Bonkers dictator Kim Jong-Il and his spokespeople have said that the nuclear test set off by North Korea was only a pre-emptive strike to defend against American hostility. They might have warned us by showing us some of their national art, like the doozy at right, photographed recently at the national gallery in Pyongyang. (A translation of the poster reads: “Don’t mess with us. We will wipe the U.S. off the face of the earth!”)
Thanks for the assurances, guys.

We would like to acknowledge that The Varsity's office is built on the traditional territory of several First Nations, including the Huron-Wendat, the Petun First Nations, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit. Journalists have historically harmed Indigenous communities by overlooking their stories, contributing to stereotypes, and telling their stories without their input. Therefore, we make this acknowledgement as a starting point for our responsibility to tell those stories more accurately, critically, and in accordance with the wishes of Indigenous peoples.
