Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

WTF Canada?

Canada has this reputation as this boring, more fair, more just, more equitable America.  More than just America's Hat, Canada is America's Super Ego.  It's a lot of what we wish we were: mature, reasonable, tolerant, just.

And then Toronto goes and elects Rob Ford.

So props to you, Canada, for keeping us all guessing.
