April 9 is the anniversary of the execution of Dietrich Bonhoeffer and the Canadian storming of Vimy Ridge.
This is my reflection on courage in an era of complicity and moral cowardice.
Trump is being aided by the "great grovel" of business/political leaders.

The growing concentration of wealth occuring in Canada is obscene and dangerous.

But the Liberals' design and rollout of the capital gains increase last year was poor.

We need a much more strategic and careful approach to wealth inequality, which must include tax.
