In my latest LooniePolitics column I say budgets have become so routinely vote-buying exercises that people cheer or boo depending if they get a good price for theirs not because they think it’s a good or bad idea to loot the Treasury for private gain.
In the latest issue of The Landowner magazine I say the SNC-Lavalin scandal reminds us that if government is not fundamentally a moral enterprise, it will be fundamentally an immoral one.
In my latest Mercatornet article I worry that the news that Donald Trump is not a Russian agent should have made people happy and instead they all got even angrier.
