Leslyn Lewis joins the race, Brown and Charest to announce Conservative leadership runs

TORONTO – Jean Charest is running for the leadership of the Conservative Party, Patrick Brown ready to do so. It promises to be a very crowded race for the leadership of the Canadian right, very far from the hypothesis of de facto coronation imagined after the announcement of the candidacy of Pierre Poilievre and the lack, at least up to this point, of credible alternatives to the Carlton deputy. Now, if there are no last-minute waivers, the succession of Erin O’Toole promises to be a three-way race with uncertain outcomes. Leslyn Lewis, the possible outsider, today confirmed her candidacy.

Supply and Demand, during Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the pandemic caused by Covid 19, forcing people to change their priorities. Trips to the restaurants, vacations to exotic places, watching movies in the big screen took a back seat. They redirected their money and whatever else they earned working from home to renovating their dwellings to double as an office and classroom, purchasing newer laptops and newer models of mobiles, putting new printers in their bedrooms to make for more efficient work output at home, getting gym equipment for fitness because gyms were closed, and furnishing their kitchens with mixers, blenders and juice extractors to make their lives livable during a pandemic. They alternated their meals from being prepared in their kitchen to ordering from restaurants, delivered by any one of the following: Uber Eats, Grab, Skip the Dishes, Foodora, Door Dash, to name a few. Lifestyles changed.

Nota design: Pannolini per pappagalli

Sì, i pannolini per pappagalli esistono: su Internet ci sono dozzine di fornitori. C’è pure chi preferisce chiamarli più elegantemente “tute da volo”, anche se pare improbabile che il volatile possa staccarsi da terra così impacchettato. Ad ogni modo, questi accessori vengono incontro a una certa necessità di evitare che gli uccellini da casa sporchino troppo durante i loro momenti di libertà. Uno dei rivenditori spiega così i benefici del suo prodotto: “Semplice ed elegante, bello da indossare. Presenta cuciture squisite e pregevole fattura. Lascia che i tuoi uccelli vaghino per tutto il giorno senza che la casa venga completamente distrutta”… Read More in Corriere Canadese >>> 

Jean Charest si candida, Patrick Brown pronto a scendere in campo

TORONTO – Jean Charest (nella foto sopra) si candida alla guida del Partito Conservatore, Patrick Brown pronto a farlo. Si preannuncia una corsa molto affollata quella per la leadership della destra canadese, lontana dall’ipotesi di incoronazione de facto immaginata dopo l’annuncio della candidatura di Pierre Poilievre e la mancanza, almeno fino a quel punto, di alternative credibili al deputato di Carlton. Ora, se non dovessero arrivare rinunce dell’ultima ora, per la successione di Erin O’Toole si prospetta una corsa a tre dagli esiti incerti. Con Leslyn Lewis, la possibile outsider, che ieri ha confermato la propria candidatura…  Read More in Corriere Canadese >>>
