Warren Kinsella: We can’t afford four more years of Ford
This has been pinging around the Internet this morning – I first saw it on the Twitter feed of someone I follow who is out in Vancouver. Anyway – dunno who did it, or why, but it’s a pretty slick piece of work. We live in interesting times, eh?
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Murder, SFH wrote
A few weeks back, Canada’s best-loved geriatric punk punsters, SFH, put together a song about Rob Ford ranting in a video about how he planned to kill someone. Then, Ugly Pop Records sign SFH to put the song out as the B-side to a 7″ release of their smash worldwide
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Byline: Warren’s excommunication from LPC will happen in five, four, three, two…
And wait’ll they see my column in the Sun papers on Sunday! Hoo boy! I’m about five minutes in. Yes, I think it’s dumb. No one agrees with me, as usual.

To the defendants, meanwhile, we say: good riddance to bad garbage. May your misery be long and deep.

Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Trudeau Senate gambit: lotsa fun when you’re in Opposition, not so much when you’re governing (updated)
As Ms. Kirbie just reminded me, Trudeau’s plan is terrific and bold and whatnot when he’s in Opposition, and the Liberals represent a minority in the Senate. But when he’s Prime Minister – as I believe he will be, one day – he’d better get ready for the sort of
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Rob Ford: I had nothing to do with a murder
What’s amazing isn’t that Mayor Crackhead – he who gives little kids the finger, pisses in public parks, and drinks and drives near schoolyards – denies he killed a young man. What’s amazing is that the question even has to be asked, as it was here. You (and the police,
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Wynne, Northumberland governments place hundreds of kids at risk
More here. The local government is out to get them – and the provincial government doesn’t give a sweet damn. Meanwhile, the entire process has been rigged to give a pre-ordained result. The whole thing stinks. And literally thousands of kids and families are going to be hurt. Big time.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: When you call someone a terrorist
As I mentioned a few days ago, PMO needed to lawyer up. They now see why. Harper and PMO will lose: falsely calling someone a terrorist is among the most serious libels you can make. They’ll insist on settling with a non-disclose, but if I were advising NCCM – and
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: A year ago this week
The anniversary passed and I didn’t even notice. I suspect I’m not alone, in that regard. Telling. A year ago, a friend of many years – a friend I’d cut off family vacations to help out, a friend I’d violated confidences to protect, a friend I considered a brother –
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Here’s a magazine cover I thought I’d never see
But I understand why Rolling Stone did it. This guy – as I said to my former Boss last week, a notable progressive leader himself – is the most famous progressive leader in the world. If he is not stopped from carrying out long, long overdue reforms, I now believe

Wow. From MS. Wow. Someone you read regularly has these words tattooed on his chest.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Why is the Ontario government placing 800 kids at risk?
Just saw this. Happening in Northumberland – Cobourg, Brighton, all around there – right now, this week. This is outrageous. Eight hundred kids! Where is the Opposition, where is the other media? This kind of move is insanity – and in an election year, no less. I plan to dig
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Left-Right political dichotomies
Well-written, but based entirely on a false premise. The only people who believe that Left-Right political analysis matters anymore are journalists and politicos. To your average person – to Joe and Jane Frontporch – life just isn’t that cut and dried. A person can favour slashing government spending, but not
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: In today’s Hill Times (and tomorrow’s Sun): Mark Adler, the face of Parliamentary irrelevance
Makes you wish we had Ken Dryden again, doesn’t it? Mark Adler, that is. The Conservative York Centre MP was notable only for one thing, before this week. He was the guy who beat Dryden, the respected lawyer, the bestselling author and the former NHL star. That was his
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: I tried to think of something warm. This is what I came up with.
I don’t know about you, but the next person who says to me (a) “Is it cold enough for ya?” and/or (b) “This is a real Canadian winter!” is going to have a three-foot-long icicle driven through their tiny black heart. By me. Sick to death with Winter 2014 as
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: A Raymi the Minx original
Unbeknownst to many, I suspect, she is a very good painter. I purchased the painting below from her some years ago. I have yet to receive it. This is become a bone of contention between Canada’s most read-blogger and me. Periodically, I demand that my painting be liberated from its
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: In Sunday’s Sun: when you call someone one of the worst things you can call them
Of all the serious accusations that can be made, calling someone an anti-Semite is among the most serious. What is it? The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington – where I have taken ashen-faced school kids on tours, to see the horror that real anti-Semitism causes – is a
