Mike's Daily Comment
Mike talks about the creepiness of using children in the political wars. John Johnston drops by to talk interest rates, the cost of borrowing and what’s next for stocks. Meanwhile Ozzie chimes in the “bottom” in real estate. And the shocking stat will really shock you.
Every time I hear another apologist for a human rights abusing, murdering dictator I need a “safe space.” What’s your trigger?
For most of the media it’s all Trump, all the time but that misses the bigger story. Whether we’re talking the Democratic Party in the US, Labour in the UK or the Yellow Vests in France the rise in extremism rivals anything on Trump’s scorecard.
I get a chuckle thinking of leading lights of big government debating the Nobel Prize winner, Milton Friedman. If it was a prize fight it wouldn’t last a round. Today is the birthday of who many call the greatest economist of the last 100 years.

Can “we” afford the federal deficit and debt? It doesn’t really matter because it will be our children and their children who’ll be paying the federal and provincial debt along with our skyrocketing Old Age Security payments and extra healthcare costs as the boomers age.
