Lorne Gunter: Riding an anti-Trump bounce, expect a Mark Carney Liberal leadership victory There’s no advantage for the Liberals to wait. Carney is currently enjoying an anti-Trump bounce. And as Carney’s record of fibs and flubs during the leadership campaign has shown, the longer he waits, the more likely he will implode

Lorne Gunter: Edmonton council throwing good money after bad Here’s an idea for city council: Council’s executive committee voted Wednesday to recommend to the entire council that they extend the Downtown community revitalization levy (CRL) by a further 10 years to keep all that fabulous revitalization momentum going. (I’m being facetious.)

Lorne Gunter: Does the PM understand the financial strain of Canadians? Don't count on it Can you guess how much Prime Minister Justin Trudeau bills Canadians every year for groceries at his home at Rideau Cottage in Ottawa? And you don’t have to include what it costs when he’s having an official dinner for the Sultan of Brunei or the Prime Minister of Norway. State dinners are covered by taxpayers by custom.
