I know I should keep myself from adding to April Fools Day references made to connect the upcoming
April 1st Carbon Tax hike as foolish and Trudeau taking Canadians as fools. I’ve always believed that the best and worst thing about democracy is that people get what they deserve. So I believe Star Wars Obi-Wan said it best, “Who's the more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows him?”

Trust but verify. News media needs to regain the former, so it can develop a new business model providing the latter.
World events, our politics and social media are all doing their part to drive people apart. Time to discuss what are the ties that bind. If you find yourself disagreeing with fellow citizens - perhaps it's time you moved beyond domestic issues and see if you can find common ground on more international values, like democracy, rule of law, freedom of expression, even humanity to name a few.

I would be less agreeable to defunding the CBC, if it got back to its mandate and started telling our stories. Our own Canadian University athletes are one group that deserves some attention from the public broadcaster. The venues, cast and storylines are all ready to go.
