“The small fringe minority of people who are on their way to Ottawa, who are holding unacceptable views that they’re expressing, do not represent the views of Canadians who have been there for each other, who know that ‘following the science’ and stepping up to protect each other is the best way to continue to ensure our freedoms, our rights, our values as a country.” -Justin Trudeau, Jan. 26, 2022

About the newsletter

If you share a distaste for the madness of crowds, policies of managed decline, and the cultivated incuriosity of government-subsidized journalism, this may be the place for you.

The majority of posts are free to all, thanks to the generosity of those who are in a position to support with a paid monthly, annual, or ‘founding member’ subscription.

In addition to my eternal gratitude, paid subscribers receive an exclusive monthly column, commenting privileges, and a direct line to my email.

Thanks for stopping by. If you have yet to do so, join the thousands of subscribers on the mailing list.
