Ontario Premier Doug Ford is pictured in Ottawa in September 2020. When challenged regarding their own record of failure, instead of taking individual responsibility, white men in charge excuse their loss of control as inevitable and gaslight the rest of us into believing it is completely and totally our fault, writes Erica Ifill.

Opinion | BY SUSAN RILEY | March 8, 2021
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, pictured March 3, 2021, in Ottawa. Effective communication, especially in the social media era, requires humility, humour and clarity. Instead, federal spokespeople—following the example of a leaden-footed prime minister—frequently deliver overly cautious and, ultimately, empty messages about everything from vaccines, to economic recovery. Even when this prime minister has nothing to hide, he manages to look shifty, writes Susan Riley.
