In what is likely the first of its kind in Canada, a Toronto mosque is offering a "detox" program for young Islamic radicals who are sympathetic to the terrorist group al Qaeda.

I've been unemployed twice in the past ten years. And they were among the worst periods of my life.  It's not just economic.  Aside from the lost income, which creates it's own basket of problems, most who have been unemployed can attest to the range of personal and professional challenges it creates.

While some adults may think youth are only interested in the latest fashions or downloads for their iPods, many young people across the United Church of Canada are reaching out to serve others and learn more about life.

Each March break, a few youth from Port Elgin United Church do some hands-on learning. In the past three years, this Ontario group has helped build homes for El Salvador’s homeless, cleaned up around a St. Thomas, Ontario, home for young mothers, and learned the realities of people struggling with addictions in Hamilton’s inner city.
