Hollywood legend Jon Voight is in no doubt former President Donald Trump must be returned to the White House in 2024 to “overrule the barbaric animals destroying our country.”
He made his declaration by bookending it with the observation Israel is also in grave danger and both countries must safeguard their futures through backing Trump because the alternatives do not bear thinking about.
The political trajectory of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau from 2015 to 2024 can best be summed up as his transformation from a Teflon PM to a Velcro one.
In a town typically light on fashion and heavy on partisan friction, what one high-profile figure wore to a swanky White House affair has ignited a ferocious debate seemingly just as polarizing as politics in Washington.

Most Canadians in March reported feeling angry or pessimistic towards the federal government than at any point in the last six years, according to a survey by Nanos Research(opens in a new tab).

Like most Americans, I always tended to believe Canada was our more sensible, if less intense, neighbour. It was a country that respected liberal traditions derived originally from England, embracing values such as free speech and assembly along with tolerance for opposing views.
This is no longer the case. As authoritarian regimes are expanding all around the world, notes Freedom House, Canada and other western nations seem to be tilting in that awful direction. Some Canadians may fear the future of democracy under a new Donald Trump administration in the United States, but they would do well to look closer to home.
