In my latest Loonie Politics column I ridicule echo-chamber media that spent the entire hearing saying every decent person wanted Brett Kavanaugh voted down and expelled from decent society and the Republican Party was doing itself huge electoral harm over the issue, only to turn around and report that Republicans are keen to campaign on it in the Congressional midterms while Democrats want to avoid it.

In my latest National Post column I warn that the largest lesson of the Christine Blasey Ford-Brett Kavanaugh confrontation could easily be seen as: Avoid the opposite sex entirely.

"If there are commands of God, then there must be rights of man."

G.K. Chesterton in “The Empire of the Insect” in What’s Wrong with the World, quoted in Gilbert Magazine Vol. 12 #4 (Jan.-Feb. 2009).

In my latest Loonie Politics piece I say the real question about shrinking Toronto City Council is why people who call Doug Ford an evil rights-hating maniac for invoking the Notwithstanding Clause to protect legislative authority aren’t even slightly concerned about judges routinely invoking Section 1 of the Charter to infringe fundamental rights like free speech.
