    The simple answer to this is that our democracy has degraded to finding problems rather than finding solutions. Problems are easy, while solutions are hard… but problems get clicks. Maybe it’s a good thing that Google and Meta banned Canadian journalism because it means that we can go back to more in-depth journalism?

      I don’t think the ban will last though. They caved to Australia after a few days and they’re even smaller than we are.

      This is a good step.

      We need to go back to speaking and reporting more about the weather, geography and its impact in shaping culture. In a “post truth” era it’s a good unifier, harder to manipulate and dads like it.
