The awkward couple
Economist.com | Canada and the United States
Canada is thus the land of the Tories, the counter-revolutionaries who jibbed at the American Whigs' revolt. While the American Declaration of Independence celebrates "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness", Canada's founding document promises "peace, order and good government".

Marriage not the key to happiness: study
The Globe and Mail

By Gary Shteyngart
Richler had the right perspective on death. He didn't like it. But it was central to his writing.
