Baranyai: Does map size matter in geopolitics? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jacques Cartier and John Cabot must be rolling in their graves, after back-to-school shoppers noticed Hilroy had been selling a version of its iconic scribblers decorated with images of Canada that somehow missed Newfoundland and Cape Breton. Canadians got their dander up, particularly on the East Coast. Hilroy has said it’s correcting the omission, which it attributed to a “production error,” an explanation that offers little to no insight. Maps, and their questionable integrity, are getting an
Baranyai: Trump's tactics getting tiresome (opens the original)

Our lake of shining waters is having a viral moment. You’ve probably heard Blue Rodeo fans belting out “Right in the middle of Lake Ontario” as the band performed It Hasn’t Hit Me Yet on Toronto’s waterfront. You also may have caught the sly reference to our lake in a new release from American protest singer Jesse Welles, The Nerd Reich, which borrows its title from Gil Duran’s bestselling expose of fascism in Silicon Valley. Welles, 33, is the Grammy-nominated singer of Red and Join ICE. The pr
Baranyai: Judging women by appearance persists (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Agnes Macphail stepped into the public eye in 1921 as Canada’s first female Member of Parliament. She was a progressive with big ideas and a sharp wit. In the press, she was alternately berated for frequently wearing the same serviceable blue dress, or skewered for trying on something fashionable. Things on that score haven’t gotten a whole lot easier for women in politics (remember “Climate Barbie”?), nor in any other field, for that matter. So it resonated this week, when Danish prime minister
Baranyai: Jamaica-gate turns spotlight on Tory spying (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Opposition researchers look for flecks of gold at the bottom of a swirling pan of silt. They’re prospectors looking to take down other people’s prospects. It’s not glamorous work. They agitate the pan, flush out the muck and see what sticks. Surely every oppo researcher has a dream. Chances are, it looks something like that photo of U.S. Senator Ted Cruz pulling his suitcase through the Cancun airport, after hightailing it out of Texas during a blizzard that left millions of his constituents wit
Baranyai: Will the return of measles be COVID-19's enduring legacy? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After so many lives lost and lessons learned, wouldn’t it be tragic if the most enduring legacy of COVID-19 turned out to be measles? Not well-resourced hospitals and long-term care homes. Not better wages for the unsung heroes who risked contagion to ring up our groceries. Not support for the arts that sustained us through grief and uncertainty. There are any number of ways we could have distilled our pandemic experiences into something lasting and positive. At least, after the horrors of venti
