Price gouging? Not with these cookies Supermarkets are using many excuses as to why food prices are rising. We have heard them all. Here is an interesting case.

Geimer’s dangerously naïve admonition to try negotiations with Russia rather than supplying better weapons, I was still disappointed in the response from Orest Zakydalsky, senior policy adviser for the Ukrainian Canadian Congress.

Throwing more money at hospitals will not change what is happening.

The gravity of this situation eclipses all other celestial concerns.
