I liked this article for the sense of accuracy in what is reported as persecution. And it admits that persecution against Christians in Canada is almost unheard of, though there are some trends to be aware of.
Mainly, I was impressed with this vision of the persecuted church:
"Living on the edge—never knowing when the knock on the door means you will be taken away; whispering hymns for fear of being heard; being arrested, imprisoned or tortured—one might expect the persecuted to be resentful or in despair. But reports and pictures that come back from China, Sudan, Indonesia, the Middle East and other parts of the world show Christians who exude joy. They seem to go about their tasks with peace in their hearts. They appear to be strong in their faith. And they pray for those who persecute them."
