As Canadians, we like to think we’re strong and free. But, when it comes to the wealth gap, we’re looking more like America Lite—better manners, but almost all the inequality.

Beautiful city. Resourceful and resilient people.
First visited a few weeks after the then Soviet military left in June 1991.

For anyone familiar with Orwell’s book, Animal Farm, the key word in this sentence is the first one. Will “some” gradually become “few” and eventually, heaven forbid, “no”?

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

Proud to have been a part of this unique series over the years. 👇

How Ottawa Spends was such an incredibly useful annual book series, first published in 1981. It's really sad that Carleton's School of Public Policy and Administration phased it out in 2019.
I still use it frequently, but how nice would it be to have editions covering developments since 2019.

Look for what the first Carney budget contains and how it is received by Canadians, how the Conservatives respond, and how the NDP leadership candidates perform, and then watch what subsequent polls reveal in shifts…
