Some personal news to share. My regular column with La Presse has been suspended indefinitely this week, after 25 years and more than 1,000 columns. This was not my decision. The decision is linked to recent public comments I made on social media regarding the evolving media landscape in Canada, including reflections on government support for media and its potential implications. I understand that these are sensitive and complex issues, and my remarks may not have aligned with the publication’s perspective. While I am disappointed, I fully respect their decision and remain grateful for the opportunity I’ve had to contribute over the years. I would also like to note that my contributions were always made on a voluntary basis. I was never compensated for my columns, and have personally supported La Presse through a paid subscription throughout that time. It has truly been a privilege to write for such an important institution. I continue to believe that open, thoughtful discussions about the future of media in Canada are both necessary and healthy.

Air Canada pilots did their best to save as many lives as possible. Air Canada flight attendants moved passengers quickly and safely. I don’t care if he spoke pig latin — this is not why a CEO should be fired.

“I’m so glad to be here tonight with our wonderful Prime Minister.” She’s lived in the U.S. for 60 YEARS, since Eisenhower was the U.S. president and hasn’t paid taxes in Canada since Diefenbaker was PM. 😂

JUST IN: PM Mark Carney presents Joni Mitchell with her lifetime achievement award at the Junos. She praises him in her speech: "This man is a blessing, you guys are so fortunate." "I'm living in the States and you know what's happening there."

"Our plan is to Trump-proof the economy by investing massively in Canadian economic independence using the unmatched power of public ownership to ensure the fundamentals of a good life," says new NDP Leader Avi Lewis in victory speech to party convention in Winnipeg. #cdnpoli

@CPAC_TV "PUBLIC Ownership." There it is in a nutshell. Take control of everything turn it into public ownership. What's mine is mine, and what's yours is mine too. No business in their right mind is going to put their money into that system. Business will leave.

It's amazing how the NDP has gone from a party of workers and farmers to a party of extremely privileged shitbirds flaunting about who hates blue collar workers more.

Wab Kinew defends his use of "Epstein class": "When I say the Epstein class should fight the Epstein war, I'm attacking Donald Trump. I'm attacking Jeff Bezos. I'm attacking Mark Zuckerberg. I'm attacking Jeffrey Epstein. I'm attacking Sam Altman."

This is an excellent/must watch podcast about Michael Ma with Sam Cooper and Brian Lilley. Lilley has gone from being somewhat of a skeptic about Ma's CCP ties to being gravely concerned. Sam brings the facts. Two serious journalists who are NOT part of Pravda on the Rideau.

@WeAreCanProud Somehow, it looks like they should be in some kind of a specialty movie but I have no idea what type of movie it would be.

Avi Lewis is going to make the NDP the most environmentally friendly they've ever been, because the entire party will be able to get to Parliament on a tandem bicycle.

@brianlilley He's trying to make a name for himself in a completely different area but that's not his job. He wasn't elected to give speeches on subjects that are none of his business. His constituents should tell him to shut up and get back to work for his province.

This is a bizarre comment and I don’t see a way to read it that does see rampant antisemitism.

If you had to save one of these Ministers from being fired from Carney’s cabinet, which one would it be? And no, ‘none’ doesn’t apply here, you have to pick one. It could be for comedy relief or maybe you even think they have redeeming qualities. 😂

PM Carney on Canada's contribution to Arctic security: "We already have the second largest icebreaker fleet in the world after Russia. Once our icebreaker program is completed, we will have the largest. We will have 42 icebreakers. The Americans have one."
