Also, it’s Bjorn’s birthday. I may therefore acknowledge his presence onstage, but that’s a big if. .

This mass-killing in Calgary took place a block from my law school and where I used to live.  This is insane. .

…and so will the other defendants named in this big defamation action. Barring a speedy discretion-before-dishonour top-secret settlement, this thing will drag on for quite some time.  But whenever it concludes, it will do so with the Liberal leader and his inner circle losing, big time. I haven’t read the

Now that the plague that is Rob Anders has ended – fittingly, and Biblically, just as Holy Week and Passover commenced – let us give thanks and praise to God. And analyze what it means. Anders, as a long-mortified Canada will know, has represented Northwest Calgary and environs for nearly

And just think! There’s only about 200 more bad days to go! I was thinking that, on days like today, John probably wishes he’d stayed on as a highly-paid Rogers mouthpiece. And then I remember: he did! .

Dithers’ “number one priority” just got blowed up, real good. .

Not bad. .

But I love Dithers’ addled mouthpiece’s quote at the bottom (link is under the 24 front pic): “It is a fabrication that our campaign doesn’t have strong policies. We will come out with a number of them over the campaign.” Get that? We have policies, but we don’t have policies.

1. Calgarians have again shown the world – viz., Calgary Centre, Wildrose wipeout, etc. etc. – that they aren’t just moving to the centre. They are in the centre. 2. Jason Kenney will never be the leader of the Conservative Party. You’re welcome. .

Imagine you’re a dad with four young kids, and a wife who is a school principal. Imagine you’re an engineering graduate of a Canadian university, and you do a lot of charity work. Imagine you get the political bug, and get involved in a campaign, and you win and you

There’s another YouTube Rob Ford thing out this morning and I hate it: it evinces too much sympathy, or likeability, for Mayor Crackhead.  It misses the mark. This video, meanwhile, naturally doesn’t.  You can see this band, considered Canada’s finest and most-wonderful geriatric punk combo, at the Tranzac Club next

The good news: The Liberals surpassed the Conservatives a year and a half ago. This is not a honeymoon period, not a blip of the sort Michael Ignatieff enjoyed after his convention win and during the prorogation brouhaha. The NDP and Conservatives both have been on the skids for some

April 16, 8 pm, Tranzac Club, 292 Brunswick, in TO. For CUP and student media. We will have a different line-up than ever before seen: history will be made. .

So I go over to George Brown College at noon to give a speech thing to their board. It went well. Felt good. Went for lunch at the Patrician. Talked to Terry and Chris. Later, driving on Lakeshore with my little guy – and the front left wheel cover comes

I once said to a Conservative who was a friend of his that I thought he’d been a not-bad finance minister. She didn’t believe me. So I wrote this. Apparently it amused him when he saw it; I was amused to hear that he was amused. Anyway. Condolences to his

It’s National Volunteer Week, so Olivia did a photo with some of our (many) volunteers.  It was the volunteers themselves who came up with this “OC” hands thing.  I think it’s quite cool. So, here’s an idea: if you support her, get a selfie of you making the symbol, too,
