Commentary It has been amusing, in a grisly sort of way, to witness the adulation heaped upon Yevgeny Prigozhin, former violent felon, and founder of the paramilitary group PMC Wagner (“PMC” stands for “Private Military Company”). For many years, Prigozhin had been pals with the Russian dictator Vladimir Putin. The two both hail from St….
Gen Z Has Been Failed by the Education System
Commentary Gen Z is “rotting” away, according to a recent New York Post piece. Millions of young people now spend inordinate amounts of time “bed rotting,” lounging about for extended periods of time, eating food, watching Netflix, and playing video games. But this “rotting” must be viewed through a broader lens. Gen Zers are struggling,…
Money-Supply Slump Spells Private-Sector Recession
Commentary Allow me to explain why we have not seen a recession yet, despite the collapse in base money supply. We are witnessing the stealth nationalization of the economy. What does this mean? The entire burden of the monetary collapse and rate hikes is falling on the shoulders of families and small businesses, while large…
Companies Should Focus on Their Products, Not Preach ESG to the Public
Commentary During the last couple of years, an increasing number of companies have subscribed to the environmental, social and governance (ESG) framework, promising to adhere to, and promote, the goals of corporate social responsibility and sustainable business strategies. These ESG-oriented companies embrace non-financial accountability indicators to assess the implementation of systems and processes that manage…
The Power of Symbols
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…

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. Analysts at SOCi, Inc., a U.S. marketing platform, recently published a report outlining the many ways in which retailers are “ghosting” customers, and how this practice is costing the country…

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…
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…
