In between, readers familiar with Kay's weekly columns over the last ten years will find elaborated commentaries on her niche subjects: the negative impact of feminism on our public institutions and families, the erosion of academic integrity in the universities and our politically correct "rights" culture's sub-version of social and civic reciprocity in Canadian communities.

“No Turning Back” is the first tale in this book which contains a variety of human interest stories, some humorous, some to stir your imagination - even a children’s story written to be read to small people. Some tales are personal, drawn from my own experiences. Human beings and how they cope with adversity has always inspired me to write. I will leave my readers to decide which are true, and which are fi ctitious. Enjoy what you will.
