Is Mark Carney’s cabinet 'transformational'? Does anyone care? For those of us who treat cabinet swearing-in ceremonies as melodrama, this is all a big deal. It’s like the Oscars for people with a vitamin D deficiency. But most Canadians just want their problems ...

In my final column for @nationalobserver.com, I remind people that most Canadians have no idea who makes up Mark Carney's Cabinet. They don't follow politics as a sport.

They want their problems solved.

“And I’m like, what do you mean, you ‘do your own research’? You running a double-blind study in your living room, dawg?”

Pierre Poilievre Meets with Far-Right Extremist Group at Nova Scotia-New Brunswick Border “Everyone’s happy with what you’re doing,” Poilievre tells conspiratorial fringe group camped out on side of highway

More than just a Pantone match for Trump, Polievre is fanboying with
Diagolon again: an “accelerationist” group, according to people who study extremism. Accelerationism explains the sum total of inexplicable shit happening in the US better than anything else.

They let fucking Levant scare them into not doing thier job. Win win for Polievre. Scrum happens: he gets asked why his dick is so big. Scrum gets canceled, and he gets out of being asked about his security check or Trumpian deportation plan.

It's hard to find the words to express my deep rage about how far right media has manages to flourish, while mainstream media remains steadfast in their maginalization of anyone who dares to challenge the status quo from the left (even the centee left!)
