I would love to stop talking about office mandates but for that it would help if people stopped being stupid about it. If you can’t trust your people to be productive unsupervised, you need new people, not mandatory office presence. ottawacitizen.com/opinion/otta...

This is a metaphor for something.

I can't wait for the Supreme Court to strike down the stupid Bill 21 and force the Quebec government to rewrite it properly -- which shouldn't even be that hard. State secularism is worth fighting for the right way. www.brigittepellerin.com/p/bill-21-is...

Maybe the Kimmel kerfuffle is the perfect excuse to scrap broadcast licenses altogether and let people compete for viewers in a truly free market. Yes, I'm radical like that. www.brigittepellerin.com/p/why-do-we-...

So far Mark Carney is retaining his support but if he wants to keep it he’s going to have to show he understands what people want. Standing up to Trump is no longer issue #1. Time for the prime minister to show us he can pivot. www.brigittepellerin.com/p/the-left-i...
