Commentary The Australian federal government is proceeding with plans to ban Nazi symbols. That’s fair enough, I suppose, if the ban is confined to just two images—the swastika and the double lightning bolt SS. Such a prohibition might be unwelcome news to a few extremist motorcycle groups, but most of us share a reasoned detestation…

Commentary The Australian federal government is proceeding with plans to ban Nazi symbols.

Growing China-Middle East Economic Ties Cannot be Ignored
Commentary The fireworks were flying during the recent China and Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) summit in Riyadh. Several high profile business deals were announced between the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in Beijing and the GCC—traditionally and until recently a strong ally of the United States—that could help shape the landscape of international investments in the…
When Intel Services Go Public, You Know It’s Serious
Commentary I don’t know how many times I have heard Canadians say that CSIS stands for the “Canadian Secret Intelligence Service.” It does not. The first “s” stand for “security,” and a security intelligence service is different than a foreign intelligence one, although in some countries the mandates overlap (think CIA). Similarly, many are convinced…
How the Internet Has Encouraged Bad Behavior—Especially in Females
Commentary “Ghosting,” the practice of ending a relationship suddenly, and without any explanation, cutting off all forms of communication with another person, is very costly.

Commentary Living on the streets is a crime. A violation of law. To force citizens to react, or worse, not react to the plight of their fellow man, and pretend not to notice, ultimately may force everyone to leave. This includes those born and raised in San Francisco, and this author. It’s not okay for…

Commentary Despite a number of structural disadvantages, India will likely rival China in terms of global power.

India has already surpassed China in population and is hoping to eclipse…
Michael Zwaagstra: Ideology Trumps Merit in Toronto Schools
Commentary As the old saying goes, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Poor grammar notwithstanding, this is in fact very good advice. You shouldn’t take apart your car’s engine, for example, when things are running smoothly. It’s a surefire way to create problems where none had previously existed. Too bad the administrators and trustees…
Cory Morgan: The Battle Created by Bill C-18 Is Pointless and Destructive, and Didn’t Need to Happen
Commentary Now that Canada’s Bill C-18 has made its way through Parliament and has received royal assent, the battle of wills between the government and social media platforms begins in earnest. The regulations packed into C-18 amount to little more than a shakedown of social media platforms on behalf of financially failing legacy media outlets….
The Russia-Ukraine War and Why Tactical Obsession Is a Mental Illness
Commentary Wars beget such anxiety that those not involved in the fight for survival at the front engage in endless emotional torment and speculation. This is a tactical, individual reaction within a viral environment, so as individual anxiety achieves mass adoption, it acquires strategic impact. And today, that mass adoption is guaranteed by the still…
