Worried about trying to get rid of the appliances and other junk in her attic in these days of green disposal “I am now faced with taking them unspayed [that is, without the condensers etc. removed] to the landfill and finding out what it feels like to be rejected by a dump.”

“To have a passing fever, or the smallpox is nothing, but to be oppressed by a feeling of faintness for whole years, to see all one’s relish for things destroyed, to have yet enough life to want to enjoy it but too little strength to do so, to become useless and unbearable to oneself, to die little by little, that is what I have suffered, and what has been more cruel than all my other trials.”
Voltaire, quoted in Cleveland Bruce Chase The Young Voltaire [in his first letter on returning to France from a youthful trip to England where he learned much but found the climate horrible]

In my latest National Post column I talk back to the City of Ottawa minions who ordered me to exterminate my holistic garden and its native plants and pollinators.
In my latest Loonie Politics column I ask how people can continue to believe in the competence, wisdom and compassion of government when they have daily evidence of its inept and callous folly.
In my latest National Post column I ridicule the notion that Canada must bring in half a million immigrants a year to build homes for the half-million immigrants we bring in a year to build homes for all the immigrants.
In my latest Loonie Politics column I berate Canadian “conservative” politicians for being as clueless about how to avoid wedge issues as they are spineless about how to approach them.
