Two Solitudes at War and Politics Collision in Canada
In a reflective column the author recalls protests between soldiers and civilians in Chilliwack BC, cites Michaelle Jean’s Ottawa speech ending Canada’s two solitudes, and contrasts Frank McKenna’s Vancouver and Toronto appearances with Prime Minister Paul Martin’s elusive schedule. The piece notes McKenna’s push toward leadership and a looming minority government, with intrigue over the Washington lobby scene and a missing PM appearance at a white‑glove dinner.
