Anyone advocating for Alberta separation from Canada, especially Danielle Smith and Alberta legislature, should pack their bags and renounce their citizenship. They can leave but the land will stay.

The land belongs to First Nations and the treaties are with the Crown. #cdnpoli #AlbertaSeparation

Poilievre’s plan puts polluters first and communities last. This proposal means more destruction, more corporate greed, and more overreach. Leaders should fight for Canadians, not big industry.

With US tariffs disrupting trade, Canada is looking elsewhere for economic partnerships. The EU could be a promising alternative, but to fully unlock the potential of a North Atlantic alliance, ratifying CETA must be the first step. thewalrus.ca/canada-eu/

Every day, I become more convinced that populists are more lazy than crazy.

Pluralism requires a lot of work. Building consensus, working with divergent interests, working with checks and balances.

Populists skip all that, ginning up fear, fake majorities, and a shallow sense of the public good.

I am just going to put this out there. With all that is going on in the world. We all need to work harder at re-normalizing decent, good, and respectful behavior.

Hannah Arendt says the most evil thing about fascism weren't the atrocities but the willingness of people to go along.
Trump has cut funds to the most desperately poor.
He threatens Canada.
But he can't tell you where to spend your money.
His economy needs our tourism $$.
You know what to do.

In October 2023, a right-wing government swept to power in New Zealand on a wave of populist anger similar to Canada’s.

The results so far? Government debt forecast to rise. The deficit got worse. Unemployment is increasing. Craig Renney writes.

Out of frustration we tried electing right-wing populists. Now things are worse.
