The Last Switch
Since 1950 nuclear weapons have crashed, burned, fallen and sunk, and none has gone off. Read how close each came. The record starts over Canada, and ends with three things Canada can do this year.
Read it →The Notice Is Free

Read it →The Vertical Squeeze
The order of government closest to you has the most responsibility and the least revenue. The imbalance, costed.
Read it →I Campaigned Against This Man
A Conservative campaigner did the homework and changed his mind. Not a conversion — an argument for looking instead of yelling.
