Two panel Simpsons meme... Principal Skinner looking at a broken window... Top panel shows Skinner pondering with text reading, "Were we wrong to run an obnoxious 'anti-woke' MAGA-style alt-right troll against an Oxford-trained economist and former governor of two central banks?" Panel two shows Skinner, now standing resolute, with text reading, "No. It's the voters who are out of touch."

One thing that frustrates me about Canadian politics is the insistence on comparing the Conservative Party of Canada to the Progressive Conservatives. They are not the same party, but people often forget that (or are willingly deceived). We as historians are partly to blame for that.

Today would have been Mom's birthday. This photo was taken by my friend Brad a few days after she turned 70. I love the pic!
