Time for Canada to work with Europe
U.S. President Donald Trump has put both Canada and Europe at the children’s table in deciding on Ukraine’s fate and other global conflicts.
First as tragedy, then as farce
Donald Trump is probably not going to start a war. Adolf Hitler was the tragedy; Trump is the farce. But even farces can do great damage. In this case, the principal victim of his antics will be the international rule of law, a fragile and relatively recent invention that has probably spared us from a nuclear war for the past 80 years.
The growing threat of forever chemicals
The transition to natural refrigerants offers a viable way forward, but there is an urgent need for legislative action and improved regulations to accelerate it. This would help reduce dangerous PFAS pollution, and reduce emissions at the same time, a win for both health and the environment.
Canada needs a unity government to get us through Trump’s chaos
A successful unity government spanning the political centre, uniting the Liberal and Conservative parties of Canada into the next administration, is not without precedent.
Next federal government should finally privatize Canada Post

Persuade the Russian president that he simply cannot win militarily, setting the stage for substantive peace negotiations.
Arctic security needs a Team Canada commitment
Diplomacy across the Arctic’s deepening strategic divide is now dangerously dormant, just as tensions rise and military operations scale up.
