Trump = idiot.
Trump is such an idiot. 1. He’s united Canadians like nothing else has in decades. 2. He’s single-handedly revitalized the Liberal Party, which he hated. 3. He’s fast-tracked trade between…
Warren
We have us a race, folks!
I like this. Why? 1. I like horse races – they’re more fun. 2. It forces Poilievre to be definitive on opposing Trump. He was slippery before. Not now.
My latest: Carney’s silence
With an uneasy ceasefire in place, and some hostages finally being released, it’s likely that Prime Minister Mark Carney’s brain trust figured they could keep doing what they had been…
New one. May sell.
Part of proceeds go to Ukrainian Red Cross.
Liberal leadership: my take
Me on Unpublished Cafe on the Liberal leadership and the Mango Mussolini.
My latest: over the boards – and fight back
“Flooding the zone” is a football term, but it’s been appropriated by political people. In football, flooding the zone happens when a team sends a lot of receivers to one…
The unChurchill
When a country is under attack, when the people want a leader to rally behind, the guy who sneers that the country is “broken” is not who you want leading…
Kennedy the killer
And Kennedy is approved. I used to think that, when thousands of tiny crosses start appearing all over the US – children killed by measles and preventable diseases – Americans…
Slava Ukraini
I paint when I’m anxious about the world. I paint a lot, lately. For obvious reasons, I want to fundraise again for Ukrainian Red Cross. Portion of proceeds goes to…
PSA
This is your periodic reminder that I proudly volunteered for Kamala Harris and none of this – none of it – would be happening if we’d won. Elections have consequences.
Warren loves democracy
I love seeing photos of candidates, of every political stripe, smiling as they canvass and go door-to-door. It’s the purest form of democracy, and I’m a sucker for that. Thanks…
My latest: wake up, Team Tory
If the polls are accurate, this has never really happened before. The Conservative Party of Canada has dropped nearly 30 percentage points in six weeks. Now, in 1984, there was…
Silence
While a despot attacks Canada, total silence from Americans we had considered friends and allies. The silence is deafening, but it won’t ever be forgotten.
Marx on the Liberal leadership and stuff
Marx: “The mass of the people have a sound aesthetical common sense. They have an instinctive hatred against everything ambiguous.” This is why Trump won. This is why Carney may…
My latest: why Poilievre is in trouble
Now we know why the Tories wanted an election right away. At the start of 2025, when Justin Trudeau was still in charge, pollster Angus Reid reported that the Pierre…
MAGA mea culpa
The vast majority of the conservatives I know are telling me that they were wrong about Trump and now feel he is a destructive, malignant force and a real threat…
