In my latest Loonie Politics column I lampoon the Procurement Ombud boast that in seeking value for money the Canadian government no longer seeks value for money… and add that it couldn’t if it tried. And while I’m at it I ridicule “Ombud” as a job title.
In my latest National Post column I ask why, if Orange Man Bad has swept aside the U.S. Constitution while we in Canada uphold peace, order and good government, Donald Trump is having trouble getting his budget past his own party in Congress while Mark Carney isn’t bothering submitting his to Parliament.
In my latest Epoch Times column I call it the height of mendacious hypocrisy, not to mention fatal to national self-confidence, for Canadian elites to keep insisting that the country is on stolen land they have no intention of giving back.
In my latest Epoch Times column I ridicule government pride and priorities in sending one of our few remaining naval assets to Antarctica to confirm the state’s views on climate instead of defending Canada.
In my latest Loonie Politics column I write a letter of expectations so our rookie Prime Minister will understand what he has to achieve if he wants to get rehired when his probationary term is up.
In my latest Epoch Times column I say a massive issue confronting the Liberals that was not discussed during the election is the increasing incompetence of the state at basic tasks as well as grandiose ones.
In my latest Epoch Times column I suggest we could make party platforms less preposterous and ephemeral by insisting that the politicians explain to us what practical obstacles they see to implementing their focus-grouped visions.
In my latest Loonie Politics column I argue that while all the other major parties are manifestly unfit to govern for one reason or another, or several, the Conservatives’ chronic lack of the courage of their convictions is not a tactically brilliant meeting of the moment but a potentially fatal ducking of it.
