- Who's spying and who's lying. Accusations by Canada's intelligence overseers suggest some of our MPs cooperated with foreign agents to influence political outcomes. But it's all HUSH HUSH.
- Who should get fired for writing Deputry PM Chrystia Freeland's dystopia dissertation on the need for a new Capital Gains Tax. Freeland says failing to tweek the tax will lead to untold, unwanted pregnancies across the country!!
- BUT WAIT...there's good news.
- Bob just came off a grand trans Canada tour!
- Lindsay's looking forward to taking in a Sarah McLachlan concert
- Brad survived an encounter with his Auto Insurance company.
