My final appearance on the show so thanks to all who listened, to Anthony for being a great host, and to all those behind the scenes who made it happen.
In my latest Epoch Times column I argue that a real-time parliamentary hearing into the government’s pandemic response is necessary on medical and constitutional grounds… and is actually better for the Liberals, even if some of it is embarrassing, than blundering ahead in darkness.
In the National Post I remember as always those who gave all their tomorrows for my today, and try to treat it as the precious gift that it is.
On The News Forum with Tanya Granic Allen I discussed why we remember on November 11 and what we should remember. (You can also watch it on Facebook here.)
“no rational creature can be supposed to change his condition with an intention to be worse”
John Locke The Second Treatise of Government
In my latest Epoch Times column I say that delivering partisan mush instead of a specific program in the Throne Speech, and treating a new session of Parliament as just more politicking, is a serious attack on how Parliament works.
“If all decorum, discipline, and subordination are to be destroyed, and universal Pyrrhonism, anarchy, and insecurity of property are to be introduced, nations will soon wish their books in ashes, seek for darkness and ignorance, superstition and fanaticism, as blessings, and follow the standard of the first mad despot, who, with the enthusiasm of another Mahomet, will endeavor to obtain them.”
John Adams, quoted in Russell Kirk The Conservative Mind
