Canada's loudest Conservative Bull Horn is not a human being. It's a paper - The National Post. They are warning Conservatives Nationally not to do what Manitoba Progressive Conservatives did - not to demolish themselves with dumb messages that make conservatives ashamed of their party, reluctant to support them, prompting many to stay at home or vote for someone else.

They blame Russia for Donald Trump’s election and they’ll bleed Ukraine dry for payback." My respon...

Pierre Poilievre is feeding new rubes from the same old bag. That's the impression I get reading Thomas Mulcair's comment for CTV.

Interest rates will likely be paused by the Bank of Canada. That's the Bay Street Wisdom after the latest monthly numbers showing Canadian economic activity contracting. I said contracting.

But it will likely stand down on the idea of pushing interests rates up. It might even tell us that the interest rate increases have indeed put the brakes...
