False flag or mentally ill? Which one is it?

October 2018 With the arrest of Cesar Sayoc in the case of the mail bombs delivered to vocal critics of President Donal Trump, I can’t help but cast a cynical eye on the whole affair. Firstly, I unequivocally condemn any violence.  We can disagree about anything and everything but if you have to resort to …

Not crying over lost revenue

Published in the Toronto Sun 19 October 2018 Re “Bad deal either way” (Lorrie Goldstein, Oct. 17): Sure the government will forgo $3 billion in revenue by cancelling cap-and-trade, but how much tax revenue did Ontario lose and would have continued to lose as businesses and the jobs they provide moved to jurisdictions without any …

Let the voters decide

September 2018 To Andrea Horwath:  you say that there are more important issues that the Ontario government should be dealing with instead of passing Bill 31, so why not allow the bill to go to a vote so they can get on to other business? To all the Toronto City councilors opposing Bill 31:  you …

So who exactly is the hypocrite here?

September 2018 To all those who think Premier Doug Ford is a dictator and a hypocrite for “forcing his personal will” in cutting Toronto council “simply because he was elected”:  did you object to Premier Dalton McGuinty forcing wind turbines and solar farms on unwilling rural municipalities?  How about when he forced the health tax …

Politics as usual in Toronto

September 2018 Although I’m in favour of cutting Toronto City Council from 47 members to 25, I must congratulate the mayor and councilors for winning their court challenge.  You all worked very quickly, very efficiently and very hard to present your case to the court and you prevailed, regardless of Premier Ford’s invocation of the …

Being a POW doesn’t negate bravery in combat

September 2018 With the recent death of Senator John McCain, the world lost an honourable man and yes, a war hero. Much was made in recent years by a particular person about the fact that he wasn’t a hero because he was taken prisoner during the Vietnam War.  This classless and insensitive comment overlooks the …

A gun ban in Toronto? Yeah, good luck with that!

August 2018 I would like to publicly state that I completely support Toronto Mayor John Torry’s plan to ban guns from Toronto.  I know this ban will work because the last time I went to Toronto, the border guard at Highway 400 and Steeles Avenue asked me if I had any firearms with me and …

Buck a beer is about choice

August 2018 Ever since Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced that the government would allow brewers to sell their beer for as low as $1, many have openly mocked this announcement.  Some of those critics are likely not Doug Ford fans and will criticize anything Ford says, but some of them do have financial reasons for …

Luca Brasi is here to see you

Published in the Toronto Sun 31 August 2018 In the wake of the announcement that President Donald Trump has reached a new trade agreement with Mexico to replace the NAFTA agreement, one that Canada has until this Friday (31 August) to join, it’s becoming quite apparent just how badly Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has blown …

Time to show some leadership Prime Minister Trudeau

August 2018 Regarding the dispute with Saudi Arabia, Justin Trudeau has a real opportunity to show some true leadership here. What we should do in response to Saudi Arabia’s actions is immediately start ramping up our own oil industry so we can stop importing Saudi oil. Get the Energy East, Trans Mountain, Northern Gateway and …
