Ask the columnist: Quebec elections (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Question from Mike who’s asking, you know, what’s gonna happen with the Quebec election on October 5th. And the quick answer: a mess. It doesn’t look at the moment like any party can get a majority. You need 64 seats, and the closest party to get to that, if you look at all the polling aggregators as we record this around Labour Day, is the Parti Québécois with maybe 50. You’re looking at maybe two dozen for the Liberal Party of Quebec, mostly in Montreal. You’re looking at 25-27 maybe or so for

Politics, but for smart people: Federalist Trump Card (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You can always count on a Quebec politician to tell you the open, honest, unvarnished truth right to your face, and with that accent you like so much. Tuesday morning, Paul St-Pierre Plamondon made it official : a Parti Québécois government will not hold a referendum on Quebec’s future as long as Donald Trump is in the White House. Formally, that means no referendum before January 20, 2029. Or later, depending on how unconstitutional 45-47 wants to be. The leader of the PQ says he doesn’t want t
Politics, but for smart people: We are failing those aboard USS Lincoln (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Details about the story on the USS Abraham Lincoln are available through this New York Times story (follow the links to the trade publications for more information.) I may not look like much. I’m 55 years old, a woman, a journalist, a professional loudmouth. But I like to think I’m tough. Three black belts in karate. Two-time world champion in fighting, won in my late forties, not that long ago. I train every day. When I play Ultimate, I can more or less keep up with people half my age. For my d
Politics, but for smart people: Out-Trumping Trump (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is no shortage of experts on international relations, negotiation theory and the history of the Middle East explaining just how much of a pickle Donald Trump is in with Iran. But you don’t need any of that expertise to see it. You just need eyes, positioned roughly in front of the eye sockets, pointed at what’s happening. I couldn’t tell you what the latest version of the deal is. I’m not sure anyone can; it changes by the week. What I can tell you is what the Iranian regime will do with i
