At the beginning of the Trump presidency in 2017, one of his first actions was to appoint Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court. Since then, Gorsuch has been a reliable conservative member of the court, but, as the founders hoped, the judiciary remains an independent branch of government.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio crashed the annual Munich Security Conference on Valentine’s Day, delivering a speech not much different in content from Vice President J.D. Vance’s last year, but significantly distinct in tone. Rubio, once again, demonstrated the skills required to oversee a foreign policy at odds with its major allies. He invited […]
On a recent edition of Mark Halperin’s Next Up podcast, the host delivered a critique of how U.S. President Donald Trump has outsmarted, circumvented, and bamboozled the dominant media over the past decade.

For the past few days, this author has been attending the Conservative Party of Canada’s Leadership Review and Policy Convention in beautiful Calgary, Alberta. In a reversal of the usual situation, those of us from Ontario left a very cold and snowy location to bask in relative warmth – temperatures well above zero! – and […]
On the heels of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Davos stem-winder, U.S. President Donald Trump has hit back hard at the prime minister’s assertions and accusations. Trying to figure out where each man stands on Canada-U.S. relations, NATO’s relevance, and continued economic cooperation leaves geopolitical analysts exhausted, never mind the average citizen.
