Here is a bizarre headline from the National Post. How can a closer race benefit the party that previously had a huge lead? If the lead meant anything, then that was, by definition, the best situation, in spite of 'complacency'. Now that the lead has shrunk, they are worse off.

Has the 'Great One' said a peep on the economic war his beloved president declared on his birthplace? Not so far. I hope Ovechkin breaks all your records you treasonous twit.

When will a Canadian opinion writer write a column on how stupid Smith and Moe are for trying to deprive Canada of an important strategic option in a tariff war? Or how they are both scheming to ensure tariffs exclude oil and gas?

Prediction for the English language leaders debate in the upcoming Canadian Federal election: someone will ask Poilievre if he supports $ for $ tariffs. He will avoid answering the question, blame Trudeau, and promise that he will negotiate a better deal with the Americans.

Imposing 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico are treaty violations, and declarations of economic war. Between the jokes on late night and erudite editorials on the NYT and WaPo, it would be nice if more Americans acknowledged just how genuinely serious this is.
