I have been taking antidepressants and benzodiazepines to treat my mental illness since 1989. The toll they exact on my body and mind far exceeds whatever benefit they offer. There has to be a better way.

From here it’s a slippery slope to fullbore autocracy.
Another video of Senator Padilla’s violent arrest at DHS Sec Noem’s press conference in LA. You can see him thrown to the ground by FBI agents and handcuffed.

So, what’s the deal with this Jeffrey Rath character and his Alberta referendum ballot question? His ambition seems to be “transformational.”

As one of Canada's "owners,” I am proud of the job Mark Carney did representing the country in Washington today. The Prime Minister more than held his own with the Orange Menace.

I voted for Mark Carney and the Liberal Party because I roundly reject the notion that Canada has ever been "broken" and the rest of Mr. Pollievre's fatuous slogans. Keep the Trumpy stuff south of the 49th parallel. Whatever our shortcomings, I believe in the true north, strong and free.

Margaret Atwood, here for a writers’ conference, walked directly past me in a crowd of thousands in the central plaza of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, this evening. My jaw dropped — a legend in my midst.
