In This Corner: Upcoming policies from future Alberta Prime Minster Danielle Smith
Premier Danielle Smith has announced changes to how Alberta educational institutions may accept research money from the federal government. “For too long, the Trudeau government has given research money based on left-wing, so-called ‘progressive’ ideology”, the premier said. “Only research designed to support Justin Trudeau’s view of the world is

Before the federal government and The People’s Republic of Edmonton declared war on paper or plastic bags, stores would provide customers with bags, gratis, to tote away their purchases. Hey, it was the least they could do after we spent $200 on groceries. But now that bags are evil, we

As of March 15th at about 1:45p.m. – the Ides of March, whatever that means – I crossed the last threshold into senior citizenship. I am now a grandfather, and, by extension, I am now married to a grandmother. My youngest son, with a little help from his wife, increased

A one-day return trip from the lower mainland to Victoria had us leaving North Vancouver about 5:30 am. That put us in the Tsawwassen terminal early enough to confirm our reservation for […]

Have I ever told you about the time I met Brian Mulroney? It was 1984, and Mulroney was running to replace the exhausted and deeply unpopular Pierre Trudeau/John Turner government. He stopped by Red Deer, and I decided to go see him. I stood in line just outside Red Deer

Hockey cards are having a moment, aren’t they? Recently, an entire carton of unopened 1979-80 hockey cards, found in a Saskatoon basement (could this story be any more Canadian?) sold for $5 million. There could be 20 Wayne Gretzky rookie cards in the box, potentially worth many millions. Last week,

Criticism of Joe Biden is presently conflated with support of Donald Trump. This criticism is not in support of Trump’s failed pandemic response.

If Barbie wins the best picture Oscar on Monday, it will mark two years in a row that I didn’t finish the best picture winner. I stopped watching last year’s Everything Everywhere All At Once when I became hopelessly lost, intending to finish it later. Later has not arrived. And

One day last week, I got a phone call from my mother-in-law. I know this sounds like the set-up for a joke, but it isn’t. “Where are you?” she practically shouted. A strange question, in that she phoned me at my home. Then she asked me, in an even more

No, the latest measles don’t make you explode, I meant the threat is rising thanks to anti-waxxer ignorance spreading across the globe.
