I think PP has painted himself into a corner.
A full 25% of Conservatives have a favourable view of Trump (Nov. ‘25 Research Co. poll) so he feels he can’t cut them loose. (At his January acceptance speech he made zero references to Trump). At the same time overall public opinion in Canada has hardened significantly against Trump. So PP is caught squarely in the middle.
It doesn’t help that he has failed to build alliances.
I hadn’t even considered the possibility of JJ making a leadership bid and methinks he would make the party unelectable. Meanwhile Ford is waiting in the wings and would likely be more acceptable as party leader.

Conservatives may be wishing they hadn’t been so eager to reconfirm Poilievre as their leader last month.

Postscipt (from the organizers)
“WE MADE HISTORY
Across Canada, 20,000 people in 70 communities took to the streets to DRAW THE LINE for People, for Peace, and for the Planet.
Here in Ottawa–Gatineau, 2,000 of you marched together, making our voices impossible to ignore.
WHY WE MARCHED
On September 20, people across Ottawa–Gatineau — and across the world — stood together to draw the line against systems that put profit before people and the planet.
This march was about more than a single day of protest. It’s the beginning of a long-term, coast-to-coast alliance: labour unions, Indigenous movements, migrant justice organizations, climate activists, seniors, faith groups, and peace advocates are uniting to defeat the anti-people agenda we are up against.
Our governments must choose: side with the people, or side with the billionaires.”

In The Dawn of Everything, Graeber and Wengrow argue that the development of agriculture has not always resulted in hierarchical civilizations and offer many examples where other social structures have emerged and thrived. Off topic for your search but fascinating nonetheless.

Pretty good reference list at the end of this paper: good for some deep dives.
I notice Gowdy doesn’t mention the Bronze Age collapse (~1100 BCE) but many believe climate change (mainly droughts if I recall) played a significant role there as well. Could be a useful thread to follow.

I’ve written to the NCC to voice my opposition to their allowing Sean Feucht to perform on NCC grounds.

Message to NCC:
“It appears that a permit has been issued to the MAGA rock musician Sean Feucht allowing him to perform at a concert in Jacques Cartier park later this month.
Feucht, under the guise of a Christian minister regularlly speaks out against the LBGTQ +, aboriginal, and minority communities.
A permit for a similar concert in Halifax has been revoked by Parks Canada.
Please revoke this permit.”

Whatever happened to climate change?
During the last Canadian election?—Off the agenda.
At the G7?—Nary a mention.
And at the annual COP climate meetings?—Virtually torpedoed by Big Oil.
Even Greta is off doing other things.
Yet the scientific reports keep piling up, atmospheric CO2 levels have breached 430 ppm and are accelerating, oceans are heating up at an alarming rate.
What will it take to return climate change to front and centre on the world’s agenda?

Interesting Mark Carney tidbit: It turns out he endorsed the progressive candidate Catherine McKenney in the last Ottawa city mayoral contest. (Although McKenney lost to Mark Sutcliffe, she went on to win the Ottawa Centre riding for the NDP in the recent provincial election.)
Carney’s support for McKenney demonstrates, to me at least, that he is more of a friend of progressive values than I had previously thought.

I emailed them to complain that there’s no policy or platform information on their website.

Hi,
I just visited your website. I don’t see any extensive policy positions there. How can I determine if I want to cast my vote for the NDP if I cannot find details of your program/platform?
It is critical that you post detailed policy information on your website, since most traditional media do not provide extensive coverage of opposition parties.

A guilty pleasure for many Canadians is fresh berries in winter. These generally come fom the US.
But frozen berries are nutritionally just as good—some say better because they are flash frozen.
And they’re Canadian.
Bring it home.

Excellent initiative! The sooner the better.
Freeland said if she’s chosen as leader of the governing Liberal Party, she would hold a summit — bringing together leaders from Mexico, Denmark, Panama and the European Union — the day she’s sworn in as prime minister.

For those receiving the $200 cheque from Doug Ford, coming soon apparently, consider donating some or all of it to your local food bank if you can. Food banks and those who depend on them are desparate this year, caught between exploding demand and rising food costs.
Here’s a link to the Ottawa Food Bank.

Your post reminds me of that old definition of an egghead: a man educated beyond his intelligence.

BREAKING NEWS
———————-
In response to the threat of an American imposed 25% tarrif on Ontario goods, Ontario Premier Doug Ford said that he would immediately widen Highway 401 to 32 lanes and allow kids to sell booze from stands in their front lawns.
“That’ll fix it, folks,” he said.
Critics were quick to point out that with the expropriations for the highway, there would be far fewer front lawns to sell booze from.
“Folks. Folks.” He replied. “Keep that up and I’ll take your bike away.”

People keep telling me to ‘avoid the echo chamber’ and make an effort to understand what the other side is up to.
But hold on a minute. Why should we spend a single one of our precious daily seconds descending into rabbit holes of hate and conspiracy, of racism and deceit, of grift and corruption, of the rejection of science and rationality, of pandering to oligarchs, of mean spiritedness?
They can have all that. We’ll take a pass.
