Michael Higgins: Carney Liberals grudgingly admit antisemitism is a problem (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Carney Liberals are to be commended on finally taking concrete action to tackle the scourge of antisemitism, but as recent fatal and terrifying events have shown, the lateness of their initiative has allowed the ancient hatred to flourish. We must also wait to see if the new tools will be adequate for police who will have the difficult job of enforcing the law. The federal government recently released a progress report on its National Commitments to Combat Antisemitism. In its introduction,
Michael Higgins: Canada's unimaginative media can't get enough of these academics (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Earlier this month, Canadian academic Michael Geist started his day by doing 14 radio interviews on “digital sovereignty” following Donald Trump’s decision to rename Lake Ontario.

Michael Higgins: Is Mark Carney using Canada to make up for Brexit? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Mark Carney’s admiration for the European Union is so deep that he was accused of aiding and abetting Project Fear, the campaign to stop the U.K. exiting the massive economic bloc. As governor of the Bank of England, he failed to stop Brexit but as prime minister his Project Fear II against the U.S. has been far more successful and far more galvanizing. If Wall Street Journal is to be believed, Carney is now trying to integrate Canada into the European Union, a move that would surely entail a lo
