I was wondering what the connection of this Greek MEP's speech was to Carney's appearance at the EU Parliament and his speech. How did the PM's appearance "go south"? Ms. Latinopoulou certainly does not hold back on her personal attack against Ms. von der Leyen or her opinion of EU policies...

I don't know what you are fixing there. If the NDP had to rely on the personal popularity of Naheed Nenshi or even admiration for his leadership skills, then the win in the Calgary Shaw byelection might not have turned out as it did. Nenshi was able to gain his first political win (as Mayor of...

". . . pardon brokers Jack Burkman and Jacob Wohl . . ." Pardon broker? Is that a career field now? What sort of education and experience do you need for that job? I suppose previous involvement with Attorneys General would be helpful...

Don't judge him harshly. Once family friends like Jeffrey Epstein are no longer available for your private island needs, who are you going to turn to.

The Orange and the Green . . . In the province that may be most associated with Irish (at least in our own minds), the celebration recognition of St Patrick's Day and King Billy's Birthday Orangeman's Day may be the last holdout of the separation of Catholics and Protestants. While those two...

Maybe because the "Anglo-American Telegraph Company" made a business case that it was less costly to lay the expensive cable between the closest two land points in Europe and North America, especially since they took over the assets of the "New York, Newfoundland and London Telegraph Company"...

FTFY . . . It's those damned Scandinavians, they're all alike.

I once thought that I had some understanding of Germans' political thinking, however that was over thirty years ago when my daily news consumption (both TV and print) included local German language outlets (plus of course regular INTSUMs). But, back then, those demographic variables would have...
