Now we know why he pays female Russian hookers big bucks for golden showers.

Glad he thinks so; uncomfortable he's saying so. 'Bank governor credits #LPC with stronger economy' #cdnpoli https://t.co/t95i0B34WW — Warren Kinsella (@kinsellawarren) July 13, 2017

Here: Warren Kinsella, a Toronto-based political consultant and commentator who is a staunch opponent of Fromm’s, disagrees. “Public services are not supposed to be used to promote discrimination. The library in Etobicoke is doing that,” he said. Warren Kinsella says “public services are not supposed to be used to promote

I spoke to the chief librarian of the whole system & she won't relent. Cites 'charter' & freedom of speech I said 'who cares' let them sue — John F Campbell (@Campbell4Ward4) July 12, 2017 1. They won't sue. 2. Hate propaganda isn't "speech." 3. Library is breaking law –

As has been the case since I was eight years old and living in Texas, I will be cheering for the apes. Also, I am cancelling a fun weekend trip to be at the first showing on the first day. Yes, I have problems.

Here. Key quotage: None of the Conservatives who leapt on Trudeau’s gaffe — Jason Kenney, Brian Jean, Michelle Rempel, et al. — were nearly as outraged as they claimed to be. They were, as politicians do, taking political advantage of a rival politicians’ slip. It was a mistake, to be

Over there on the right.  I look rather edgy.

So, the Alberta mistake.  Also, the braying and screeching. Even the Washington Post has (amusingly) taken note.  The Washington Post! The hullaballoo – the ceaseless braying and screeching – has prompted me to declare: I’m an Albertan.  Alberta’s home.  My family has lived there for decades. Hell, I’m heading back there to teach at the

At present, I am at the cabin, blasting them at the trees as I peck away.  Little-known facts. 

This never-ending Khadr saga, I think, is a proxy for Canadians’ views on many other things – and it has divided us, dramatically. In our house, just for example, Lisa supports the payment and the apology. I, meanwhile, think it is appalling to provide either a payment or an apology
