Recently, the National Post published a discussion that I engaged in with Jonathan Kay. I participated in that because it was an opportunity to provide a counterpoint for readers who don’t often see one.

In one of my last posts I revealed that Andrew Scheer has been quietly parachuting anti-choice candidates into ridings all over Canada.And said that the Cons should now be known as the Religious Party of Canada. The party that says one thing in English Canada and something completely different in Quebec.And now

American religious conservatives have a problem.
