Must-reads: Christie Blatchford on the David Frost trial; Colby Cosh on what to do with murderers; Richard Gwyn on the global economy; Dan Gardner on young jihadis; Lorne Gunter on Tasers; Susan Riley on the cabinet shuffle.

Must-reads: John Robson on the Greyhound murder; Christie Blatchford on Adam van Koeverden; Rosie DiManno on the athletes’ village; Dan Gardner on our horrible future; Vaughn Palmer on the World Trade University; Lorne Gunter on the Wheat Board.

If anyone out there wants to learn more about Fred Phelps’ microcult, members of which are reportedly enroute to Winnipeg to picket Tim McLean’s funeral, I heartily recommend “Addicted to Hate”, which is fascinating, disturbing and – best of all – available online, free of charge.
