    Seriously, why are news outlets even allowed to push political ads during an election? This should count against the party’s donations, not be considered “volunteering”.

    That haircut makes him look like a little boy, or my aunt Helene.

    Being proud and serious are very overrated traits, especially when it comes to a country and its government.

    Let’s see some goofy and aloof odd balls, the kind of people capable of tripping over their own feet yet do a proper job at managing a country.

      Borris Johnson, Javier Milei, Donald Trump… 😬

      Oddballs don’t really have the best track records recently.

      With the whole buy Canadian thing is this not a US publication masquerading as a Canadian one?

      I’m also a subscriber - and that was my initial reaction as well - but perhaps if they can get more Canadians (to whom that ad appeals) reading the Globe instead of Postmedia, we end up in a better place?

      I still think it’s a bad look if they just ran partisan ads supporting a specific party - I wonder how many stories they ran as promotional / paid content? Hopefully a blend of stories?

        I’m with you on that. I think compared to some other major Canadian publications, G&M is definitely the paper to read.
