the winners. But where is the hope and the holy place? A more appropriate title would be "Pilgrims of Secularism." The awards claim to be about putting Catholic education in action, building the community and inspiring futures. But what does this actually mean? We're told, "The recipients reflect the very best of our system. They create …

Breaking News Chemotherapy is an ineffective cancer treatment: The only reason that it is still used is because it’s a gigantic money maker Beginning in 2011, American Naturopath Dr. Peter Glidden has been publicly speaking out against using chemotherapy as a treatment for cancer. It is ineffective, harmful and is only still being used because of the huge profits the drug makes for the pharmaceutical industry and doctors, he said.

Matthew McCusker Thu May 8, 2025 Both liberals and traditionalists are often under the false impression that the infallible exercise of the Church’s teaching authority is something which occurs only rarely. Painting of the First Vatican Council, 1870 Editor’s note: Despite the recent death of Francis the debate over his claim to the papacy remains of importance if we are to understand recent events, and prepare for what happens next. For this reason, LifeSiteNews will continue to publish the remaining installments of this series. We ask our readers to pray for the repose of Francis’s soul. All those things are to be believed with divine and Catholic faith which are contained in the Word of God, written or handed down, and are proposed by the Church either by a solemn judgment or by her ordinary and universal magisterium to be believed as divinely revealed. First Vatican Council, Dei Filius In this article, the third part of my reply to Matt Gaspers, I will continue the discussion of …More
This lecture in Buenos Aires on November 4, 1964 was originally titled, “The Freedom of the Church in the Communist State.” Reverend Fathers, military authorities, ladies and gentlemen, It is a great pleasure and privilege to speak to this audience, and I say so not just out of kindness. Indeed, it is truly satisfying for a speaker to communicate with his listeners and realize that everyone stands for the same ideals, has the same mindset, and cares about the same problems. That is a pleasure, particularly when there is a growing perception in Brazil, Argentina, and other Latin American countries that they face the same issues. More than in other historical epochs, one can say that everything unites us, and nothing separates us. Therefore, I am gladly addressing tonight what I see as a basic issue in today’s life. Today we are facing such an accumulation of problems that it is no small thing to say that this one is basic. Imagine that you are in the Kremlin. Top leaders of international …More
Matthew McCusker May 4, 2026 By endorsing Francis's 2018 Catechism revision on capital punishment, Leo XIV has chosen a competing rule of faith over that proposed by the ordinary and universal Catholic Magisterium. Leo XIV has publicly rejected the teaching of the Catholic Church that capital punishment is legitimate under certain conditions. This teaching, having been proposed for our belief by the universal and ordinary magisterium, must be believed by all Catholics. The denial of this doctrine constitutes heresy. The implications of Leo XIV’s public profession of heresy deserve careful consideration. Leo XIV’s position on capital punishment On April 24, in a video address commemorating the 15th anniversary of the abolition of the death penalty in Illinois, Leo XIV said: The Church teaches that “the death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person.” The words within speech marks are from the text on capital punishment inserted into the …More
