Published in the Barrie Advance/Metroland Media, 28 April 2023 Re: Editorial cartoon for Simcoe.com, 27 April 2023: Your editorial comic in the 27 April edition does need some context. While it’s true that Pierre Poilievre’s salary is paid by the Canadian taxpayers, as are the salaries of all politicians, at all levels, the big difference …

April 2023 In speaking about electric vehicles to a young-looking cashier at my local grocery store, I was surprised to learn that she was not at all interested in owning one herself. I thought the younger generation were all on board with “saving the planet,” having been told for years by Al Gore and Greta …

April 2023 I’m frankly confused why jurisdictions like Toronto, and Ontario in general, complain about a lack of affordable housing. In many cities across Ontario, there are numerous empty, or underused, municipal and provincially-owned buildings that could easily be converted into affordable housing. Municipalities and provincial ministries that have inherited housing from closed from closed …

April 2023 While I would never accuse Doug Ford of being an environmental zealot like Steven Gilbeault, the insistence that by pulling “…critical minerals out of the ground to put in the EV vehicles and the batteries to make sure we take cars off the road,” doesn’t really make a lot of environmental sense when …

March 2023 As a retired police officer, I understand that a person is innocent until proven guilty, and Don Valley North Member of Parliament (MP) Han Dong may not have done anything contrary to the best interests of Canada, including being a agent for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). That said, I do have a …

Published in the Toronto Sun, 27 March 2023 If the solution to effectively combating the escalating violence on Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) property is more patrols by Toronto Police, whether on paid-duty or not, then maybe it’s time for the TTC to admit that TTC Special Constables should be elevated to full-fledged police officers, or …

March 2023 Remember back three years ago when we were told that closing the border due to Covid-19 was racist and ineffective; that vaccines would prevent us from getting Covid-19; that masks were unnecessary, until they were; that Covid-19 originated from infected bats at a Wuhan wet market? Oh, and don’t forget the declaration that …

February 2023 On 17 February, Justice Paul Rouleau released his Public Order Emergency Commission report, related to the invocation of the Emergencies Act in February 2022, and it’s a mixed bag. While I disagree with Justice Rouleau’s finding that invoking the Emergencies Act was justified, I’m pleased to hear that, amongst other points, that he …

Published in the Toronto Sun/Postmedia, 15 February 2023 The sudden resignation of Toronto Mayor John Tory, in the wake of his admission of an affair with a staffer, is a sign that there are still one in public office who have a sense of decency.
