Dispatch From the Front Lines: Putin's planes go poof

Also: PM Carney picks his man. And he is indeed a man. Plus, thoughts on what fame can do to people.

Hello, weekend warriors! Nice to see the calendar flip over, even if the weather in much of the country could still be a bit more summery. Hopefully soon.

While we all wait for the warmth and the sun, stay entertained by firing up our latest episode of The Line Podcast.

Also worth a watch: the latest On The Line, where Matt Gurney got to speak with three sharp experts on three very different fronts — Philippe Lagassé on the King’s visit, David Shipley on cybersecurity, and Scott Clancy on continental defence.
