Justin Ling: For four years, Ukraine has held back a wannabe emperor while innovating on defence. Canada should take notes It’s easy for Canadians to despair over an unjust war. Despair is a luxury afforded by distance, something Ukraine sorely lacks.

Being exhausted by a war that other's are fighting is a luxury of distance. And Ukraine's obsessive drive to innovative ought to give us plenty of reason to hope.

Record snowfall demands patience for sure, but it’s been over a week and most lanes are totally impassable. How has this been missed? @mayoroliviachow.ca @cycletoronto.bsky.social

Opinion | The Great Unraveling Has Begun

"If states fail to act together to preserve the prohibition on the use of force...the toll will be registered in many more lives lost in conflicts that no longer have any guardrails to stop them."

I believe in international law.

Venezuela: The Precedents And America: The Future

Trump is weak at home, and he can be stopped – so long as the domestic political logic of foreign intervention is recognized and turned against him. This act of war is about regime change in the United States. It only succeeds if Americans allow it to do so.

This holiday season, give the gift of nightmares: the fearful Eastern European folklore of The Bone Mother; the unsettling blend of queer history, memoir and monstrosity in RED X; and the epistolary origin story of Mrs. Lovett, The Butcher’s Daughter, co-written with @corinneleighclark.bsky.social
