We're a week away from the Saskatchewan NDP convention and it's hard to believe how far Ryan and his campaign have come in a few short months. From being one of three people all working hard for the second place spot in the minds of voters, I would say that all indications – money raised, […]
My session this morning went okay but for the second time in less than a month, I was disappointed that I didn't “nail it” the way I wanted to. In library school, I used to regularly do presentations that kicked ass (he says humbly). One got a comment from a student who won Highest Academic […]
Ryan has a long and proven track record of accomplishing big goals at a relatively young age. This begins before any of the things he’s perhaps better known for with the fact that he not only completed medical school but earned an award for highest standing in his medical clerkship. I don’t want to get […]

It’s ironic that I’m sitting in Calgary airport as I type this, on my way to Montreal for the Canadian Library Association conference where I’ll be presenting on “Emerging Technology Use in Public Libraries” to the CLA’s Emerging Technology Interest Group. I’ll be part of a line-up that includes one of the best known tech-savvy […]
I don't know the exact moment when it happened – I know it was somewhere between my 10 year high school reunion (when I was 27) and now (I'm 35). But I started looking around and seeing that my former classmates – both from high school and University – have moved into some pretty prominent […]

[Edit: It's funny that I tell the story of calling someone else an idiot down below and here I was, originally titling this post “#9” when it was actually “#8”. The big difference is I can laugh at my stupidity and admit when I'm wrong.] When I watched the US election last year, some of […]
I’m taking a one day break from the “Top 10 Reasons I’m Supporting Ryan Meili” series of posts to promote a really cool idea. Last night, Ryan Meili’s campaign announced that it was launching a “Money Bomb“. If you’re not familiar with the concept, the term money bomb originated in the last US election as […]
One of Dwain Lingenfelter's greatest assets is also one of his greatest weaknesses. He's been a part of Saskatchewan's political scene from 1978 until 2000 when he moved to Calgary to become an executive with Nexen Oil. That's given him a great deal of experience in both politics and business during the past 30 years. […]
