    Short Cuts
    #170 Doug Life
    We have reached peak batshit in the Ontario election. Ford suing Ford, octogenarians in "physical altercations" with seventh-graders while illegally campaigning at schools, loopy NDP candidates – and that's just this week.  And no one, NO ONE, can believe that Trump is following through on his campaign promise to dissolve NAFTA.

    Correction: This show originally misattributed comments made about Venezuela to Gail Vaz Oxlade. The Toronto Sun alleges those comments to have come from Joel Harden. We regret the error.
