Pearson: Canada needs more of Britons' Blitz spirit (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The world has become less predictable. Our closest ally has become an economic adversary. Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government has responded by talking about the things that, too often, have been postponed: pipelines, ports, mines, lumber, defence and major national infrastructure. That is important. But are Canadians prepared to act like a country that believes in its own future? During the Blitz, Britain was confronted with an enemy that appeared capable of destroying its cities and breakin
Pearson: Here's to the quiet life (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We have become strangely suspicious of quiet lives. We celebrate the person who has built something enormous, who rises quickly, speaks boldly, accumulates accomplishments and leaves behind evidence they were here. We measure lives by scale. We ask what someone achieved, what they earned, and what they became. And yet, there is an older possibility, one that seems almost radical now. Perhaps the best life is not the loudest one. Perhaps a good life is a quiet life, lived respectfully, attentivel
Pearson: Homelessness is a Queen's Park problem, not London's (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s the lie we tell ourselves about homelessness, and London has fallen for it, repeatedly. We drive past the encampment, step around the sleeping bag in the doorway, read the coroner’s report about another death in the cold, and we tell ourselves a story that lets us keep driving – it’s a local failure, a municipal shortfall, a problem council hasn’t gotten around to solving yet. It’s a comforting story. It is also not true, and it’s time we stopped telling it to ourselves. Homelessness in Can
Pearson: Zelenskyy's uneasy lesson for stable democracies (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is a certain kind of person who reveals what the rest of us are for. We don’t notice them until history tightens around them, then suddenly, they stand in a light that exposes the smallness of our ordinary evasions. Volodymyr Zelenskyy was, of all things, a comedian. A man fluent in irony, not authority. He built a career on the sly recognition that power is mostly performance, then won Ukraine’s presidency with three-quarters of the vote against 30 rivals. It is tempting to read this as a
Pearson: Loss of John Lawrence asks something of us (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There are people who move through a life the way a river moves through a valley – quietly, patiently, shaping everything they touch without ever seeming to try. John Lawrence was such a person. He died last week at 93, and though the passing of a long life should feel like the natural close of a book, it landed harder than that. It feels less like an ending than a subtraction. Something has been taken out of the room, and we are left to notice how much of the room he was holding up. I have been
