MAGGIE M, Editor, Wedgee-in-Chief, theWedge.LIVE My millennial and only son asked me during last year’s holidays, “Do you identify as white middle class male?” (Because I said something positive about one.) He could not see my face pursed out of shape as these words screeched in my ears over the airwaves. Everyone partaking in our … Continue reading
Phil Anders for theWedge.LIVE The world watched yesterday as these young Antifa activists assaulted an elderly woman screaming as loudly as lungs would permit, “Nazi scum,” inches from her ears, and blocking her way into hearing a federal candidate. The world did not side with the activists. The overwhelming dread at the video captured gives … Continue reading
By theWedge.LIVE The presumption by technocrats that humans are inadequate and need an upgrade is out in full regalia today. Watch this presentation by Elon Musk just aired. Watch the plan to insert “read and write” equipment in your brain. Humans are to become walking routers, servers, chips–with no control over what is downloaded into … Continue reading
By MAGGIE M, Publisher, Wedgee-in-Chief, theWedge.LIVE As I began my daily ritual, reading the printed word on the front porch at 7am, fog had settled in. An odd morning for July. It was a sign. It was a metaphor for the future of Canopy Growth. The news of the termination of its great leader, Bruce … Continue reading
By theWedge.LIVE The Wedge believes in freedom of speech wholeheartedly. Censorship at this time in history is out of control. This happened in the past in Germany and endures in China–so many places–but not here in the land of the free, in our beloved Canada. If we don’t preserve this right, Canada is done. Humanity … Continue reading
By Maggie M, Editor, Wedgee-in-Chief, theWedge.LIVE People are growing tired of being lectured to. Virtue signalling is beginning to backfire. It seems brands have also shifted their narrative from manufactured value wrapped in emotional narratives to espousing strange principles, or worse, social politics. When a company which produces commoditized little pieces of steel, Gillette, attempts … Continue reading
By Maggie M, Editor, Wedgee-in-Chief, theWedge.LIVE I woke this morning to an article extolling the virtues of mergers with ten recommendations. I almost spit my coffee. The first and most revolting acquisition recommended by Marketwatch writer, Jeff Reeves, was Amazon of Netflix. Let me make myself perfectly clear. The business world needs break-ups, not mergers–especially … Continue reading
By MAGGIE M, Editor, Wedgee-in-Chief, theWedge.LIVE “Aging gracefully,” we often hear from the lips of millions of women over fourty. They state this mantra as a goal, a tacit surrender to living life less fully, less visibly. I won’t elaborate on what this idiom–merely words–profoundly means. Not today. Evidence that women have “passed their turn … Continue reading
By MAGGIE M, Wedgee-in-Chief, Editor, theWedge.LIVE ❤️ TO SHARE click icons at story’s end The studies are piling up and it’s not good. Increasingly, they report screen-time is an addiction. Depression and suicide are increasing among the millennials and youths who spend most of their time on their devices. No age group is untouched further … Continue reading
by MAGGIE M, Wedgee-in-Chief, Editor, theWedge.LIVE I experience the birth of the cannabis industry somewhat like a character in C.S. Lewis’s dystopian, Alice in Wonderland. I am Alice drawn into a rabbit hole. One moment I am right-sized to elucidate a story–the next moment I am wrong-sized. The Cheshire Cat then reminds me that I … Continue reading

On this day, October 16, 1793, Marie Antoinette left her prison, her head shaved for the event ahead. She climbed onto the commoner’s tumbril, walked the scaffold and … Continue reading
By MAGGIE M, Editor, Wedgee-In-Chief, thewedge.LIVE Lest we forget, it is also the anniversary of D-Day in Normandy, France. Heavy day, heavy night with so much at stake. Global elites gather at the sumptuous Le Manoir Richelieu, La Malbaie, Quebec, while shops are shuttered in nearby Quebec City fearing violent protests against G7 and U.S. … Continue reading
By MAGGIE M, Wedgee-in-Chief, Editor, the wedge.LIVE The Trump-Trudeau-Trade-Tit-For-Tat war ensues with July 1st as the kick-off date to our tariffs imposed on U.S. imports into Canada on everything from steel and aluminium through the oddest categories, gherkin pickles and ball point pens. President Trump’s 25% tariff on Canadian steel and 10% on our aluminium … Continue reading
By MAGGIE M, Editor, the wedge.LIVE Canada now exerts its participation in its Southern neighbor’s exploration of space. Our PM corrects the first words by Neil Armstrong as he stepped off the module onto the lunar surface. Amstrong pronounced a string of words known around the world–a meme which united everyone. This 1969 historical moment … Continue reading
By MAGGIE M, Editor, the wedge.LIVE An unprecedented shift to “life as we know it” is already in play. It’s not coming. It’s here. And it is being installed incrementally under our noses. The dominoes are falling one after the other. A MICROCOSM IN THE MACROCOSM Imagine your refrigerator is on the cloud (that’s internet … Continue reading
By MAGGIE M, Editor, thewedge.LIVE — NOTE: This is a new category, “Opinion.” The wedge is super positive–no deaths, no crime, no politics; but, a little edginess once-in-awhile is valued by our readers. So, here it is. This writer has seen Amazon’s packages–that unmistakable smirk in its logo–stacked high at our Canada Post locations through … Continue reading
