Random Thoughts on 2013 #tedxregina #yqr (and My Hypothetical TED Talk Topics)

Went to TEDxRegina yesterday and honestly, my thoughts on the afternoon, with a couple exceptions, are pretty much the same as my thoughts on the inaugural one in 2012. Perhaps because I usually cherry-pick the best TEDTalks when watching online, both years I’ve gone in expecting all TEDx talks will be stellar too. But honestly, […]

Eight Arrested After Brawl at Kindergarten Graduation

I hope this doesn’t happen at Pace’s kindergarten graduation in a couple weeks! 😉 This is my favourite quote from an article that’s full of all kinds of crazy details (“shots were not fired but someone did pick up a hammer”.)

Refer Madness

Over the years, I’ve occasionally posted about some of the search terms that were bringing people to my blog. I did this once a few months after starting my blog in 2006 and again during the 2009 NDP Leadership Race and probably a few other times as well. I thought it might be interesting to re-visit the […]

A Partial and Incomplete List of Reasons the NDP Lost The BC Election #skpoli #bcpoli #ndp

I went to a noon hour presentation at the Johnson-Shoyama School of Public Policy on “The BC Election and What It Means For Saskatchewan“. One presenter got a good laugh off the bat joking about how he had to tear up his speaking notes in light of the stunning come-from-behind victory of the Liberals […]
