Warren Kinsella: A Sorbara story
Greg Sorbara was on Steve Paikin’s The Agenda last night on TVO. I was at Strombo’s place watching Against Me! play in Strombo’s living room, so I missed Steve’s show. But I certainly heard about it afterwards. On Paikin’s much-watched program, Greg Sorbara did to Kathleen Wynne in 2017 what

Wish Lisa and Emma could’ve been there, too – but they’re both in Ottawa. Yes, this was our official wedding dance song. Sing along! I don’t ever want to talk that way again, I don’t want to know people like that anymore. As if there was an obligation, As if

And Donald Trump’s words sure are coming back to haunt him, aren’t they? It’s beautiful. I wish him deep and everlasting misery and pain.

It’s Ralph Goodale. You know, the Saskatchewan Liberal who has been in the House of Commons since 1993, which coincidentally is the same year that Kevin O’Leary moved to Boston, where he has been ever since. Anyway, O’Leary says he’s going to fire Goodale, even though he doesn’t know who

It’s apparently International Poetry Day, or something like that. Having always loved poetry – and having always lacked the ability to write it well, myself – I decided I would share my favourite poem by my favourite poet with you. He was a drunk, a philanderer, a dropout, a victim
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: This week’s column: campaigns don’t matter – words do
Campaigns matter. That’s a long-time conceit of political consultants, of course. We say it all the time. I even worked at a successful political consulting firm which trademarked the phrase. Campaigns Matter™. Campaigns matter – along with its corollary, “the only poll that matters is the one on Election Day”

It’s not because the NNA nominees are out that I am reminded that we have some of the best media in the world. Not at all. I think, like Jerry Seinfeld, that award shows are horseshit. No, I believe that – for such a small country – we have some

Here we go. It will be hard for the trained seals in the GOP caucus to ignore this. And, wow. Never thought Comey would go this far. WOW: FBI CONFIRMS IT IS INVESTIGATING TRUMP-RUSSIA LINKS #USPOLI #POTUS pic.twitter.com/qVHdOd3x4E — Warren Kinsella (@kinsellawarren) March 20, 2017

…wherein Chuck, RIP, slices and dices my fave bands of all time (save and except Da Brudders), here: The Sex Pistols — “God Save the Queen” What’s this guy so angry about anyway? Guitar work and progression is like mine. Good backbeat. Can’t understand most of the vocals. If you’re going

If anyone else in agreement with her? Is so, comment below!

…in today’s Hill Times: Politics is at its worst in political parties. Internal decisions are usually made in secret with little recourse to the rules of due process that apply to normal business decisions. …Decisions were made which served to tilt the nomination process in the races to replace outgoing

SFH notwithstanding, I’m looking for GTA geriatric strings and skins punks for musical cooperation, and possible world domination. Fire off an email if intrigued.

By Dowd, naturally: …we’ve never watched a president so hungrily devour his own presidency. Soon, there won’t be anything left except the sound of people snickering. Consumed by his paranoia about the deep state, Donald Trump has disappeared into the fog of his own conspiracy theories. As he rages in the

Elvira Kurt – the Elvira Kurt – tweeted this pic of Yours Screwly onstage at Comedy Trumps Hate! I’ve arrived! The show was oversold, and raised at least $12,000 for Planned Parenthood in the US! Take that, Agent Orange! Hey @kinsellawarren you're tr#mpin' it. "And he's a dick." Way to

Here. Wow. Goldy: The “Jewspapers,” the “Jew World Order.” McInnes: “Jews are ruining the world with their lies and their money and their hooked-nose, bagel-eating faces.” Goldy: “…we need to launch the next Crusade and reclaim Bethlehem.” McInnes: “I’ve actually become more anti-Semitic since I’ve come [to Israel].” Goldy: “Feminism
