Cathie from Canada: Farewell to twitter, I guess

Apparently Musk is going to try to start charging for his platform.   He simply doesn’t understand Twitter at all – he never did. Its like a pulp and paper company thinking it can collect a nickel from everyone who reads advertising handout flyers.  If he tries to charge us all

Politics and its Discontents: Are We Supposed To Be Grateful?

Make no mistake about it: I am absolutely delighted that the Ford cabal has, albeit quite belatedly, seen the light and is restoring the pilfered Greenbelt lands. But, like puppies receiving scraps from the table of a master who regularly abuses us, are we supposed to submissively wag our tails,

Northern Reflections: Clouds In The Future

Politics isn’t just about elections. It’s also about what happens between elections. Doug Ford made that abundantly clear yesterday when he reversed his decision to build houses on Ontario’s Greenbelt.

What every pediatrician in the world needs to read – from tern:  Correct me if I’m wrong, but this is a really bad thing, isn’t it? I wonder what the percentage is after the 2nd, 5th, 8th, and 12th infection? Here’s a really really interesting point in the study: Only

It seems that too often we are looking at voting methods instead of examining the entire electoral process. There is much more involved in Canadian politics that the voter should be concerned about. We could go a long way to improving our democracy. Start with our candidates for political office.
