Warren Kinsella: Comment about comments in the Alternative Facts era

A wall. Ban on Muslim immigration. Tear up TPP, gut NAFTA, bash NATO, end family planning funding. At what point will Ottawa say something? — Warren Kinsella (@kinsellawarren) January 25, 2017

Countries die. Nations fade away. They do, they do. Great nations – however great they may be – are not eternal. Pierre Trudeau certainly thought so, some thirty years ago. Appearing before the Senate to condemn the Meech Lake Accord in the Spring of 1988, Trudeau said: “If the people

I’m sorry, but this is awesome: Kevin O’Leary is the far-and-away front-runner for the Conservative leadership as the Opposition party gains slightly on the Liberals in overall voter preference, according to a new poll. O’Leary, the celebrity businessman who entered the Tory leadership race last week after months of signalling

Was talking today to a banker friend who told me I had to see this. “You have to see what she does when he turns away,” she said. “She knows what he is really like. And she got away from him as soon as the inauguration was over.” And she

If it works, sure. A snippet from this week’s Hill Times: Liberal strategist Warren Kinsella said Mr. Harper has always been a “polarizing candidate,” and, as a result, has the dual affect of mobilizing and motivating both Conservatives and Liberals. “The Conservatives are using him in fundraising because he’s popular

Trump’s limo passes empty stands on the day of his inauguration: A few folks (including my wife and daughter) get together with like-minded friends the next day: Oh, and at the march I participated in, in Toronto? More than 60,000 people. Enjoy the view from the window while you can,

I’d say don’t pick fights with guys who buy ink by the barrel, but I want the Unpresident in jail. So carry on, you stupid shitheads. Key figures in Donald Trump’s administration have become embroiled in a fresh war of words with the media. On Saturday the president had condemned media

Take a look at these photographs from around the world. They are extraordinary. Why? Because those are real people. I saw 50,000 of them in Toronto today, when I marched with them. My wife and daughter saw 500,000 of them, too, at the main march in Washington. Over and over,
