The country sits on the edge of its seat, obsessed with the question: Wither Pierre Poilievre? Except, of course, it isn’t. I ruined most of 2024 by writing a book about him, and my own interest is, to be kind, in stasis. One week, the book was second on the list of bestselling Canadian non-fiction titles. Several weeks later, it wasn’t a bestseller at all. Makes sense to me.

R ichard lives in a pup tent in downtown Ottawa, next to the Bank of Canada and about a block from the temporary home of the House of Commons. He’s a thin, tough man in his sixties. Or he could be in his fifties. When you’ve worked outside for years as a roofer and then end up on the street, your face has seen a lot of sun. Carrying a heavy load of trauma and anxiety is also a great way to look older than you are. Richard gets by on $789 a month from the Ontario Disability Support Program.

How are we going to miss him if he will never leave? I’m talking about Donald Trump. Everyone’s writing about him. I might as well. Actually, no. I’m writing about the media, and the weird dance that they’ve been doing for years. It started in the 1970s, in New York, where Trump became a local celeb by buying up real estate and being the kind of rich swine that were a big deal when the city was broke. He kept coming back like herpes, anytime he could: Home Alone 2, Saturday Night Live, The Apprentice.

Trump calls for Iran's "unconditional surrender". Functioning regimes do not negotiate their own destruction. The Germans did not agree to unconditional surrender until Hitler was dead and the Soviet flag flew over the Reichstag ruins.
BREAKING: Tucker Carlson just destroyed Ted Cruz over his lack of knowledge about Iran, while seemingly wanting to attack them. The Republican Party is self-destructing https://t.co/sBkbdFKXgF
