You’re the incumbent, you’re smart, you’ve got plenty of experience, but you can’t get ahead in the polls. So what do you do? You call for a series of leaders’ debates, that’s what you do.  Stephen Harper, however much he disdains the mainstream media, knows one media truism to be

The passing of Spock – and an imminent move – reminded me of the treasure trove of Star Trek Stuff I own. Among the Trek gems: two original (and authentic) series scripts used by Walter Koenig in Operation Earth and The Cloud Minders. They’re signed by him and other members of the

A few weeks ago, when some nice folks were encouraging me to run for the Liberal nomination in Toronto Danforth, I finally met with one of Justin Trudeau’s most senior advisers.  There ensued some jousting, and then we got around to discussing why I was not suitable. Chief among the

Hmm. Kind of odd behaviour for a public servant whose $300K+ salary I help to pay, no? Perhaps it’s because I hired someone who successfully brought a human rights action against him. Perhaps it’s because not a few of us have regarded him as a raging megalomaniac going back to

I am so, so sad. Spock gone. I can’t believe it.

Personally, I think the llamas leave the dress behind in the dirt.

Cause. Cause. Cause. Effect. I’ve written a couple books that deal with this subject, here and here, so forgive me for asking (what should be by now) a wholly rhetorical question: why do young people turn to extremism? Because they feel rejected by the mainstream. Because they feel they do

Operation Alienation™ hits the jackpot again – this time a family member, no less!  What superior people management skills! What morale-building! What a proud legacy! What a spectacular mess they’ve made.

Inquiring dinosaurs want to know!

Lala has been jousting online with various kooky members of the God Squad about the new Ontario sex ed curriculum.  I got involved. 

TORONTO—The reasons why the Sun News Network failed are, by now, more or less well known.  What’s less known is why it was allowed to fail.  Full disclosure, as I join The Hill Times on a weekly basis: I was the House Bolshevik at the network. Alone among the conservatives, at the

You’ve read about this, I’m sure. So, why didn’t the supposedly-expert authorities do this? Question: why didn't cops keep tunnel intact and under surveillance, instead of filling it in and asking public for help? @metromorning — Warren Kinsella (@kinsellawarren) February 24, 2015

42 for the Cons, 34 for the Grits. Hmm. Looks like the CPC Quebec surge isn’t a myth, after all. Has happened.  Wow. All weird, IMHO, when you look at “direction of the country” finding. More here. What’s your take, Dear Reader?

If Sun News Network was still among the living, I’d have several chase producers asking me on today, to talk about the Ontario government’s new sexual education curriculum. Lala and I had a vigorous debate about all of this yesterday morning, over espresso.  For your reading (dis)pleasure, I summarize my
