And I’m very happy that Laura Jane Grace is happy, too. Sometimes things work out, you know?

Warren Kinsella: In Friday’s Sun: the best of times, the worst of times
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. And this year, the worst moments inadvertently resulted in some of the best moments, too. As 2015 beckons, and 2014 recedes, Sun News Network asked some of us to assemble some thoughts about the year’s best and worst

Sun News has asked me and Lala what we think are the best, worst, etc. political moments in 2014. The quickie list below ris my first stab at it. What’s yours? Comments are open! BEST MOVE – Parties coming together post-shooting WORST MOVE – Politicizing sexual harassment on Hill

So sayeth the great Bette Davis. A music biz friend tells me he’s happy because only one of kids isn’t talking to him this Christmas; a law school friend tells me one of his kids refers to him as a well-known former German dictator. As such, I’m starting to get

As she contemplates The End, Danielle Smith should give Peter MacKay a call. He might tell her what happens to your political career when you let the other guy dictate the terms of surrender.

…is the one you’ll see between Stephen Harper and Thomas Mulcair, agreeing that there should be as many leadership debates as possible. And you know why. Story by iPolitics on that, and other stuff, here.

…and, on this day of pure evil, here is a partial list of those who said we should negotiate with the Taliban, and the one entity who said we shouldn’t. Feel free to add to the lists in comments. Negotiate with the Taliban: The New Democratic Party Barack Obama Thomas

For we Westerners, few things are as frustrating as awaiting the results on election night. In years past, it’s been infuriating, watching the TV meat puppets declare a winner before polls have even closed past the Lakehead. In 2015, unfortunately, that’s unlikely to change. Individual polls lie, these days. But

Looking for an experienced and bonded cleaning person – for a small firm and some residential stuff, too. Between Midtown and East End. Got any recommendations?

Why? Because iPhones don’t have physical keyboards, and they suck if you have to type more than a few words, that’s why. I had the very first Blackberry, in 2000. Along with Bruce Hartley, I was one of the first to have a Blackberry on that Chrétien campaign, in fact.

Who are the anonymous “insiders” who told a reporter that people are being barred from being Liberal candidates because of who their friends are? No, we are not making this up. From the Winnipeg Free Press, this afternoon: “Insiders also say Dinsdale was not high on the list of preferred candidates

…and in a riding he came within 400 votes of winning, by the way. Some bits from Rolf’s essay: Dear Friends, I have decided I will not be pursuing the nomination for the Liberal Party in Brandon-Souris for the upcoming election. It was a tough decision. But in the end

St. Fido surveys his congregation. It isn’t a hoax – the linkage is here – but it raises an interesting question, one my kids and I often debate: if animals have souls, should we be eating them? I open this one up for comment by all and sundry. And if

Sorry. But I’m a Liberal. I am, I am. I’ve occasionally been mad at the party, over the years, and I haven’t been wild about some of the people running it, either. But when all is said and done, I’m a Liberal. I was rummaging through a drawer recently, and

Eat your heart out, David Macmillan!
