A few decades ago when I was interviewing candidates for an articling job in my law office, I met a young woman who had almost no arms, only small hands at the ends of severely shortened upper limbs.

FILDEBRANDT: It’s ‘Open For Summer’™ to ‘put your mask back on’ in two months

“It’s Groundhog Day in Alberta. The UCP cabinet pulled Premier Jason Kenney out of his federal election hiding to see if he sees his Shandro. If he does, it will be 4 more months of forced-masking, social distancing orders, and limitations on most enjoyable human activities.”

It's Groundhog Day in Alberta. The UCP cabinet pulled Premier Jason Kenney out of his federal election hiding to see if he sees his Shandro. If he does, it will be 4 more months of forced-masking, social distancing orders, and limitations on most enjoyable human activities. If the premier didn't see his Shadro, his pledge that "we’re not just open for summer, but open for good" would st

“For those keeping track, that’s three debates held in French, and only one held in English, despite only one out of every four Canadians speaking French.”

On Sunday, the French language version of CBC, Radio-Canada, conducted back-to-back video interviews with each of the federal party leaders. This will be followed tonight by another series of back-to-back video interviews, again in French, on TVA. These w

FILDEBRANDT: Where did all the pro-choicers go?

“If the pro-choicers wish to retain their positive moniker – rather than be known simply as pro-abortion – then they might consider applying their creed to other choices that people wish to make with their own body.”

"My body, my choice!" is probably the most well recognized refrain of the pro-choice in abortion movement. It's been their keystone slogan since at least the 1960s. It's a compelling argument, if based on principle. It appeals not just to those who want access to abortions, but to those who support the sovereignty of the individual. It is a slogan based upon the premise that the state has no

No Media Bailouts

The fourth estate is critical to a functioning democracy in holding the government to account. An objective media can't maintain editorial integrity when it accepts money from a government we expect it to be critical of.

We the undersigned call on the Canadian government to immediately cease all payouts to media companies.
