Historians will look back and say we reached the point of no return when we started making remote control “page-turners” for our e-books.

Cropped Amazon product page for a two-piece Bluetooth page-turning remote fitted to a Kindle.

A good idea when it was Harper’s, but bad idea when it’s Trudeau’s? “Conservatives’ reaction to news of the [Brookfield] proposal was troubling, if unsurprising. They said nothing about the idea itself. It’s fair to ask whether what they really see is an opportunity to smear a potential rival.”

In case you worried they may have principles. “The Conservative position, as near as anyone can make it out – that climate change should be fought, if at all, not by harnessing the power of the free market, but by central planning, a mix of command-and-control regulation and government subsidy”

The Liberals are being scolded for proposing a superior policy that was hard to explain. The Conservatives are being congratulated for shamelessly exploiting popular confusion

“when the ICC issued warrants against officials of other non-ICC member states, like Putin and al-Bashir, the U.S. celebrated and urged cooperation Washington’s message to the world is that it loves the ICC when it prosecutes America’s enemies and hates the court when it prosecutes its friends.”

The United States tends to hail the ICC when it prosecutes American enemies, but assails the court when it goes after U.S. allies.
