It strikes me that I've been covering Parliament Hill for roughly 13 years and can recall precisely one Question Period that was worth watching.

A 15-minute city conspiracy theorist who lives in *Somerset* ward is the wildest thing. Like a flat-Earther astronaut. Just look outside your door! That’s the whole idea! The entire thing!

Canadians encountering EU politics for the first time: "So the French and Germans oppose any move they perceive as von der Leyen empire building?" "Yeah, but only after spending five days prior leaking anonymous, confusing details to any media outlet that will listen"

Suggesting social media is "talking to your friends" is silly. That's a silly thing to say!

Listening to Pierre Poilievre's pre-caucus retreat press conference, it's like he's giving his April 2025 election pitch. It's ... astonishing. Barely a nod to the current political conversation, and only to poke at Carney for going to Europe.

I know what he's saying but extremely funny to say this about a country that was created as "British North America", didn't have its own foreign policy until the 1930s, judicial supremacy rested in London until after WWII, and couldn't amend its own constitution into my lifetime.

I've seen everyone sharing that US Dialect Quiz so I decided to make my own, much crappier, CANADIAN DIALECT QUIZ to guess where in Canada you're from

A flow chart I have created with multiple questions and the answers determine where you're from.

Question 1 is do you call it a hydro bill (which then branches down to ON, QC, BC, MB) or an electric bill (which then branches down to SK, AB, NS, NB, PEI, NL)

Question 2 is do you call it a cabin (BC, MB, AB, SK) cottage (ON and atlantic) camp (northern Ontario) chalet (QC) or bungalow (Cape Breton)

To delineate BC from MB: do you call it dinner or supper

To delineate southern Ontario rural or big city: have you heard of a stag & doe

To delineate SK from AB: do you call a hoodie a bunnyhug

And finally to delineate NL from the other atlantic provinces: whaddayat? (Correct answer: dis is it b'y)
