While Mark Carney takes a few days to think about running for the position of a political leader, why would he risk connecting with the Liberals that way and risk losing his reputation and our view of his integrity? He is a smart person, we have better jobs for him.

(Perhaps Carney believes he can change the fortunes of the Liberals)

GOULD’S GOT IT

My choice for new Liberal leader and prime minister is Karina Gould. She is well experienced, well-educated and at 37, she would be the youngest prime minister. When I met her, I told her, and she was genuinely touched by my faith and believing in her, and she will make a great PM. It is time for a long-term female PM, and she will connect with the new generation of would-be politicians.

(Gould has about as much of a chance of being PM as the Liberals do winning the next election)

BORDER PROBLEMS

Donald Trump is worried about our borders, saying many illegal immigrants come through to the U.S.A. from Canada. Hmm! Just a thought here, Trumpster. What is that saying about your own border patrol? Why are they allowed in? Open your eyes, the problem is split 50/50. The U.S. is just as much at fault. Canada, the 51st state? Yeah, no thank you very much.

(It will be one of Trump’s first acts as president is to secure their border)

GRUMPY OLD MAN

On Jan. 2 my dad, Willy Adamson, turned 90. You may know him as The Toronto Sun newspaper grumpy old man. He was a regular in the Letters to the Editor. He may have slowed down some, but he still has the wherewithal to let his opinions on a myriad of topics be known. Cheers to my dad who never cow-towed to the powers that be. You make me proud, dad, even as I shake my head in wonder.

(Never shy with a sharp opinion. Happy Birthday, Willy)
