Do you want to understand Donald Trump, past, present, and future? Read this.

(Originally published February 19, 2017)  Ten years ago New York real estate developer Donald Trump wrote a book called 'Trump. Think Big and Kick Ass'. Today he's President of the United States of America Donald Trump. And the line of people with sore asses includes Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, the entire Democratic Party, the Republican Party establishment, and pretty much most of the news media.  They should have read his book.

Overwhelmed nurses in open revolt at union's coziness with the NDP gov’t

Eight months, one budget and one contract later, Wab Kinew is staring at his worst nightmare---a nurses strike. Nurses at Manitoba's largest hospital, the Health Sciences Centre, have rejected the labour contract the new NDP government presented to them this month.

It might have worked in the Sixties, but today's readers are too savvy to the tricks of biased journalists to overlook the obvious. The FP's attempt to undermine the campaigns of these two candidates is such a classic example of fake news it should be studied in legitimate journalism classes as a how-not-to produce a story. The headline reads: 'School trustee candidates ‘parental rights’ campaign literature raises concerns'. Note the quotation marks around the words parental rights. That is supposed to delegitimize the term by isolating the words and indicating there's something suspicious about the users. They wouldn't use quotation marks if the
