I post non-expert opinions, with emotions & sarcasm, on #cdnpoli & #ONpoli. I also share my story of hope & healing from myself & a broken healthcare system.

Dear @kinsellawarren
You’re an X-@liberal_party aide who takes money to give political advice. You write books. Good on ya.
But you don’t get to call yourself a #journalist and trash talk somebody who’s spent 43 years fighting to keep the industry alive.
Get off my lawn.

Dental plan
😂
Every time that scene from the Last Exit to Springfield episode plays in my head when I read about the Canadian Dental Plan. With that said, ‘Smithers, I'm beginning to think that the 🇨🇦Feds is not the brilliant tactician I thought they were.”
Get the government boot off Canada’s neck.
You cannot tax fuel, punish farmers, regulate processors, drive up transportation costs, bury producers in paperwork, and then act shocked when food costs more.
Canada already grows food. The problem is not a lack of slogans, strategies, panels, or photo ops. The problem is a government that keeps making it more expensive to produce, move, process, and sell the food Canadians need.
“More control” is exactly the problem.
Less tax. Less red tape. Less Ottawa. More production. More competition. Lower costs.
I was recently asked how I'm able to share information that many Canadians never hear about—stories that often receive little or no media coverage.
The answer is simple: people trust us with information.
Over the years, I've been fortunate to earn the confidence of individuals who have firsthand knowledge of what's really happening behind the scenes. Many of them take significant personal and professional risks by speaking out. Some could jeopardize their careers, their businesses, or their reputations. They trust us to protect their identities while helping Canadians better understand issues that may affect them directly.
Years ago, these same people could often turn to the media to tell their stories and contribute to a more informed public debate. Today, that has become far more difficult. Many feel their perspectives are unwelcome unless they align with prevailing narratives. Whether one agrees with that assessment or not, it is a reality frequently expressed by those who contact me.
Academia faces similar challenges. In my experience, many scholars are reluctant to engage publicly on controversial issues. Some prefer to remain silent, others avoid certain topics altogether, and some have simply grown tired of the hostility and professional risks that can come with expressing unpopular views. The result is fewer voices participating in important public conversations.
That is why I continue to do what I do.
A healthy democracy depends on citizens having access to information, competing viewpoints, and open debate. Canadians deserve to hear the full story—not just the parts that are convenient or politically acceptable.
I am grateful for the people who continue to share information with us, and for the media organizations that still provide space for independent voices, including Postmedia and Les Affaires.
I am also deeply thankful to my friend and co-host, Michael LeBlanc. The success of The Food Professor Podcast would not have been possible without his insight, professionalism, curiosity, and unwavering commitment to asking important questions. What began as an idea has grown into one of Canada's most listened-to management podcasts, and I am privileged to share that journey with him every week.
The work is becoming more challenging, but it remains worthwhile.
A free pen is far mightier than censorship. That belief is at the heart of everything I do.
BREAKING: U.S. dairy industry argues Canada is using its supply-managed system to generate surplus dairy proteins and exporting them through product categories not explicitly capped under CUSMA, want that addressed during the next trade review.
This will get ugly.
Newly released government records related to the Chinese-owned dairy plant in Kingston, Ontario, raise important questions that have so far attracted remarkably little public attention.

Canadians say airlines refuse to take responsibility after luggage tag switching allegedly led to them being falsely accused of drug trafficking overseas.
Some spent days or weeks in foreign jails.
Others were left with tens of thousands in legal bills.
This is outrageous!
