Black and White Faternal Twins!

Twins Triniti and Ghabriael Cunningham are your average fraternal twins. They were sadly born 11 weeks early but pulled through and are growing healthy babies. They like to play together and are quite happy. Although they are brother and sister and twins a rare occurrence that had occurred. Triniti and Ghabriael were different skin color. Triniti is black and Ghabriael is white. The odds of this happening are rare to never and in fact it is so rare there is no statistic to display the odds. It is said this had occurred because one child got more genes that controlled for more darkly pigmented skin color. While the other twin had received more genes that had coded for less pigmentation.


This is such a rare occurrence and i believe it is a fantastic miracle. I believe that these twins are both very lucky that they are healthy and happy and that they shouldn't care about what color they are. Also, I think that it is very amazing that they are twins but they are different skin color. In conclusion i am very happy for this family to have awesome twins.

Obama proposes fee for Canadian visitors to the U.S.

In this article it states that barrack Obama wants to charge Canadians a fee for entering the states by air or sea. The proposal is shown in the 2012 federal draft budget that he had submitted to Congress. It is a huge value of $5.50 but it will not apply to visitors entering the United States in private vehicles. Also, the visitors coming from Canada, Mexico and a many of the Caribbean countries are at this moment in time exempt from “passenger inspection fees." Also, according to Statistics Canada around 16 million Canadians flew into the United States in 2009. This proposal was made as Canada and the U.S. move toward increased cross-border cooperation.


I believe this a ridiculous thing for President Obama to do. We are an alliance and he shouldn’t charge his fellow country to enter his country. Although the U.S is in a huge financial deficit he shouldn’t charge Canadians to enter his country. When Canadians enter the U.S. Canadians usually spend money so there is no reason for us to spend an Extra $5.50 for the U.S to make money.

Dalai Lama's Nephew Killed

It was Monday February 14th when the Dalai Lama’s nephew was killed on a highway. He was raising awareness for the struggle with the Taliban for the independence in china. Jigme K. Norbu was only 45. He was hit while marking the 50th anniversary of the failed Tibetan rebellion against Chinese rule. Jigme Norbu was walking down the white line of the unlit highway and was struck by an SUV. The SUV was driven by a man named Keith R. O’Dell of Palm Coast. Unfortunately he was driving with his 2 young children when he hit Norbu. Norbu’s late father was a high lama who was also an abbot of a monastery when the Chinese invaded. The brother fled into exile during the time 0f 1959.


I believe it is very sad that a man of this importance and of this stature was killed. He was killed very unfortunately and it is sad that he died this way. But although he did die he died doing the thing he loved the most. He died helping a cause he believed in. I also feel very bad for the man who hit Norbu because it was not his fault but he still did kill a person. Also, I think the highway should put lights up because 2 people have already died by getting hit by cars. So in conclusion I believe this highway should have lights to prevent people from injury and death.

TTC worker charged in bus passenger assault

Toronto TTC bus driver is going to court for the assault of a bus passenger. The driver was arrested on Tuesday following the assault on January the 8th. The person who was shoved was a man names Isaac Gould. He was with his 10 year old son when the bus driver had assaulted Mr. Gould. It all started when a TTC bus driver boarded at the bus terminal and seemed irritated. The bus was completely full and the driver proceeded to the next stop. When the driver saw 5 more passengers he began to get angry. The bus driver got angry and screamed at all of the passengers to move back. There was no room for anyone to move and that is when the bus driver got up and pushed Mr. Gould into a poll on the bus. He then went to the back of the bus shoving all the people in the bus. Later on Gould called the 42 division of the police and the bus dispatcher ordered the driver to pull over. Gould said he is worried for the emotional impact on his son. This is the only way for him to pick up his son and his son doesn’t ant to take the TTC anymore. There will be a scheduled court appearance on March 7th.


I believe that the bus driver did a wrong thing by taking the situation to the next level. The driver should have just said to the people move back and just stay calm. The bus driver should be fired because that is not tolerated in today’s society. The TTC Company should also give the Gould family a VIP pass for the bus so that they can ride the bus for free. In conclusion I believe the gould family deserves an apology for the wrong done by the TTC driver.

Canadians facing charges in Dominican

Four Canadians and an Algerian man face charges following a brawl outside the nightclub in the Dominican Republic. A 19 year old Barrie resident, Jordan Morrison, vacationing in the Dominican is beaten to death. He embarked in this brawl by defending a woman who was being harassed by one of the Canadian men. Two other Canadians saw what happened and will be giving formal statements to what happened in court. Jordan Morrison lived with Asperger’s syndrome which is a type of autism. He was known as an avid skateboarder by his friends and neighbors. He was a good man and later on in life he wanted to join the military. He had also just recently graduated from Barrie North Collegiate Institute. Jordan Morrison was a good person.


I believe this is unfortunate event for Canadians and all who have known Jordan Morrison. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time. He did a heroic act by defending the young lady who was being harassed. Jordan was going to be in the military and he would have been an amazing asset to Canada’s military. It was also said that only 2 of the Canadian men will stay in jail until the case is over. But the other Canadian and Algerian will most likely post bail. I strongly believe that jail time should be handed out to all who were in the fight. It is a true misfortune to see such a great person die in such an awful way.

Cairo's Tenth Day of Protests

Today is February the 3rd and there is chaos in Cairo. It has been a long 10 days because there is a huge protests going on between the supporters of President Hosni Mubarak and with the protesters against the president. In the early day of the protests it was peaceful in away and it finally takes a turn for the worst. There have been outbreaks of violence between the supports and protesters. It has been said that 5 protesters have been shot and killed to death. It is believed to be done of the work by Egyptian police in civilian clothing. In the streets of Cairo the current number of injuries is 800 and the vast majorities are head wounds and some are quite fatal. So far the President’s supporters are pushing back the protesters and at one point there were men on horses and even a camel to push back the protestors. It is sheer determination by the protestors because every minute they protest they take heavy gunfire and fire bombs of the President’s followers.



If I were an Egyptian Citizen I would join the protestors. They are fighting for a greater cause. The Citizens of Cairo are fighting for their freedom! The President of Egypt’s time is over; it is time for a turn for the best. I believe that if he were a true president he would step down and honor what his people want. The President is causing death and chaos in his own people and country. I also believe that there should be even more military presence and also more arrests to the people throwing fire bombs. All in all I believe that the president of Egypt should step down his time is over.

Protests in Cairo

The outbreak of protests started in Cairo only days ago. The protests are due to all of the citizens of Cairo wanting to over throw their president. There have been peaceful and also physical protests in Cairo. Close to 1 million Egyptians are anticipating the major demonstration that is taking place on Friday. There have been small clusters of people causing destruction and that is when there was a call for “a major security crackdown”. The market in Egypt was also going through a rough patch and they closed the market and re-opened it an hour later. On a good note the opposition leader has stated that he is returning from Europe and will participate in the peaceful protests and make sure it is kept peaceful. Finally, it was stated the lead fuel of these protests are to blogs, twitter, and Facebook.

As a Canadian citizen I do not know too well what major protests are all about. But, in Canada we know that Cairo is a magnificent place to travel to. Personally I believe that the president should just drop out and let his country be peaceful and happy. The citizens of Egypt and Cairo are no happy with the president and they all want him out of parliament. Due to the president not dropping out the market was on a steep fall and people are getting hurt in protests. If the president did really care about the people he would have dropped out. I also believe that the opposition leader is doing a great job by saying he will join the protest and make sure it is peaceful.
