Well, here we are again together…our second New Year’s Eve, you and I. It’s been a huge privilege for me to have you here. I’m perpetually overwhelmed by the number of you that come here and the attention my thoughts are given by so many various other members of the media and public. When I [...]

Last year I received a fairly lengthy list of personal and professional questions that people asked and I included them in an end-of-year-post. Readers came up with all sorts of interesting, entertaining and sometimes tough questions. I’ve received many this year as well, but I thought, instead of just posting them and answering only those, [...]

While sifting through the information provided to me on ‘The Basi Files’ and related documents, I noticed that Gregor Robertson’s viral ‘REIGN OF ERROR’ continues.

I’d like you to recall an exclusive interview granted to my former 24hours colleague Bill Tieleman by RCMP Superintendent Kevin deBruyckere.

But desperate politicians adopt desperate measures. Last week, as the pressure grew, [...]

Before we get started, some thoughts and an explanation… Firstly, I am sorry about the delay in getting this latest post out, but I painstakingly review every Basi memo and am careful with each revealing chapter. You will read THREE below. If I have not had time to review them, plus the plethora of associated [...]

For as much as I can appreciate your interest in reading more of Dave Basi’s private thoughts from the time period covering the last few, critical months of the sale of BC Rail to CN, you must understand that the information is very sensitive with major implications, thus I will not release it until I [...]

For those who missed this story, last week I obtained confidential correspondence between the Financial Institutions Commission of British Columbia (FICOM) CEO Carolyn Rogers and a complainant.
