Finding Opportunity in the College Crisis

Law & Liberty
March 17, 2024
Read The Full Story

Bemoaning the woeful state of public higher education only goes so far, write Frederick M. Hess and Michael Q. McShane in Law & Liberty. Rather than just complaining, the authors see a welcome opportunity to return colleges to their original purpose of educating students by reining in DEI mandates, busting hidden cartels and encouraging real competition.

The War on Alcohol Moves South

Pressure is mounting on the U.S. government to redefine the safe level of alcohol consumption down to zero, reports Christopher Snowdon in The Spectator – and the push is being driven by some of the same researchers who’ve been making life miserable for Canadian social drinkers. As in Canada, they seek to discredit the view that moderate drinking contributes to cardio-vascular health by challenging the famous “J-Curve” which, backed by decades of science, demonstrates that social drinkers are likely to live longer than teetotallers.

Not That Different After All

Martin Gurri in the New York Post notes the strange campaign by the American left to block virtually all attempts to root out government waste and fraud, cut needless spending or make government operate more efficiently. Not only have American governments at all levels deteriorated into “Vaudevillian failures”, writes Gurri, but a significant proportion of his fellow citizens appear dedicated to keeping the “beached whale” just where it is. It seems Americans and Canadians are not that different after all.

The Mercurial vs. the Inscrutable

Donald Trump’s apparent climb-down from his 245 percent tariffs on Chinese imports has critics gleefully proclaiming his humiliation at the hands of China’s Xi Jinping. Not so fast, writes Henry Gao in Tablet. China, Gao argues, needs the U.S. far more than vice-versa, and the Communist regime’s relentless propaganda merely masks worsening structural economic weaknesses that would make a protracted trade war all-but unendurable.

Residential School Denialist – “Dad” for Short

The CBC et al have courteously minimized Mark Carney’s father Robert’s long career as an Indian day school principal and superintendent of native schooling programs – presumably to help the Liberal Leader more easily sluff off this “problematic” family history. At PJ Media, David Solway notes the elder Carney’s role was far greater than generally reported – as was his unwavering belief in the rightness of what he was doing – and that this should actually be celebrated.
