Commentary
When the self-declared democratic socialist Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders recently cautioned his fellow citizens against rejoicing in the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and by doing so demonstrated class and kindness, he stood in stark contrast to a plethora of Canadians who gloated over the murder of the American activist, husband, and father. It was a sign something was deeply, morally “off,” especially in our country’s “educated” classes.
