Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

This is one of the most beautiful cultures in the world. I have often thought, if the colonizers had tried the native ways, we all would be in a better place today.

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

Make sure you read the order!!
I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home.
But did you look at the judge's order?
It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept."

Remember the hypocrisy of Danielle Smith telling Albertans we can't afford net zero and the power grid would be at risk if forced to adopt EV's. A year later she's building out and pushing data centres which would consume more power than any EV's ever sold and used in Alberta. #abpoli

This documentary was made by a French television crew when I was still an MP.
I am in the last third of the film. This is a heavy and dark story of the abuse of Indigenous rights. But it must be told.
Canada must know its history in order to move forward.

Opinion: Carney picks the wrong battle in Quebec City
Another historic confrontation is more perfectly suited to this moment — the defeat of American invaders in 1775 by combined forces.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
