Thurs., March 12: NDP MP Lori Idlout crossing to the Liberals isn’t for the betterment of her constituents, it is self-serving, which floor crossing usually is. The only choice should be for them to let voters decide.

Wed., March 11: While it is expected the Liberals will take the two Toronto and one Montreal riding next month, it doesn’t change the fact the west feels alienated, separation talk continues and we aren’t yet a United Canada. All issues the Prime Minister will face with or without a majority.

Mon., March 9: A soon-to-be learner drive in Sarah Mills’s house is pause for thought about the bad habits drivers have and what they are being taught.
