    Canada Should Warm to Trump’s Arctic Plans

    President Donald Trump’s Arctic strategy has been 500 years in the making. When Christopher Columbus set sail across the Atlantic in 1492, he intended to find a direct path from Europe to Asia. He didn’t, of course—but the first transatlantic explorer to sail under an English flag, John Cabot, tried again a few years later…

    Trump Is Making the Right Call in Leaving the WHO

    On his first day in office, President Donald Trump signed an executive order initiating the United States’ withdrawal from the World Health Organization, the United Nation’s agency charged with supporting global health.

    Protest Culture Is Annoying and Un-American

    Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., likes to argue that the “whole point” of protesting is to make people “uncomfortable.” Debate. Dissent. Running highly misleading political ads on TV. These are all part of our great tradition of political discourse. In this, as in so much else, the Democrat darling is incorrect. Taking to the streets to…

For those who’ve endured it, the warmth of collectivism feels like…
