Code
My son taught himself code when he was 13. He’s really good at it, now. But he has more to learn, he says, and he there’s no high school in…
My apologies to Kingston
…I’m not there today to speak at Queen’s. The weather hasn’t been particularly cooperative, this week. But the main reason is Son One. That hit that he got at the…
The house that the Canucks built
Oh my God this is so amazing.
The buck stops here, the wheels on the bus go round and round, etc.
This makes me very, very happy, and alleviates a nagging concern I (and perhaps others) had had: “Premier Kathleen Wynne says she won’t sacrifice her predecessor Dalton McGuinty to deflect…
The Supremes strike the right note on speech

In Tuesday’s Sun: I’d like to see Trudeau beat Kenney into the canvas, personally
Can anyone figure out why Jason Kenney is so obsessed with Justin Trudeau? It can’t be that Kenney isn’t busy. After all, he’s supposedly a super-duper powerful cabinet minister, and…

Jon, if you read this, email or text me. Same deets.

In Sunday’s Sun: could Trudeau lose?
As the Liberal party’s leadership race inches towards its mid-April conclusion, one fact is undeniable: Justin Trudeau has won it. The Montreal MP has raised more money than all of…
Power to the people
My Mom, living in Kingston as she does, is happy about this. So too all of her friends and neighbours. Story here. Can the provincial government ignore something like this?…
Paywitless
Isn’t this stupid? Isn’t it beyond idiotic? Let me put this in caps, so my plaintive cry is heard by Globians:WHY TWEET A LINK TO A STORY THAT IS BEHIND…
