TORONTO – Donald Trump may yet have the last laugh – at our expense. The MAGA puppeteer is setting the World’s Political and Economic Agenda and we either play along or be left out and literally pay in dollars and cents for being left out – “friendships, partnerships and alliances be damned”.

TORONTO – ’’Ma esattamente, cosa fanno?’’. Ho sentito per la prima volta questa espressione pronunciata dallo stimabile ex sindaco di North York e successivamente primo sindaco della città [amalgamata] di Toronto – Mel Lastman. Era “sorpreso” che l’allora ministro federale responsabile per gli anziani e l’edilizia abitativa si presentasse a Toronto per discutere gli obiettivi politici comuni tra i due organi legislativi, anche se si trattasse di un rapporto tipo topo ed elefante in termini di dimensioni, portata e risorse…
TORONTO – Just what do they do? I first heard this expression uttered in a fashion that only the redoubtable former mayor of North York and subsequently first Mayor of the [amalgamated] City of Toronto – Mel Lastman.
