  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

CV NEWS FEED // A historic Catholic church in Saskatchewan, Canada, burned down the night of Feb. 21 in what locals and police suspect to be an arson attack.

The Peter and Paul Roman Catholic Church, also known by locals as “The Polish Church,” has stood since 1910, according to local outlet 980 CJME. Although it has been abandoned for decades, the Garden River church north of the city of Prince Albert has remained a landmark for the surrounding community for years.

The fire department was made aware of the blaze around 11 p.m. Friday night. However, Rebel News reported that nothing is left of the church except for “charred remains.”

According to SaskNOW, Royal Canadian Mounted Police confirmed that they are currently investigating the fire as suspicious.

Local official Reeve Ryan Scragg also suspects arson, 980 CJME reported.
