Why Does Poilievre Keep Lying?
Pierre Poilievre is a career politician, without any experience, any ability and any track record of success. A man who lost his seat in the last election and managed to lose a 25 point lead in the polls, within a month of an election. Why? Because Canadians know a loser when they see one. A…

www.cbc.ca/news/politics/conservative-mps-poilievre-support-convoy-organizers-1.7590805 Pierre Poilievre, once again, has shown that he has learned absolutely nothing from his ill-fated support of the extreme right in Canada.

Mr. Trump – You’re Labouring Under a Delusion – Again.
Canada Isn’t Interested – Not Now – Not Ever This will be a very short editorial, and it isn’t satire, unlike Trump’s assertions that Canadians want to join America. Nothing could be farther from the truth. In fact, the latest poll taken in Canada clearly illustrates the ignorance and stupidity of that assertion. In a…

The Game of Chicken
Donald Trump may appear to be exactly what Americans like, as long as his coercion and threats actually result in getting what Donald Trump wants.

ON MARCH 23, 2024 BY PHOTOMOTOMAN WAWAIN MOTORCYCLING Harley-Davidson as a Case Study in American Purchasing Yesterday I wrote an article that spoke to some of the challenges that Harley-Davidson are undergoing in 2024, but have been heading towards unabated, (except for one year in 2021) for the last ten years.

Dissolution or Destruction?
The Politics of Anarchy For the last seven years, I’ve attempted to gain some understanding of a bifurcated America. Partisanship has taken over, the parties are irreconcilable, and the capacity of government to make policy is diminishing. America’s divisions now define America. Whether North/South, Black/White, Educated/Uneducated, Christian/Other, Liberal/Conservative, Rich/Poor, Blue America/Red America. The hyperpartisan behavior…
