In my latest National Post column I ask how standing up for Canadian values ever became controversial. p.s. if you want to help me stand up for those values, please consider becoming a patron for a couple of dollars a month (please note Patreon pledges are in US dollars).

John Ivison has a good piece in today's National Post about the Liberals' hollow "consultation process" on abolishing the voting system we've used since the common people were first admitted to Parliament, in favour of one that will make them almost impossible to beat. And if you're worried about this change and the undemocratic, arguably unconstitutional way it's likely to happen, and live in the Ottawa area, you might want to attend the MY VOTE MATTERS Ottawa event this evening at the Ukrainian Community Centre (1000 Byron) from 6:00 to 7:30 and share your concerns.

In my latest National Post column I say that while Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump loom horrifyingly larger, we should spare a little horror as U.S. President Barack Obama looms ever smaller.

In my latest National Post column I say the European Union ordering Ireland to make a tax lunge at Apple shows the wisdom of the Brexit... and maybe not just for the UK.

In my latest National Post column I say that it’s time to turn our backs on computer modeling of the economy and look at people instead… like Adam Smith.

In my latest National Post commentary I ask why, if Canada is not a high-tax country, do Canadians pay more in taxes than on food, clothing and shelter combined?

In my latest National Post column I say the virtual disappearance of the famous 1973 "Orange Paper" asking fundamental questions about Canada's social programs is a sign that those questions have no answers.

In my latest National Post column, I urge the makers of the forthcoming film The Silver Chair to do it faithfully in both senses.
