Lee and me in London, December 2025 I met Lee G. Hill in the first week I was at St. Bonaventure Junior High School in Calgary. That was 50 years ago. We became friends right away - along with Dan Nearing and Pierre Schenk and Pat O'Heran and Bill Corcoran and others - because we liked a lot of the same things. Beatles, movies, counterculture stuff. We were misfits, I guess. We started something called the Non-Conformist News Agency, which we used as vehicle to satirize every

I've been writing about racism and bigotry for 40 years. I've written half a dozen books and hundreds of speeches and columns about the subject. I've been lucky enough to win awards for my work. So, when a white man accuses minorities of being "barbaric," my opinion is that he is a racist and a bigot. And he should never be allowed to hold public office. #topoli

Front page, as it were, in the Times of Israel! Quote: "Shortly after the Hamas atrocities of October 7, 2023, Warren Kinsella began noticing what he considered the fingerprints of a professional propaganda campaign. A Canadian political strategist who has worked for decades in war rooms advising prime ministers and political campaigns in Canada, the United States and Israel, Kinsella makes that case in his new book, “The Hidden Hand: The Information War and the Rise of Antis

Our Prime Ministerial frequent flyer was on the road again, this week. One wonders if he leafed through Dr. Martin Luther King’s first book on the plane. There’s a memorable passage in it: “He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting is really cooperating with it.” As such, the places Mark Carney visits are interesting. At the NATO Summit, Mark Carney spent time with Turkey’s President, Recep

...hopefully I did better than the guy who previously was on that stage. More than 200 people there, with more on a waiting list. Every copy of The Hidden Hand sold, and more copies pre-sold! Here's a video of my talk. Let me know your thoughts.

Look: bad people do bad things. True in politics, true in real life. In politics, being bad or doing bad things isn’t always fatal. Bad people sometimes win. Donald Trump, Richard Nixon et al. It happens. But people who are good - or who claim to be good - shrugging about a bad person doing bad things in politics? That shouldn’t happen. Justin Trudeau, for example. He wore racist blackface and was alleged by a woman to have groped her. He hid both until they leaked out. For m

Today is her birthday. She led a long and good life, yes, and I believe – per my faith – she is with my Dad now, the love of her life. Yes. But I still so miss her, miss them, every single day. People will tell you it gets easier, with the passage of time. But they’re not telling you the truth. It mostly doesn’t. She was an artist and a creator and the best mother you could possibly imagine. As Moms go, she was without equal. Her absence leaves a hole in the sky and in every

Canada and America both had birthdays this week. Theirs was more consequential. Not, however, in the way that birthdays are supposed to be: not with lots of joy and singing and celebrations of achievement. America alights in its 250th year with none of that, really. No discernible joy, no proper celebrations, no singing by anyone you would ever want to hear. Uncharitable as it may sound, America slides into its 250th year like a dead and decomposing whale on a remote beach s
