Brookman: Reforms needed for Canada to capitalize on its opportunities (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As Canadians face an economic trade war with the United States, and Alberta faces its own group of insurrectionists, we cannot believe that things will just return to normal in the months ahead — no matter what normal might be. Here are three ideas that governments at all levels can focus on as we emerge from these challenges. There must be parliamentary reform. We all learned “representation by population” in elementary school, yet Canada has drifted far from that simple principle. Compare New
Brookman: Biggest risk in October referendum is not casting a vote (opens the original)
Read excerpt
GTVO. Those four letters stand for “get the vote out,” and my plea is for everyone to request mail-in ballots and ensure you send them in before the October referendum. None of this Alberta separation discussion actually makes sense to me, and none of the leaders of that movement or the arguments they put forth inspire any reality. When confronted by one woman who wanted to argue for Alberta separation, I asked: “Do you want to show a passport to drive to the Okanagan?” She looked at me like I h
Brookman: Time to stop the rot and address downtown social disorder (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We all know that an apple rots from the core outward, but perhaps we need to consider if that applies to our city as well.

One of my friends relayed a story of having dinner at one of the terrific restaurants on the mall and experienci

Watching Dr. Anthony Fauci giving his non-testimony last week was distressing on many levels. Here was a man, as former director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, whom we seemed to find somewhat calming during the two years of COVID, and we had faith in his recommendations and comments. I took the vaccine, and would do so again, but that is not the issue. The issue today is that Fauci’s testimony only added to the uncertainty many people are experiencing about th
Brookman: City council needs to 'tackle the obvious and focus on the easy wins' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The New York Times conducted a one-hour interview with that city’s 34-year-old Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who calls himself a Democratic Socialist — and who many of us would consider a radical left-winger. His proposals for government-run supermarkets, free public transit and overhauling the tax system can only be thought of as “over the top” and reflect a young idealist with a lack of experience. I listened to the interview with fascination, and discovered that Mamdani sounded rational and reasonabl
