Chris Selley: Handing a 'blank cheque' to Stelco wouldn't have been so unusual for Canada (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Barring some successful last-minute inducement, Stelco — that is, the Steel Company of Canada, est. 1910, Hamilton, Ont. — is “indefinitely” idling its cold-rolled and galvanized operations, at an estimated cost of 350 to 500 jobs. Prime Minister Mark Carney is “very disappointed.” He has vowed to pursue remedy under the terms of the government approval of Stelco’s 2024 sale to Cleveland-Cliffs, the Ohio-based steel colossus. (Alas for Hamilton, and every other steel town, there are several stee
Chris Selley: If we'd prefer drug-free prisons to 'safe snorting,' we need a system rethink (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s the biggest paper-straw controversy since … well, I guess there has only ever been one until now. It was when Justin Trudeau’s government felt it worthwhile to spend time foisting these usually useless things upon us as a matter of law. But now paper straws are the MacGuffin in the latest war against “harm reduction.” We learned this week that Corrections Canada has approved a “safe snorting” program in federal prisons for inmates to reduce “the risk of internal nose cuts that could occur f
Chris Selley: Finally, a pandemic-era leader admits people deserve an inquiry after some 'insane' reactions (opens the original)

Gavin Newsom, governor of California and a potential Democratic candidate for president, is a hard man to like if you don’t already like him.

Neither is his habit of mimicking/satirizing Donald Trump in his social media posts, which has been one of Newsom’s specialties. He famously posted a rendering of himself carved into M
Chris Selley: Avi Lewis embraces collective guilt for Jews, but never for Muslims (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“For Jewish people, the personal has always been political and the political always personal. This year I’m reflecting on the fact that we failed to do our part to stop an ongoing genocide committed in our name,” federal NDP leader Avi Lewis wrote, calamitously, on the occasion of Yom Kippur. Pithy counterpoint, courtesy of Liberal MP Anthony Housefather: “Holding Canadian Jews and Jews across the world collectively responsible for events over which they have no control is despicable,” he wrote.
Chris Selley: A European alliance deserves more seriousness than Carney's treated it with (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As a strategic communications exercise, the Liberal government’s pursuit of some kind of enhanced relationship with the European Union has officially reached the status of farce. First the Wall Street Journal reported over the weekend that Canada was seeking “associate membership in the EU. Prime Minister Mark Carney quickly and unambiguously tamped that down on Sunday: “We’re not looking to become a member of the European Union,” he said. Then, on Wednesday, EU President Ursula von der Leyden a
