Emergencies Act hearings come to an end – Will Teflon Trudeau be held accountable?

December 2022 OK, so the big take-away from the testimony of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his fellow ministers is that it doesn’t matter what the letter of the law is under the Emergencies Act, we are going to make up our own definition of what constitutes a national emergency.

November 2022 Published in the Toronto Sun, 5 December 2022 Re: The value of CBC (Toronto Sun, Letters to the Editor, 27 November): Wow!

Just adding a little context to CUPE’s “victory”

November 2022 Not that I want to knock CUPE of their smug high-horse (OK, I do, but I still have a point), but a little context to Premier Doug Ford’s pledge to revoke Bill-28 is needed. CUPE turning this into a David & Goliath victory, but I’d like to argue that Doug Ford decided to …

Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino is “Shocked!” about lack of RCMP transparency

October 2022 With an apparent lack of self-awareness, Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino is “Shocked! Shocked, to find that” the RCMP is displaying a lack of transparency by choosing not to release the badge numbers of the officers who cleared the protesters from the Ambassador Bridge blockade in Windsor last February. That’s the same Marco …
