Only in the Telegraph-Journal in New Brunswick do you find a heading like this:

~PCs, Grits battle over budget~

in what century is the Liberal Party referred to as the "Grits"? Answer = mid 1800s

Does anybody under 60 even know what it means?

Waste of time reading unless you're old, white and male, and right-wingnut.

@penpencilbrush 🙋‍♂️under 60; familiar with “Grits” as Liberal nickname. Can’t recall the last time I’ve seen it in use, mind you. 🤷‍♂️

@tantramar I feel like you should get a gold ⭐ star - unless you were a history major.😆 That would be an unfair advantage.
