Welcome!
You’ve stumbled on The Loyalist Papers, an upcoming series of meditations on the meaning of freedom, democracy, and good governance in the twenty-first century. Ours is a four-year-long reading project based on the set of American essays known as The Federalist Papers – re-read in the context of contemporary North American politics. Written from a Canadian perspective in loyalty to the Crown, here you’ll find only calm, cool, collected, small-c conservative thinking in the great tradition of Westminster parliamentary democracy. For revolutionary fervor and dropped U’s, you’ll have to look elsewhere.
The project officially launches with Our first paper on January 20, 2025 – Inauguration Day in the United States. Check back then! Meanwhile, you can learn more about the project here.
Thanks for visiting. ♛
