Canada’s new governor general, Mary Simon, is poised to engage in her most challenging diplomatic mission yet
Problems within the hierarchy Not that her task ahead is easy: Simon has the unenviable job of breathing fresh life into the governor general’s office, which was maligned during Payette’s tenure. But for all the damage inflicted upon it, other more striking problems exist lower down the hierarchy. A peak behind the curtain at Rideau Hall reveals it is struggling to join a broader reckoning over systemic racism in Canada and how that manifests within the office itself.
Sovereignty from the North
This story was included in our November 2023 issue, devoted to some of the best writing The Walrus has published. You’ll find the rest of our selections here. Direct, unsparingly honest, and delivered with her signature wit, Mary Simon’s 2007 essay on Arctic sovereignty lays out Canada’s failings in the North. While many of the details have changed, her argument still holds up: the government isn’t doing enough. There continues to be a shortage of affordable, good-quality housing.

Naturopathy vs. Homeopathy
Aug 25, 2017 10:03:07 AM 0 I want to follow up last week's post to talk about the differences between naturopathy and homeopathy. I remember before starting the doctor of naturopathic medicine program, people would default to saying I was going to be a homeopath instead of a naturopath. These words are often mistakenly used interchangeably, but they are not the same thing! Naturopathic medicine uses a wide range of natural healing modalities to improve health.
