   here are two definitions of “Poutine” on WR, both noted as regional. Definition 1 is région niçoise, 2 is Canadian. Doesn’t appear to be any connection between the two. Anyway, we had poutine on a visit to Quebec a while ago and liked it. There’s a local restaurant and micro-brewery here in St. Louis (Square One) that used to make a good one. I don’t know whether or not they still do; I suspect it may only be a fall/winter item.

   And it was delivered by actual journalists who did a quaint thing called fact checking.And there were hundreds of newspapers, many independently owned and operated.And delivering the news was seen as a public service, not just another way to make a buck.And all the media outlets were not owned by a handful of billionaires.And we weren’t up to our eyeballs in self-annointed “pundits” paid to talk convincingly for maybe 30 seconds on things they knew nothing about.

   I should know. I was there.

    We’ve been out of stock on that for a while now.
