Of all the hardcore political junkies I know/follow on Twitter/Facebook/elsewhere, I honestly don’t remember anyone picking Moe to win. I would say about 60% picked Chevy, 30% picked Koch (including me) and 10% picked Wyant. True, that might also be because Moe doesn’t seem very memorable in general (I heard him described as “where charisma […]

Friday Fun Links – @ryanmeili In Review: A #skndpldr A Decade in the Making? #skpoli
I first got seriously involved with the Sask NDP after Ryan Meili announced as a candidate in the party’s 2009 Leadership contest. For that reason, I thought it might be useful for anyone reading this who is just getting involved with the Sask NDP now because of Ryan (or his opponent or simply because they’re […]
First Lines From My First Blog Post In Every Month of 2017
This is one of my favourite posts of the year. I love how it randomly ends up capturing so many highlights of the year, personal and otherwise… January – “Thirty Canadian artists playing covers of thirty Tragically Hip songs to celebrate thirty years of the Hip as part of a 4-hour radio special on the first […]

Music Monday – “I wish I had carved my bad poetry/Into your back while you were asleep/A little something to remind you of me/A little something for her to hold on to”
I’m fascinated by coincidences and have had a few recently… Went to a housewarming party this weekend and a guy mentions the completely random fact that they ended up sitting next to a previous owner of their Regina home in a bar in Saskatoon, never having met him before! The same housewarming party was hosted […]
