I slipped over to the University today to sit in on the press conference for Ryan Meili's official launch of his campaign videos. The release of these videos was tied into the larger theme of the changing role of technology and especially its abiility to level the playing field in modern politics. (See his press […]
This song was going through my head while driving up to Saskatoon for the SLA conference last weekend…
My mom… Shea's mom… And our favourite mom of all…
This got sent around at my work so I thought I'd pass it on to readers elsewhere who may be interested in participating. It's a Regina-specific e-mail but people in other places across the country can register as well.—Hello Everyone!Regina's 11th Annual Commuter Challenge is coming soon.

When I first started following the NDP leadership race, I observed that there were many similarities between Ryan Meili and Barack Obama (and by extension, I saw Dwain Lingenfelter as playing the Hillary Clinton role – inevitable front-runner with name recognition and deep party ties being challenged by young upstart community organizer.)

Just trying to summarize points I'm seeing all over the place about Link's Water(hen)Gate scandal (kudos to KS on Facebook for the name) – on blogs, on CBC news stories and other wire stories from across Canada among various other sources.
