I will NOT be renewing my Canadian Association of Journalists membership.
We need organizations like the CAJ now more than ever.
But they become the very thing they are supposed to defend against with actions like this.

I see tomorrow is Friday.
Is Friday going a tariff day, or a some-tariffs day, or a no-tariffs day?
Or will it be some other kind of day, like an annex-Greenland day, or a Hannibal-Lecter-wants-to-have-you-for-dinner day, or an Arnold-Palmer-size day, or something else?
I just can’t keep track.

Minnesota continues to amaze me.
Minneapolis has piles of snow taller than you if you walk along the street. But… you never have to walk outside.
There are ~10 miles of bridges and tunnels connecting the city in the “skyway system.“🤠

Trump has issued an order purporting to bar lawyers he does not like from federal courthouses. I assume he'll lose the ensuing litigation.
But take the order as a confession of malign intent-and understand that he will seek similarly illegal ways to deny voting rights in 2026.

Doug Ford’s anti-bike lane Bill 212 was always bad policy, but now also seems like bad politics. PCs handily lost Etobicoke-Lakeshore last night, home of the “controversial” Bloor West lanes. And PC vote share in bordering Etobicoke Centre was basically flat from 2022. What was the point?
