Back in January, I wrote that the Liberal Party faced a serious problem in the aftermath of Stephane Dion's disastrous leadership coup mounted by Michael Ignatieff to take over the leadership of the Liberal Party without a vote. The problem was the fury of Canada's left , both within the Liberal Party and those outside of it, which had come so tantalizingly close to achieving power, only to see it...

Janine Krieber, the wife of former Liberal leader Stéphane Dion, one of Canada’s dimmest light bulbs and a lifelong admirer of all things Marxist, has attacked the Liberal Party, saying that it’s headed “for the trashcan of history”. This is true, of course, but her comments reveal a lot of troubling aspects. First, Krieber’s background is Austrian, or to be more...

John Ibbitson says Liberals don’t stand for anything. Rubbish. The Liberal Party has careful and thoughtful policies on all the issues facing Canadians today. What’s more, the Liberal Party is holding a major thinkers conference in January that will call on the best Canadian minds, regardless of Party affiliation, to focus on how Canada can be made better for the long term. It is true that...

Who says the Tories can’t do ethno-politics? Throughout the Chrétien and Martin years, the Liberals had a lock on urban ethnic constituencies. Sikhs, Jews, Tamils, Somalians, Ukrainians, Arabs: The Liberal Party’s urban machines were staffed by a tightly corralled rainbow coalition recruited and programmed at mosques, temples and community centres. On election day, the Tories and...

This is what Janine Krieber got right 1) Igantieff has been an unmediated disaster. 2) The rot goes well beyond Ignatieff. 3) Paul Martin was a cancer. Now this is what she got wrong. 1) Love is blind. It is obvious to all but the two of them that Stephen Dion does not have the ability to rebuild the party. His English is not good enough. He never had the support of the caucus or even the party base....

The Prime Minister's relations (or lack thereof) with the Ottawa press gallery has once again got the gallery worked up. The Toronto Star got all exercised after Mr. Harper gave a speech on Saturday extolling press freedom, then failed to take questions from reporters. (Note to Star: "Freedom of the press" isn't synonymous with having regular press conferences with the prime minister. Freedom...

Image from BBC News. A study of pollen in mammoth and other megafaunal dung offers more evidence for the climate-versus-overkill debate. Frankly, I wonder why anyone is talking about asteroids at this point. Was that the reporter's confusion? "Overkill" refers to the theory that the arrival of humans—in this case, in North America—led to a fairly rapid extinction of big, slow...

Stephane Dion must be one proud fella today. His wife, who obviously wears the pants in the house lost her mind on Friday and posted a facebook attack on Michael Ignatieff. Granted, Ignatieff is a class "A" stooge in his own right, but Dion's wife, who goes by the name Janine Krieber wrote a scathing piece on Ignatieff's underhanded means of grabbing control of the party, she criticized...

1. I believe the Liberal Party of Canada is destined to become a miserable component of ephemeral coalitions, like the liberal parties in Europe, because it refused to submerge its identity in an ephemeral coalition, the way the liberal parties in Europe did. 2. Our party was inherently doomed from the moment Mr. Martin ousted Mr. [...]
