In my latest National Post column I explain how anyone who actually wants to have a sensible conversation on guns not a shouting match, or a virtue-signalling festival, could go about it.

In my latest National Post column I say one of the most glaring flaws in the 1982 Constitution, including the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, was the failure even to attempt to put checks and balances on the judiciary.
“human behaviour ultimately derives from human volition – tastes, attitudes, values, and so on – and these aspects of volition in turn are either formed entirely by choices or are the product of biological or social processes that we cannot or will not change.... The one thing we cannot easily do, if we can do it at all, is change, by plan and systematically, the minds of men.”
