The Hidden Hand book tour begins
Here I am at the mighty AM640 with the legendary Ben Mulroney - who generously gave me 45 minutes of airtime to talk about the new book. We probably could've talked for a lot more than that. Grateful for all the interest in the book so soon. Here we go!

Read this fucking column, fuck.
Fuddle-duddle. If you are Canadian, and of a certain vintage, you know what that refers to: the F-word. F**k. It’s been around for a while, that word.

Newtonian law and Trump: he's losing
Newton's third law is this: for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. That’s physics. It’s politics, too. In the Trump era, on just about every front, Sir Isaac’s principle applied. At the outset of Trump II, however, it didn’t.
