  • Effect Senate Reform via Elections

    I believe I have come up with a solution for how to get each party represented in Parliament without adding new steps to a citizen’s electoral process, and even without the need for additional stumping on the campaign trail. If you read this and have actually come across the same, or similar, idea before please […]

  • Why Ideology Generates Bad Policy

    Since the current federal election campaign began, and the CBC, University of Toronto & Université de Montréal unveiled their Vote Compass tool, more than ever before I’ve noticed just how partisan people can get when you’re not even talking about policies.

  • Diane Beattie, I Want My $451,000 Back!

    Dear LHSC Board of Directors and Diane Beattie, I want my $451,000 back. That’s right, every single penny of severance that was recently afforded to Diane Beattie after the LHSC Board of Directors forced her to resign. When a scandal like this one breaks out, there is no reason whatsoever that such gross misconduct should […]

    A few years ago I became a supporter of the NDP. I listened to Jack Layton and his vision for Canada and was inspired. Not to mention that I couldn’t stand Paul Martin and the Liberals seemed to be agreeing more and more with the Conservatives on issues that I did not. Recently it has […]
