So sad to hear the news of the passing of a great Montreal journalist and former colleague Dennis Trudeau -- he represented the best of public broadcasting: inquisitive, curious, a tough interviewer. I'll be on CBC's @cbcasithappens tonight as part of their tribute to him.

democracy just died in darkness. @PostBaron quite rightly slams the @washingtonpost for not having the courage to stand up for democracy.

This is cowardice, with democracy as its casualty. @realdonaldtrump will see this as an invitation to further intimidate owner @jeffbezos (and others). Disturbing spinelessness at an institution famed for courage.

'AMERICA'S MONSTER" A must-read from the @nytimes if you want to know why the West "lost" the war in Afghanistan. In our TVO documentary, "Ghosts of Afghanistan," we briefly featured this warlord who was Canada's monster too in Kandahar https://t.co/GsytE0MvFU
